Carnival Event

Everything had began magnificently the day I attended the renaissance fair. It was the first time I’d ever been to any festival of the sort, and the air was full of magic. At exactly 10:30 in the morning, the ceremony began. The King and Queen presented themselves atop the castle’s balcony to address their people. As the beautiful royals welcomed us into their kingdom, my heart beat erratically, and I crossed the threshold with my breath held. There were so many events that I wanted to see, and activities I wanted to try; I couldn’t wait to get inside. I wasn’t just an ordinary guest, however, I had a job to do. Carrying my instrument lightly with one hand, dressed as a princess and feeling important, I walked proudly through the bustling

The reason I have chosen this mix of words is because people listen to the music, enjoy the time they experience at the festival, laugh at the good times they have and hopefully love it so they will return! This statement positions the event as having a fun loving, carefree atmosphere that people will enjoy.

Families and friends welcome to Montgomery Village Middle School 8th grade promotional ceremony. Today we embark on a new chapter of our lives as we end our middle school careers. We’ve spent the past three years of our lives in this wonderful place. We were given the opportunity to grow and learn. Our teachers, one of our biggest supporters, the ones we have built relationships with. Our teachers have seen us grow. They have been our guiding hands throughout our middle school career. The teachers in this school deserve the world. They motivate us each and every one of us each day. Most of us were able to mature throughout middle careers. We’ve grown aware of our surroundings. We’re all well aware of what’s to come as we open the next chapter

It is a chaotic and unruly tradition wherein people exercise their freedom to indulge in the desires of the flesh. This can be in forms of alcoholism (which was abundant in the late 1840s), food, loud parties, and noise in general. All self-control and sobriety are forgotten in traditional carnivals; it is supreme madness. It is the perfect alibi for Montresor because everyone would be in the carnival. It would be so chaotic that no one would know where everyone else is.

Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, with great honour, I stand before you, today, on the opening night of the festival of Belonging, to express to you my ideas and opinions about why Belonging

As I mentioned earlier, I saw family groups entering the fair. These family groups consisted of generational members. To see older adults with the young, showed me that educating, sharing beliefs, and traditions still run deep in family groups. I enjoyed counting the children and see that the fair-goers were excited about this year’s fair. At the end of the fair, working in the parking lot, I saw lots of tired

“Final call girl’s four by eight-hundred-meter relay” called the official. The Ontario Track girl’s four by eight-meter team trooped up to lane one, in unison. I would not have wanted to be racing with anyone else but my relay family. We had trained all season for this one race. Every workout, asthma attack, tear, and shin splint has lead up to this one race to break a twenty year old school record. As we jogged with the official from the bullpen to the starting line, the crowd had uproars of excitement for the athletes. An immense smile grew across my face, not only from the ecstatic crowd, but from the anticipation to race. I approached the starting line, in the first lane, while my teammates arrayed along the fence with the other second,

The smell of carnival foods, music blasting through the tall speakers, and the crowd going wild is the first thing one hears as one enters the stadium. Shortly, one hears the sounds of clapping, stomping, and yelling as the Greek organizations compete for the grand prize, title of recognition, and bragging rights. People are dancing and supporting their favorite groups as they perform the routines the groups have been practicing for days. The final group performs and walks off stage drained with all the energy they put into the performance. Everyone crosses their fingers hoping their Greek organization won. Different colors, like salmon pink and apple green, surrounds the stadium representing the different groups. The MC (Mic Controller)

Arrayed in semi-formal attire students attended the 13th “Farewell Dance”, which was held in the Christopher Columbus Middle School gym. Each year a different theme is used and this year’s was “Circus”. The 278 member graduating class passed by a colorful, surreal entry of oversized lollipops before descending into the Big Top area.

Thus, most references are from the limited amount of available secondary literature and some push the boundary of the late medieval time period because studies relating the carnivalesque to social tensions are rare. This essay aims to be selective and handle a difficult topic in an interesting way, leading to the conclusion that indeed peasant activities in the carnivalesque certainly do reveal social tensions within their late medieval European experiences.

The fair is a narrative poem that explores the sensual bombardment of a travelling circus by recreating the sights, sounds, and smells visitors experience. The poem is split into two parts. The first, an atmospheric description of the thrill and excitement of the rides and the effects on the senses. Whilst the second takes a dramatic turn to the worst when a horrible fate befalls a poor young girl in a field beyond the fair.

After the religious ceremony ended we headed to my friend’s Uncle’s to continue the next stage of the quinceañera. Some of these galas are similar to weddings where you have the father putting on an enormous display of wealth and prosperity for vanity’s sake. For the not so financially well off, the celebration itself is sometimes considered the gift. I was privy to the latter. I was completely amazed at the turnout of family members. Not only the sheer numbers who attended, but the distance that some of them

While more and more visitors crowd into the Notting Hill Carnival (see Table 1), it’s not only useful to develop its societal impact through education and the improvement policy of better racial harmony (ibid), but also promote its economic

The carnivalesque can be understood as having arisen in response to a society which, as described by literary critic Jon Cook, was “ostensibly attached to hierarchy and its manifold religious and social rituals” (Cook 190). It appears as a revolution against these confining structures, working to reassert freedom. It works toward this end by both negating the values of
