Band homework

The International School of Kuala Lumpur provides an exceptional education that challenges each students to develop the attitudes, skills, knowledge and understanding to become highly successful, spirited, socially responsible (silence) global citizen.

The reason I chose to put the silence before global citizens because, the pause gives more dramatic effect to the sentence, in other words now there is a void because void is what people or audience members notice the most. Void is very powerful and it is very important so that your speaking isn't monotonous and it makes the listener have more attention to you when speaking or playing music. Putting silences, growing stronger (louder), gradually softer (quiet), playing an instrument and playing total nonsence then playing normally etc... Anything that draws a lot of attention is void, I might as well write (void) instead of (silence) and that is what the silence before the two words global citizen is... VOID

Vacation '10

What did I do on my vacation?
This winter vacation, I was lucky enough to get to see both my family in Lebanon, and also my uncle and his new wife in Dubai! We started in Dubai, and met up with my uncle and his wife. His wife had to work most of the time, but we still got to hang out with them. We got to stay at the Kempinski hotel, which was attached to The Mall of Dubai, as well as Ski Dubai, which was the biggest indoor ski in the world. The days we stayed in Dubai we toured a lot, but also looked back at where we used to live, and our old school A.S.D. (American School of Dubai). We soon left for Lebanon, where my mother's family surprised all of us at the airport, than took us to our hotel where we got settled in and had an authentic Lebanese dinner. I hadn't seen snow since I was very small, but got to see a bunch when we looked outside. Our hotel, "Faraya" was actually a ski lodge, so we got to play in the snow for the time we stayed there. Sadly, it was the first time in years that it took so long to snow, so we had to settle with the week old snow the entire time we were there, but it was still a lot of fun. After Faraya we went to the capital, Beruit. In Beruit we stayed at the Ramada hotel, and toured the city and shopping places. We only stayed for a few days because we left back for Dubai again. In Dubai, we had more time to spend with my uncle and his wife, and old friends. We also went back to see Burj Dubai, which is now the largest building in the world (it's not the Patronas Towers anymore!), it was so big and thin. I didn't go inside, but i did go inside Atlantis, which is also a big tourist attraction. There were so many new things built that were'nt there when I lived there, like palm island and many more shopping malls. Burj al Arab was something that was still there when I lived there, and is still such an important place. It is the only 7 star hotel in the world, only the most important and rich of people stay there.
