Music 101 - EXAM - Thursday 12pm

"Welcome to your last class for Music 101 dudes. You don't have class next week because classes finish on Wednesday. The day, not the student. Today is your EXAM. I hope you brought a pen. In case you didn't, there's some on the table in the corner. Please sit down at one of the desks. Before we start, I've got a few things to say.

Tonight is the Band recital, in here at 6pm. Be sure to stop by and support your fellow music dudes. There will be free punch and pie.

Lane Kim, Lily Evans and Rose Tyler - I never got your 'Your Life As A Movie' projects. Leave them with me today or you'll fail that project.

Okay dudes, here's the exam. Remember - no talking and no cheating. I think you can all do it without cheating. You've got the whole class time to do it, and you can leave once you hand in your paper to me. You can turn over your exam paper and start work."

[OOC: This thread will be open until Monday. If your character does not show by then, they will fail the subject. If you are reading this after Monday and have an RL reason for not showing (and are willing to give your character a *suitable* IC reason for not taking the exam), please contact me and we can arrange a supplementary exam.]

Dum Dum Doo Da
Dee Dee Dum Doo
Da Dee Doo Da Da
Dum Dum Doo Doo

Being a friend is most important to this person but they don't want to over do it too much, since that would be crazy. Friends just love giving their good friends gifts, even if they're easy, simple but still full of love.

3. Pick a movie of your choice and discuss its soundtrack (either the official one or the music in the movie). Point out what was hot and what was not.

The soundtrack of 'War of the Worlds' was just amazing, and each song held it's own vibrant yet dark air. The composer did such a good job matching up songs to the different scenes in the movie, that each movie watcher felt his/her emotions wrapped up with the characters in the specific scenes, such as "Ray and Rachel"; the song is about Father and Daughter making their survival among the aliens that are intent on killing them all off.

What was hot: Tom Cruise The music, in general. What was not: Them damn aliens!

4. What do you think would happen to the world if music disappeared? Explain your answer. [extra credit: use pictures] The world without music?

We would end up like him (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v432/sensen1/asteroid/Rosebud/4419.jpg) [the one on the right, mind you]. Music has always been a form of expression and without it some of us would be as retarded as a rock.

5. Giraffes. Musical creatures or not? Why?

I guess they could be? All animals make their own distinct sounds, so it wouldn't be impossible.

EXTRA CREDIT QUESTION: Who took the Bomp from the Bompalompalomp? I say, the musical giraffes!
