The Most Beautiful Voice I Have Ever Heard

Mariah Carey!
If asked "Who is the best singer?", I will think of her first as one of the best.

She is called a singer having the 7 octaves range. (actually she doesn't)
But before she became popular, she sang as chorus in back. That is surprising and dreadful at the same time! Because she can sing better than the main singer and there are so many talented people in the US who are not put spotlight on unluckily. She has been like stripping recently, and some fans hate that.

Anyways, I just say VOICE! Voice is all about M.Carey.

Characterisctics
・The most remarkable point for me is middle or head register (voice between normal voice and falsetto).
・So husky like a piece of string is tense and about to cut off. about to break but never.
・Very mellow and sad but heartwarming
・Very powerful modal voice (normal voice)
・Whistle voice (one of the great characteristics of her voice)

And I introduce her song to prove her voice is the most beautiful.

Two Psycological Movies I Want To Recommend

I like watching movies! One presentation  reminded me of two movies.

One is "es". The plot is that 24 people who participate in one psychological experiment for money are divided into 12 guards and 12 prisoners and live in jail for a week or more. They have fun at first because they can get much money just by living in each role even though they are in jail. But they are getting into the roles gradually like they are really in jail.

This is fiction but based on the fact of the experiment conducted in Stanford university.

Group psychology is sometimes so scary. Even though each person is ordinary and thinks their minds are under control, they are not because group psychology is not a simple total of people's minds. As a result, people can come up with something the individual from them doesn't ever. In addition, a role has huge influence on people. Even a very gentle person could be a beast in certain environment. So I thought the political mistake happened before people in that age knew it. And such fear comes to us suddenly.

Another is "The Wave". This is like a high school version of "es". Is it possible to do autocracy like Hitler?

That is the first question in one class of one high school. In the start of the experiment of it, students have little passion. But once the teacher as a dictator arranges things and orders the students to do them, his students are being an army and going too extreme.

Like "es", you can also see how people are subjected to the situation in this movie. Although the situation in this movie is open physically because this is a story in a high school class, I felt it was much close mentally. That is because a student can't escape if he/she wants to.

If you have a chance, watch!!

Who Am I ?

Who am I?
This question is so fundamental that it is hard to answer.
My basic profile is ; I was born in 1991, December 26th, and am 19 years old. Blood type B (maybe, I've never checked it). 5 kids of 2 older brothers and a older sister and younger one and me.

My personality is just free. And I always take my time. So not being free makes me nervous. I was sometimes absent from school and went for a walk or cycling around home when I was a high school student so that I could be free from any trouble. Actually, That is true even NOW. I love peace and freedom!!

I wll share my slides later.

Why did I decide to take this course? Do I like to write? Why or why not?

1. Why did I decide to take this course?
First, I decided to take this course because I took Mark's ARW class last year and thought him interesing and good. That is most important point for me because if I don't like the teacher, I will be bored of the class. Second, the reason I took this course is it is unique and made me want to think "who am I ?" again. Apart from other courses, this course is about more personal and subjective thing, or us. That differentiated this course from others. Whether I want to wrte about myself or not, I hope this will be a great chance to think again and improve myself.

2, Do I like to write? Why or why not?
No. Writing is just an assignment and used to bother me. First of all, I don't come up with the first letter in the first sentense. I coudn't write as other students could. And Basically, I'm not confident with something theoretical like if I think it's coherent, it's not from the eyes of others. So Academis essays were so hard for me.Whatever and whenever I write, I worry about if I can properly. That is trouble I've been faced with. Thus, I don't like to write.
But this couse is not quite academic, so it may change my image to writing hopefully.
