When We Were Together Foreword The OCHS Magazine of Literature and Art is a student-run publication to honor student art and to connect over the universal emotions of love, loss, and teenage angst. This year is distinct in many ways, with the sudden death of a member of our study body and other instances of grief, big and small. Naturally we seek community to experience these emotions together, to delight in the wonderfully mundane moments of life, and to viscerally endure the painful. Please do not feel the need to read memorial pieces if they will negatively impact your well-being. After 3 years of working with Mr. Hellman and the other lovely editors, I am pleased to present my final edition of the magazine; we hope you enjoy reading it as much as we did curating it. -Kristen Burris Editors: Jakob Anderson Jessica Niemetz Kristen Burris Jared Reeves Erin Esterburg Sarah Trusty Alec Hankins Advisor: Greg Hellman The ceramic figure on our front cover, “Confidence” and back cover “Confidence (reverse)” was created by Kelby Beyer.

Together and Apart By Spencer Rosenau and Kristen Burris We breathe We live irrationally in our rational flesh Our complex feelings are unique ​ ​ To ourselves and our experiences And our background, and our history To our lives To say, “I feel more relaxed not going to school ​ Because there’s that threat of school shootings” ​ To feel There’s also anxiety about death About planning for the future ​ A space to wrestle with your own insecurities ​ There’s, of course A loneliness A personal struggle We cut our comfort from different cloth Solace within our emotions From a knowledge of others Companionship Memory To say “Coffee reminds me of my dad” ​ ​ To feel there’s nostalgia ​ ​ ​ Voting for the first time A sense of control Like I have a hand in what’s going on in the world To know People are feeling what I feel One and the same Together, and apart [Bolded portions are excerpts from Kristen’s responses in a StoryCorps interview conducted by ​ ​ Spencer] 4 5 Two Bendy Straws and a Chocolate Dust Ring By Wynter Davis The day I learned what it was like to love is engraved into my mind. Like initials engraved into a tree, like paint on a canvas, it is forever. We laughed, my great grandma and I. The puzzle was not going to build itself, so we sat. Our backs up against the brick fireplace behind us and a very large, dark wood table in front of us. The gold and navy Nesquik container, placed perfectly on the countertop across the room, was calling out to me. “Oh how I could just die for a glass of that chocolate milk,” I thought to myself. We mixed the chocolate powder with a glass of milk. Chocolate dust spilled over onto the counter top, leaving a clean ring where the cup was. It was chocolate milk that filled the glass to the brim while two bendy straws flopped over the edge of the glass, dripping drops of milk onto the dark wood. It was chocolate milk that we drank while puzzle pieces were scattered, reaching all ends of the table, and confusing all ends of my mind. It was chocolate milk that we drank when I first learned what it was like to love. Reaching to only just below her ear, her light grey hair shimmered and sparkled in the light. She had the most pure and loving smile, bearing her beautifully straight and white teeth to express the utmost love possible. She had the most subtle wink, but even nine years later I can remember that wink, and the love I felt with it. Her eyes shined with a lifetime of experience, wisdom, love. Her hands, crafted from vulnerability and passion, had lived over eighty years, touching the world ever-so-softly with kindness and magic. Her beauty radiated from within, and gracefully overflowed into the world, painting the sky with purity and the soil with love. I vulnerably left my heart and soul open, and she accepted all of me with open arms. She taught me about life, and what it means to love. She took a hold of the wild child that I am and showed me the magic of living. And then, she forgot me. Like a train derailing, her memory went fast and all at once. Crashing and burning, she forgot about all the lives she touched, and the lives she made worth living. She forgot about the life that she lived. After having forgotten about me for about a year, there was one time that was different, where she saw me. She slowly walked over. The confused and puzzled look that was plastered across her face broke my heart. In a living room that she had been in before, in a house that should have been nothing but familiar to her, she looked scared, and she decided to sit by me as if I was familiarity in the utmost unfamiliar situation. It only took a second before she glanced at me and smiled. “You are so beautiful,” she said. Taken aback, I hesitated only slightly before I replied, “Thank you. You are beautiful too, Grandma.” “I love you so much,” she continued. “And I love you, Grandma,” I spoke, with nothing but the truth.

    Subjectivity in American Popular Metal: Contemporary Gothic, the Body, the Grotesque, and the Child

    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Glasgow Theses Service Subjectivity In American Popular Metal: Contemporary Gothic, The Body, The Grotesque, and The Child. Sara Ann Thomas MA (Hons) Submitted in fulfilment for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Arts University of Glasgow January 2009 © Sara Thomas 2009 Abstract This thesis examines the subject in Popular American Metal music and culture during the period 1994-2004, concentrating on key artists of the period: Korn, Slipknot, Marilyn Manson, Nine Inch Nails, Tura Satana and My Ruin. Starting from the premise that the subject is consistently portrayed as being at a time of crisis, the thesis draws on textual analysis as an under appreciated approach to popular music, supplemented by theories of stardom in order to examine subjectivity. The study is situated in the context of the growing area of the contemporary gothic, and produces a model of subjectivity specific to this period: the contemporary gothic subject. This model is then used throughout to explore recurrent themes and richly symbolic elements of the music and culture: the body, pain and violence, the grotesque and the monstrous, and the figure of the child, representing a usage of the contemporary gothic that has not previously been attempted. Attention is also paid throughout to the specific late capitalist American cultural context in which the work of these artists is situated, and gives attention to the contradictions inherent in a musical form which is couched in commodity culture but which is highly invested in notions of the ‘Alternative’. In the first chapter I propose the model of the contemporary gothic subject for application to the work of Popular Metal artists of the period, drawing on established theories of the contemporary gothic and Michel Foucault’s theory of confession.

The Homeopathic Proving of Choloepus didactylus 2 Latin Name Choloepus didactylus. Common Names Two-toed sloth. Hoffmann's two-toed sloth. Linnaeus's two-toed sloth. Taxonomy Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Chordata Class: Mammalia Order: Pilosa Suborder: Folivora Family: Choloepodidae Genus: Choloepus Sophia Müller, Unsplash(1) About (1, 2) The remedy was prepared from a hair sample and run-up to the 30th centesimal potency by the proving group led by Mani Norland and John Morgan. There were 13 female and 2 male provers; each taking a single dose. The proving was fully supervised for a period of 2 months. The diaries were then collated and repertorised by Luke Norland. Whilst the name "sloth" means lazy or idle, the slow movements of this mammal are a useful adaptation for surviving on a low-energy diet of leaves. They are so solitary in their nature that it is even uncommon for two to be found together in the same tree. The sloth spends almost its entire life, including eating, sleeping, mating, and giving birth, hanging upside down from tree branches. However, when the time comes for urination and defecation they slowly make their way to the ground. This seems to be rather a behavioural quirk, as whilst earthbound they are almost defenceless. Their shaggy coat has grooved hair which plays host to a symbiotic green algae, providing both camouflage and nutrients.

    When I Open My Eyes, I'm Floating in the Air in an Inky, Black Void. the Air Feels Cold to the Touch, My Body Shivering As I Instinctively Hugged Myself

    When I open my eyes, I'm floating in the air in an inky, black void. The air feels cold to the touch, my body shivering as I instinctively hugged myself. My first thought was that this was an awfully vivid nightmare and that someone must have left the AC on overnight. I was more than a little alarmed when I wasn't quite waking up, and that pinching myself had about the same amount of pain as it would if I did it normally. A single star twinkled into existence in the empty void, far and away from reach. Then another. And another. Soon, the emptiness was full of shining stars, and I found myself staring in wonder. I had momentarily forgotten about the biting cold at this breath-taking sight before a wooden door slammed itself into my face, making me fall over and land on a tile ground. I'm pretty sure that wasn't there before. Also, OW. Standing up and not having much better to do, I opened the door. Inside was a room with several televisions stacked on top of each other, with a short figure wrapped in a blanket playing on an old NES while seven different games played out on the screen. They turned around and looked at me, blinking twice with a piece of pocky in their mouth. I stared at her. She stared back at me. Then she picked up a controller laying on the floor and offered it to me. "Want to play?" "So you've been here all alone?" I asked, staring at her in confusion, holding the controller as I sat nearby.
