Explorations 2002 MECC’S Arts E-Zine Explorations 2002 MECC’s Arts E-Zine The originality, creativity, technical skill, and enormous artistic vitality represented in these pages are something to be proud of. We hope that everyone will enjoy and appreciate the talents displayed. We especially want to thank all the students and alumni who entered the competition, and all of the people on campus in Student Services, the Wampler Library, and the staff of the Public Relations office who make this competition and the publication possible. Welcome to EXPLORATIONS, Mountain Empire Community College’s new student arts pub- lication. Current and former students were invited to submit work in five categories: Poetry, Short Story, Personal Essay, Photography, and Drawing. The materials recognized by the judges in each category are featured. EXPLORATIONS grew out of the tremendous talent and energy here at MECC and the strong existing tradition this college community has in the creative arts of literature, photography, and drawing. We invite you to enjoy our students’ creations, and if you are a MECC student or alumni, we invite you to submit your own work next year! Poetry SUZANNE U.

You were as rough boards, chafing my heart. You were like an empty glass, when I was thirsty. You were buttermilk, soured and curdled. You were like an aspirin, stuck in my throat. You were as fog, lingering damp and dark. You were like a king, wielding a bloody septor. You were as attentive and perceptive as a door. You were the boogie man, I still watch for. You are chocolate savored off my fingers. You are a marijuana euphoria. You are as my oldest blue jeans. You are yellow flowers and butterflies. You are a stoic building, full of memories. You are like a panther, prowling, confidently. You are the warm blanket air, caressing my shoulders. You are like a patiently listening grandmother. You are a hurled into the yonder boomerang. You were the delight of an unexpected gift. You are as comfortable as flannel pajamas. You were like a vacuum, grabbing at the answers. You are a contradiction of ancestors. You are like a loom, spinning ideas. You are as consumed as a scientist for a cure. You are defensive as a cat with kittens. You were/are the yin to my yang. You are parts of me, flashing in neon. 12 Poetry 3rd Place Jessica Moore Embodied Elements Fog, wind and sea, Which one of these is me. The elements of nature that form myself, Under my skin lies that wealth. Fog is a silent cloud, That makes all noise become loud. So distant but yet close, Becomes interesting only to most. The wind that is loud and unseen, Rustles the leaves as friend or fiend. Disappears when things aren’t to its liking, Yet can be friends with a courageous Viking. Sea that is dangerous and rough, But underneath is full of interesting stuff. Can be gentle if you go with the flow, Beware if the wrong seeds you sow. The fog that I am, Ghost of a cloud you cannot ram. I am the wind so strong, So I can take out all wrong. Blue and green sea am I, There are times even it can be shy. Elements that have existed all though time, Are now embodied in my soul, heart and mind. 13 Poetry Honorable Mention Bradley Davis Dear Dad I am a grown man now and I gotta tell ya I wouldn’t be here without you. You have taught me honesty, humility, and honor.

  • TOEJAMANDEARL - Round 2
    TOEJAMANDEARL - Round 2 1. The audio of the 1995 game Quest for Fame is based on works by these people. Members of the New Order Nation, including Helga, kidnap these people in a game whose projectiles include compact discs. These people are unlocked as playable characters as part of the Nipmuc High School level, which also includes a cover of Mott the Hoople’s “All the Young Dudes.” That game, which includes Tom Hamilton and all other people of this type, is the first dedicated spin-off of the Guitar Hero series. The rail shooter Revolution X stars, for 10 points, what group of musicians that includes Joe Perry and Steven Tyler? ANSWER: the members of Aerosmith 2. One activity in this game ideally requires waiting for a certain number on-screen to reach 1,484 and ignoring the player character entirely. Completing one task in this game causes a mole to appear if it’s done on the last possible attempt. A special controller for playing this game on the Atari 2600 has no joystick and just three buttons, which echoes its arcade control scheme. One object in this game can be deliberately thrown off the screen, which will kill a bird. Several activities in this game have between 42 and 45 degrees as optimal launch angles. For 10 points, name this Konami game that begins with a button-mashing 100-yard-dash. ANSWER: Track & Field 3. A trilogy of light-gun shooters whose titles start with this word center on “Rage” and “Smarty,” a pair of police officers.
