Great Beginnings and Meaningful Endings
8: Begin with a description involving sounds.
Atmosphere: Rock Concert
Beginning:
The distortion of the guitar and the catchy rhythm of the noisy drums reverberated in the stadium. The ground trembled as the audience rocked along with the heavy music. No one cared about the humidity or stuffiness in the stadium as all eyes were fixed upon the heavily made-up rockers. The instruments screeched as the guitarists strummed violently and the vocalist’s hoarse screaming echoed throughout the stadium.
Ending:
As I sauntered along the isolated alleyway on my way home, I could still hear the heavy metal music ringing in my ears and began visualizing the band jamming back on stage. How I wished time would freeze and the music would go on forever. The experience of my first rock concert was etched deeply into my mind like a tattoo on a rockstar.
___________ Same theme; No. 6: Start with three powerful words Beginning:
Loud. Exhilarating. Deafening. These words came naturally to my mind whenever I listened to heavy metal. That concert I went to that night was an experience I would never forget. It was my very first rock concert with my own band. As I advanced on the high, black stage, a sudden loud applause could be heard and screams echoed through the whole stadium. I could feel my heart in my mouth as I stared at the masses. “Go to DMC! Go to DMC!”, the loud chanting was audible across the wide stadium. That got me even more anxious and tensed and my heart palpitated wildly like there was no tomorrow.
Ending:
It was an achievement – our very first world tour. I did not think it would be such a great accomplishment and pride was written all over my face. Our fans were heart-warming. Their endless support gave us the motivation to make the world tour a success. It was our first world tour and I doubt I’ll ever forget the overwhelming exuberance we had during the tour and the great satisfaction after we feel for successfully completing it
