Seniors-- Thursday (11-18) lab exercise on The Portable Phonograph














Consider today's exercise a curious mixture of themes presented in the somber short story, The Portable Phonograph, and a movie called The Bucket List, a 2009 film in which two older men make a list of things they want to do before they die or "kick the bucket."

I'd like to know what you consider important.


Here's the dream scenario: before you meet your maker, you will be granted all of these last wishes.


Make your choices, and briefly explain in a sentence or two.

Think. Have some fun if you'd like. But remember that things are more humorous when there is at least a hint of truth in the humor.

Post before Saturday if you don't finish in class today.

1. final thing you'd like to read (OK, so even if you don't like to read, this is your final reading of anything, so with that in mind, seriously consider your decision)

2. final song that you'd like to hear

3. movie or tv show that you'll watch one last time

4. final website you'll visit (www.schoolsville.blogspot.com, of course!)

5. final meal

6. place you'd like to visit

7. you get instant knowledge on any one of life's great serious mysteries (try to make this one serious, saving the more clever responses to #8)

8. you get instant knowledge on any one of life's great head-scratchers (make this humorous, like why do people think The Office is funny?)

9. other than any of the above, one last activity you'd like to do

10. now this isn't a wish, but tell me a prized possession that you would literally guard with your life and maybe a "comfortable piece of lead pipe " like Dr. Jenkins in The Portable Phonograph

1. The final book I would read would be Inkspell because of the breath-taking descriptions of action, adventure, and fantasy. This is the book that greatly influenced my love for everything mystical. If I could only get lost in a book one more time, I would want to get lost in Ombra surrounded by fire-eaters, fairies, and the Wayless Woods.
2. It would be hard to choose the last song I would ever hear because I have such a variety of favorite music. If I had to choose thought, it would probably be “Love is the Weapon” by Nevershoutnever because it’s upbeat. It would also be irionic because one of the lines is “I’d love this world before it implodes,” so it would be a good laugh.
3. It may be cliché, but the last TV show I would watch is most likely family guy. It’s just too funny to not enjoy.
4. The last website I would visit would be FML because I would have the ultimate entry with “I’m going to die. FML”
5. My last meal would definitely have to be my mom’s seafood linguini with a diet coke. It’s absolutely to die for.
6. I would like to visit a giant field of sunflowers on a warm, breezy summer day where I can lay below them and eat their seeds.
7. Is there life on other planets?
8. What genius invented spam (the fake meat in a can)?
9. I would like to participate in the Free Hugs Campaign created by Juan Mann. I would wear a free hugs shirt, have a free hugs sign, and run around sharing one of the best gifts.
10. A possession I would guard with my life would have to be my memory box. This box has all the cards I ever received, poems or songs I was given, flowers, pictures, memories of my childhood, and memories I’ve recently made. I cannot live without my memory box.

1. I would like to read the Hunger Games series. I have been meaning to for a long time but I have never had a chance.
2. The last song I would like to hear would be The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot by Brand New.
3. Movie wise, I would watch the Breakfast Club. For television, I would watch True Blood.
4. I am a facebook creep so I would probably be on facebook.
5. BERTUCCIS.
6. I would love to go to Greece.
7. I would like to know why the most messed up people in this country are the ones leading it. I would like to know why someone would sell their soul for a piece of paper.
8. If a tree falls in the woods and a woman isn’t sound to hear it, is it still wrong?
9. I would like to go to petco and sit in the kitty room and play with the cats all day.
10. I don’t have any prized possessions, really. The only items that I have an attachment to would be my laptop, my cat, and my Michael Kor’s bag.

1. The final thing I would like to read is the newspaper. I know that makes me sound like an elderly person, but I like catching up on little local stories and big-time worldwide happenings.
2. The last song that I’d like to hear is International Dreambeat by Adebishi Shank because it’s a very up-beat song and would put me in a great, ecstatic mood!
3. That 70’s Show would definitely be the last TV show that I would watch. The characters of the show are so similar to my group of friends and I. They have the same sense of humor, always hang out in their one friend’s basement, are together all the time, do the most random activities, and are closer than the average group of friends. That is us exactly. This show would remind me of all the great memories I’ve had with my friends.
4. I would visit www.facebook.com as the final website.
5. As my final meal I would request my mom’s homemade spaghetti and meatballs with garlic bread. And apple cider. My favorite.
6. I’d like to re-visit Grand Caymen island because it had the most beautiful waters and is always sunny and warm.
7. If I could get instant knowledge on one of life’s serious mysteries I would want to know what happens once you die.
8. I’d like to know if dog’s get annoyed when people talk to them in that high-pitched “cutesy” voice.
9. As my last activity, I’d go over Shane’s house, sit on the chaise, watch LIFE, and eat spiced crème cookies with him.
10. There are only two prized possessions that I would guard with my life, my dog, Sedona and my pillow. My dog is my baby, I take her everywhere and she sleeps on my bed. She’s probably the most spoiled dog. Ever. I’ve had my pillow since I was three years old. I consider it a prized possession because it has such sentimental value and so many good memories go along with it.

1. Calvin and Hobbes has always had a special connection with me. Reading it brings a strong feeling of nostalgia with me taking me back to a time of simplicity.

2. I have always been a great fan of jazz, and if I were to have one last song to engulf me in its beauty, I would have to choose My Favorite Things by John Coltrane.

3. This was surprisingly a difficult choice. Deciding between The Never Ending Story and Eraserhead was quite a challenge, but I would have to go with Eraserhead due to its depth and strong atmospheric feel. Obviously I would have to choose the Simpsons for my last television show to watch due to my long history with Matt Groenings masterpiece.

4. I cant really say that the internet is very important to me; I just use it as a resource. I guess I would find out something interesting on Wikipedia.org

5. PIZZA.

6. Alaska’s beautiful landscape.

7. If the universe were to implode what would be there, and to follow up that question, what is nothing?

8. Why are people such jerks?

9. I would have to visit the amazons to be guided through an ayahuasca experience by a shaman.

10. I don’t consider myself a very materialistic person, but if I were to choose one item to guard dearly, I would choose my first possession ever, a stuffed kitten my sister gave to me when I first came home. If animals are possessions, I would take my Chihuahua Mia

1. The final thing I would like to re-read is Dear John. I would love to read Dear John later in my life one more time because it was a complete tearjerker and those books always will have my interest.
Another book I may read is Goodnight, Moon. It was one of my childhood favorites and I feel it would bring back good memories.

2. The final song I would like to hear is one of the hardest choices I would have to make. I love music and all types of it. So my choice would completely depend on the mood I’m in during my last moments of life. To pump me up the song I would have to choose is “I Like It” by Enrique Iglesias. I will never get tired of that song.

3. My favorite movie, Man On Fire.

4. Facebook. Everyone is addicted.

5. SUSHI, of course. It’s my favorite food. I could eat it everyday for the rest of my life.

7. Is there other life? Are we really the aliens?

8. If everyone knows UGGS are so ugly, why does EVERYONE wear them?

1. I would probably read some sort of play. If I couldn’t read a play, I would probably choose to read the book, “When Call the Heart” by Janette Oke.

2. In My Life by The Beatles. This is a perfect song to sum up one’s life.

3. The Sound of Music, my favorite movie/musical.

4. I would probably visit some type of news/email site, such as Yahoo. I could check my email one last time, read the last headlines of news and, for fun, check my horoscope.

5. Any meal that has pasta in it. I’m Italian and can’t live without pasta. And I would have red velvet cake for dessert, my favorite type of cake.

6. Europe; exactly where I still don’t know. Maybe England, Italy, Germany, or France. Europe is a very beautiful place to be.

7. Was God ever a child? If so, who were his parents? If he has no parents, then how did he come into existence? Always has boggled my mind.

8. How many licks does it take to get to the Tootsie Roll center of a Tootsie Pop? (Seriously, has this question ever been answered properly, or even at all?)

9. One final activity would be to spin my flag for colorguard in a marching band. I absolutely love to spin and marching band is a huge part of my life.

10. I would have to say that my prized possession would have to be the various pictures of my friends and family. These are the people that truly mean the most to me and I would want these pictures, and the people themselves, to be watched over and cared for when I pass on to the afterlife.

3. The final TV show I would watch would be an episode of Gilmore Girls. The final movie I would watch would be Around The Bend.
4. The final website I would go on would not be facebook, because I would want to die without having been too attached to it. I think I would go onto stumbleupon which is a website that takes you to a random interesting website sometimes about art or travel.
5. The final meal I would want to eat before I die is my mom’s delicious tuna casserole. Its one of those foods that puts me in a good place, it’s the most important comfort food to me.
6. The last place I would like to visit would be Thailand because it’s a place that I’ve always wanted to visit because it looks absolutely beautiful there.
7. I would like to know if there really is such a thing as infinity or eternity.

1. The Christmas Shoes by Donna VanLiere –This book is very sad but also very moving; I read it every holiday season.
2. I honestly couldn’t pick just one song to be the last I listen to. I have way too many favorites and it would probably really depend on my mood at the time.
3. Elf would be the last movie I need to watch because this has always been me and my best friend’s favorite movie that we watch at least once a week throughout the holiday season. We can quote every line and I can’t imagine watching any other movie for the last time.
4. www.facebook.com – I’d say this is pretty self explanatory. Do some final creeping and updating of statuses.
5. Chinese food (fried rice, chicken w/broccoli, and bbq chicken with a fortune cookie) –this is one of my absolute favorite meals that I’m always asking my parents to get for me.
6. Ireland –I’m part Irish and everything about the culture has always been something I love, I even used to Irish dance.
7. Why can’t everyone just get along and not fight/be mean to each other?
8. What causes headaches and the hiccups?
9. Go skiing somewhere in Colorado or Vermont/learn to surf in Hawaii –skiing is my favorite activity and makes me the happiest, also I’ve always wanted to learn to surf because the ocean is one of my favorite places to be.
10. My box of saved fortune cookie fortunes/my ipod –I cannot live without music, and I’ve been saving my fortunes for as long as I can remember.

1. To be completely honest I do enjoy reading a lot, that’s why I cant decide on just one book. My first would have to be The Catcher in the Rye, it has been the only book I have ever read in school where I got in trouble for reading ahead, and finishing before the rest of the class. I really enjoyed it because you could easily relate with Holden, and it taught me a lot about growing up. The second would have to be the Bible. Being raised Catholic had had a profound impact on who I am, and if I ever got the chance I would like to read the entire Bible, I feel that it is just something I should do before I die.
2. This is probably the hardest decision. I listen to music more than I do anything. If I really had to choose almost anything by Dave Matthews band would suffice.
3. Hocus Pocus hands down, it’s a Halloween movie I used to watch when I was younger. And it never fails that every time I watch it I am instantly taken back to my child hood, and I think right before you die you should at least be able to feel like a kid again one last time.
4. Youtube, where I listen to almost all of my music.
5. Mashed potatoes, broccoli salad, roast beef, and ice cream. My favorites.
6. Hawaii. I want to be able to see my feet in the water just once.
7. Probably if there is anything beyond our solar system, like in the universe iv always wondered what’s out there.
8. I would want to know why anyone in their right mind thinks southpark is funny iv tried watching it multiple times, and its never funny,
9. Skydiving. If I could free fall for at least 20 seconds my life would be complete, I think it has to be the most thrilling thing you can do.
10. My parents wedding album. When I was little I remember seeing how happy everyone looked and how well they were all getting along. I know its just pictures, but it’s the only pictures I’v seen of my entire family together, and that is very important to me.

1.The Twilight series or if just one then Breaking Dawn. I read all the books and a faithful twilight fan and of Edward.
2. Bike by Pink Floyd because that is just a crazy song and it’s the song that I learned to sing first before anything because my dad and I loved it so much!
3.Pink Panther because I know every line from that movie> I want to laugh and be happy before I would die because every time I watch that movie laugh at every scene.
4. Facebook because I would want to put a cute status up as my last one.
5. I would have all the fried foods I could. I would want blooming onion and sesame chicken. I also would want to try a shrimp, I’m deadly allergic to seafood and want to at least try it.
6. I would love to visit the Notre Dame in Paris again. It was the most beautiful building and most amazing place I have ever been too. I never wanted to leave and I was at peace with myself while I was in there. It was like if all my stress just left me.
7. Why do people have to die?
8. Why do girls think they look good in slutty clothes?
9. I need to graduate and get out of this school!
10. I would bring my shoe to the end of the earth and back. Only if you knew my shoe.

1. The Final thing that I would read would be a note from a loved one. It’d be something to cherish before it was time to pass on; one last feeling of the world.
2. The last song I would listen to might be “I Will Follow You into the Dark” by Death Cab for Cutie. It’d be a soft and ironic song that points out that no matter what happens when our souls leave our bodies, that you would follow your loved one wherever they go.
3. I’d have to watch Spongebob one more time. I’m not sure if I could really pick which episode, but it is my favorite cartoon.
4. I would probably sign into facebook one last time. Right on all my friends’ walls and post the status “is dead.” haha
5. My final meal would be a tough one! I’m really big into food. But I think any holiday meal like Christmas or Thanksgiving would be awesome; tons of different foods, and I love them all.
6. The last place I would visit would probably be Hawaii. I’ve always wanted to go there to surf, hike, mountain bike, and just see and experience everything there is there.
7. The instant knowledge I’d have to know is “Why don’t we all just realize the loving spirit that interconnects us and makes us one?”
8. “Why must girls all go to the bathroom at once?!”
9. Somehow write something very influential that people would remember me by.
10. My family and friends. Pretty much no “thing” in my life has that much sentimental value to kill over. Family and friends come first. Without them, I couldn’t find any enjoyment in things.
