Sensory Experiences
It was a warm spring day after school. My friend and I just got back from school and we were walking to his house. We were both little and at the time having a Kool-Aid stand seemed like a perfect idea. So my friend and I got as much money together as possible. We did pretty good, I dont remember the exact amount of course but I do know it was more then 20 bucks. So anyway with the day being so hot that the sweat got our clothes so soaked that they stuck to our skin it seemed like the perfect plan. So we went to the store and got all kinds of colorful packets of Kool-Aid, red, purple, green, blue, even some colors that really have a name. We came back and start mixing all the radiant colors in glass jugs. The smell of fruit punch and many other flavors made our mouth water. With our jugs of fruity mixes and the feel of a fresh spring breeze on our face nothing was going to stop us. After about an hour of hearing cars rushing past with only a few stopping, we knew we needed to get bigger. With that in mind, we called up some friends and listening to the silent and anticipating sound of the phone ringing made the day seem all the longer. When we heard the common Hello? we wasted no time in telling every one else our plan. Before we knew it the empty drive way was filled with vans and cars of almost every color. Then one of our good friends pointed out our fatal flaw. The Kool-Aid was sugarless which left an incomplete sour taste. We all laughed and soon fixed our flaw. After that we had cars almost lined up to devour our fruitful glasses of refreshment.

We all walked back to the house with empty glasses and glowing smiles, and for that brief moment it seemed that this experience would never end.

    For many years, men have been portrayed as powerful figures and women as powerless or weak. “Romeo and Juliet” by Shakespeare, written in approximately 1595, demonstrates this dynamic. As one of the men in the play, Capulet is very powerful, while Juliet and Lady Capulet as women are powerless. Women’s rights were only introduced in the late 19th century and early 20th century, leaving women in the 16th century powerless and feeble to men. Accordingly, women are portrayed as powerless to men who are portrayed as powerful.…

    Every time we experience the world, we do so through our 5 senses- see it, hear it, taste it, smell it or feel it. It is only once we have taken that information in and processed it, that we apply a meaning to it. Sometimes the meaning we apply will be based on our previous contact and experiences. So if we have had an experience which led to some negative emotions - such as fear (or if we have learned a negative response from someone else) it is likely that when we come into contact with that same stimuli again, we will have the same negative feelings each time. What this tells us however, is that it is not the stimuli that creates the negative emotion (because this is just sensory information) but the meaning that has been applied to the sensory information. So next time somebody tells you "It's all in your head" you can agree with them!…

    The purpose of the present study is to examine the effects of cola type on taste perception. It was hypothesized that participants would correctly discriminate “different” cola pairs (e.g., Coke-Pepsi, C-P) to a greater extent than “same” cola pairs (e.g., Pepsi-Pepsi, P-P). The results support the hypothesis. Overall, a higher percentage of “different” cola pairs were correctly discriminated. In addition, it was hypothesized that participants would correctly identify “different” cola pairs to a greater extent than “same” cola pairs. Contrary to prediction, the results did not support the hypothesis. Overall, there were no differences.…
