4. Female voices talking over each other, my own voice, the radio.
5. The environment is very busy with conversation and music, with a very constant smooth background of the road and tires and blowing air.

7. The female voices, the radio, and the sound of tires on the ground.

Journal Entry #2

1.  Wednesday February 15th at 4pm in the News Hub at WRHU – Hofstra’s Radio Station

2.  The sounds farthest away from me are people chatting in the hall-since the door to the news hub is open and I can hear a door opening and closing outside the room

3.  The sounds that are at medium range are people typing on the computers and people chatting inside the news hub about what stories they are writing today

4.  The sound that is closest to me is the radio.  88.7 WRHU is playing in the news hub on the television that is right above the seat I am sitting in.

5.  There is a lot of commotion going on in the news hub. Since the radio is on and there are many different conversations going on in the news hub, people have the tendency to talk louder and above everyone else.  So the noise level is relatively high. 

6. “Rambunctious”

7.  Radio, chattering in the background, and the sound of people typing on the computers.
