  2. Farthest Sounds: the cars on the turnpike, occasional honking, a very faint police siren.
  3. Medium Range Sounds: somebody doing lawn work next door, cars driving by, birds chirping, occasional indiscernible talking.
  4. Closest Sounds: one of my housemates’ playing videos on their phone, one of my housemates cooking in the kitchen, the buzz of our security system, the occasional readjusting of blankets or pillows on the couch that I’m sitting on.
  5. I would describe the general sound level as quiet and static, and the general sound activity as frequent but unpredictable.
  6. Description: cozy.
  7. Essential Sounds: cars, cooking, and phone videos.

Location: My Living Room

Sounds: Children’s songs (Super Simple Songs mix of humpty dumpty), My little brother playing with his blocks, then crashing his T-Rex into said blocks; he also has a cactus toy that can replay any sound it picks up and play it back at a higher pitch and speed (much to my chagrin), My little sister cooing and making small noises in the background.

Location: the middle of the student center (during common hour).

The sounds heard in this clip consists of people walking/talking about, my friend (who was sitting across from me) singing, my friend clicking her pen, my drink being swirled around, my papers/trash being crushed and moved around, and quiet thuds or booms of things being placed/dropped in the very background.
