Sounds heard: Everyone is talking very loudly about our midterm that we are about to have, discussing what will be on it or what info we need to know. This goes on at this sound level for a while, then you hear people start to quiet down as Royston walks in, and someone asks about our research paper. He answers that we will talk about it on Tuesday.

– My own voice, the sound that ice coffee makes when you swirl it around and there’s some ice still at the bottom.
5- Describe the general sound level and amount of sound activity.
– The sound level is very intense – there is a lot of sound so altogether everything sounds muffled – except when you walk past a store sometimes you can hear the specific music – for example the music in Express which is played way too loud – once we entered the store we had to pretty much scream to communicate. Sound gets drowned out in the mall because the ceilings are really high so everything just goes into an abyss.
6- Assign a one word description to the “sound environment”.
– Multitasking
7- Select and list 3 sounds which are essential to the sound environment.
