New School, Same City

I'm a college student and after deciding to find another school (I was getting nowhere with El Camino), I stumbled upon Westwood College, a collection of colleges around the country that specializes in several career programs. Knowing I had talent in art in some forms, I decided to go as a Game Art Major. Originally wanting to go to the campus in Torrance (its closer to home), I decided to go to the campus in Anaheim for several reasons: 1.) My sister goes to that campus so she can ease me into the school system. 2.) Proximity to Disneyland which is down the street. I was initially nervous at first because the college runs different. There are no semesters, there are terms that last 9 weeks each. That can put a lot of pressure since work needs to be done in that short amount of time. But the first term was easy (and as its said, the first term is the only easy term you'll ever get). As the months went on, several teachers made me realize that I had talent that I didn't ev...

Random act of Kindness

She wasn't crying or anything and seem to not have minded losing. The group was about to leave when I made a decision. There was 2 factors in making the decision that I made: 1.) I played the game 3 years ago and won a Dumbo already 2.) I figured I'd make someones day if they get a random surprise from someon...

Frozen-Live at the Hyperion: From concept to opening and personal thoughts

Next week, a brand new show will open at the Hyperion Theater in Disney California Adventure marking the first time since 2003 that a new show has opened at the Hyperion. Frozen-Live at the Hyperion will be the first "Frozen" show in any theme park that is a true broadway type production created to retell the story of the movie. Previous shows have been small, temporary shows but have the same purpose of reliving the movie. The new show will incorporate the latest in video projecting technology that Disney has used recently in shows like World of Color and Disneyland Forever. Orgins: Back when Frozen opened in theaters and its popularity was clear, many have speculated that Frozen could be next to be made on Broadway. At the time, Disney stated that a broadway production was being looked into. Others have said that the Hyperion Theater could get Frozen to replace the long running Aladdin: A Musical Spectacular. By the time Disney confirmed that their Broadway Division...
