This year Mary was given the overwhelming task of hosting Thanksgiving for her 36 person family. She has decided to shop for her supplies in Marshall, Minnesota.

For my animal performance scene I was a reindeer. The biggest strengths that I had for my scene was my movement, portrayal of eating, and display of the prey-like nature of a reindeer. During research I learned that a reindeer walks heavily but also spry. I properly conveyed this concept in my scene by leaping from leg to leg, making sure to lead with my knees when I was in the air and to place my weight on my leading foot when I landed.

Therefore, we must always remember that Christmas is…

Christmas, what it really means and existence. Everyone has their own beliefs or ways of celebrating it.Often things change from time to time. Maybe in other words generations after generations. I would say that is mostly with traditions. Christmas is supposed to have all these meanings but the question still remains. What is it about, where did it come from, how is it and was it celebrated. What does a tree have to do with anything? Why do people go house to house in the cold? Better yet, Who…

Reflection On march 10 in the PAC, at 7:00, I had the opportunity to be able to go and see The Hunchback of Notre Dame. It was a wonderful paly production, with some raunchy scenes, but, it was a very well orchestrated play, with well casted people and had very smooth transitions even though there wasn’t a curtain.
