The Review Club- Movies, Music, & What's In!
On the Road with Andy Anasa
Over my break, my family and I drove a long winding road trip to Orlando Florida. Man, it was a heck of a journey, but it was totally worth it! On our first night, we stopped in a North Carolina hotel to rest and the hotel was decent. The next day in South Carolina, we visited the famous and ''Disneyland'' of all gas stations, Bucky's! It is an awesome place for delicious snacks, lunch, souvenirs, and more! ! I tried some delicious homemade Korean BBQ beef jerky that did not disappoint! But, I think the best thing on the menu is the American BBQ beef brisket sandwich. They also have a king size soda fountain to quench '' thirsty beavers'' like Bucky, who is the beaver mascot! Okay now to the main events. We stayed six nights at Universal's Stella Nova resort. For a value hotel, it was very nice. The rooms were clean, and the food court had a Starbucks bakery. Our first full day, we drove to Disney's Hollywood Studios at the WDW resort. We rode some fun rides in Star Wars Galaxy's Edge like Rise of the Resistance, and the Millennium Falcon, Smugglers Run. In Toy Story Land, we rode the Alien saucers. Afterward, we had a rootin tootin bbq feast at Woody's bbq. I had some brisket that was fork tender, some fall of the bone chicken, and creamy mac and cheese. Oh boy, was it all tasty! But sadly, we missed Fantasmic, the night time show starring the true and original Mickey Mouse. It was raining. The morning after, was our day at Universal studios. I rode the 3D slow Despicable Me Minions ride which starred Mr. Gru and his adorable daughters- Margo, Edith, and Agnes. It was awesome! I recommend it for those who are not fans of scary rides! The Simpsons ride was cool too! We also saw a huge parade with characters from some of my favorite movies. Jaws, Ghostbusters, and Minions: the Rise of Gru. The next day, I went to Universal Islands of Adventure. I did The Spider Man Ride. It was EPIC! My brother and I also rode the X-Men spinning saucers. I also went to the theme park of one of my all time favorite movies, Harry Potter World. I rode the Hogwarts Express! At the end of the night, we did Dr. Seuss Landing! Greg would have loved it because I know he likes that. The day after, we visited Epic Universe, the new park. It was awesome. I did the new Harry Potter ride in the Ministry of Magic area. THE RIDE SO BRILLIANT! Hats off to JK Rowling for the idea of the ride! Super Nintendo World was A++. That might have been my favorite part! I rode Mario Kart: Bowser's Revenge, and the Yoshi ride. I also got three keychain plush figurines of Mario, Yoshi, and Donkey Kong. The last day was at Disney's Contemporary Resort. I had a yummy breakfast of Mickey Waffles and cinnamon buns at Chef Mickeys! I got my picture taken with my favorite characters. The day after, we went to the Magic Kingdom. It's always a memorable time there. That concludes my trip. PS, stay tuned for my Disneyland CA trip in October for the 70th anniversary. I will be a second year student by then. Hope you all enjoyed my write up!
"Book talk with Andy" Quidditch Throughout the ages
Upcoming Movies for the Summer of 2025
I'm so excited to see some of those movies in the theaters, which it is a good thing to see movies during the summer to make it even better! The upcoming movies include the smurfs, freakier friday, Elio, superman, Happy Gilmore 2, Jurassic World Rebirth and Bad guys 2.
Hi everyone! It's me, Andy Anasa! I am a First Year student at PTW and I love to read and talk about the books I am reading. I try to read about 2 books per month every night. This week I am reading a book from JK Rowling's beloved fantasy novel series ''Harry Potter'' called ''Quidditch Throughout the Ages.'' It is from the ''Hogwarts Library series including 2 other books called ''Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them'' and ''The Tales of Beedle the Bard.'' Ok so ''Quidditch Throughout the Ages is a fun, quick, and easy read novel about the popular sport played throughout ''The Wizarding World of Harry Potter.'' The game is played featuring basic elements such as broomsticks, a ball, and a golden sphere like bird creature called a ''Snitch.'' The rules of the game are that each player is mounted on a broomstick and attempts to win the game by having more points than their opponents by the time the Golden Snitch is caught. Overall, I really enjoyed the book very much, henceforth, I love how JK Rowling's writing and creative storytelling engage the real ''Muggle World'' readers to keep attention. Furthermore, her characters, stories, and elements are amazing and I cannot wait to continue the ''Harry Potter'' and ''Hogwarts Library.'' More book reviews coming soon! - Andy

Holiday Concert At Tiles Center Review
On Tuesday night (November 28th) I went to the holiday concert At The Tiles Center, my dad requested tickets for it. I told and asked Eddie (my bf about it and if he was free that night/wanted to go, and we decided to go. I also thought it would be a nice way to get into the spirit since I'm trying to for a lot of reasons, we both like holiday music and Eddie is sort of buddy the elf in real life to me. It was even more crowded then the Abba one. After checked out by security with our tickets there was carolers singing along and pretty holiday decorations. Then we got drinks and went to our seats. We sat in the left of the theater so we got good seats. The stage was even decorated very nicely in holiday stuff. In the show it wasn't just beautiful decorations and nice holiday music. They also played Hanukkah music too. It was also nice singers who sang very well, a big orchestra, a big very nice tributes, speeches, and a screen where they played all the iconic Christmas movies. There was also a 15 min intermission. I remember us feeling very happy and joyful. It was a good show, I'd recommend it if you ever get tickets for this and are looking for a way to get into the holiday spirit.

My Review Of The Music Of ABBA Arrival (From Sweden) Show At The Tilles Center
I'll be reviewing The Music Of ABBA Arrival (From Sweden) Show I saw at Tilles Center I intern at right now with my BF Eddie this past Thursday November 16th. Since we're both big fans of ABBA even though it was before our time. Not only Tom asked me if I could do a review on here which I told him I would but I wanted to do one as well. After looking at the shows for the Tilles Center assignment I was interested in it and asked Eddie if he wanted to/was free that day, it turned out that he was and knew he would. Then Eddie brought tickets, and we planned for the day. When we got there there was a lot people for the show before getting into the theater. When we got to our seats we were amazed how many people were here to see it. Before the show we were talking about what song we want to hear and think they're going to play. Then when the show started we were jumping for joy, singing loudly, dancing at the upbeat songs and happy what they played. And also a little surprised at what they played, when, how they did, and where. They even sounded like the band. They played "I've Been Waiting For You", "Head Over Heels", "Honey Honey, Honey", "Gimme, Gimme,Gimme", "Dance While Music Goes On", "Money, Money, Money", "Knowing Me, Knowing You", "Andante, Andante", "Fernando", "Chiquitita", "Eagle", "I Have A Dream", "I Still Have Faith In You", "The Winner Takes It All", "If It Wasn't For The Nights", "Mamma Mia!", "Just A Notion", "Take A Chance On Me", "The Name Of The Game", "Super Trouper", "Thank You For The Music", and lastly "Dancing Queen" everyone was dancing to that. Which they came back that we all thought it was over which it wasn't yet. Then after the song it ended, everyone was leaving at the same time and got crowed. We didn't get back home till 10pm 10/10 experience.
