Greased Lightning


Image result for greaseImage result for greaseI recently watched one of the classic musicals ever, Grease. When I was younger I always watched this movie not understanding what it was ever about and just enjoying the catchy songs. Now watching it I've realized how it revolves around the real teenage life  and conflicts that adolescents face. In the movie characters face pregnancy scares, experience smoking and drinking, dropping out of high school, dating, committing sexual actions, and ultimately fun. Through the characters ups and downs they give a raw perspective of what high school is like considering this is a movie. Grease, in my opinion has a double meaning to it. One being to entertain, but another to show as an example of poor and good decision making in high school that can end up affecting your future.

Big Mouth is a show on Netflix that is about the stages of adolescences and how the main characters have different struggles while growing up. This show made it's self a crowd favorite when it came out because of its humor and the way it relates to us teenagers. As growing teenagers we can't always ask mommy and daddy for help on certain things and left to our own devices to figure them out. As were figuring out who we are in life we go through a series of ups and downs that are being portrayed in a funnier version on the show. To add each of the characters have home issues besides the ones at school, as do many of us. Some of the situations in the show may be a little bit of a stretch from our lives but the main concept is there. Balancing out a social life and a home/school life can be difficult at times. Especially when put in a position to choose between the two sides.

Abby has raised most of her student since they were around 2 years old and put their names on the map with her amazing choreography, training, discipline, and pushing her students to the best of their ability;by traveling and competing every week. Besides watching and admiring the dancers beautiful dancing. The thing that really makes it an enjoyable show is when the dance moms fight and things get heated between the Abby's team and the rival team. Abby is known for her winning numbers and feels defeated when they come across a loss. But when it comes to the Candy Apples (biggest rival), Abby refuses to lose to them and has stood by that through all their winning titles when battling them. Although the moms all love each other they are willing to do whatever it takes to keep th...

Lana Del Rey newest album Norman F******* Rockwell has impacted the music industry very much. With a majority of the media enjoying  her music, I to enjoy it and really feel moved by it. Lana's angelic voice and her way with words makes her music beautiful and emotionally attached to her listeners. It differentiates the form of hearing music and listening to it. while singing it's almost as if shes calling for you to hear what shes saying and feel what shes feeling in that one moment. Because of this Rey opens us up to a new perspective of music and how we read and hear it. Lana also creates another connection with her fans by developing a story through her music to connect to us in way we can relate to them. through tough times and complications we face when growing up Lana tackles in her music and almost even works as an answer when it comes to handling these issues and helps us get a different view in tackling them.
