just started watching the popular ABC and Netflix show, “Grey’s Anatomy'', and here's what I think about it and the hype surrounding it. Grey’s Anatomy is a show that dives into the working system of a hospital and basically the life of a doctor. I’ve only watched up to Season 4 but from what I have watched so far the show is pretty good. It has its dramatic moments, but who doesn’t like a little drama?

At the esteemed address of 725 19th Street NE, Washington, DC 20002, Mayor Bowser came to Friendship Blow Pierce. From announcing the teacher of the year to kicking off the leaf season she did everything.

So my peers and I at Friendship Online Academy have been back in school from the winter break for two weeks, but it feels like I never took a break at all. I am already looking forward to the next day off. I heard a comedian say teachers live from holiday to holiday, lol. Students do too.

I went to the Alamo over the winter break and it was AMAZING....the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema in NE DC that is. This is the District’s newest go to hotspot. It has been a while since the District has added a new cinema, but there is none like this one. The Alamo Drafthouse Cinema is not your run-of-the-mill movie theater, so don’t come expecting the routine bag of popcorn, nachos, overpriced candy and hotdogs. What you can expect is to be WOWED by the ambiance, the hospitality, the novelty, the experience, and the waiter. YES, I said waiter!

The movie Resident Evil, Welcome to Racoon City started off good but had a lot of flaws too. If you watched it via youtube or played the video game series of the same name then you are very familiar with the story's origin the movie was based on.

This school year at Friendship Collegiate Academy, Mr. Geter’s urban garden class planted the seeds to grow produce to sell to the community. He said, “Back in the days you could play in the dirt for free but now you can get paid while playing in the dirt and have the students help by planting fruits and vegetables. It's cool, it’s fun playing in the dirt and I got the kids to help out and make it fun”.

On May 18, 2017, the up and coming artist, Q da Fool came out with an album that made The Washington Post. The album was ranked 94th in Billboard’s Top 100. The name of the album is 100 Round Goon.

The internet has been around for a while, but it seems that more and more everyday it’s become a daily part of people's lives. Nowadays, it’s pretty rare to find someone not on the internet. It does almost everything.

Everybody, or at least most people, know about Thanksgiving. It’s the day when English settlers and Native Americans shared their food with the settlers and both the settlers and native Americans celebrated. Or so the story goes. This is actually a bit wrong. According to britannica.com, Thanksgiving is a holiday celebrating the first “American” corn harvest.

For all you new anime watchers, here’s one anime review coming from a weeb like me.

In March 2020, students found themselves cut off from the world. Educators faced difficult decisions and few choices while providing meaningful learning opportunities for all. Now that we're back in school, I think that returning to school was a bad idea because some kids are in school with their masks half down or not on at all.

On September 26, 2021, BMF Season One premiered on Starz. It’s an American crime drama series about a black mafia family that sells drugs and launders money.

I finished watching the Junji Ito Collection on Animix. It was astounding. From the fear, the visuals, the mystery, to the originality, it was unlike anything I’ve ever seen! Ito has a way of telling his stories so that it seems like the characters are hopeless so that you’ll just have to stick around and wait until you’re presented with a reason why, how or even what the danger is.
