Happy Holiday Season!

 

Hanukkah is the Festival of Lights. 
  

The holidays are coming up soon and I am excited about it!  They always make me happy. I am Jewish so I celebrate Hanukkah. I light the menorah for all 8 nights. I usually get presents as well. They range from clothes to make up to Broadway tickets. I enjoy my gifts very much.

Another thing I enjoy doing during the holidays is going to holiday parties. I was at my friend CJ Griffin's holiday party last year at his house in Morris Plains, NJ. He has it almost every year. I hope to go this year.

I like to see the NYC Christmas Tree at Rockefeller Center as well. I have taken the train from Maplewood to Penn Station NYC in the past to see it. My dad also has driven me to NYC as well. It is beautiful! I love it! It is very huge!

I enjoy going to New Year's Eve parties at the end of December. It is to ring in the new year. I was at my friend Micheal Feit's New Year's party last December at his apartment in Florham Park, NJ and it was fun! It was amazing!

In conclusion, I enjoy the holidays very much. What is your favorite tradition during the holidays? If you have a favorite comment below!

Broadway Music and My Favorite Composers

Image
 I would like to tell you about my favorite composers. These composers made an impact on the stage as well in music. Here is Alan Menken in his recording studio  Alan Menken was one of my favorites. He wrote the music for Beauty and the Beast as well as Little Shop of Horrors. I like him because he wrote music for Broadway as well as for the movies and both of these were made into movies.  Here is a young Stephen Sondheim at an event  Another one I enjoy is Stephen Sondheim. He wrote the music for Gypsy, Company, Sweeney Todd, Into the Woods and Follies, just to name a few. He had a very long and legendary career on Broadway. Sondheim was a trailblazer. When he passed away in 2021 the loss was immense. Even the Broadway lights dimmed for him. A lot of famous people posted on social media their condolences and their memories of him. Here is Andrew Lloyd Webber during a Phantom photoshoot Another composer I like is Andrew Lloyd Webber. He wrote the music to Phantom of ...

The Long Walk review

   On Wednesday, September 17th, I saw the Long Walk at the AMC in West Orange. It was based on a novel written by Stephen King. Many of his works were turned into movies and TV Shows.  It was about the United Sates being taken over by a military regime. A second Civil War has happened and the US is in ruins.  The leader of the regime is called the Major. It is unknown about what is real name is. Every year e runs event called the Long walk.

He said that the rules are if the contestants stop they will get three warnings and than they will get killed. The Major stated that they walk until there is one of ...

My trip to Miami Florida

Image
I was in Miami, Florida for Father's Day weekend. I was there from June 13-16.  I had an early morning flight from Newark International Airport to Miami International Airport on June 13. When I landed in Miami, Florida, I was astounded. I was  astounded by the palm trees as well as the warm weather. My dad was on the plane with me from NJ to FL.  My dad rented a condo in Miami, Florida and we stayed there. We went to the beach and the pool to go swimming. The water was warm when I was swimming in the ocean. We went for a walk one time and we saw the boats there. The boats were huge!   Me and my dad went out to dinner as well. On Friday night we went out to Carpaccio which is an Italian restaurant in Bal Harbour, Florida. It was so good! We had a Caesar salad as well as fried calamari to start with for an appetizer. For a main course I had a pasta dish. It was delicious.  On Saturday, I saw my brother, Jared and his girlfriend, Abbie at Jaya, with is an Asian res...
