Anime to Watch: Monster
Monster is a show that had me seeing serial killers in every corner of my room. It kept me on the edge of my seat through the entire 74 episode ride of thrills, twists, and turns. The plot of the show starts simply enough: Dr. Kenzo Tenma, an up and coming brilliant neurosurgeon, finds himself in a dilemma: his boss tells him to operate on a prominent government official who has just been brought to their hospital, promising a promotion if he does. However, a young pair of twins come in; the girl catatonic with fear and the boy needing immediate surgery to remove a bullet in his brain. The boy has a more difficult surgery, and Tenma realizes he’s the only one who can do it. Disobeying his boss, he decides to operate on the boy, saying that his life is just as important as the government official. Fast forward about nine years, and the boy comes back, only now he’s an emotionless serial killer.

Social Issues from The Newsies | Class & Power
The Newsies strike of 1899 was able to bring many social inequities to a point of discussion. There were three main issues that the Newsies strike of 1899 were able to pinpoint: child labor, class and power, and the power of the press.

Introduction Time!
Hello out there! My name is Jessica, but you can call me Jess. Hmm, where should I begin? I suppose I should start by saying I'm a bit of a mess and well, a lot weird. I'm a creativity junkie, I love anything to do with making art. Drawing, sewing, sculpting and all that fun stuff. I've been drawing for as long as I can remember, but around high school I discovered this completely amazing thing called anime. And what does that have to do with all this? One word, cosplay. I have a major obsession with both anime and cosplay.

I Need Theatre Back In My Life.. First Place in Better Days Challenge.
When I came back to San Diego after graduating from college, I didn’t really know anyone. All my friends either went back to their respective hometowns, graduate school, or started new lives in new cities. There was so much uncertainty for me in 2017; when I would finally land a job, where it would be, where I would live, and who my friends would be. The only thing I knew for sure was that I wanted to perform again. Musical theatre has been a great love of mine since I was a child, and something I never had time to do in college.
