A Dad is a Home
by: Cerina Galvan
And so, what is a home
When it feels lost
When something is so ever-changing
It needs someone with so much thought
So, a true home is where your dad lives
When the feeling of sadness becomes unaware
He gives and gives
And, he is always there
He grows like a rose, strong and daring
But then seasons change and he’s sometimes overbearing
How can you not love a protective soul?
When you need it the most
A dad is how a home never seems to fall
Tidy and uplifting everyone who enters
How can you not love to stay?
When the feeling is home-steady

The Revelation of Emily Dickinson
If you enjoyed the underestimating powerful script of Little Women then you will be delighted in the new series also about a female writer back in time trying to establish herself in the world. I highly recommend watching the riveting tale, Dickinson, a story of two lovers who encounter each other at a young age. In this time, they grow to be around twenty years old an age where love an adventure is purely guided by intense longings for love. This story follows Emily Dickinson a rebellious poet who is foreseen by her family to be placed in a box of duties she must attend to and comes forth to be her real self when around the portrayal of the love of her life, Sue. This Apple TV recommendation is a series of ten episodes each season and ended in an explosion of season two. I’m almost certain, given its highly talked about plot and nuance. It will come forth a third season of the same fascinatingly complicated love story that pours your heart out and leaves you with a sense of wanting more. It revolves around the kindle between the two lovers who are known to become best friends but immediately for Emily, Sue is said to be her most favorite person in the world as she describes her. It starts off with a lovely innocence of love in each of their representation of character. While colliding into a cathartic ending to season two that leaves you on the edge of your seat and yelling for more. In the beginning, first episode in, there is a short narrative that explains Emily and who she was in a short intro to the rest of the story. It is explained in such a way that leaves you curious of her life, the 2,000 poems she left behind and why she wasn’t known for her writings while living. Then it transitions into her laying on her bed getting an idea to write something, its almost suspenseful. Her first lines then renders you into the era of time where she was not only writing such beautiful poetry about her mind, soul, nature, life, and love, but experiencing a time where women were not seen as “genius”. But rather domestic disputes where she had to worship the ground men walked on and rely on them to be seen. It is the twisting of those two worlds, the ones of romanticizing life with her poems and then living in a blatant reality that leaves you with such wonder. Not only does the plot leave you in awe, the soundtrack allows you to encounter the modern eras contrast to the older era. Although the designing of it all is obviously set into the 1860s, it seems they add a stir of modern-day talk, controversies a woman faces, and realism to enhance the audiences appeal. Not only are the two main characters an appeal to the audiences but characters like her sister Lavinia, Austin, her mother and father add a modern-day humor and drama that leave you trapped in the lives of all the Dickinson’s. She doesn’t appear to want to follow in her mom’s footsteps as a woman of domesticity and comedically dramatic renders an outspoken approach to handling the way her mother so intrusively wants her to be married with kids like her. In the beginning she immediately explains who she to become, a great writer, leaving you wanting to embark on the journey ahead with her. It isn’t only the screenplay, dialogue, and display of different characters that leave you with such interest. Yet, it is also the perfect fit of acting that leaves you enthralled in the main character that Hailee Steinfeld plays. She portrays her character so fearlessly authentic that it gives you chills when she makes poems about her life and Sue. It the ways she explains her love for poetry and Sue that captures your spirits and almost gives you an angst to thirst for more revelation on her life. Immediately you contemplate her life and you go on a journey that relates to the female hardships of being pushed to be someone so specifically in society while she fights her own self of being the incredible writer she wants to be. But it is the chemistry between Sue and Emily that leaves you with your heart throbbing and almost if not completely in tears as they explore their love for each other through poems and letters so courageously.

'20/20'
"Do It Again" the track that would ultimately open the Beach Boys final album on Capitol Records which was released on February 10th 1969 had originally been released as a single in August of 1968. The track was the first of many post-Pet Sounds era throwbacks to the early Beach Boys sound which would become continually more cliched and eventually lead the Beach Boys to the level of self-parody they would eventually succumb to in the 1980s while their closest contemporaries The Beatles nearing the end of their run in 1969 would go on to be viewed as the most influential band of all time. However, the song itself is not bad on its surface, and it opens with a futuristic sounding (for 1969) drumbeat captured by then-Beach Boys engineer Stephen Desper using tape delays on the drums performed by Dennis Wilson and John Guerin. The song has been re-recorded numerous times over the years on various Beach Boys-related projects most notably the 2011 re-recording at Capitol studios featuring the five surviving Beach Boys at the time backed instrumentally by various members of both the Brian Wilson Band and Mike Loves touring "Beach Boys" to promote the then upcoming Beach Boys 50th Anniversary reunion tour in 2012. The hammering and power drill sound at the end of the song was an excerpt from a track called "Workshop" that was to be a part of the uncompleted "SMiLE" album.
