This morning I went to the first showing of The Jungle Book at the movies. The movie was supposed to start at 10:00 a.m. We got there much earlier, even while we got popcorn and drinks, that was my breakfast, we were still the first ones in the theatre. As we waited, the rest of the audience started to come in; by the time it started the room was pretty full, considering it was a Saturday morning.
From what I remember of the 1967 animated movie, which according to my mom, my brother and I watched multiple times everyday when we were little, this one was very loyal to the original . I haven’t watched that one in years, even before the accident, so I can’t say I remembered that much, but as I watched I remembered parts of the plot.
All of the animals were so realistic, I really can’t believe they did that. There were times I thought they were real animals, but how can they make them do all that, I thought. They obviously weren’t real, but it’s amazing how they can make you think they’re real.
I was reliving my childhood a few times, watching Baloo and Mowgli sing The Bear Necessities, and King Louie sing I wanna be like you. I really enjoyed it and I would recommend it to anyone and everyone.

I’m an aspiring writer still looking for exactly what I want to write about, with a lot of creativity, imagination and desire to write.
I studied Writing and Rhetoric at Syracuse University where I explored many different sides of writing through my classes and extracurricular activities in order to narrow my search for an identity as a writer.
I have written for Citrus TV Noticias and La Voz magazine, both of which gave me the chance to explore different mediums in which to write in. Through Citrus TV Noticias I also gained experience in translating from English to Spanish and vice versa, which is also something that I would be interested in working on since I am fluent in both of these languages. I was also an intern at Syracuse University Press where I got hands on experience in what goes into actually editing and publishing a book.
Through out the last four years I have faced a lot of challenges, which helped chape the person I am today. After being in a tragic car accident, being in comma, having a Traumatic Brain Injury, and being in therapy for over a year, I am a new me, willing to face challenges and knowing how to deal with them. I want to write about my accident and life after it to help others, show them it can be done and help in any way I can.
