ramblings of a teenage girl

Mulan jr...

This season opens on August 9 with Disney’s Mulan Jr, a story about a Chinese girl who proves that with courage, intelligence, and determination, she can bring honor to her family as much as any boy.

Based on the hit Disney film with the same name, this stage production features some of Repertory’s seasoned and accomplished actors, including Cris Villonco, Cara Barredo, and Caisa Borromeo alternating in the role of Mulan; PJ Valerio, Reuben Uy, and Felix Rivera alternating in the role of Chang; and Red Concepcion, Robbie Guevara , Rem Zamora, and Chevy Mercado alternating in the role of Mushu, the “Dragon Wannabe.” These young thespians are supported by a strong cast of veterans and talented newcomers.

Disney’s Mulan Jr. also features the same songs as the film, including the pop favorite “Reflections.” The piece is written especially for a young audience by Patricia Cotter, with music and lyrics by Matthew Wilder, David Zippel, Stephen Schwartz, Jeanine Tesori. and Alexa Junge. Musical arrangement is by Bryan Louiselle.

Disney’s Mulan Jr. runs at Greenbelt’s Onstage theater until December 18.

Christopher Gardner: (about the spelling mistakes in the graffiti of a building) It's not "H-A-P-P-Y-N-E-S-S" Happiness is spelled with an "I" instead of a "Y"

Christopher(anak niya): Oh, okay. Is "Fuck" spelled right?

Christopher Gardner: Um, yes. "Fuck" is spelled right but you shouldn't use that word.

Christopher: Why? What's it mean?

Christopher Gardner: It's, um, an adult word used to express anger and, uh, other things. But it's an adult word. It's spelled right, but don't use it.

Lightning McQueen: [returning after jumping over a huge billboard sign] Well? What'd you think?

Ramone: That was, yeah, that was a pretty cool jump.

Lightning McQueen: A jump? That wasn't a jump! Didn't you see me? I flew!

Ramone: Looked like a jump to me.

Lightning McQueen: What are you talking about? When I took off, those two birds in that tree, I heard them. One said "Look, it's a flying car!"

Ramone: Uh... birds can't talk.

Lightning McQueen: Yeah, but if they could, they would say... Look, I can fly. [Sally passes by and eyes him]

• "[Y]ou are exactly my brand of heroin."
  • Edward Cullen, p. 268
• "Bella, I don't know if I could live with myself if I ever hurt you. You don't know how it's tortured me. [...] The thought of you still, white, cold ... to never see you blush scarlet again, or see that flash of intuition in your eyes when you see through my pretenses ... it would be unendurable. [...] You are the most important thing to me now. The most important thing to me ever."
  • Edward Cullen, p. 273
• "And so the lion fell in love with the lamb..." he murmured. I looked away, hiding my eyes as I thrilled to the word. "What a stupid lamb," I sighed. "What a sick, masochistic lion."
  • Edward Cullen and Bella Swan, p. 274

14. Mind Over Matter

• "If I could dream at all, it would be about you. And I'm not ashamed of it."

  • Edward Cullen, p. 304
• "Yeah, it's an off day when I don't get somebody telling me how edible I smell."
  • Bella Swan, p. 306

LONDON – Millvina Dean was only 2 months old when she was wrapped in a sack and lowered into a lifeboat from the doomed Titanic. Now 96, the last survivor of the tragic sinking is selling mementos of the disaster to help pay her nursing home fees.

Rescued from the bitterly cold Atlantic on that April 1912 night, Dean, her 2-year-old brother and her mother were taken to New York with nothing but the clothes on their backs. Before returning home to England, they were given a small wicker suitcase of donated clothing, a gift from New Yorkers to help them rebuild their lives.

Now, Dean is selling the suitcase and other Titanic mementos to help pay her nursing home fees. They are expected to go for $5,200 at an auction of Titanic memorabilia Saturday in Devizes in western England.

Among the items are rare prints of the Titanic and letters from the Titanic Relief Fund offering her mother one pound, seven shillings and sixpence a week in compensation.

But the key item in the sale is the suitcase, said auctioneer Andrew Aldridge. "They would have carried their little world in this suitcase," he said Thursday.

Dean has lived at Woodlands Ridge, a private nursing home in the southern city of Southampton — Titanic's home port — since she broke her hip two years ago.
