Jonathan Favreau has done the impossible with The Lion King. By making another film of the original version and putting his ideas in the movie. It’s not hard to see that this movie has made thousands of views across the world. How can anyone miss the chance of seeing this great movie called The Lion King.

Favreau is telling the same story as the original. But this time Favreau is making it into CGI as the remake. This movie is a world known movie and has become part of people ́s childhood as something they remember so it has stuck with them. This new version has fans excited about the remake of this move. This new film has inspired and has more complexity and feelings because of the story and how powerful the movie is.

The plot?  It’s been twenty four  years since the old Lion King came out. The remake of The Lion King came out in 2019. In case you need a refresher they both are Disney animated about a young lion Simba the heir of his father, Mufasa. Simba’s wicked uncle, Scar, plots to usurp Mufasa’s throne by luring father and son into a stampede of wildebeests. But Simba escapes, and only Mufasa is killed. Simba returns as an adult  to take back his homeland from Scar with the help of his friends Timon and Pumbaa.Maybe me personally being unfair by saying that the original Lion King is better than the new version. The old movie is better in my point of view. Some people may agree that if they have not seen the original they would have like the remake version. Those two movies have the same characters but different actors so it is very unique.

This movie really explains what it feels like to be king and the circle of life of animals. There are good actors and actresses and they do a good job doing their voice overs for that character. Such as for the new move of the Lion King the actors are Donald Glover as Simba, Beyonce as Nala, James Earl Jones Mufa and Chiwetel which he plays as Scar are some of the main actors.    The rest of the story is like every other Disney movie. In movie terms, Hakuna Matata.

I am starting to feel like the world is on my shoulders and I can not get it off of me. It’s so big that A person with super powers can Not move it. I don’t like having too much to do because I get overwhelmed and it just turns out bad. I thought that I would be able to manage my time but I guess not. I just wish that there were more time in a day. I learned you must wake up early to do stuff because it won’t get done if you wait until the middle of the day. I am saying this because this is how I feel right now. I feel like there is no one that I can turn to with all of these and say I need help because there is no school. I woke up this morning feeling fresh and ready to start my day. I ran down the stop for breakfast, lunch for the day. The free meal that they give out. Not saying I don’t have food at home I just get them for snacks when I get hungry and they come in handy when you do not have anything to eat and you have to go back to the store and re-stock in your house. Then I come back home and my mom says ” Cook breakfast for us” I said “ok mom” So I made that. A few moments later my mom says I have to go do so work for a landlord and look at some house you want to come with. I was thinking should I stay home are should I stay home. So I have to make my mind up and I got tired of staying in the house and I said yes. Because I wanted to get out the house. But I had work from my food class that I had to do but it was really simple so I can do it when I get home. So when I came home around 4:00pm I was ready to do it and I got all these emails from teachers saying this is do and everything. So I get to them and I just get overwhelmed with all of these. So I had to write out everything that I had to do when I had it to get done by. And I just keep doing the work. So I am up until 10:00pm doing work because I have to get it done when I start something So i’m stressed. The world can be on you but push it away. I just try to take it step by step and make my way through these online classes and just stick through it. I am so ready to just be done with high school and start a new book in my life and just be great. But I learned you have to stay on top of your game in these online classes because you can get behind and it takes more work than going to school in person.

Looking as time is moving to fast because I think that everyday that I live I one day closer to my birthday. A child that was born on March 29. Ready to be grown in my eyes but seems like that is never the case when you still with your mom that says ” you are not grown until you are out my house and paying your own bills.” But yet I think I am because I remember my birthday is in 1 day. Looking up the age limit on how old you have to be to be grown. But that could never change her mind. with all of this stuff going around like the corona-virus it taking a toll on my birthday plans. I had a lot of things that I was going to do but I have to spend my birthday in the house with my mom and just watch people text and call me all day saying happy birthday. I don’t think I will never forget that day in my life time. But looking back over in my life I have a lot of good birthdays and I wish to have many more. I wanted to just get on here and ramble about my birthday. I am very happy to turn 18 because you only turn 18 once and I will enjoy every minute of it because I don’t take life for granted. When I was 17 I would always try to dog walking so it can look good for me when I go of to school because I want to major in veterinary medicine and so I would call an animal shelter that had dog walking and would go to apply but but they said I had to be 18 and It broke my heart for me to hear them tell me that. But since my birthday is coming up I’m going to apply and pray I get the job. Because Happy Birthday to me.

Waiting and until 3:17 I finally thought it was going to be a dream talking in food class saying I’m ready for spring break. Telling all of my teachers that I will miss you and see you when I come back. I getting everything done over break that I need to do before we come back things like cleaning my house and prom shopping. Lying in bed never getting up to anything that I just said forgetting about everything because I wanted but yet still bored looking at the walls. Getting up every day doing the same thing watching Youtube, talking to people, on Snapchat and Instagram. It gets old after a min but still looking at the walls. I got an alert saying that school will be pushed back into April 4th. I was mad that I had to stay in the house for another couple of weeks. I was so ready just to get out of the house. My church went to an online church and only had the people that make up the service there. And I was one of those people so I had to wake up early for that. We have been washing our hands like crazy so we don’t get the corona-virus. My mom is taking this so serious she spray down our house everyday and no one can come over. I got out of the house again and I went to my friend’s house who lives up the street in my neighborhood and chilled with them and played kickball outside. I was so bored that my mom was ready to get rid of me. I play the piano and sing doing things to keep me active in the house. Sleeping is getting over played I never sleep so much a day in my life. I miss my show choir friends and all my teachers and it’s driving me crazy that I can not see them. But we are all going through this thing. Then my friend texts me and says we don’t go back to school until April 22 because they pushed it back again to do this corona-virus. So I was crying because i hated being in the house and I was just ready to go to school. All the time I said that I did not like school and did not like it. I regret saying that I miss school. And the virus is messing up my senior year and you know it was a one in a lifetime thing for me and I Will never see again and I just want to say I’m bored but I will be in the house until this is over I miss all y’all just to let y’all know. 

It all started at waking up at six in the morning to come to lift for life to come to an workshop were they help kids for college and getting into it. So I came to work on scholarships and essay to fill out. I am very happy that thee is so many people out here today helping us as young people find the right way to go and become successful. I was getting a little less determinant because it was so much to do. My mom is so persisted on what to do so I had to make sure I get it done. I had the find one of the best of the best helpers working essays. I looked around for my habitat leader Peggy Hull she is one of the best people that you will ever meet. She help me to the right person and that person was her sister. And her sister works in the same field as her.

I seat down with her and I introduced my self and she could tell that I was ready to work when I came to here and that I had my things together. I was so nervous on what she was going to say about the tings that I have wrote down the day before. When she read it she looked at me and said what a good job I could use this I can add some tips but this is a great start. So she started to wright down thing that I could talk about in the paper and how I could start it off. She begin to bring up so many ideas that made me think more and more into my paper for this scholarship. It started to bring tears to my eyes to think about on how far I come as a person because she was pulling so much out of me to be put on paper. Finally she typed of a few pages for the scholarship but you can only have 500 words. By the time that we were done we had 535 words she told me that my homework for that day was to get it down to 500 and she gave me her number and said ” If I have any question feel free to call me.”

Close to the end of the workshop that had a student panel for people that already graduated college and we were allowed to ask question. I really did not ask any but other people were and I was listing to them and kind of taking note of what was being said. This is so helpful to every student know matter what grade you are in better to do it early than latter in your senior year. I am so happy that I am making all the right moves to going to my dream school. And I will make the best of every moment.

It all started with my teacher telling the class that you have to say a poem at the wolf cafe and it will be graded out of a 100 points. I look with a mad face wondering on how am I going to pull that off. So we started to wright and I had to think what was the greatest thing that happens to me so it made me think and really think. Then it pop in my head and I said being smart and doing good on my ACT. So I begin to wright and A title pop in my head and I said these is going to be called To Smart. I spent hours on writing until I thought that it was good. The day of we are suppose to turn it in and he will look over it and grade them. I was so nervous because I did not want to do a bad job on it.

So I went home and told my mom about me doing these poem and she ask me why do you think you are not smart and I was like It’s not about me not being smart its about be being smart. She at fist did not get it. The day that I came back to the class he gave them back when I look at my paper I see that he had crossed of a big part of it and was like they are two different poems. As I go back and read they are two poems that I wrote in one. So I went backed and reviewed it like the boy did in this video when his teacher wanted him to draw something just like the pic and he keep doing until he go it. That something I did until I got the poem I wanted. It was like two weeks until the big day and I had to learn this poem by like knowing it with no paper. I thought it was going to be hard but when I seat down and begin to read it I knew I had it in the bag. Nothing was going to hold me down on that nigh because I new I wanted to get that good grade.

So here it comes faster then I thought I have to be there at 6:30 so my friend was like I don’t want to be late because I do not want to loses points. So we are seating down at the wolf and I waiting until they call me and as everyone goes and as I was waiting I was looking at my poem on my phone and then they all my name and I am so nervous I cant feel my feet. But I get up there and I kill it. The next day I look at what I got on it and I got a 100 on it I was jumping up and down on my bed so thank you because I did it.

Yesterday Was a fun day for the class of 2020 at Marquette High School. It was very different and something that I thought that was not going to be fun. But I went because I wanted to try something new and also it sounded fun. Nothing was going to stop me from having a good time with my friends. I got to see some of my teachers there and watch them tube and see there facial reactions. When we first got there I was a little scared but I tried not to show it. I looked up saw the hill and was in ah because I was like can I really go up that high. So my first time I went up with my BFF on this tubing thing and the like elevator thing that takes you to the top of the hill she fell on it and could not keep her balance. So then it was my turn to come up and I stood there with no problem like a G. When I went down it was like a fast car I felt every inch of the cold wind and I was screaming but having so much fun.

Time after time after time I keep going down the hill with my friends and we had so much fun we did all the way up until lunch. We made Tik Tok and made s’mores and they were cool to do. I have a video on my YouTube Chanel about the senior trip. It was something different we were the first class to ever go to hidden valley. I all ways try to make the best out of everything even if i’m not having fun because who knows that I will be back. We go and seat down so we can get food and eat because we were starving and s we get in line and they so many options to chose from it looked so good made you want to hurt yourself. I got cheese fries,Chicken tenders and a sprite. It was good because I was hungry but if I was not I would not have ate. But at the end of the day we all had fun and that all it matters.

I never really understood what thee ACT was. My mom use to all ways talk about when you get to high school your going to have this big test were it deceased if you go to college. I brushed it off my shoulders because I did not I in 8th grade. So as I came to high school my freshman year and I would see all of the juniors go on a day and take there ACT and they would talk about how they did and what went wrong. I took the practice ACT my first year and I did not understand anything on it I was lost I just started circling different letters. I think I got a 15 on it. I tried very hard I think even though I did not know what in the world I was doing. Close to the ending of my freshman year I joined a group called habitat for humanity. They help kids like me to find a college and do ACT prep and ect.

When I was walking Into my Junior year I was very nervous for the second Semester because I did not know what it was going to bring. So my mom was on me saying you have to to get the ACT book and you have to practice. So I got Act help and things like that. I use to go to Washington University through my habitat program and they gave me free torturing for the semester. I went every Thursday and they would help me with my homework and also they will help me with the ACT. We would do one question out of each section and I would keep doing it. I did this so I can get a feel for on how the test is going to be and so I can do well.

So the day Of my ACT day I walk in with a white shirt and PJ pants on with house shoes. I was trying ti be the comfortable as possible. I walk in with a positive mind and saying ” I can do it.” So I take it and I felt like I did a bad I though I just boomed it I did no good. After three weeks I was so nervous. I did not what day it was going to come in the mail.I waited a very long time to get them and it got to the point were my mom was asking everyday. My friends would ask me how was the ACT how you think you did. I will say I do not think I did that good and I got like t 27 on it. I came home from school one day and I was on the bus and my mom had called me on my phone and said ” I got to tell you something.” And I was ready to here about it I could not wait. I run up the street when I got off that bus because I thought it was something that was suppose to come to me that I ordered. As I rush through the door I rain up our stairs. My mom said look what you got. I look at the paper and I scream and run around my house yelling going crazy.Me and my mom did not believe it so we had to ask and make sure that they gave use the right one. And when they said yes I just started calling all of my family telling them. And that is how you get prepared for a ACT.

Being talented is a gift and not everyone has it. It takes a special person to have this gift. Well look here that gift has been given to me. This gift has played a big part in my life and it has been a game changer. Going from practice to practice all day long. It started when I was four years old never thought I would sing or dance a day in my life. One day I got home from school and my mom was waiting at my bus stop and she was like you are about to go to dance. I look with a angry face and said “when did you put me on a team.” I said. She said” I thought that you may want to try something new”. My mom said. So remind you I was in elementary school so I was down for what ever had came my way. I did not know I was young could not know how to say no. So it started there. People you use to all ways you are so gifted you are talented.

I use to all ways want to be in that thing with the nice suites and sparkly dress but I never new on how to get in it. It looked very fun to do when the teacher had came to my middle school. So When I got to high school my mom was like you can not do show choir you have to do a different choir so I was very upset. So time has come to my senior year and I realized that I still have not done what I really wanted to do. My friend Grace S was like if you do not do show choir I will be very upset. And i’m like ok I do not want to make her mad an I guess I will give it a shot. So I try out I was very nerves I was like I am not going to make it. So I went in and gave them every thing I got. Later that day II looked to see if I made it and when I tell you I was so Happy I jumped for joy.

I did not know how much work that they put into it until I joined it was so much. a whole week of summer camp had me struggling like I was going to die. three songs to remember I new It was going to a long week. As time came we practiced we worked and we had a fall show coming up and I was so nerves. As the day of the performance we all got dressed up in our suits and dress. That we were on school performances and when I tell you I hit that stage I did my thing . As time went on through out the first semester we learned our comp songs and dance. And we worked from day in to day out after school practices and everything. But it all will pay off at our comp’s. We travel almost like every other weekend and we have fun but we also love going on that stage and kicking butt. Then we tell others good job you are going to kill it. I am not ready for the show choir season over. But this the life of a show choir kid.

It all started with a dream that I would never ever have friends when I got to middle school. I was a short, ferrous ,smart little boy that never really understood how things flowed. Middle school seemed like it was bigger than the United Sates. I walk in with a boy that look ten times taller than me trampling over kids that have got off my bus trying to go see his friends in the cafeteria. All of the 6th graders had to seat in the gym for the first day of school for a power point informational purposes . But I had to go to the restroom so I had went to the restroom and as I walk in it was a long line of boys waiting to use the restroom. As i’m waiting they look at me and say “what grade you in.” I was so scared to respond pee started to drip down my leg. My words murder out sixth grade. They started to laugh at me. So I walked out because I was nervous that they were going to make fun of me that by me big in sixth grade.

People use to all ways say that don’t get bulled in middle school or you going to be put in a locker it you mess with upper class- men. But all of that was story’s to so call scare me. So as I walk in the gym for the middle school talk I seat next to this girl by the gym doors, I did not know her name and she was very nice to me. She was in the same grade as me and she had gave me the papers that had been passed out when I was waiting to use the rest room. As we were released to our class come to find out we had the same class I seat by her and we worked together as parterres on everything. As days went by and months went by we became closer and closer as friends. By this time we were starting our 8th grade year and we were so happy for all the fun things that were coming down the line. One day as me and my friend were talking at lunch she was telling me on how she was moving and that they need help and if it was possible to come to her old house and help her move. So I ask my mom and she said I need to talk to her mom first.

As we stayed friends we grew and grew with each other.I could not see use being friends any more because she was that nice to me. So I asked her were was she moving to and she told me I got so happy that I jumped for joy because it was right up the road from my house in the same neighborhood. I knew then we would be long lasting friends so that when I asked her. Are we friends because I’m trying to be your best friends with you it feels like we been knowing each other for so long. She looked at me and said you are my best friend because you were the first person I meat in this school and we having been knowing each other for a long time. I would walk up to her house and we would do homework and study together me and her family would do events and things to keep us active. I had told her when we were in 6th grade that I had a fear that I would not have no friends she said I did to but i’m glade that I meat you. As time went by years and years we stayed together went to the same high school and to this day we are BFF to the end no one can replace a friend that is ride or die for you. We are walking across the stage together because we stick together and that’s what real friends are. ” A real friend is one who walks in when the rest of the world walks out.” Because we are best friends until the end.
