Shakespeare By The Sea

Students joined teacher Steven from SB campus in San Pedro for Shakespeare By The Sea's performance of "Othello." 

Shakespeare By the Sea is a group of traveling actors who perform various Shakespeare plays along the coast in Los Angeles. 

Point Fermin is a lovely scenic spot that most students miss when they're in LA. 

Luckily they could catch this popular summer event in this special place. Everyone met at school and carpooled down the San Pedro just before sunset. 

Some students brought snacks and drinks and some were available for purchase there. 

 

Everyone enjoyed a lovely evening under the stars with Othello!

Lunch and Suicide Squad!!

The students and I met at noon. We were all a little sleepy but we were also ready to eat and see some action! We decided to buy our tickets first. Strangely the tickets for our 1:30 show were $5.00 more than usual. When we got to the ticket counter we were pleasantly informed that our show was in the new premium theater with hi see color and Dolby sound.  After hearing that we were happy to pay the extra fee. Now we were off to lunch.

We ate lunch in the Food Court if Del Amo. Our meals consisted of everything from sushi and pizza to noodles and cheesecake. We ate well but not too much. We also discussed our favorite DC characters, which most agreed was The Joker, mainly for his insanity, evil laugh, and even more evil ways! Then it was movie time!

We walked into a state of the art Dolby Hi-Def Super Colorized Picture theater right at 1:30, because our seats and sections were reserved. Our seats were amazing. We could push the screen to adjust every angle and position of the seats. They were super comfortable made the movie that much more enjoyable.

All in all THE LSI SUICIDE SQUAD, have this movie an 8 out of 10... It wasn't great but it had enough excitement and humor for everyone to enjoy.

Food Trucks in America!!

A lot of students at Language Systems come from countries that have a vibrant street food culture. Because of certain strict laws and regulations in California, there is not a lot of street food out there. However, we do have a thing called food trucks in California, and you should check some of them out. A lot of cities have food truck gatherings, when many different types of food trucks all meet at one location to give people a really cool dining experience.

 Recently, a group of Language Systems students from the OC campus went to a food truck gathering in Fullerton, CA. The most popular truck that night was a fusion truck that combined Korean food with Mexican and American food.

The most popular item that the students ordered was the pork belly sliders. Another favorite was a truck selling Cajun food, which comes from New Orleans, Louisiana. Sometimes ordering from the food trucks may seem a little expensive, but you are supporting a small “family business.” Check it out!
