A Minha Vida

At Albright College all students must go to 16 expirence events by the end of thier sophmore year in order to graduate. The mission of the Experience Program is to offer programming that highlights and emphasizes the linkages between liberal arts and cultural, intellectual, political and social life of the world outside the walls of the college. Today I went to my first expirence event, it was the Mike Super Magic and Illusion Show. This was a very intersting and enjoyable expirence event. I went with my friends and my girlfriend Naticia. I really enjoyed watching the amazing magic tricks happening right before my eyes. The audience was very involved through the whole show which was a fun expirence. There were some amazing tricks like when Mike levitated a girl in mid air. Another amazing trick was when he got a crushed empty can of soda and closed it uncrushed it and filled back up again with soda, it was amazing. My favorite was the vodoo ritual where Mike grabbed a student from the audience and he lit the doll hands on fire and when the student opened his hands there were burnt marks on his hands. He also poked the doll in the rear end and the student felt it and almost jumped out of his seat. Overall I gave this show a 10 out of 10. It was fun, entertaining, and the audience was always involved in the action. I enjoyed and i encorage those who haven't seen it to see it next year. Until next time, this is Daniel Fonseca signing off.
