The
Incredibles
Mr. Incredible is a superhero; or he used to be until an onslaught
of lawsuits initiated by the people they saved forced the government
to hide them in witness protection programs so they could lead
normal lives. Now known by his secret identity, Bob Parr, he lives
with his wife, Helen, who used to be Elastigirl, and their three
children Violet, Dash, and Jack Jack. He works as an insurance
claims specialist, and he's fed up with his pushy boss and his
unethical profession, but his wife's worked too hard to create
a normal life for their family to go back to being superheroes.
When Mr. Incredible is offered the chance to play the role of
a hero again by a mysterious informant, he jumps at the opportunity,
but when it turns out to be a trap set by an old nemesis, the
whole family must reveal themselves to save Mr. Incredible and
countless innocent people. In theatres November 5th!

HOBBIES
This
month’s feature is something very dear to me. It is playing
a musical instrument. I play bass guitar and electric guitar.
I’ve been playing bass for 6 years and guitar for 2 years.
I wanted to learn to play bass guitar when I was in the sixth
grade. During that year, I was exposed to various types of music
and I realized that I liked rock music the most. And of course
the most essential instrument in a rock band is the guitar. So,
that’s what I chose. I appreciate all types of music but
I am a rocker at heart.
Playing a musical instrument is said to increase your aptitude
in math and help increase your concentration. Not to mention you
develop the ability to create some rockin’ tunes! You can
get private lessons or join the band at your school. You can buy
a guitar at the Guitar Center (www.guitarcenter.com)
or, if you prefer a different musical instrument you can go to
Sam Ash (www.samash.com).
