Local Spotlight: Woodland Mall

where almost every middle school and high school kid shops

Woodland mall is a half mile south of Calvin, and although it’s not the largest mall in the city (Rivertown mall in Grandville is larger), it’s got everything most people need. Well, except groceries. But people living in the dorms don’t need to worry about that because they have dining halls. Only us old blokes buy groceries and cook food.

Clothing? Check. American Eagle, Banana republic, j crew, etc. it’s the center of American fashion. And because it’s American fashion, none of it fits me *sigh* Maybe if I gain 50 pounds and grow 4 inches taller, I can move out of the children’s section.

Movie theatre? Check again. The world’s most movie obsessed culture has a Celebration Cinema at Woodland mall. however, this cinema’s special; it shows past movies for a mere $3. I watched 21 there not too long ago. Cool movie, but I don’t really have the attention span for most movies.  The whole idea of sitting there for 2 to 3 hours makes me shudder a bit.  I just want to DO something productive and make the fun happen, not sit back and let directors dictate what’s fresh and exciting through formulaic Hollywood plotlines.  oh, here’s a spoiler for 21… it’s a happy ending.
