Challenge Day 14: A Movie You Love

So today has been pretty good overall. We had our school dedication today and so it was a little bit more of a be flexible day, which is sometimes a good thing. I really think that my favorite part of the whole thing was when we were saying the final Our Father and this little four year old who was standing next to me, leans to talk to his grandma about this special treat that he got in preschool today (it's a bag with the pumpkin corns and candy corns and it has a story about how the candy corns are the pumpkin poop) and the whole crowd was like dead silent and he goes "This is my pumpkin and these are it's poops!" Not terribly loud, but loud enough for me to really have a hard time not rolling over laughing.

Mel and I have started a new initiative to go to the gym every day since my soccer season is about up. Prob should've been going even during soccer season lol buttttt whatev (it so didn't help that one of my students parents is a body builder and she came in today and was like "I'm prepping for a new show and I'm up to 3 hours of cardio a day" - yeah try not to feel like crap after that!) It felt good so that's all that matters! Plus I'm dying to get back to pyramids!We watched all the news on Hurricane Sandy, which was really terribly sad, and my prayers go out to all of those families!

But (not to diminish what is going on) it is the first time I've really watched the news in forever, and the local news totally broad casted the opening dates for the SKI RESORTS! Wooohoo! I can't wait (and it's really only like 3 weeks away!)!

Anyway on to today's challenge :)

I had to narrow it down to 2, which was actually like 4, but it was a real toss up between Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, and Pirates of the Caribbean. And of course, Moulin Rouge. I HATE favorites. Seriously.

Eh hem, here we go.

Pirates of the Caribbean Series

So when I was little, and we went to Disneyland, this ride must've made a huge impact on me because I didn't go from about the time I was 6 till I was a sophomore in high school and it was one of the only rides I really remembered. It was closed, by the way, when we went, to update for the movie! I love these movies, in fact I wanna say my like 13th or 14th birthday was POTC themed (they always came out during July). I think my friend Amy and I watched these over, and over, and over again! Still love them :)

Moulin Rouge



So I don't know how much I can say about this movie other than it's been like one of those movies I can't get away from. When it first came out, my parents went to see it while my sister and I went to see Herbie I think (the one with Lindsay Lohan). After our movie ended, theirs hadn't so we went in and watched the rest and I remember thinking "Wow, this is weird..." When it came out on VHS (oh yes, we just got rid of that version lol) my dad bought it and we got to watch it for the first time and I instantly loved it! I love the story line and the actors and the music! This movie can't stay off my top list of movies - ever. And if you've never seen it, you best be out renting it! It'll change your life :)
