Happiness

What do we sacrifice on a day to day basis for happiness? Do most of us give things up because that is what is expected of us? I'd answer the latter with a yes. I think that a lot of us give up a lot of things just so others are happy. I know I am guilty of this. I want others to be happy so much that I often do what others want me to do and not what I want to do.

I've been thinking about this a lot lately, and its been helping me make some hard decisions. Now, I don't want to hurt anyone, but I'm starting to do what I want to do. I'm doing what I have to do.

Cause, I just want to be happy.

Barbies are the devil?

Okay, are Barbies THAT bad? I mean, yeah, they are an unreal ideal for young girls, but are they THAT bad. I was having a debate with my mother over this after dinner. She thinks they are bad (now, after my sister and I are all grown, and had grown with them, mind you). She thinks young girls shouldn't play with them and they lead girls to grow with problems. To that I retorted that yes, I have problems (I won't pretend I don't) but none of them are to do with my playing with Barbies growing up. In fact I'd go as far as saying that Barbies are a good creative outlet for young women. I'm a writer, and I came up some amazing stories through my days (and nights) playing with Barbies.I loved my Barbies. I played with them all the time, and I had a lot of them. I loved Dolls but they were never as important to me as my Barbies.

So how is Barbie really that bad. My image problems never steamed from my Barbies as my Mother would have believe. I'd say that in all actuality society is to blame for that. Barbie has had many good jobs, she's never really needed a man (though Ken has been there). She's raised countless sisters (with no parents to boot, which come on is a mircale in and of itself). She is made of different races (or at the very least has friends that are, though in that case they really should make her in other races...do they? I'm confused now...) she helps people, has good manners, and they have yet to make teen pregnancy Barbie (though they did have a pregnant Barbie of somekind in the eighties). Barbie brings fun to girls and boys all over the world. Sure she is gorgeous, but can we call her the devil just because she's beautiful?

I think that we need to stop fighting everything and see somethings for what they are: fun!

Is it only me?

Okay, so I'm trying to make myself a better person. Push my limits so to speak. And one of those things was to face things that used to scare me. One thing I did maybe a year ago (I can't remember the time exactly) was watch Michca Bartons scene from 'The Sixth Sense.' And yesterday (and today) I've decided to watch 'Chucky',  'Child's Play' to be more specific. Chucky was something that scared me. I've never watched one before (with the exception of the end of Bride of...and that gave me weird nightmarish dreams). But when I saw it on my friends Netflixs I had to check it out. But I don't find it scary. Is that me? Isn't this movie supposed to be some terrifying thing. And yes, the doll does give me the creeps, but so far (and I'm a little bit more then half way through), I don't find it that scary.

Maybe it gets scarier as it goes. I don't know, some movies to take a lot before they get going.  I guess I've been expecting that iconic Chucky voice and have yet to see it. Okay, never mind, there it is. Hmmm...reminds me of Danny Devito.


Oh....and was I also the only one to go 'IT'S THE MOM FROM SEVENTH HEAVEN!" lol

Sucker Punch...a spiel

Okay, so I love movies. I know, I know, its no secret if you know me. But if you don't, well now you do. And to me a movie needs a good music, good characters, and a good plot. Sure, it needs small other things but it if it has that then I'm usually enthralled by it.

So guess what movie I watched on Sunday and am going to go to again tonight? Yes, Sucker Punch. Good  readers, you get a metaphorical cookie. I knew I was going to like this movie as soon as I saw the trailer so many months back. And I was right. I was wrong about one thing, this movie is no happy camper movie. So bring lots of tissues. I'm not one to bawl during movies but I did in this. Be warned.

So what makes this movie so great. Well the characters are well done. Well acted, well written. I was surprised with Vanessa Hudgens role and how well she actually pulled it off. I liked Emily Browning before but she brought it up a notch in this for me. I was also really surprised by Jenna Malone. I had no idea she was in the movie until I saw her name in the credits. Wow. Just wow. I won't tell you who she played because I want you all to be surprised. And having to guess is sort of fun.

The music was so good. It went well with everything from feelings to the action around it. And I so bought the soundtrack and have been listening to it constantly. :) It's love, I tells ye. I did go in thinking it was a musical (which it isn't) but I wasn't disappointed. I had read that Emily had to sing so I assumed, but she does sing in the soundtrack and is really really good.

This movie is not for kids. It's dark. It's violent. But its amazing all the same. The plot is creative, its unique and fun. It's a friendship movie, its a movie of personal pain and strength.

Let's just say that I'll be buying this as soon as its available.

GO WATCH IT...oh and if you're afraid of Vanessa Hudgens being all kiddy or whatever, she isn't. She actually did a good job. This is Mental House non musical, not High School Musical.
