Unnecessary Drama

FYI: The way to my heart is NOT by badmouthing me to my friends.

Whoa Nelly!

As early as the 4th grade, I remember my classmates having boyfriends and girlfriends. For the most part, elementary school relationships were pretty innocent. Couples would hug and hold hands. Then in junior high, these couples discovered what kissing was, and people started bragging about who they got to make out with. Pretty soon, high school started, and the making out escalated into sex. Parents no longer had to chauffeur their kids to the movie theater or to dinner. By this time, teenagers could drive themselves to their desired destination, and hormones were raging.

I guess I was a late bloomer when it comes to relationships. Up until the middle of high school, my love life was pretty much nonexistent. Of course, I still had crushes on boys and daydreamed about being in love. But I was not and am still not ready to give it all up to a guy.

The Proposal

Rating:

I was tempted to give this movie 5 stars. The Proposal is cute and funny. Ryan Reynolds and Sandra Bullock had me falling in love with both of them. This was the kind of movie you could watch more than once and not get tired of it. It’s a great movie to watch with the girls, with the family, or even a hot date.

Only a couple negatives come to mind when it comes to The Proposal. One complaint is that this movie is too much of a chick flick. It’s not something a guy can go see with his buddies. My other complaint is that there were a few parts that left me thinking, “What the heck…?” But neither complaint really bothered me at all, personally.

Overall, I found the movie to be charming, delightful, silly, enjoyable, amusing, and all the other good adjectives you can think of.

Barbeques and Bruises

Lately, it feels like I am constantly PMSing. I don’t know if it’s the summer heat, or all the crap that’s been piling up in my life, but I’ve been excessively moody these past few weeks. I couldn’t help being a huge brat Friday night, and I think my crankiness carried over to Saturday because I woke up feeling crummy. But after crying my eyes out for a good half of Independence Day, I got a text from my good friend Brittany that was surprisingly helpful, considering she was unaware of my then-current mood. A phone call from another good friend Aparna a short while later made me decide to stop being such an emotional wreck. Distracting myself seemed like my only option. So out the door I went… Read more…

Happy Fourth!

…Or not. For whatever reason, I’m feeling pretty down today. Maybe it’s because it’s looking so gloomy outside my window. It’s supposed to rain all day, and the temperature won’t even reach 70 degrees. Looks like we won’t be pulling out the barbeque grills today. Nevertheless, Happy Independence Day =)
