Must Watch Movies

I can't deny the fact that the world is ever changing. It does not take the time to pause, but trudge on in its steady pace waiting for nobody. We are at a time where technology dominates and maybe in the near future, people will be riding in flying cars and living on the moon just like in movies. We are slowly leaving our old ways and adapting to new ones. Personally, I find this change hard to accept. If only I could, I'd have things the way they were but seeing that I can't do much I'll just have to deal with it.

I grew up watching movies that are different from movies of today. I know there are many good movies now but I think everyone should watch some of the movies of the past. They were great. They showed us a life that was simple.

1. Matilda
"This is a story of a wonderful little girl, who happens to be a genius, and her wonderful teacher vs. the worst parents ever and the worst school principal imaginable."

I liked Matlilda when I first watched it. She loves to read books and has telekinesis. I think every children should watch it or else they'd be missing a part of their childhood. This movie is also great for adults, too.

2. Eloise at the Plaza 

"Eloise is a fun-loving six-year-old girl with a knack for finding adventure every place she looks." Eloise portrays a child full of mischievous plans and it's quite fun watching her go through day by day full of adventure. Makes us wanna go back to being a child.

3. Ever After
This is a classic Cinderella story. What I loved about this movie that made me liked it more than the other Cinderella movies is that it happened in a Renaissance era. I have an affinity for past eras like in Jane Austen's time. I never get tired of watching it over and over again.

4. Music and Lyrics
"A washed up singer is given a couple of days to compose a chart-topping hit for an aspiring teen sensation. Though he's never written a decent lyric in his life, he sparks with an offbeat younger woman with a flair for words."

This movie never gets old for me. And the song, too.

5. Aquamarine
"Two teenage girls discover a mermaid in their club's swimming pool."

This movie is about friendship, romance, magic, and separation. Makes me nostalgic.

6. The Princess Diaries
Mia Thermopolis finds out that she is the heir apparent to the throne of Genovia. The road to being a princess was never easy. But one of the things this movie teaches us is that anyone can be a princess.

Three Things

If I ever get to have my own house, there are three things you would see: a library, a kitchen, and a swimming pool.

What's a house without a library? I believe every household should have it because life would be intolerably boring without books. With books it is paradise. I'd like to fill my bookshelves with so many books and then I'd be the happiest girl in the world! I'd make sure to have a room just for my books and have a big chair by the window as my reading corner.

And even though I'm an organized person and hate to see a messy room, I'd gladly have this kind of mess. I consider piled up books on floor as art, not a mess. Tis a wonderful sight to behold!

 I know every house already has a kitchen. I just like to emphasize that I really want to have a kitchen. I don't really know how to cook or bake but I keep thinking that if I have my own kitchen, I can experiment. I don't have to worry about making a mess or breaking any stuff. Heck, it's my kitchen and I can do anything with it. At least that's what I tell myself. I'd like to have a bright and cute kitchen so that I'd be tempted to be there and do something, and not neglect it.

 I don't know how to swim so why would I want to have a pool? Come on! You need not know how to swim to have a pool...right? No, really, the reason why I want to have it is to learn how to swim. I can hire a personal trainer to help me. :) And when I finally know how to swim, I can have that as my exercise. I read somewhere long ago that swimming as a form of exercise has so many benefits and that's the real reason I want to have my own pool. When I'll be too lazy to go out, I can stay at home and use the pool.

These are the essentials for me if I ever have my own place.
