happy making...
Mar. 22nd, 2008 11:58 pmI have pulled out my surefire happy-inducing movie to watch. I pulled out Miracle, which is the 1980 Olympic hockey team story. As a girl who was going to Flyers games from the womb and has been obsessed with hockey her whole life, I adore this movie so very much. I remember watching this game with my dad when I was four years old. I remember cheering and chanting "USA" (I was *four* and easily swayed by promises of being tossed in the air), but I didn't really get it until later.
And I just love how these guys accomplished something that no one thought was possible and with sheer determination and hard work, they were able to do it. And it makes me believe that anything is possible.
Plus, the movie has really cute boys. And nothing can ever go wrong with that.
Anyway, if you've never seen the movie, I highly recommend it. And if you don't find yourself cheering and clapping at points (and yes, I know how it turns out), I'm not sure what I think.
I also watched The Seeker: Dark is Rising tonight. Nowhere near up to par with the amazing books and they took some weird liberties with the movie that I'm not sure I really understood the point of. Overall, not nearly as terrible as I expected and it had Nine from DW.
As my friend, Jason, said to me the other day. It really does come down to hot boys with me.

Can someone give me the html code so that I can add one of those boxes with info that can be copied into comments? It's for something fun I'm working on.

With everything that's going on lately, I feel that I should remind people where else I can be found.
Insanejournal: tommygirl - I use this account a lot. I don't crosspost, mostly because I never think to use semagic, except for stories.
Journalfen: tommygirl - I mostly just check my friends list there for those that moved over there.
I still have greatest journal, but it seems to have tons of issues, so I just don't sign in there anymore.
