Going Back to Our Childhood Memories

What movie isn’t shown in 3d nowadays? Personally, I was getting annoyed by the fact that all movies were being advertised as being so much better with the 3d experience. Let’s see I have to pay more to be wearing glasses that make me look weird and can be uncomfortable at times. Hrmmm…. Nevertheless, if the movie is 3d you can’t possibly do the unthinkable by seeing the regular showing, right? This is true for The Lion King 3D



The Lion King 3D has all the funny moments, tear jerker scenarios and life lessons as the movie we saw as kids. Timon and Pumbaa are still the perfect duo to make any person giggle at their ridiculous plans and cringe at their odd eating habits. Simba and Nala are still so cute with their romantic love blossoming from being just best friends as cubs disgusted at the thought of having to marry each other to the eventual creation of their own family and the leaders of their pride. The hyenas are still as evil as ever, with the slight exception of Eddie who is so ditsy and well not the brightest to say the least. 


The Lion King 3D teaches us a key lesson that is familiar to many of us- Hakuna Matata it means no worries! It reminds us that sometimes bad things happen and there’s nothing you can do about it, so why worry. It is an optimistic approach in life and a definite mood booster when you are thinking what can possible go wrong now and the wrong happens.  


Moreover, Simba teaches us about destiny. He had a destiny he tried fighting. He did not think he was capable of filling his father’s shoes in becoming the leader of his pride. Even when we fight our destiny sometimes we end up the same exact spot we so desperately fought to get away from.  This is a common theme in chick flicks. Sometimes the protagonist tries their best to run away from their destiny and sometimes they embrace their destiny to the fullest. So don’t fight your destiny and go watch The Lion King 3D, it’ll bring back memories from when we were kids living that stress-free life.

Just Go With It

Imagine this. You are at a bar and you overhear a man explaining to the good looking woman sitting next to him that he has not seen his wife in months. She has deserted her duties as a wife and mother to their 15 adopted children. The attracted woman we shall call, Naive, is eating his miserable story up and says he should go home with her so she can show him what he deserves with a seductive look. Off they go to begin their rendezvous. Believable? Only in the movies, so Just go With It.             Jennifer Aniston, Katherine, and Adam Sandler, Danny, play the ideal duo for this movie. She is the assistant of Danny and happens to be a single mother of two children. He is a wealthy plastic surgeon who had his heart broken on his wedding day. Since then he has taken on the life of faking near divorce, neglectful and horrendous marriages in order to persuade these stunning and young women to sleep with him. His perfect plan has continued to work until he meets a particular girl, Palmer,

I feel like I've known you FOREVER.

I feel this immense connection with him. I have to have known him from somewhere. But how we barely met a couple hours ago. But we have so much in common. He makes me laugh. He tells me I understand him. Wow did we just say the same thing at the same time?  Weird! Those are the words that so many of the participants in Married At First Sight gushed about to the cameras in last week's episode. Were those feelings sincere or were they just caught in the moment?  Can you truly feel like you've know someone for an eternity within days or hours or even minutes of actually meeting that person?  I feel like that is true to a certain extent, but then again I think that feeling of being caught in the moment is often intertwined with the feeling of knowing someone for an eternity which leads to feeling that immense connection. I think some people get caught up and just because they grew up watching the same cartoon they instantly feel like, "wow, they're the one it&#

Divorce

Is it really that bad? Bad enough for all if not most of the participants on Married at First Sight to swear that "Divorce is not an option" for them. Even though they have not met their future spouse, they can honestly say they trust the specialists to have found the perfect match for them? That is something I would be so afraid of. They definitely have more courage and trust than I do. I do not think I could honestly say divorce was out of the question if I were in their shoes. Not only because marriage is tough and sometimes it just doesn't work, but because they have no control over who they are marrying. They are being completely set up... and what if they're set up to fail? Then what... As it is you always hear that divorce rates are at 50%, although that 50% statistic is very misleading, if not completely wrong. The divorce rates are closer to 25% for all first-time marriages to end in a divorce. And those divorces do not involve the parties mee
