Hope your new year has been off to a better start than mine - I had to work yesterday and everything that could possibly go wrong, did. Was not impressed!
So, time to set out some resolutions, but first let's see how well I did on last year's goals and ambitions:
2007 New Year Resolutions:
* Get full license after 5 years on my restricted. (Nope. Have readded it to this year's list though)!
* Find a man who won't cheat on me. Just for a change. (Sigh. Nope).
* Tone up tummy so I can.... (Ha)!
* Get belly button pierced. (Have chickened out and decided against the idea).
* Start saving for my Italy trip. (Now saving for USA trip instead).
* Get dvd collection up to my former video collection's standard. (Getting there - not helping with the above resolution though)!
* Get all 72 of Cary's films on dvd. Only 61 to go. Dammit. (Now have 24 / 72).
* Work my way through the Kama Sutra ;) (Did I write that?!)
* Become a real domestic goddess and learn to cook. (I can bake extraordinarily well)!
* Turn 21 again, and actually have a party this time! (Yes! My 22.5th party)!
Ok, so hopes for this year:
* Get full license.
* Get back to the gym and last a whole year this time!
* Master wings (a tap step where you sort of jump and brush your feet out to the side on the floor and back in before you land).
* Get tough with myself and live on a shoestring so I can save for the USA.
* Learn to cook now that I can bake.
* Try and see at least one film a week.
* Learn to sew so I can make my own cute Rockabilly dresses.
And now a movie review:
Enchanted. Went to the late night session with my friend Rach and we had the whole cinema to ourselves - yay! At Chartwell even!
And we LOVED this movie. This is a real kids' film with no adult innuendo at all. So refreshing.
It was however a little scary we both decided and we did jump a couple of times!
But oh so sweet. Amy Adams is just charming as giselle, the fairytale princess who gets pushed down a well by her fiance's evil stepmother and finds herself in New York City.
Lovely songs and costumes and a gorgeous wee girl with a cute toothless grin.
Did not however like the cockroaches. EEEEEWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!! Not cutie cutie!
Susan Sarandon however stole the show as the witch. She also had the best role, with lots of dramatic entrances and exits and some stunning costumes. Very cool.
Some people may say it's too sweet, but I liked it. Made me recall the days where I was as naive and optimistic as Giselle, before discovering that the real world is not a pleasant place to be.
Thouroughly reccommend it. Go see it!
