somewhere..
I've never been one to watch movies and I don't think I've ever watched a movie more than twice, except for maybe the lion king. That is until today. I watched "A Cinderella Story" for the third time today. Now before I get labled a total psycho let me try to explain why.
The story revolves around the life of a 17 year old girl. She's lost both parents and lives with her stepmother now. She works hard, in school, at home, in life. She works hard because it distracts her from her problems and eventualy it will be a way out for her. She's graduating a year early and plans on heading away to college..as far away from "home" as possible.
The girl is a social outcast even though she is beautiful, smart, and funny. I think its more her fault though. She hides. Because of how she grew up she doesnt feel like shes worth much. Then she meets a friend who changes her world. For the first time in her life she feels important, wanted, and special to someone. She finds someone that actually understands her and likes her for who she is. She couldnt be happier until she finds out that the guy is the star football player and the most popular guy in school. He has everything a person could want. Friends, fame, and what seems like happiness. But he's not totally happy..there is something missing in his life and she fills that void for him.
So, whats the problem? She doesnt feel like she fits in his world and thinks she'd be doing him a favor if she just disapeared. She also decides to stand up to her stepmother and go for what she wants for the first time in her life. He cant seem to find a way to fit his old world (popularity, football, his fathers dreams) and the world he wants (to be with her and go to college) together. She tells him that the things he has to do cant be harder than what she had to go through. Finally, he stands up to his dad and gets the best of both worlds and they live happily ever after.
Yes, total chic flick. But I like it and I usualy dont like movies.
Anyways, I've been looking for a document I need to straighten out my college stuff. I've spent the whole day looking for it and I cant find it. I found a bunch of other stuff though. One of the things I found was lyrics to a song from Fival (cartoon movie). I used to sing it sometimes and my sister always said I sang it wrong.. so one day she decided to prove herself right so she printed them out.. and we sang it together and recorded it on my phone. Memories suck in a really awesome way. They also make you gain weight! So far the damage they've done to me today: 3 or 4 big chocolate chip cookies and an ice cream bar.
anyways, these are the lyrics.. pretty sweet..
Fv: Somewhere out there,
beneath the pale moonlight,
someone's thinking of me and loving me tonight.
Ty: Somewhere out there,
someone's saying a prayer,
that we'll find one another in that big somewhere out there.
Ty: And even though I know how very far apart we are,
it helps to think we might be looking up at the same bright star.
Fv: And when the night wind starts to sing a lonesome lullaby,
it helps to think we're sleeping underneath the same big sky.
Together: Somewhere out there,
if love can see us through,
then we'll be together, somewhere out there,
out where dreams come true.
oh and lastly.. something I read today that made me feel good:
