"One for Remember Me, please"
Just one. Today, for the first time (of many to come I believe), I went to a movie all alone. I wanted to see 'Remember Me' so badly, I figured, why wait for anyone to accompany me? I knew people would probably think, 'aw, poor girl has no one to go with' (I know I do that). But I LOVED it! I went up to that ticket counter and asked for one ticket, and was totally fine with it. I sat down in a row by myself, and was totally fine with it. I cried by myself, and was totally fine with it. People might look and stare, but ya just have to have the confidence and own it. I think it's going to be a new hobby of mine in fact. I don't exactly why, but it was almost liberating to go alone to be enraptured by the movie.
On another note- Remember Me was a fabulous movie. It's not a sappy love story that I thought it'd be, it actually does have depth to it.
Today was the perfect setting... after it was over, I stepped out into the rain, sat in my car and cried for another 5 minutes while the rain pitter-pattered on the windows... and everyone knows that's the best way to cry.
A good reminder from the movie:
"whatever you do in life will be insignificant but it's very important that you do it"
