Some people are completely weirded out by the thought of going to a movie by themselves. I don't really understand this. My hubby is not a huge fan of girly movies. I'm aware of this, so whenever I get a craving for a girly flick and my mommy-in-law is indisposed (she was at work), I treat myself to a solo date. This is not a problem for me. As a matter of fact, I did this a few times in my college undergrad years too. I even took myself to a sit-down dinner once. :)
I wonder if this is a function of how comfortable a person is with themself. Or maybe some people are just not comfortable with silence, so they feel the need to constantly surround themselves with others. Today I spent the entire day by myself. I read and painted my finger nails. It was just Lucien and I while Justin slept and then went to work. It was kinda glorious.
Anyway, I saw Easy A. It was cute. I like Emma Stone - she's sassy and cutting, and I dig it.
I also saw The Social Network a few nights ago. That one was really good. Jesse Eisenberg and Andrew Garfield play the leads as cofounders of Facebook. Some of it moves quickly, so be prepared to keep up with the conversation. I thought it was really well done.
I <3 going to the movies and out to eat alone! It's all about self confidence. Some people are just so concerned about what other people are thinking. If I want to do something, I am not going to sit around and wait for someone else. I might miss the opportunity.
ReplyDeleteGood for you! LOL I can't wait to see the Social Network. Hopefully I will get to see it on Friday. ;-)
That's my second favorite thing to do by myself!
ReplyDeleteJK. Really. ;)
LOL @ Raquel!!! ;)
ReplyDeleteYou are so brave! I don't know if I could go to a movie alone and even though I realize it's a sign of insecurity, it's not something I think I can shake! It's definitely not a "company" thing, though, because I love being home alone when I get the chance. Reading and painting your fingernails with Lucien? JEALOUS! :)
ReplyDeleteI see movies alone a lot. It is really relaxing. I even got a pick up note once. :)
