Food for thought

I'm slowly starving waiting for dinner.... so im blogging.
The weather was beautiful yesterday, and I'm sure glad i took advantage of that and went for a run. Perhaps the track season wont eat me as badly now that i've run at least twice before the season starts. Went to watch Love Actually. Overall, I liked it. Some parts were a tad too explicit, and there were some loose ends at the end of the movie, but nonetheless a likable movie.

Movies these days can really cloud the reality of romance, as well as a warped image of the perfect guy or girl. Chickflick addicts beware: An overdose of chikflicks will leave you unsatisfied with your man/woman cuz nothing they do or say will be as super compared to Mr. or Ms. On-the-Screen.
exerpt: (for girls i guess)
"Suddenly you think all men should be sexy, romantic, dangerous, daring beautiful, etc. The perfect man never has to go to the bathroom, never has gas, and never fights with his love or bugs her. In a two-hour sitting this perfect man saves the world, romances the girl, and takes her on the ride of a lifetime"

According to John Eldredge, Mr. Ficticious is a turn-on due to a girl's "inborn desire to be rescued and revealed as beautiful." Unfortunate for us ladies, Mr.Reality isnt perfect. (nor is Ms. Reality for the guys....) So yeeah... DONT be fooled! In times of misery and despair, chickflicks probably wudnt do you too much good....in fact it might make you drown in your own misery. So for all the chickflick addicts out there "refocus your energy and your mind. Where you put your thoughts, your heart's gonna follow."

I am thankful that I am an action/comedy fan and not a chickflick addict. Just thought that was interesting and thought i'd share. Buut yeah... i still think Love Actually was worth my money.

Anyhooo....
