A Rodger's and Hammerstein's musical called "Flower Drum Song" with my mother.  It includes the song "I Enjoy Being a Girl!"

"It uses the faculty of what you call imagination. But that does not mean making things up. It is a form of seeing." - from "The Amber Spyglass"

Just finished watching

 

Lascars: Pas De Vacanes Pourles Vrais Gars (Homies: No Holidays For True Men)

 

Probably one of the best animated movies I've ever watched within my summer.

Imagine if you will being on your death bed – And standing around your bed – the ghosts of the ideas, the dreams, the abilities, the talents given to you by life.

And that you for whatever reason, you never acted on those ideas, you never pursued that dream, you never used those talents, we never saw your leadership, you never used your voice, you never wrote that book.

And there they are standing around your bed looking at you with large angry eyes saying "We came to you, and only you could have given us life! But now. We must die with you FOREVER!

The question is – if you die today, what ideas, what dreams, what abilities, what talents, what gifts, would die with you?

The Giver.

I didn't want to go, having read the book twice for school, I knew it well. A few years ago (seems like forever ago) I was in a conversation with a group at lunch over what book we would like to have made into a movie. A friend said "The Giver!" and I immediately agreed. We talked about how great a possibility it was, having the movie be in black and white and slowly get colors like they did in the book.

Then the trailer. Drones. "What?! Those aren't in the book? Wait.. what is he doing? Memories are transferred from the back not the wrist! D: < !!!11!" 

I did go see it, I wanted to get out of the house. As I already knew from the trailer, the characters all looked different from imagined. Other things were different than imagination, too. I thought the Community would be sealed within a steel dome, which makes more sense for climate control than it being an elevated piece of land surrounded by clouds.

Some of the order was not in the book, but it wasn't that bad. I liked it more than I thought I would, but still, the book is better. If you love the movie, or just love reading, go read The Giver ^^

 

...Kinda went off into a movie review xD
