So I am on movie # 2 for the day (obviously not making much progress on work). The first was FAME, and now Flicka.
FAME always makes me think. If you live under a rock and are not sure what it is, FAME is the story of 4 years in a performing arts school in NYC. It shows the trials and tribulations of being in a program like that and is just a little to close to being right. Every time I watch that movie, I always end up thinking about my four years at UNCG. It is too funny that at the begining of the year when it came out, I was in tears because I hated that life and wanted something else, now it is because I can see that just like the kids in the movie, I have overcome most of it and I am going to learn how to fly.
Flicka is a horse movie and one of those that I typically don't let people know I own and am just a bit obsessed with. I originally got it for the horse aspect (I have always LOVED horses but have only been able to ride once in my life) but the whole breaking in a wild horse and following your dreams aspect is pretty good too :)
So here is what I am going to do from the cinema inspiration... I am going to keep pushing through December (and beyond of course) and try to keep the freedom and peace that I found on that horse 7 years ago. Maybe this time we might even run rather than just trot...
