While you were sleeping (1995)

i never get tired of it and it doesn’t even have to be christmas time 🥰 i tend to rewatch tv shows or miniseries more often than movies, but other movie honorable mentions go to You’ve Got Mail (1998), Little Women (1994 & 2019), Somewhere In Time (1980), and The Holiday (2006)

La la land/white chicks

Something fun about me is that I watch maybe one or two movies a year and unless it’s just horrendous it will become a new current favorite. Two that always stand out for me, for better or for worse, are these two. One for comedy, one for heartbreak.

letterboxd top 4

The Wicker Man (1973) - my favorite movie ever. folk horror masterpiece. so beautiful visually, and such a rich text with so much to interpret and analyze its just one of those movies you think about for the rest of your life. Scott Pilgrim vs The World (2010) - unfortunately this movie has gotten a bad reputation so people make assumptions when you admit to liking it but I love this movie. I think its an insanely fun movie to watch, I love how it’s done with the fun comic book/retro video game style, and at its core is a beautiful story about love, change, and growth. Hereditary (2018) - I actually haven’t seen this movie in a long time but I really love the story, I think it’s a haunting family tragedy that transitions into expertly-done horror. I love the occult elements and the symbolism and I’m badly due for a rewatch just for the richness and complexity of it all Goodfellas (1990) - my favorite mob movie ever. Scorsese’s masterpiece. like many of Scorsese’s movies, it’s about a guy hubristically ruining his own life, but its so beautifully shot and written and is so rightfully a staple of the genre.

Doing scary things

I grew up being painfully shy with anyone other than my closest friends. I got sick of that. Over the years I’ve grown into a confident person by doing as much scary shit as I can. If there’s something I find particularly terrifying, like accepting an invitation to attend a clowning class, it means to me I have to just fucking do it. I don’t always end up having good experiences following my fear, but more often than not, I do. And you know, worst case scenario I end up with a funny story? Eating shit is good for you. If there’s something that keeps floating into your consciousness, but you’re afraid to poke it, I recommend walking towards it!

Devin The Dude

I first got into Devin The Dude (shoutout to Houston) during a lil chopped and screwed phase in high school, but it wasn’t until a few years ago that I first heard “See What I Could Pull,” and it caught me. I get obsessed with things, but I’ve never gotten unobsessed with this song. It’s unlike any other song I know of, and it’s stayed in my weekly rotation.

Eva’s x Cinco de Mayo

This place is pretty weird. Even the name–what does it mean? Whenever I come here it’s either completely empty or there’s like three jacked dudes posted up solo in different corners. Before ordering I’ll always read the poster that’s hanging up in full:Working out - is my partyProtein shakes - are my beerPreworkouts - are my shotsThe pump - is my buzz The pain the next morning - is my hangover!I don’t totally understand gym culture, but you don’t have to understand something fully in order to love it. Anyways, the food is good and relatively cheap and it’s one of those restaurants that never has music playing, which I often prefer.
