Inkheart

I just watched this movie about a week ago and i loved it. I had really wanted to see it but some how i didn't think it would make it to my expectations, but it totally did! I loved it because it described reading wonderfully and the whole story was very good. The acting was good also and i liked each character that was brought to life. I really loved this portrayal of Fluke's book.










Confessions of a Shopaholic


I really loved this movie. It is funny, cute, and i loved the clothes. The story line was very simple but it had a good and nice twist to it. It is very appropriate for little kids. And i just had fun watching it. I love Isla Fisher as an actress, she is just so cute and funny.

Beginning Paragraph

and This Should Be Hard

"Now, what i want is, Facts. Teach these boys and girls nothing but Facts. Facts alone are wanted in life. Plant nothing else, and root out everything else. You can only form the minds of reasoning animals upon Facts: nothing else will ever be of any service to them. This is the principle on which i bring up my own children, and this is the principle on which i bring up these children. Stick to Facts, sir!"
