Globes, SAGS, Oscars- yes

This is my favorite time of the year! Can I just say that I absolutely freaking love movies. I love them all. I would say it is my weakness big time.

My husband and I get so excited during this time of the year because it is when great movies are released and we spend waaayyy too much money seeing them all. But I absolutely love watching actors and actresses give us a great performance in roles where they can refine and stretch their skills. I literally get excited for them.

This year one of my all time favorite actors who I am gushingly and ridiculously in love with was up for nominations this year- Leonardo DiCaprio. He is the studliest of stud muffins and I have loved him since the day I saw him in Titanic. Well, my husband and I went to go see him in the Wolf on Wallstreet. Don't judge me, I, shamefully, did not even look up the rating or reviews on IMDB and IF I would have I probably would have definitely not went and saw it. But I will warn you- DO NOT. I was so ashamed and my husband and I left the theater.

It is the first time I have ever walked out of a movie at a movie theater and I found myself almost feeling embarrassed to even be there in the first place. Embarrassingly enough I went home and almost cried about it because I was so disappointed in my Leo. My husband thinks I am ridiculous but, seriously, he broke my heart haha

Anyways, it totally brought me back to High School. You know, in youth group where they get you all pumped up about "doing the right thing" and it seemed so silly and easy- but even as an adult, we have to do what's right and sometimes it is disappointing and hard, but it's the right thing to do and in the end, you feel cleaner.

So here's to being a BIG KID and walking out of my first movie in a movie theater. But I am glad I did and I don't regret it :)

  1. I walked out of my first movie this summer with my husband. I was so nervous to do it at first (what would people think? would people notice? was I being silly?) But we were so glad that we did. Other people have seen the movie we walked out of and LOVED IT, but I don't care... It did not meet our standards and there is no reason for anyone to be ashamed of living their standards. Good for you girl!!
