I hate that I....

Day 4 - Habit that you wish you didn’t have.

I really enjoy watching movies! Scary, sad, happy, chick flick, zombie, war, feel-good... You get the idea.

My problem is when I am watching the movie, I really get into them! I forget that I am not actually involved in the story and the characters can't hear me.

I remember watching a movie with Dru and Erin and it was with the super scary bear scene. I literally jumped up and screamed at one point because I was scared of the bear too! I saw "Marley & Me" in theatres and thankfully it came out when it was cold outside and I was wearing a thick sweatshirt that almost covered up my heaving sobs - I mean I was very loudly sobbing - it was awful!

I feel that I have gotten pretty good at covering up my "problem" by creatively shifting in my seat or getting blankets. One time I went into the kitchen and starting making a dessert...

It's getting better and I don't think that people really notice how much I get into the film unless it is the crazy sobbing! Still need to work on that one!

So, there you have it! I am confessing my darkest secrets!! Ha ha!

Top of the World - -

That's right - I am on Top of the World...

These past few weeks have been amazing! I totally rocked MBL last month and now have my family shaking in their boots...

Bootcamp is sadly over for me so maintaining what I have gained is going to be completely on me! I am a little nervous, but I learned some awesome moves that I can do in the comfort of my freezing basement room.

In other aspects of my life, I started watching a series that a friend let me borrow. I found myself within the first few minutes covering my head with my blanket!! By the end, I was on the other side of my bed half on and half off! I am nervous to watch the other episodes because the first one really had my skin crawling!!

I have a terrible habit of getting sucked into movies and then I forget that I shouldn't stand up or yell when something is going on because it is pointless. The other night I was watching a scary movie and at one point realized I stood up because I was nervous, so instead of looking like a complete idiot in front of a friend (which I probably did anyway, ha!) I went to the bathroom to "look for something."

In order to work on not getting so worked up in the movie that means that I have to watch more, right?

Little bit of a nerd...

I am confessing that I am a little bit of a nerd. I know - SURPRISE!!!

Lately I have been watching a few series by Joss Whedon and LOVE them. I am currently watching Angel which stars Booth from Bones. I also watched a scary movie about zombies, which although scary was excellent!

I decided sometimes it is alright getting in touch with your inner nerd. Try it sometime and you might be surprised at what you enjoy! :)
