Funny Girl

I have a new movie obsession, it's actually a classic. Surprise surprise, huh? Anyway, the movie is called Funny Girl. Even though it's about 2 hours long , I could watch it over and over again. Barbra Streisand plays a girl named Fanny who falls in love with a man named Nick Arnstein. I love when she sings , Don't Rain On My Parade, that song can make me smile no matter what kind of mood I'm in. There has been some complaints around my house, because I will randomly start singing that song. But they will have to deal with that for a while until a new movie obsession comes along. Here's a link to watch the scene, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G_g3kkGH8Mo .

Have a blessed day, and go watch Funny Girl!

Finding the Perfect Book

The hardest thing for me is to find a book I can actually get sucked into. That one book, where all you think about is what's going to happen next. I had that feeling when I read the twilight series, I would lay in bed at night trying to fill in the blanks in my mind when I knew I should have been asleep, but I haven't been so attached to one since. People always talk about how they love to cozy up in a sweat shirt and just read, but I have trouble with that. It's like, if I don't like the book I lose interest in even finishing it. So now my new mission is to find the perfect book. While I'm on this hunt I will update about all the books that catch my eye. And by the way, I'm opened to suggestions!

Audrey Hepburn





Obviously by the quote I posted under my blogs name, you can tell I'm a fan of Audrey Hepburn. I've never actually seen any of her movies, but I've read bios on the Internet about her and quotes of things she's said, and from all I've read it seems like she was confident in herself. She felt beautiful, no matter what any one else said. She believed in herself, and her dreams. I look up to her for that. I'm starting to learn that life's not about wishing you were beautiful, it's about knowing it, and owning it. I've lived my life comparing my self to others and wishing I had their eyes or nose. But now I look in the mirror and think, you have something no one else has, be proud of it and embrace it. If God took the time to make you, you must be pretty special then.

Alice In Wonderland.

At the moment, I have been in love with the movie Alice In Wonderland. So in love, I decided to name my blog after it. I know, the things I write about really have nothing to do with a wonderland, but I thought the new name had a certain ring to it.
Basically I'm fascinated with the whole dreamland part of the story, and picturing how I think this magical wonderland looks in my mind. It's great how it's totally casual for Alice to talk to a mouse, while sipping tea with the mad hatter. I have not yet seen the original movie, just the new Johnny Depp version. I am however, reading the book, which I'm loving every word, sentence, and chapter of...

First Post

So I decided it would be fun to start a blog and write about my hobby's and interests in life.


I love photography, it has been a passion of mine for a while now. I also love music. I'm into lots of genres, mostly the coffee house type as in, Norah Jones, John Mayor, Ingrid Michaelson, ect... Though that would be my usual first choice, I have recently been quiet obsessed with music from the Broadway show Wicked. It's kind of like my ear candy at the moment . I would love to go the the show one of these days, but for right now I'm good with just listening to the music of it.
