I love going to see a movie during the summer. It’s an easy way to escape the heat and kill some free time that everyone seems to have more of during these months, and there are usually tons of seemingly good ones to choose from. Recently I’ve seen both Savages and Magic Mike. Okay let’s be honest I wasn’t looking for Oscar-worthy work in Magic Mike. It was pretty mindless with no good acting (only dancing), but highly entertaining nonetheless. I was expecting something more from Savages. It was alright, but I don’t know if it was worth the $10. It was a visually beautiful movie, but some aspects were pretty unbelievable and I really don’t like Blake Lively. Magic Mike probably wasn’t worth it either, but who knows when I’ll get another chance to see Channing Tatum strip on the big screen. Had to take advantage of that opportunity.
On a more positive note, Lydia, Susan, and I had a London reunion dinner at Bacaro Monday night. The last time I saw Susan was in London, so it was great to see her and catch up. After dinner we spent a good amount of time at Lydia’s house attempting to make a stray cat love us, but she was playing hard-to-get. October, I will snuggle with you in the near future!
This summer has gone by so fast, it is troubling to think that I have to return to writing papers and studying (something I haven’t done much of in half a year) in about a month. It makes me want to go out and maximize the time I have left. Let the planning begin!
