Once I started thinking about what my favorite movie was I began to remember all of the good movies I forgot about. So I probably left out some really good movies. I could use some help. I don't think I have many comedies on this list. I know I know some good funny movies. What are some of your favorite movies, especially comedies?
My favorite movie ever is Beauty and the Beast! I love everything about it!!!! The music, the characters, the story, the love! I love it all! =) In fact, for date night this week we are going to see Beauty and the Beast in 3D! Woot woot!!
Ok so I decided that I needed to add one more thing to this post! I just bought the last two Harry Potter movies and thought I should add them.
Nice choice Christine! Obviously I can't pick the same one. I will go with my standard answer to this question. My favorite song is Ants Marching by The Dave Matthews Band. I just checked I have 6 versions of this song in my itunes.
I have liked this song since my brother Drew told me it was cool years ago, around 1994. I am nothing if not loyal to my music. I don't think I have liked any new music since Drew stopped telling me what to like when he moved out. I try to listen to Christines music and I am slowing get used to hearing new things.
Well here it is again! Another 30 day challenge! I think I am going to try and do it just for the heck of it. I am not promising that it will be in consecutive days! =)
So here we go...
Day 1- Your Favorite song
Hmm.....this is a great question.
Throne Room (Star Wars)
I picked this one because every time I hear it I smile and I get the goosebumps. Some of you might remember that this is what my bridal party marched to in our wedding! =) It was so much fun to see the look on my bridesmaid's faces when the song started! Especially my sister-in-law, Catherine. She was the first one to walk out, I believe. I remember her looking back and me and saying "seriously?" Haha! Even though it is a Star Wars song, it has some very beautiful instruments! I just love it!

We had to do date night a little early this week because I have a baby shower to go to tomorrow. It was Adam's week to plan it and he decided he wanted to go to the Nickelcade. We have gone to this one a few times and we always have a blast. I love going because I feel like a little kid again! I even won Adam a cute little stuffed hippo! It was out of one of those claw machines and I got it on the FIRST try! I was pretty excited about it!! We also had dinner with Adam's parents which is always wonderful. I have really awesome in-laws by the way! Anyway...stay tuned for next week to see what I plan! =)
Today was my first day at my internship for recreational therapy!! I am working on a psychiatric unit at the hospital that I work at already. I was really nervous and excited all at the same time! I got there and found out that Jaimie (the lady I am working with) doesn't get in until 9:00 am on Wednesday! Oops! Luckily, the other recreational therapist was there and I was able to follow her around for the first little while. When Jaimie got there we did a group where they watched a movie about addiction. We went on a fresh air walk with the patients. We walked outside for a minute and came back in. Then we went to lunch and came back and did stretches with the patients. After that, a nurse that works on the floor did a group where we talked about thinking errors. It was an excellent group. She talked about how we get into cycles of negative thinking. The last thing we did was go on another walk with the patient.
It was such a wonderful day. I could not stop smiling all day. I knew that I had made the right decision to make recreational therapy my career path. School has been so difficult for me and I wanted to give up so many times. I am so lucky to have such a wonderful husband, fantastic family and friends, and great mentors that have helped me get to this point. Now I know that it was all totally worth it. I hope that I can perform well and become a great recreational therapist!!
I am so excited to see what will happen in the next 4 months. I will try and keep my blog updated with how it is going! =)
Today has been a pretty long and awesome day. I had to do a crisis prevention training for my internship that I am starting next week! Oh man! I am super excited and super nervous! For those of you who don't know about it, I will be working on the psychiatric unit at University Hospital with a recreational therapist for the entire semester! It is going to be a long and trying semester because I will also be working at my regular job. That is TWO full time jobs! Anyway...the training was great. I learned some new stuff and hope that I will survive the next few months!
So this week, we decided since I won't have much of a life that we would make our date night a game night. This way I could see some friends and have some fun before next week. A few people came over and we had some food and played Squint.
Squint is kind of like Pictionary except they give you obscure shapes to make the picture with. It is kind of fun! It took Adam a long time to talk me into learning this game but I am liking it the more I play it. We did a couple rounds of that!
Then we decided to play Apples to Apples!
I think most people probably know how to play this one. But the gist of it is on your turn you pick an adjective and everyone else puts down a card that they think you would pick to go a long with that adjective. It can get pretty funny especially when no ones cards make any sense!
Then, a few more people showed up and we played a round of Apples to Apples with them. I soon learn that they had brought a game too! They had brought Monopoly Deal, which is a game I had never heard of before!
This game is so much better than actually Monopoly! I think Monopoly is way too long and my hubs thinks that he will destroy me every time so we don't play it alone. Haha. In Monopoly Deal, you get cards and the goal is to get 3 full sets of properties. It was super easy to learn and it went pretty quick! You can still "destroy" people but it is so short it is easy to get over! ;)
Overall, we had a great time! =) I hope that the next few months go by quickly so that we can have another game night! Happy weekend to everyone!
