It seemed like a good idea, only who would I watch them with? Bah. But wait!

Revise the plan, then: watch each movie once on mute, and try to understand what’s going on. Then watch a second time with sound. Master body language in 30 days! Grow your brain!

It’s interesting how they mention mental balance as a strong point. Obviously it is, but to think of those who are struggling with various issues with themselves as weak is a new way to think about it for me.

I like the one for memory, because I had to explain to some idiots how I just throw away useless data, like a hard drive. A lot of times with ChaCha I’ll just take a backseat driver approach to answering the questions, which means I end up getting fragments of whole ideas for various things. One time I was at the beach with my friend and there was some animal there and he said “I wonder if it ____” and I simply had the answer, but not a complete comprehension on the answer.

Anyway, definitely a good article. 30 days of romance movies, eh? I would seriously do that, if I had someone to watch them with. When you come down to RI maybe we can watch Angus, Thongs, and Perfect Snogging. Or maybe we can’t. Yeah. We can’t.
