Love Actually is all around

So today the thing that I really like is the movie Love Actually. I realize it's a few years old now but I rewatched it today to get into the Christmas spirit and rediscovered how much I like it. It has a really sweet message and is very funny. I enjoy how so many of the people's lives intersect. It is definitely on my list of favourite movies from the last few years. If only for this scene...

In my view, any movie where Hugh Grant does an amusing dance is okay in my book.
Another one of my favourite scenes is from the beginning of the movie, specifically this one...

There are so many little moments in this movie that just amuse me that it just makes me feel good.

Birthday

Today is my 26th Birthday. Yay me! I decided to start this blog today to commemorate the event. Most people look at 25 or 30 as a big milestone birthday, but for me it is number 26 and luckily enough for me next year, 27 is another one (in my mind, anyway). This blog is just a way for me to share things I enjoy doing, watching, eating, and all of those other verbs. It's also a way for me look back on the upcoming year to see how my life has changed (if it has changed at all). I find that sometimes I really enjoy something and always end up telling the same person - specifically my sister, and this is a way for me to share that enjoyment with more than one person. I am a horrible journal writer. I go for sometimes years at a time without a new entry in my journal, but hopefully I will be more on the ball with this blog. I will try to update everyday but who knows how that will go.
