Number one on my list is to run a 10k. Now for those of you that know me, I'm not exactly about to go walk a 5k tomorrow. So what I want to do is build up my strength and stamina while burning the weight. I started this today with my good buddy Clay but doing 20 minutes on the bike. As tired as I was this morning, it felt great to go to the gym and get it done. It wasn't as hard as I thought it would be, but that means I'm gonna keep working harder.
So I realized that in order to watch 100 movies (number 21 on my list), I would have to watch about two movies a week. I'm a little short on that number right now but I did watch two movies. I started with a movie I haven't seen before, 'The Grapes of Wrath'. I guess what struck me about this movie was how simple it was made yet how touching it actually was. There was no special effects. No one turned into a robot and flew about to save the world. It was just a story of a family. After the conclusion, it made me realize how much I wish movies were more simple.
And with that, the second movie I watched was 'Lord of the Rings' - FULL of special effects. Having seen the movie many times, I paid more attention to little details. Like have you realized that Frodo gets stabbed a LOT! Poor like hobbit. A lot of people love this story and I am one of them. What I really like most about it is it's about friendship. Frodo and Samwise. No matter what Frodo does, Samwise is right there watching over him. I think that shows a lot of dedication and true fellowship.
Finally, number 30. No, I didn't get a kiss from Adam McQuaid. But for the people who don't know who he is, he's a hockey player from the Bruins - take a look here.
