AN ANALYSIS AND DISCUSSION ON EVERYTHING MOVIES
If I had to describe exactly who I am, I would say that I'm someone who is shy but still loves people, someone who is naive but still intelligent and someone who likes to dream but still tries to think practically. I grew up in CT on the shoreline in a little town called Westbrook and I currently still live there. I spent most of my childhood playing with toys and friends, drawing pictures and constantly asking my parents silly questions. I guess I was a pretty normal kid for the most part. I have a half brother named Kyle who's eight years older than me. He was pretty protective of me growing up. He taught me some life lessons like how to ride a bike and how to rap to Eminem as a seven-year-old. Yeah, I probably shouldn't have been listening to his music back then. But he used to blast the stereo in his room, so it's not like I could really avoid it! This isn't my first blog. Over the summer, I created a music blog called WAVES OF STEREO https://wavesofstereo.wordpress.com/ I post music billboard reviews as well as album reviews. I really have no excuse as to why I haven't updated the blog lately. I should really post a new billboard review, especially now that it's the new year. I've loved to write since about the fourth grade, and I aspire to make a living out of this. Specifically, I would like to combine my fascinations with both writing and storytelling to become a writer for film or television. It's not the most stable path to pursue, but I'm still young and I'll only live once, right? So why not try? The first movie I can ever remember watching and the one that still remains my all time favorite is The Wizard of Oz. The picture to the side is of me as a two-year-old dressed as Dorothy for Halloween. Movies have always been a big part of my life. I've always been a worrier from as far back as I can remember. I can get quite anxious and it's often difficult for me to let things go. What if I mess up on this? What if that person hates me? What if I come off as too weird? What if I wind up alone with no family of my own? Fortunately, I've noticed two major things that have helped me escape my own head. Exercise and watching movies. I get invested in the story, and I become hyper-focused. I suddenly stop thinking about my own worries and become completely absorbed in the main character's life. So this brings me to the question: why am I making this blog? Well I would say I'm making this for two reasons. I love watching movies so it's naturally fun for me to talk about movies. But also, if I really want to get serious about being a writer for film or television, I'm going to have to do my homework. I need to be a heavy consumer and I need to stay in the loop with what's going on in the film business. I want to start a dialogue with my readers. Almost everyone enjoys a good movie now and then, and I think we often enjoy talking about our experience. I hope my audience can relate to and be somewhat entertained by my posts regarding my thoughts and personal experiences with movies. And I hope that my posts will encourage my readers to share their own ideas with me about film. Let's connect with each other through our shared passion for movies! Let's analyze and review films, let's talk about our favorite pictures and scenes, let's talk about the industry! There's so much we can delve into and explore, so let's have some fun together!

AuthorI'm just a twenty-year-old aspiring writer who loves everything movie related. You can call me Emily, or Em for short. I'm a little quirky in real life. At least that's what other people tell me. Archives
