Warning! This is not an original idea!







Thanks for the idea, bro ;)
Ok, my favourite films... Anyone who knows me well will know how much of a torture this is... Deciding which films are my all-time favourites is almost impossible, as I change my mind nearly every single time I watch a new one. Not to mention that it also depends on my current mood... So, the best I can do is: at the present moment, my favourite films are........



First Category: (yes, I divided them into categories...)
Romantic comedies / drama:
Garden State
(humm, Zach Braff :D)
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
Love Actually
and I can’t help adding Brokeback Mountain which I saw yesterday... and I’m struggling not to add The Last Kiss)

Second Category:
Funny stuff:
Astérix et Obélix: Mission Cléopâtre
Kaamelot
(I know, it is not a film, but it cracks me up)
Monty Python and the Holy Grail

Third Category:
Scary stuff:
I don’t watch scary movies (well, I did see Scary Movie, but you got my meaning), because I have nightmares if I do...

Fourth Category:
Fantasy:
The Return of the King
(there had to be one of these...)
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Askaban (and one of these too...)
Willow (not as much anymore, but I did love as a kid)

Fifth Category:
Animation:

The Nightmare Before Christmas
Corpse Bride
Wallace and Gromit
(no, sorry, I just can’t choose just one)

Sixth (and last) Category:
Action:

Matrix (the first one)
De Battre mon coeur s’est arrêté
Sin City

Phew, this was hard. And I’ll change my mind about half of these in about ten minutes, but well, I did say “right now”, so, there you go... what is your list, folks?

seven more days...

Today, I was observed in my school, and I "finished" my assignment. Now what? I have two possibilities right now: I can either decide that being a teacher is not worth all the trouble it takes, and buy an ice-cream van (Carmen's daydream when she began teaching), or struggle on, and keep wondering if this is the right decision. I honestly don't know. Right now, both solutions have their appeal... Well, come to think of it, I might not have a choice very soon, for instance when Carmen reads my rubbish of an assignment!
Seven more days in that school. Eleven more days before I go back to France. I suppose it IS coming nearer. It is, isn't it?
And, no, I don't really have a light note for today's post. Let me think... hummm.. no, there isn't any, I'm afraid.
