Okay. I don't know about you, but there's this feeling I get after I watch a really good movie. Yeah, yeah, it was awesome. Yeah, yeah, that was such great writing. But it comes over me the second I start walking down those long steps of the emptying theater. I won't be able to explain it right, but it's almost like an inspiring/motivating feeling. It can be an inspiring happy where you're convinced you could be as sly and quick like the Black Widow and kick some serious booty. Or motivating sad where you basically reevaluate your life. Either way, that feeling makes you want to do SOMETHING. I know after I saw "The Hunger Games" I immediately looked up places to learn archery (Wannabee Katniss over hurrr). Besides archery lessons or karate lessons or "How to be like Kevin McCallister 101," nothing gets me more inspired to do something (write) than (500) Days of Summer. The Movie. And this scene.
Not only do I get that feeling from movies, but I get it from T.V. shows too. Specifically, One Tree Hill. Say what you will about my love for this show, but this show basically got me through middle school and high school. I wanted love like Naley (Nathan+Haley), pour my heart out in 82 letters, and a friendship like P.Sawyer and B.Davis. Hoes over Bros, always! This show taught me everything I know :')
In fact, I needed to feel really inspired before my SATs and decided to watch an episode I thought was appropriate. What was the craziest thing? The episode left me in a certain state where I really thought about things and then when I go to read the essay prompt the next day, it was almost exactly the same question the show had me pondering about.
If you have found it already, there's a song that completely describes your life. Yeah, I know, you could have a lot. But, if you had to choose one song that really just went straight to the core--do you know how serious that is?! But, when you tell someone what it is, you have to try so hard to let the song speak for itself and to hope they just understand you. But, telling someone is some real shizz. It's like telling them you're deepest, darkest secret and hoping they won't judge you. And you know what good 'ol Benjamin Franklin said about secrets, "Three may keep a secret, if two of them are dead."
With that being said, this song isn't that song. This isn't the song that describes my life at all. But, "Slow Dancing in a Burning Room" is the song that I like to blast when I'm taking one of those late-night drives. After I listen to this, I always feel that same un-explainable feeling mentioned earlier.
As of lately, there's this video that's been starting to get to me.
So, lastly, I recommend watching this.
