11 Movies You Should Watch Over Winter Break
wordpress

Do you want to watch a movie, but you're tired of the typical boy meets girl love story? Here are a few of my favorite 'girls loving girls' movies:

1. Imagine Me and You (2005)


Rachel gets married to Heck, then falls for the florist. Imagine meeting the love of your life at your wedding. What would you do?


2. But I'm a Cheerleader (1999)


Megan goes through life not really understanding the hype of having a boyfriend. She comes home one day, and to her surprise her family and friends have prepared an intervention. They tell her they are worried that she might be a lesbian! She is then sent to a gay conversion camp where she learns how to be a real woman.


3. The Incredibly True Story of Two Girls in Love (1995)

The beautiful love story of Randy and Evie. Randy is a tomboyish out lesbian and Evie is one of the popular girls at school. They could never work....or could they?


4. A Marine Story (2010)


Marine officer Alexandra is kicked out of service because it comes out that she is a lesbian. She moves back to her home town and agrees to teach a young, troubled girl about the value of hard work. Watch this movie if you are craving a lesbian movie not centered around a love story.


5. Jenny's Wedding (2015)

This movie focuses on how Jenny's family react to her choice of life partner. It's nice to see a movie from the other side of the coming out process.


6. If These Walls Could Talk 2 (2000)


If These Walls Could Talk 2 tells the stories of three lesbian couples who all live in the same house at different time periods. In 1961 we see an older lady lose her life partner as well as her home because "she isn't family." In 1972 a whole group of lesbians struggle with being accepted into the feminist movement. And, in 2000, two women try to have a baby. (Ellen DeGeneres is in this movie!!)

7. D.E.B.S. (2004)


Basically a parody of Charlie's Angels type movies. See what happens when the criminal falls in love with the woman who is supposed to arrest her.


8. I Can't Think Straight (2008)


Two women from different backgrounds stumble through their feelings for each other.


9. Fried Green Tomatoes (1991)


The movie is not technically gay, but it was based on a book that was, and the subtext is so plain to see it might as well be text.


10. Girltrash: All Night Long! (2014)

What was that? You want a lesbian musical? Well here you go!

11. Boy Meets Girl (2014)


Meet Ricky, a young trans-woman who wants to go to design school in New York. Who, deciding she is tired of men, has a love affair with a new friend.


So get the popcorn, sit back, relax, and enjoy the movie!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
