I am a huge fan of Roald Dahl's movies like "Matilda" and "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory". Unfortunately, I have not been blessed with reading his books during my younger years, though I've listened to the songs of "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" in 1979. I just happened to learn when I chanced upon a book in a bookshop that the movies were actually stories by Roald Dahl!
My most loved and recommended movie to watch is Matilda. Please find the trailer below...
I heard so much good reviews about the latest movie, Tim Burton's "Alice In Wonderland" shown March 5th, that I thought of posting a short entry about the story. I have not seen the movie yet, though I would love to see it on the big screen. I heard the special effects and costumes are really fantastic!
This book by Lewis Carroll was one of those books I read as a fifth grader in completion of a required book report in school. Back then, after I indeed read the book, yet thought that a book report meant copying the 1st paragraph and the last paragraph of the story, then adding the book cover description in the middle of those two paragraphs. (honestly!) So you can imagine how short my book report was!
Typical 11-year-old me. All I fondly remember of the story was "Curiouser and curiouser".... :)
I should have written my book report similar to THIS
A Christmas Carol (originally, A Christmas Carol in Prose, Being a Ghost Story of Christmas) is a novella by English author Charles Dickens about a miserly curmudgeon and his secular conversion and redemption after being visited by four ghosts on Christmas Eve.
The book was first published on 19 December 1843 with illustrations by John Leech, and quickly met with commercial success and critical acclaim. The tale has been viewed as an indictment of nineteenth century industrial capitalism and has been credited with returning the holiday to one of merriment and festivity in Britain and America after a period of sobriety and somberness.
A Christmas Carol remains popular, has never been out of print, and has been adapted to film, opera, and other media.

I just love this movie I watched on DVD recently! It sure made me laugh so much!
I've only read a few first pages of the Shopaholic Series and I loved it. Unfortunately, I don't get the chance to sit down and read it up to end so I rented the DVD instead. I've waited for this to come out since we don't go to the movies anymore.
It is a very entertaining movie, teenage-wise, yet it teaches kids and the rest of us to be wise with credit cards and money. Ha-ha, sorry I forgot I never had a credit card.

"Pink*Jeep"as my youngest's favorite phrase when he was little, it's when he's got nothing else to say or when he's simply kidding. Since those were his words of the season, it stuck with us like a common joke! We think it's his pint-sized expression of "supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" :)
