Going to the Movies - Alone

Going to the movies shouldn't sound like a challenge. However, if you knew my husband and I, it can be. We don't agree on the type of movie to watch together. He likes action and I like stories that involve some sort of story line or a movie that evokes emotion. So we just don't see movies.

However, that changed today. I went to the movies myself. I saw "The King's Speech". It was an interesting experience. I think the guy at the counter thought I was with someone because he looked at me a little strange when I said I only needed one ticket.

When I've gone to the movies with someone, I never have to think about where to sit. When I was alone, I had to think about the most inconspicous spot and not to arrive too early. However, after that was figured out, I actually got to enjoy the movie. I would recommend it to anyone who hasn't seen it.

I learned that it is possible for me to do things I enjoy alone. After all, it's better than waiting for someone to go with you or arguing about your likes and dislikes.  I also learned that I may be a little quirky, but I can do my own things quite easily. I think I'm going to enjoy doing more things by myself in the future.

Thanks for reading.
