I'm doing 25 things
so i went to see tropic thunder by myself the other day. i learned that whenever someone goes to the movies by themselves they should sit in the back where no one will bother them (unless you want to be bothered) and i learned that it’s really not as sad as i thought it would be. next time i’ll pick a better movie.

i’ve been in and i’ve been to a few wedding over the past year and i didn’t think about it until now but i’ve danced at every wedding (without alcohol involvement)...so i’m checking this one off. i’ve danced in public and had a blast while doing it. it’s nice not to think about what everyone else will think for a while.
