go to the movies alone

I actually LOVE going to the movies alone. It’s still one of my favorite things to do for a treat for myself – buy a snack and see something I really wanted to see that no one else liked.

In college I had a weird schedule where I’d have hours between some of my classes. I didn’t want to go home, so I decided to go to the movies. The first movie I wanted was ‘Solaris’. It was…alright. The second movie I saw alone was ‘How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days’. It was so much fun! I really like going to the movies by myself, but haven’t done so in a few years. I must do this again!

I still have not done this!
During work I was sifting through the paper and was looking at some movies in theatres, but none of them really caught my eye.
Any suggestions?

It was great! It’s really convenient that there’s an independent movie theater on campus….with really interesting not-mainstream movies. I’m making this my new Thursday thing!

but I’m giddy.

Alright. I’ve set the location, date, and time. I know what I’m going to see. The hard part will be: not spilling the beans about my secret rendezvous with myself and inviting someone else (and it’s funny how hard it is to not do that!!!).

My teacher said that going to the movies alone is one of the most liberating experiences she has ever experienced. I want to build up the guts to do this. I probably will go during a week day and definitely not a week night. It would be awkward to run into someone I know on the weekend and them possibly feeling bad for me that I am alone, even if it was my intention! haha =)

today i went but there wasnt good movies, there was only drama movies, so i didnt saw any movie, lol, but i still want to do this and i will do it =)

ive been wanting to do this forever. i’ve set a timeline and the deadline is tomorrow! and im going to do it tomorrow. by hook or by crook! hahaha

I went and saw Juno this afternoon because I had the day off and I was so impressed. Not only was it a good movie, but apparently going to the movies alone in the afternoon is a normal thing in New York City. There were quite a few other solo watchers and it wasn’t uncomfortable at all. I’d definitely do this again.
