--DON’T HOLD BACK

 
…I have been playing with the cutest puppy ever and now I want a dog.  Everyone should probably have a dog.  A cute one anyway.

…Have you ever seen the movie “Big Fish?”  It’s adorable.  I love it.

“Rent” is not such a great film, though the some of the songs were still able to give me shivers even after having seen the play three times and the movies just as many
