Rec | GOING TO THE MOVIES ON YOUR OWN

i know this isn’t a new concept but i went to the movies on my own for the first time today (i saw “civil war”) and i genuinely enjoyed it :D you get to take your time getting ready and when to show up at the theater and you can get your own popcorn… a very fun movie experience (especially if the theater is mostly empty :D)

finally caving and just going on my own to the movies ended up being the best decision, had such a nice time and I realized there’s just some movies I’d rather watch alone and really pay attention to first time around, so why not still see it on the big screen

I'm at the point now where I actually prefer going on my own, for exactly those reasons. I like to stay through the credits, and I don't have to think about anything except the movie. Especially if it's a heavy/thought provoking film and I wanna just be in my head for a while

going to movies alone

i’m sure this has been rec’d a million times, but i went the cinema alone for the first time today and it certainly won’t be the last.

going to the movies alone

i get why people only think of movies as a social event, but seeing a movie in a theater alone is the most freeing and therapeutic thing that i do in my day to day life. gone are the moments of trying to pick something that you think a group of people would like. gone is the anxiety of always thinking about what your friend is thinking of the movie as it’s going on. it’s just you and the movie. i love it

eating cake for no particular reason

last week i bought a costco chocolate cake because i felt like it, and it was so good and it brought me so much joy. sometimes one needs to eat cake for breakfast. and that’s okay.

going for walks

i've been going on walks recently instead of going to the gym (i keep getting sick after going to the gym for some reason..) but i find it so peaceful, especially now that it's warmer and the flowers are blooming outside :D

writing in a journal

i’ve kept a journal since I was in elementary school and i love having a record of what was going on in my life at different points in my life, and also noticing how i handled situations and how my thought processes have changed over time. keep a journal! it’s a great way to record your life :)
