Omigod you guys!

I just finished watching the musical production of Legally Blonde. Marvelous is too short a word for it. I really like it and hope to get the chance soon, like really soon to be able to have a chance to read that book as well. After seeing the movie and the musical, I'm only more convince of the power of the protagonist Elle Woods. I love her for a few reasons. Unlike the controversy that surrounds Ms. Bella Swan of Twilight who is rumored to be a real traditionalist, ms. no interests beyond her vampire boyfriend at all. Elle was like that too. Her goal in life was to get engaged to Warner and then they broke up, and you know the story, she followed him to law school and omigod you guys she found herself. She found the strength to be herself and her passion and suddenly it wasn't all about Warner (prick!) but about what she wanted to do with her life and the realization that she's not just a blonde like everyone labeled her. And she didn't have to turn into a total prude in order to do it. She does it with the pride of every woman who ever felt pretty, but using the best trick to feel beautiful: her confidence. For the longest time, I felt like doing my hair and spending more than 10 minutes on my morning routine was the dumbest thing ever. I misjudged, because I had no clue about the power of appearance with my wanna-be goth attire and hair in a bun. Let's just say I blossom into my looks and I'm making every effort for both my inner and outer beauty to match themselves. Elle brings all this, making sexy smart, because really in order to rule the world, there has to be something more than either just boobs or just books. or just a vampire boyfriend.
