- "Underdog Movies based on real life"
- You root for the little guy because you've never stopped viewing yourself as one.
- "Sentimental Tearjerkers featuring a strong female lead"
- Strong female lead? Hell yeah that's me. And "keep in mind that I'm an artist, and I'm sensitive about my shit." (Erykah Badu)
- "Critically-acclaimed sentimental documentaries"
- For the sociologist in me.
- "Witty Romantic Opposites Attract Comedies"
- Even though I would much rather find someone similar to me than someone who is very unlike me in a great many ways, I love it when the two characters you aren't supposed to expect to get together (except you do expect it because, well, this is a genre) get together.
- "Girl Power Movies"
- Does this really require explanation?
- "Cerebral Suspenseful TV Dramas"
- I like crime dramas and medical dramas because they fascinate me. I want to be fascinated when I watch TV, not just entertained.
- "Inspiring Sports Movies"
- I don't really know what it is about these, because I'm really quite the opposite of a sports fan in real life, but if you give me a movie about a struggling football/basketball team that overcomes its issues as a result of some male bonding and a few impassioned speeches, I will be crying like a baby.
- "Movies About Food"
- I actually laughed out loud at this one. It's "based on my interest in Soul Food and The Spitfire Grill. I mean, I do like food, though.
- "Steamy TV Dramas"
- Mmm, well, I do like steamy...
- "First Love Teen Romance"
- Oh my heart is melting just reading that description.
Inside the mind of a kind of quirky, pretty stubborn, way too opinionated, twenty-something, heteroflexible Black female newly employed up-and-moved-to-DC Princeton GRADUATE who's just trying to sort out her life. An uninhibited celebration of all that is me, this blog is an exercise in self-discovery and live-with-your-heart-wide-open-ness. Though I make respect a habit, I will not always be politically correct, and I believe in the power of making audiences uncomfortable to inspire change.
