Penny for your thoughts

Happiness comes in many forms -- in the company of good friends, in the feeling you get when you make someone else's dream come true, or in the promise of hope renewed. It's okay to let yourself be happy because you never know how fleeting that happiness might be.

->Ok so far i've seen 23 films, 15 of which i have watched prior to seeing this list, 4 - out of boredom (you know how at home you all of a sudden see old VCDs lying around and tend to watch them) and 4 - upon seeing this list. All of them are great , of course that's why their on the list, but i 'd have to say my favorite ones would be, The Godfather I and II, Citizen Kane, The Shining, The Wizard of Oz and Finding Nemo!! 

Next on my list would be :

*The Shawshank Redemption (thanks to TV links)
*Life is Beautiful (thanks to my friend Mike who let me borrow his VCD)  

Look's like i got a long way to go..

About

Hi Im Penny. Im a Solutions Architect slash Subject Matter Expert in some big company working for another big company that deals with transmission of digital data through loops and loops of the local telephone networks in the US. Welcome to my, little as it may be, space on the interwebs where I attempt to paint a picture of what goes on in my brain using words. A rather futile effort in making boredom seem interesting. Prepare to be amazed! Well, NO, not really.
