At the beginning of this century, most of us were in the peaceful land of elementary school. After finishing a few simple worksheets for the day, we would usually eat some Spaghetti-Os with a Wonder Ball for dessert. We would then settle down with our Beanie Babies to watch our favorite movie. Whether it was for the music, jokes or life lessons, we all had a favorite movie to watch on the big VHS tape.
“When I was a child, my favorite movie was The Little Mermaid because I liked the music and the fact that Ariel got what she wanted in the end. I liked how she knew what she wanted and stayed true to herself and her family.”
