Edification During Transportation Movie Entertainment

Thursday, February 9th, 2012

12 Angry Men (1957)As I watched the movie 12 Angry Men, while riding in a shuttle to Park City, I found it entertaining but also socially interesting. Fascinating social behavior can be observed in this movie. One of the most intriguing things was to see how a single minority could persuade 11 other people to see a different view point. I also found it interesting to examine a juror’s resistance to obvious reasons one should change. I thought much about the characters as I was being driven to my hotel. The movie starts off with a jury of 12 people, all white males, who are to decide whether a teenage boy is guilty or not guilty for the murder of his father. A vote of guilty will be accompanied by a mandatory sentence of death. As the jury seeks deliberation, they find it difficult to reach a unanimous vote due to a single dissenter who attempts to persuade the rest of the jury that the boy is not guilty beyond reasonable doubt. Throughout the movie we watch as 11 of twelve men are convinced to change their vote from guilty to not guilty. It was great to learn so much about people while relaxing during my drive from the airport to Park City.

Why People Love the Coral Sea

Thursday, January 26th, 2012

The coral sea resort egypt was one of the bets holidays I have ever been on. Now, I won’t lie, I have OCD, but the staff kept the hotel so clean that for once in my life, I was able to relax. Even the grass was all cut at the same length! I couldn’t imagine a place I’d rather go on holiday. The only thing I could potentially mark them down on is the desserts in the food court. It was all pretty standard stuff that all tasted the same but that’s just the way it was out there and frankly, by the time you had stuffed yourself with all the lovely main courses, there was never any room for pudding! A lot of people we met had actually been there before and I completely see why. Why would you want to risk £1000s of pounds on something that may not match up?

Take Me on an African Safari

Wednesday, November 30th, 2011

I would love to go on an African Safari and I keep asking my husband to take me on one. I think he thinks it is out of our price range but I would like to see if we can make it possible. I have always wanted to go on one ever since we had missionaries from Africa visit us. I was just a kid but I still remember seeing all of their pictures. At that moment I knew I had to see a lot of those animals in person. I am hoping that we can go sometime in the next three or four years. That would be amazing. I am even thinking that we should take my son and his wife too. I know they would love to go too. I just keep dreaming about all the cool animals I will get to see and how neat it will be to see them in person, not just in pictures.

Grenada Wedding Ideas

Friday, November 18th, 2011

I’ve been checking out some suggestions on Grenada wedding ideas. My fiance and I are planning on tieing the knot next year and have found a wonderful hotel that we think is the one for us. It’s located on the north of Grenada and has stunning views of the Grenadines. The hotel is known for it’s romance and the food is meant to be the bees knees.

We are getting excited, with a touch of nerves thrown in for good measure. Even my great grandmother will be there – she has always been a bit of an adventurer so is looking forward to the trip. She quite fancies traveling over on a cruise ship – we shall have to see. She is so young for 94 years!

So, we will need to arrange wedding presents for each other, the hotel bookings and of course the bridesmaids. I’ll have to sort out which clothes to take and wear for our Grenada wedding.
