So, lately, with everything that's been going on in my life, it's got me to think. And I believe, considering everything, both the good and the bad, there has never been another time in my life when I have been this happy. It's not because I'm not facing any challenges or anything like that, because, of course, I definitely am. I don't believe that anyone is exempt from those kinds of experiences. But I am watching as all of my dreams are slowly coming true. I'm not sure exactly how it's happening. I'm not even sure what I did to deserve all these good things in my life, and I suppose that doesn't really matter.
So, I'm going to school at the university of my choice, I have a working car, I have a full-time job that I love, I'm healthier than I've ever been, and I'm dating the sweetest, most beautiful girl I've ever met! Now, when I say that she's the most beautiful, I don't just mean the way she looks, although that is definitely the case too. I mean she's beautiful in every meaning of the word; just who she is. She's kind, smart, funny, and silly, and warmhearted and just a joy to be around. And she also just happens to be unbelievably gorgeous! I can be having the worst day, and just seeing her makes all the negativity instantly go away. I still have a hard time believing that I'm lucky enough to have her in my life. She's a bright light in my life, and just a dream to me. And the best part about this dream is that it's real.

My Opinion of Michael Jackson's This Is It
So, I meant to post a review of this on the night that I saw it, but I never got the chance. So, here goes:
This film was quite simply amazing. I mean, it really was. Fans of Michael Jackson will undoubtedly love this. Open-minded fans of music in general will also love it. The film is filled to the brim with infectious music, and incredible choreographed dancing and visuals. That alone makes it worth watching, and easily one of the most purely entertaining documentaries ever made. But beyond this, it also shows us a personal glimpse of how Michael Jackson works. It's all very candid and real. Seeing this may, for many people, lay to rest a lot of the sordid rumors surrounding the entertainer. But something I respect about this film is that they didn't even approach that topic. The film was concerned implicitly with showing him as something that simply cannot be denied: he was one of the most purely talented entertainers who has ever lived. If it was possible for anyone to embody the concept of music, he did.
Watching this movie was quite the experience for me. I honestly was not expecting much at all. But I found myself thoroughly entertained and immersed throughout the entire two hours. Two hours, by the way, would usually seem like a long time for a documentary. But the music, dancing, and unique insights into perhaps the world's most recognized performer turned this into one of the most entertaining and fulfilling films of any kind that I ever seen. I highly recommend this. I give this a very rarely-given 5 out of 5 stars.
