This is the twisted fairy tale of an ogre named Shrek (voice Mike Meyers). The movie tells a story of an ogre who suddenly looses his beloved swamp to a bunchful of fairy tale characters. To get his home back without any interference, he confronts Lord Farquaad (voice John Lithgow), the short, cruel, self-absorb prince who really wants to be a king. Lord Farquad then cuts him a deal, if Shrek could bring him Princess Fiona (voice Cameron Diaz), who is captured in a tower with a dragon guarding it, then he gets him swamp back. Shrek then goes the rescue with a donkey, Donkey (voice Eddie Murphy), who he saved previously from the clutches of Farquaad's army. So...to cut the whole thing short, along the way, Shrek finds friendship and love.
I really love this movie, which is based on a book with the same title. This is not the common fairy tale read to you for bedtime stories. This is twisted (in a good way) and pretty much in touch with reality. My favorite bit is when Princess Fiona says she supposed to be beautiful - she's an ogre now (a curse is involve in it), Shrek replies "But you are beautiful". Awwwww, it just melts my heart. Now if I could just find a man who would say that to me.

Sex and the City
This is the famous series on HBO which stars Sarah Jessica Parker as Carrie Bradshaw, Kim Cattrall as Samantha Jones, Cynthia Nixon as Miranda Hobbes, and Kristin Davis as Charlotte York. The stories mainly based on a titular column on a New York newspaper, written by Carrie Bradshaw. This is a very good series. The four girls are different personalities. But they are all best friends who support each other, although sometimes they gotten into a fight. Like one time when Charlotte made Samantha upset because of her remarks on Sam's sexual activities. Or when Miranda got pregnant, while Charlotte was trying to be but failed. The series now reached its' final season, and is now on fall break before entering the winter season. This is totally a girl power series, a must watch for all of you single (or not) girls out there!!!
