So it's been a while since I posted here. No, no, I didn't forget about you or the blog. I've simply been very busy. See, summer is the time I take the bulk of my vacations since theme/amusement parks are my life, and that's when most of them are open. However, those trips are mostly over for the summer now. Seeing as I'm completely broke, it's probably a good thing.
Now, onto why I'm here. I've decided to start a series of lists on how media has made me evolve as a person. I'm not the same person I was when I was 12, 22, or heck, even 25! Movies, books, music... they do help make you who you are. I mean family, friends, your background, etc also do, sure! But media does as well, and it is entwined with your background, family and friends. I will start with films. A list of the top 30 films that made me who I am up to now. They will not be in order so much as, say, #5 influenced me more than #6. However, #5 clearly influenced me a bit more than #23 did. See what I'm saying? It's on a scale, but take it in a general way.
The list was supposed to start on Sunday, but I've been re-ordering the list a little bit, and it takes time to write out why you feel the way you do about a film, and how it's effected your life. As such, I'm putting #30 off until later today. (It's 12:20 right now, so technically it will be done today.) I hope other people take up this project, as it's been really interesting to think about. I hope you'll join me on this journey through the important films in my life, and thus, through my life in itself.
