The Help

After my movie marathon this weekend with my brother and sister this was the movie I liked the most!! I think it's an oscar contender or something and it really deserves it. It's serious and funny at the same time. And I can't help but think if that's exactly what always happens in my country, because I can't help but see what sometimes some people do to their maids, even in my own family!, I've clearly seen maids with hate in their eyes after someone treated them like shit, and they are always accusing them of being thieves. (I've also seen people not letting them using anything inside the house, like the bathroom, or regulating how much they talk on the telephone). And let's face it, sometimes they are the ones who raise their children, one time I even saw the son of a well know politician treating his maid in a very innapropiate way and she couldn't do something against him! The same thing goes for chaffeurs and bodyguards because I've seen some of my friends spending all their free times with them, going togheter to the movies, eating out and telling them of all their problems. But it's also nice when you see someone getting along with them and even treating them like family.



Well... enough about this. Something really funny happened today, I was watching the first season of Gossip Girl and my mother stoped by to see what I was watching and before I knew she was watching all the chapters with me, you could her asking me things like: "So Blair was going out with Nate but then cheated him with Chuck right? And Lily van der Woodsen was going out with Dan's father before he married Allison? and now they are going out togheter again?" and things like that, the only difference is that she was refering to them like the blond girl (Serena), the evil one (Blair), the stepbrother of the blond girl (Chuck), the ex of the evil girl that is best friend of the blond one (Nate), and I guess you can imagine how it goes, haha. And just like that I had finished watching the first season. Tomorrow I'll probably watch the second season, probably with my mom... haha.



This is the song that I have in my head right now, I just love how she sings!
