I am really feeling low about my life. I've been trying to push off the unhappy thoughts creeping into my head. I love to live life, I love to see the sunnyside of things. I just feel like everything is going to go well or fall apart and I'm leaning toward the latter. Plus, I suppose I am down because I watched Spanglish today...totally depressed me! If you don't want to know what happens in this movie because for some reason you want to see, just skip my journal...but this is what happens. Rich family consisting of two great kids,
JOHN--a good guy husband/dad and restraunt owner/chef
Deborah--an unstable mom who lost her fashion industry job and is just a stupid person
GRANDMA-- a sweet and wise alcholic grandmother and mother to psycho mom
Fleur-- a spanish speaking house cleaner whose world is her daughter
Christina--a bilingual daughter that does not appreciate her mother until she grows up
Ok, so Deb cheats on her wonderful husband! Deb makes her daughter think she is fat and buys her clothes a size to small...so mean!!!!!!!!!!!! She also takes over Christina's life buying her stuff, getting her enrolled in private school, letting her spend the night without consulting Fleur. ERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!! Wonderful husband really likes Fleur but looks away, etc. because he is a good guy!!!!!!!!! He puts up with his crazy wife whom he has loved since HIGH SCHOOL because he LOVES her and she just goes off and cheats on him, destroys him! Well, Fleur falls in love with John, but her daughter is her world. So Fleur quits and pulls Christina out of private school. So basically everyone's life sucks, except for Christina's because her mom worked hard to give her all she could and Christina grew up to be accepted into Princeton anyway.
