Sabrina Shao's 10th Blog Post
Not that anyone cares but so far this week, I have missed 3 chemistry classes, 1 quiz and I am like 5 lectures behind in bio. Just so you know, we have only had 2 days of classes because Monday and Tuesday were used for moving. Obviously, online classes really do not suit me.
I was looking over my list of homework and everything seems so disorganized. Everyday, I receive approximately 20-50 emails about what is due. I read over them but constantly forget to write down the information so now I am all messed up. Online classes are really messing with me. I no longer know when something is due or what I have to do with homework and it is making me really stressed out and my only coping mechanism for stress is watching Netflix which I do not have time for and yet, I find myself spending 18 hours in bed watching it. This is a constant cycle that I can’t seem to break out of.
I am starting to crumble. I need human interaction again. I need a schedule that I cannot break. I need to be back at Northeastern, back in my dorm and back in my classes. I also need to stop talking about the coronavirus and how it is affecting me because it is getting me really worked up and stopping me from starting my homework.
Instead of the coronavirus and all the bad things that it is bringing me, I’m gonna talk about Frozen 2. I guess this would be kind of like a review on the movie, except without the part where I have to follow a structured format. If you haven’t seen Frozen 2 yet, it is out on Disney plus and I highly recommend it. Over the past 2 days, I have watched it twice and I have played the soundtrack at least a dozen times. It is an excellent movie that stirs up many emotions. Unlike the first movie (which was also really good but kinda cheesy), it has a much more complex plot with more mature themes such as death.
My 40-year-old cousins, who watched it with their 8-year-old children, found the movie to be bad. They said that it didn’t really have a storyline but I personally believed that to be incorrect. There was a storyline that started off with the two sisters and then divided into each individual sister’s journey before coming back together in the end. This storyline had so many moving parts unlike the first movie where yes, it did kind of have that same basic idea, but it mostly focused on Anna’s journey. There was maybe 5 minutes spent on Elsa’s journey which is where she sang Let It Go. In the first movie, the directors had less to deal with but with this second movie, each sister had an equal amount of screen time to figure out the mystery.
I get why they didn’t like it though. It didn’t make their children as happy as the first movie did because their children, with their simple minds, could not wrap their little heads around the complexity of the story. I get it. I used to not like Monsters Inc. and The Incredibles when I was younger because I got so confused by the story and didn’t really understand what was going on. However, as adults who could easily comprehend the story, I thought they would have been more entertained, especially with the mystery aspect of the story. But it’s fine. I’m not offended that they didn’t like the movie. To each their own.
