How Often Do You Color?

I love Sex and the City!
LOVE IT!
LOVE IT!
And this weekend, just like every other girl in this country, I went to the movies with my best friend and her mother and her best friend to take part in the biggest female bonding movie ever made!
Before stepping into the theater I realized how much people like to relate to the characters. I remember when I was seven and watching Power Rangers how we would all pick a character that represented us. I was the yellow ranger.
Then when the Spice Girls were the it band we all picked out which one we would be again, I got to be Mel B, Scary Spice, because I have big hair... no fair because I wanted to be Emma, Baby Spice,(she wore cuter cloths but I was to old to be the baby

So while I am in line to see Sex and the City, for some reason, I was drawn back to my days as a seven-year-old. We actually each picked what characters we wanted to be! My best friend got Carrie, because she likes to write (well i do to but i think Carrie should go to someone with an amazing shoe and dress collection, along with having an ability to write. So she earned that title), her mom got Sam, because of her fun personality and independent spirit, the other women we were with got Miranda. No idea why because I don't know her but whatever.
Then there was me... I guess I am more of the Charlotte.

Which I guess is fitting. I am a little of a prude. I know, did I just admit that... I am breaking some taboo law, but I will not kiss a guy unless I have feelings for them, I will admit that I am a little naive at times and as much as I will deny this til I am at my bitter end, I would love to live that fairy tale life that she had made for herself. (only I would work).

If there is one thing that Sex and the City does is bring out selves to our own attention. Yes, I am a little like each character, but I am happy with Charlotte!

I just find it funny what powers this movie has. It has made women of all ages bond over content, brought us all out to the movies for a national girls night out and brought us all to a time in our childhood where you'd calm a character.
