Alex J Cavanaugh is having another Blogfest! This time is is first loves: movie, music, book and love! Here are mine:
First Movie: The Neverending Story/Fievel Goes West
He's the luck dragon!! Creepy...kinda. hahaha
I seem to remember loving these at the same time and wanting to watch them constantly. I don't know what it was about Falcor or Fievel that I loved so much, but they captured my imagination.
First song/band - The Academy Is
I remember really loving this band. Particularly their album Sanit. It's probably the best ever. I love it. The lead singer's name is William Beckett (front and center) and I just thought not only does he have a pirate name, he's adorable (and later inspired a character I named Slate). I loved every single song on this album. EVERY ONE!
First book - Since I always say The Lord of the Rings, I'll tell you, BEFORE I read LotR, I read a book called Rebecca by Daphne Du Maurier in the eighth grade and lovvvvved it! I have sense had the intention of reading it again now that I am 22 to figure out what I loved so much about it. I don't really know now. haha.
First person - hehe.
That would be my Aladdin. :)
He hates pictures, so I have to sneak them. haha.
Okay, now go check out more First Loves!
Your Aladdin sounds really sweet - in contrast to 'Rebecca' which was spooky and chilling, especially the weird Mrs Danvers.
ReplyDeleteLOL. I didn't realize how odd that contrast really is! haha.
DeleteI loved Falcor!! He was awesome, even if a little creppy :)What's not to love about an Aladdin?
ReplyDeleteYeah, he's a little creepy, but that's okay! Aladdin is great! Especially mine!
DeleteHaha, I also have to sneak photos of my loved one ;-)
ReplyDeleteRebecca is one of those books that I've heard of and feel like I should have read, but haven't!
He hates pictures, so I must! LOL. They're always better in secret.
DeleteRebecca is a great book! :)
ReplyDeletelol. I'm going to reread it and figure out why I loved it. I was like...in the seventh grade when I read it!
DeleteFievel was so cute.
ReplyDeleteAgreed! The best mouse around!
DeleteAww, you two are soooo cute!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteAwwww! That picture of you and your Aladdin is so adorable! and he sounds great! :D
ReplyDeleteHe is! Lol. Thank you!! :)
Deletesomewhere out there.... fievel rules!
ReplyDeleteWe all love something...right!

lol. Agreed!
DeleteFievel Goes West! You know that song, "Dreams to dream..."? I sing it to my kids before they go to bed. LOVE IT!
ReplyDeleteAWWW!! That's so adorable!!
DeleteI just watched an American Tail a few weeks ago for the first time in years. I so remember why I loved it!
ReplyDeleteIt's a great movie!
DeleteFirst loves: what a fun idea! I don't know if I've ever seen The Neverending Story all the way through. It's one of those that I sorta missed even though everyone else in my gen loves it. The actor who played Atreyu was at Chicago's Comic Con last year (my first foray into conventions) and it was weird to see him as an adult - he's in his 40s!
ReplyDeleteThat is so weird!! lol. I thought he was younger that that, too.
DeleteI've never watched The Neverending Story. There's a dragon like that in it? Now I'm curious . . .
ReplyDeleteLOL. You must watch it! It's a classic!
DeleteMy wife would call him a keeper!
ReplyDeleteThanks for participating in my blogfest.
He is a keeper! lol. Thank you, Alex!
DeleteA guy who tucks you in is better than Prince Charming!
ReplyDeletelol. Agreed!!! :)
DeleteAwww the story of your Aladdin is so sweet. Love it! The never ending story is also one of my favorites!
ReplyDeleteAndrea
Thank you! =)
DeleteAwww.... your hunny! And Fievel = eep! Those movies are so good and the West one was great. I loved that song his sister sang :D
ReplyDeleteMe too! That was one of my favorite parts!
DeleteAwe, so sweet. I almost chose The Neverending Story. I recently shared it with my kids and they love it.
ReplyDeleteWhat's not to love about the Neverending story? haha. When you get older, Falcor is a little creepy, but that's okay.
DeleteHi fellow Neverending Story fan! :)
ReplyDeleteI've not read the book Rebecca, I may just go hunt it down now :)
Amelia
YAY Neverending Story!! I actually googled it, and it's based on a book that is NOTHING like the movie, so they renamed it. lol.
DeleteFievel Goes West ... what a great movie. Haven;t seen it in years though. Brings back great memories watching it with the kids.
ReplyDeleteI haven't either! I'm going to have to revisit my childhood and watch it!
DeleteCute pic of you with your Aladdin! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you! :)
DeleteAbsolutely love your smile there :) The pictures are awesome, nothing to worry about there! I love your story about your first Love - honestly enjoyed it!
ReplyDeleteI like your First Love entries, some I never heard of before...
Sharing the Love!

Delete"Sappy sort of sweet" makes for a really strong foundation. Really cute pics!
ReplyDeleteThank you! Yeah, he's a sweetie! =)
DeleteI recently read REBECCA for the first time, and I loved it! Such a great book.
ReplyDeleteI plan to reread it and figure out what I loved about it so much. LOL.
DeleteGreat picks. Not heard of that band though :)
