A Favorite Pastime

Movie: My Favorite Pastime. It was an entry I wrote last September.


I love going to the cinema but last year, I went to movie cinemas only four times.


This March, I watched four movies on four Tuesdays.


Three in French, one in English. The names of the movies are in the cover photo.


There were two movies for which I was the ONLY viewer in the entire room.


Totally incredible fun experience.


Tom and Jerry was the one I saw during the March break. There were some audiences but very strict distances as well. It was the first movie I saw this year.


After that, I decided to go to French movies to practice my listening skills as there were no subtitles.


Three movies later, I would say that I did improve my listening skills and I would like to go for more when my time allows me.


I have accumulated points that can be redeemed for movies but it asks for regular points, not half, on Tuesdays.


One only pays half of the admission prices on Tuesdays.


I started using a $100.00 gift card my hubby got for me with his credit card points.


Five movies later, I still have 60% left on the gift card. If I keep going on Tuesdays, there are at least seven more movies.


I am not sure about the upcoming Tuesday though. I have an important Zoom meeting in the afternoon and my Toastmasters meeting in the evening.


I am going to deliver my monthly speech at my Toastmasters meeting and I have invited a few people already.


Time to conclude my blog and start preparing for my speech...
