Holiday Barbie

Every year I get an ornament from my aunt every Christmas, and they're really important to me because she's from my dad's side and I don't see her very often and it makes me feel really special to know that they remember me, as stupid as that sounds. This is one of my favorites.

Penny Doll

This doll is from Marshall Fields, it even still has the tag! I love it and it's super personal because it's been in my family for a few generations. My grandma loves it.

I added this because it was part of my food item's i consumed just now. I made these brownies and they are so good that i was proud of myself for making something without burning my house on fire. this was an accomplishment for me to make a delicious dessert for my family

Object 4

This is a new addition to my collection, he is really similar to my other stuffed monkey but he is superior for the mere fact that his hands have velcro. I love this monkey, I won it somewhere and it's pretty cool.
When i take a look at these jars, i think about my mom and grandmother. The nescafe coffee reminds me much of my grandma making this type of coffee every morning before i head to school or work. I see the Ragu and i recall my mother making pasta and having ragu as her sauce and she would make it so delicious that these jars reminded me of thier home cooking.

To summarize: it's that scene from Land Before Time where Littlefoot's mom died. Oh wait, spoiler alert (not really, it happens really early in the movie if you childhood deprived people didn't see this film). This scene is the Bambi's mom scene of my childhood. Bambi didn't really do much for me as a kid (now it horrifies me). I knew she was dead, but the significance of the scene didn't really hit me (it probably doesn't help that the next scene is of happy birds singing and kissing). Of course, Land Before Time pretty much takes the death and stretches it all through out the film. We see how the mom died, what she said before she died, Littlefoot confusing his shadow for his mom, star leaves, more, and more, and more PAIN.

Going back to color, it's all dark colors (some of the darkness might be from the video quality), and everything, including the characters, are tinted this dark blue or purple-blue color. The only source of light is from lightning, which is an archetype to sadness, evilness, scaryness, and revelation. It's a scene that uses everything to describe just how sad and depressing this scene is, and it works so well (at least, to me). The darkness is a pivotal point in his life, as the next scenes are bright with colors, and I believe there really isn't that much obscurity until the very end. I think it's an interesting use of colors and lighting in an entire film. Though, I'm going to have to watch it again to make sure (and then cry ;_;).
