Renewal Of Vows

Finally, our parents’ big day has come. Everybody is excited. Who wouldn’t be? We will all be a part of not just any other wedding anniversary. We will be witnessing the renewal of vows of two important people who had been a part of our insignificant lives. We will be witnessing the renewal of vows of two important people who are in love for the longest time around. Such devotion to one another is kind of rare. Some even considered such relationship a legend.

I am glad and please that I am my parents’ child. A lot of people consider me as lucky since I am one of those few kids whose parents still stay together no matter what adversity they encounter. I see them fight all the time just like any normal couple. But they always patch up afterwards. So I never lived in fear that one day they will finally end their relationship. As their child, there is nothing more fulfilling than preparing for their wedding anniversary.

Seeing their happy faces is worth all the wait and preparations. They thought that it was just a simple wedding anniversary. It was a big surprise for them that we were able to gather all their friends to celebrate with us especially that today is also Valentine’s Day. My mom was in awe especially when we turn on all the exterior lights, step lights and flood lights in the yard. The outdoor flood lights provide just enough illumination for the whole yard showing the beautifully done landscape and garden. They did not expect to be renewing their vows as well. They thought that our uncle who is also a priest is only joining the wedding celebration. They acted upset that we did not tell them sooner but we all know that they are thrilled.

Movie Watching Is Fun

Watching movies is an all time family entertainment which everybody enjoys. Most families I know either owns a DVD player, smart TV or a home theater system for the whole family’s enjoyment. Some would even subscribe to a satellite or cable provider which carries their favorite movie channel so they could watch movies any time. At home, since we are not subscribed to any cable or satellite providers, we only rent or buy DVD’s of our favorite movies so we could watch them during weekends. Oftentimes we would do a movie marathon during those days especially when work becomes so stressful. There are also times that we would hit the movie houses together with our friends after work. 

I always have a great time whenever we watch movies in the theater. It feels like you are a part of that movie. So whenever we can, we watch movies in the theater at least once or twice a month. However, the only thing which I do not like whenever we watch movies in the theater is that my eyes do not easily adjust to its dark surrounding. I am only thankful that there are step lights which guide moviegoers like us to their seats. Oftentimes, we would sit near the properly illuminated Exit sign so we easily get out of the theater if in case something bad happen such as fire. We also make it a habit to check the different signage or which are oftentimes mounted on Direct Sign Mounts or Sign Direct Mounts in every building structure we go for our own safety. Moreover, checking the signage first helps you find your way around easily which is necessary in dark places such as the theater.

But no matter how much I enjoy watching the movies in the theater, I still prefer watching them at the comfort of our home. It is not only relaxing but it is also less expensive.
