When I first saw this movie, it was the night before I drove up to South Carolina to pick up my best friend for Christmas Break. And right now, this is my favorite clip of the movie, and something that I know we all have done.
Singing along to a song that is so annoying, but we just HAVE to sing along because, well, its there.
Which brings me to point No. 2.
Best friends can act like complete and total MORONS in front of each other. Take me and my best friend, Alyssa. We are inseparable, after almost 10 years of friendship. We fight more than often, but we get over it. The reason if probably due to the fact that we both have very dominating personalities.
Actually, if you think about it, we could only become friends during childhood, because at any other time in our lives, we would have seemed positively alien to each other. Too different to become friends.
Luckily, we became friends when we were 7 years old, at Imagination Station. We met in the sandbox (then again, EVERYTHING there is covered in sand), and when I took her shovel, she bit me. Since then, its always been "Alyssa and Zaelyn: Covering the entire alphabet with one friendship".
But this movie is basically us in a nutshell. The two main characters, Olive (Emma Stone) and Rhiannon (Alyson Michalka) play best friends that have know each other for years. Rhi is the b!tch that no one really likes, and Olive is the one who has to clean up all of Rhi's messes. The nice one. Needless to say, I am Rhi and Alyssa is Olive. You really have to see the movie to understand.
