chicago international movies & music festival
i checked out cimm fest with a friend friday night. we watched bollywood dream. a story about 3 brazilian women moving to india to be actresses.
honestly, i really enjoyed it. they were speaking brazilian (it that what they speak in brazil?) and indian and i couldn't see the subtitles at all where i was sitting, but i still enjoyed it. i liked watching them work so hard to dance bollywood. it sort-of reminded me of trying to learn salsa. sort-of. no, i don't know what the drama in the movie was (couldn't read), but emotion is universal so i picked enough up from that to enjoy my experience.
this screening was located at the cultural center downtown. i loved the laid back atmosphere and it was full!
there was a high school dance happening upstairs so mike and i watched it a little (pretending we were looking at the dome) and then continued walking up to the top of the building. (there's not too much to see up there.) i said i'd be ok if i had some of those high schoolers dresses... some of them were super cute.

the best part, besides hanging out with my friend, it was free! =)
and you know as a super long work day came to an end friday i was hoping my friend would cancel on me so i could do nothing. i mentioned this to one of my co-workers who experienced the chaos that was friday and who's moving to new jersey in a couple months and she said something about wishing she took more advantage of what chicago has to offer. and then i knew i had to go. and i'm so happy i did!
