......... 

how about me as Yu Shu-lien in crouching tiger, hidden dragon?! action packed movie, beautiful scenery, great love story. i'm in! i loved michelle yeoh's spirited portrayal of this heroine and just think of all those fun flying-thru-the air scenes!

.......... 
 

julie andrews as maria von trapp 

..........

next... me as maria von trapp in the movie: the sound of music

i've dreamed of being this character since i was a wee little singer-around-the-house-er.

i mean ... twirling in the alps.

singing around austria.

making a whole family of outfits out of curtains?!

kissing young christopher plummer.

that's a role i'd REALLY like! :)

 jennifer ehle as elizabeth bennet

..................

my final dream character to be: 

elizabeth bennet in pride & prejudice.

she's delightful & admirable.

and just to seal the deal ... three words ... 

courting mr. darcy.

slumber party {part 4}: who should play YOU in the movie-version of your life?

....................................

don't you just love a slumber party? comfy pjs, silly movies, telling your friends, old & new, your thoughts & crushes & dreams.... such fun! you can catchup with some of our other slumber party fun here: and for today's party question: who would you choose to play you in the movie version of your life?

....................................


well well well.
if there was going to be a movie-version of my life (imagine!)
i would certainly hope it would be
fun & dancey & kid-friendly!

so for today's question, i'm going to go with casting the young julie andrews
(aka the spirited maria von trapp in the 1965 technicolor movie the Sound of Music
& the crafty mary poppins in the delightful 1964 film Mary Poppins. )


i'm choosing young julie andrews for a couple of reasons.

1. as mary poppins & maria von trapp she seems fun & friendly & spiritied & and, let's be honest, a little feisty in a kid-friendly sorta way!

2. this way the movie version of my life would assuredly be a musical in the
style of the glorious 1960's!
(so that pivotal parts of the rikrak life would be sung and danced too! perfect!)

and
3. this way, i could cast YOUNG christopher plummer (aka captain von trapp!) or young dick van dyke (aka Bert the chimney sweep) as my swoon-worthy love interest, mr. rikrak! sigh!
(i do love those two actors in their 1960's prime!)

dick van dyke in mary poppins


christopher plummer in sound of music

although young julie andrews & i look nothing alike,
i think she would aptly pull it off!
(and she did craft outfits out of curtains in the sound of music! what great repurposing!)

....................................

okay! so i've confessed!

so there's my choice for who i'd choose to play me in the movie-version of my life!
now... let's snuggle into our cozy sleeping bags, open another bag of sour cream & onion chips,
turn on some cyndi lauper, giggle & whisper and hear yours!

who should play YOU?
