Now an adult, I listen to the television just as I do the radio. This habit also was a result of listening to movies on the radio that kept my attention and allowed me to explore my imagination since there were no visuals. Over the years I chose carefully the movies I watched. I kept a safe distance from horror movies and disliked any action movie that had too much violence; therefore I stuck to adventure, comedy and documentaries.At times when I sat and watched an entire movie that surrounded a natural disaster I would watch keenly and was often heard grumbling “ This must be a sneek peek into the future as I bet you any money this will end up happening one day, just watch”. These movies made me think " What if this was suppose to happen, what would I do?. How would i survive?

When I heard of the blizzard heading to New York I immediately thought of the movie “The Day After Tomorrow”. The Day After Tomorrow was directed by Roland Emmerich. It had my heart rate up and as scared as i was i was excited to see what will happen next, therefore throughout the movies it kept my interest.The suspense was well executed and the special effects were too real not to find the movie believable at some points which made me worry as it felt as if this could really happen in real life.

What a movie huh? I do hope and pray that nothing that happened in the movie will take place in reality and that everyone will be safe during its passing. I pray those who will be affected will be adequately prepared to keep warm.

Lucky I am to be out of arms way of this blizzard. The sun is shining out side and everyday is a beach day in Jamaica.
