I recently decided to get the monthly pass at the Alamo Drafthouse Cinema. It’s $20 for the month and you can see up to 2 movies at the theatre per day. It costs almost that much for a single ticket to a movie which is why I haven’t gone to the movies in forever.

It’s something that I felt like I can also do solo. In my younger years, I’m not sure if I would have the confidence to go to a movie alone. But these days, I have finally started to stop being so egocentric because no one else is even paying attention to the single girl in the theatre. I went to the new Hunger Games movie and it turns out that I’m not the only one who enjoys going to the movies alone.

To make sure I am taking advantage of my monthly pass, I have at least one movie ticket for each week of December. All different genres too. We shall see if I get so comfortable at the theatre that I start bringing a blanket with me. I can kick up my feet and enjoy the cinema, something I didn’t get to do much as a kid. Maybe if this round of IVF works, it can be a new hobby that I can share with my child. Wishful thinking. For now, it is off to the movies I will go.
