My Favourite Things

Recently saw the preview of "Sound of Music" movie which was due to be shown on tv. Made me realise that I have actually (don't laugh at me) not watch the movie at all!! Saw little parts of the movie from time to time. But I can't recall why I did not manage to watch this classic.

Last night, one of the songs in the movie Do-Re-Mi was sung to me :)

And just a while ago, whilst I was in the public area of my office, I heard the piano instrumental version of the song My Favourite Things. Thought that all these were pretty coincidental. Where I am seated, I cannot hear the public annoucement clearly. But as I happen to step out into the public area, soothing music was played and there it was - My Favourite Things from the "Sound of Music".

Of all the songs, My Favourite Things and Sixteen Going On Seventeen are one of my favourites. Looking at the list of the 'favourite things', those in bold are what I like :)

Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens

Bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens

Brown paper packages tied up with strings

These are a few of my favorite things

Cream colored ponies and crisp apple strudels

Doorbells and sleigh bells and schnitzel with noodles

Wild geese that fly with the moon on their wings

These are a few of my favorite things

Girls in white dresses with blue satin sashes

Snowflakes that stay on my nose and eyelashes

Silver white winters that melt into springs

These are a few of my favorite things

When the dog bites

When the bee stings

When I'm feeling sad

I simply remember my favorite things

And then I don't feel so bad

Where is the nearest vcd shop for me to rent the movie??
