Am I a daughter of Delta Nu? No.
Soon to be a fiancée?? Definitely not.
Has a man chosen me? Nope.
Can my life begin today? Absolutely! (If I put my mind to it)
Make a happy home? I can sure try!
Not waste hard earned wage? Well, my 0 hours contract job don't put me in very often and I'm literally only on for 2&½ hours next week so :/ I don't like spending big amounts of money, that shit is scary. My dad's bank account is safe :)
Strive not to look my age? I already look like a 12 year old with my hair tied up, I think I'm fine.

Legally Blonde (2001)
👱‍♀️👙💼
Based on the fictional novel by Amanda Brown, this comedy film stars Reese Witherspoon as sorority girl Elle Woods who decides to enroll at Harvard Law School to try to win back the guy who broke up with her.
The supporting cast includes: Luke Wilson as junior attorney Emmett Richmond, Selma Blair as overachieving law student Vivian Kensington, Matthew Davis as Elle’s boyfriend Warner Huntington III, Jennifer Coolidge as manicurist Paulette Bonafonté, Victor Garber as the arrogant Professor Callahan and Holland Taylor as the stern yet inspiring Professor Stromwell. What’s more, the canine star of the film is a chihuahua named Moonie who plays Elle’s pet dog Bruiser.
Reese Witherspoon radiates just the right amount of witty pep and nuanced energy to take on the role of a sunny but determined blonde who goes from majoring in fashion merchandising to studying practice of law. Luke Wilson plays a mild-mannered character who doesn’t judge Elle for her perceived superficiality. Selma Blair as Vivian is portrayed as both a total snob and (later) a supportive colleague. Jennifer Coolidge is priceless in her portrayal of a self-conscious yet brassy woman who becomes a trustworthy confidante. Bruiser (the dog) is quite the precious attention-stealer as Elle treats him like a human being and carries him around wherever she goes.
The movie (along with the original novel) is an introduction of overturning discrimination against blonde stereotypes. Elle Woods is first seen expecting a marriage proposal from her long-term boyfriend Warner, only to be dumped since he saw her blonde identity as a burden to his future aspirations and (more importantly) his familial expectations of being a senator. Elle then puts her mind to work on her pursuit in becoming serious enough to not just prove her former beau wrong, but also to fight for the dignity of other blondes. However, she realizes that fitting in at Harvard is a lot harder than she thought it would be.
The story even contrasts Elle’s frivolous Southern California lifestyle with the intellectual tradition of her East Coast peers. For instance, Elle is fooled into wearing a Playboy Bunny outfit for a “costume party” in Cambridge. Not only that, but she finds Warner engaged to the preppy Vivian Kensington as his preference of an intelligent woman, igniting the old blonde vs. brunette rivalry (otherwise known as the beauty vs. brains dichotomy).
Throughout the course of the film, Elle sets out to change societal beliefs about blondes being too shallow to be smart or have a care in the world. Along the way, she defends fellow blonde/sorority sister/role model Brooke Taylor-Windham being accused of murder. What’s more, the hostility between Elle and Vivian gradually ceases as they come to see past their external differences.
The soundtrack contains a list of both original songs and cover versions of classic hits. The track list includes: “We Could Still Belong Together” by Lisa Loeb, “Watch Me Shine” by Joanna Pacitti, “Sex Machine” (a cover version of the James Brown song) by Mya and “One Girl Revolution” by Superchick to name a few. But one specific original song that plays as the theme of the film is “Perfect Day” by Hoku. Moreover, Elle helps Paulette to get the attention of her crush (a UPS delivery man) by teaching her a particular move called the “Bend and Snap”, during which the whole salon joins in.
Lastly, the memo of the whole storyline is you don’t need to change your identity, but to commit yourself to the fullest to achieve great potential. In Elle Woods’ case, she is able to rely on her looks, optimism and deep intelligence to succeed. That said, I justifiably recommend this solid girl-power movie to every fan of Reese Witherspoon.
If anyone were to ask how I came up with this, here’s my response: “What, like it’s hard?”

❝ honey, this is a tragedy, and every tragedy needs a greek chorus. ❞
she sighs deeply, looking at paulette with a clear weight on her shoulders.   ❝    i never thought it would turn out like this, you know? warner and i were supposed to be forever- not just until the end of our senior spring.   ❞    she could get down with a musical number though. maybe it's just what she needs for some cheering up- that and a new outfit. plus the haircut she came to the salon for...
