My Girl: The True Friendship

Have you ever heard about My Girl or My Girl 2 ? They are my long lasting movies. My Girl talks about family and friendship that never ending. A story of friendship that would stay in our hearts forever. It's all about 11-year-old Vada (Anna Chlumsky), when she has her first kiss, her first crush and even her first period. Thomas J. (Macaulay Culkin )was the boy who was kissed by her for the first time. Vada even taught him how to kiss. This funny moment happened near the lake which absolutely romantic. Thomas J. was Vada's only friend, because Vada was a tomboy therefore she didn't have any girl friend. They always went out together until the day when Thomas J. went to forest to look for Vada's oval black ring that was lost before. Unfortunately, Thomas J. was stung by bees. He then died and Anna was lost him, the best friend ever. Thomas J.'s Mom gave Vada's the ring as an order from Thomas J. before he died. Finally, the mood ring was changing the colour into blue. Just as blue as Vada's feeling. My Girl is really inspiring me almost in my whole life. I remember I watched them several times with the old fashion laser disc when I was in year 6. I was waiting for the VCD to come out in Indonesia but that never happen. Today, incidentally I went to K-Mart which just near by from my house and I surprisingly found the DVD of both My Girl and My Girl 2. Rushly, I bought it. I can't wait to see it again just after eight years. I realise the time was just goes by quickly. From now on, I don't want to miss the true friendship that the value of it I seldom known until the day I lost one.


Vada Sultenfuss' poem for Thomas James Sennett:
Weeping willow with your tears running down
Why do you always weep and frown?
Is it because he left you one day?
Is it because he could not stay?
On your branches he would swing
Do you long for the happiness?
That day would bring
He found shelter in your shade
You thought his laughter would never fade
Weeping willow stop your tears
For there is something to calm your fears
You think death has ripped you forever apart
But I know he'll always be in your heart
