It's the classic go-to movie when having a wine night with your ladies.
The sweet aroma of a freshly popped bowl of popcorn and cozy blankets to compliment the movie theater ambiance. Sassy, fierce, and witty, of course, 13 Going On 30 is our choice. Idolizing this very obvious chick flick, we see a glimpse of what it's like to be a thirteen-year-old living in a thirty-year-old's life. Yet, it's not this cookie cutter lifestyle our dreams convinced us it would be, this movie shows us exactly that. In life sometimes we are led astray, we lose sight of who we are and turn into someone we don't recognize. 13 Going On 30 told us from the very beginning to stay true to ourselves and always embrace our inner Jenna Rink.
So, here are all the times 13 Going On 30 taught each lady a valuable lesson to hold on tight throughout girlhood:
1. Never give up on your celebrity crush.
Hey, never give up hope. One day, and it will come, when you can sail the seas with Johnny Depp.
2. Always believe in magic and make your wish count.
There is only a select number of times the universes blesses you with a wish -- birthdays and shooting stars.Life is magical, always believe.
3. Sleepovers are meant for:
Mostly hair braiding, pigging out on every gas station junk food possible, and singing about those boys who will break our hearts.
4. Be fierce and stand up to any bully.
In life, whether it is when we are thirteen or thirty, we will encounter difficult people that just make us a little feisty. Knowing how to express confidence can show people what you stand for.
5. Work hard Miss Independent!!!
Hold onto that dream of being an aspiring journalist pondering article ideas off your balcony in Brooklyn, New York.
6. When the boys think they're smooth . . .
Woah, woah slow your roll.
7. You're never too old to test your swing jumping skills.
Am I the only one that has fallen flat on their face?
8. Always show off your quirky dance skills in public!
"Who's got the moves on the ice and off the ice ice baby" Whether you're singing in the showing or yelling your heart out in the car, don't be afraid to dance and enjoy yourself no matter the audience.
9. Be the leader people ask to make decisions.
Who says women can't do it all? Believe in yourself and your ability to conquer.
10. Praise the day your 21st birthday rolls around!
"If you like Piña Coladas and getting caught in the rain."
11. This is the only way to greet your friends!
Hey, you're my best friend and you are always there for me -- it's not a question you're getting a hug.
12. Do what's best for your friends.
Even if it's hard, you always have to do what is best for your friends. Sometimes it's something they don't want to hear or sometimes it's saying goodbye. Always stay true.
13. Be sassy and always stay true to yourself!
ABOVE ALL ELSE, BE SASSY, BE PASSIONATE IN ANY VENTURE, AND TREAT OTHERS WITH THE KINDNESS AND RESPECT YOU HOPE TO RECEIVE IN RETURN.
