beyondtheblonde: (are you psyched or what?!)
Elle Woods loves her life. With the stress of finals rolling off her back, she's officially halfway through law school. She has a wonderful boyfriend, the sweetest dog anyone could ever ask for, the greatest friends, a fun job that helps her make enough to stay afloat. Sure, she has to grapple with student loans for the first time ever, but everything seems to be working out anyway.

And today she has a bright, clear, winter day, frigid but sunny, and she's dragged Emmett out to the slopes, so it's basically perfect. Okay, so she's not sure where Kagura came from because some of her friends swear it's always been there but she's heard other people say otherwise, but she's never been out this way before herself. Whether it's a landmark or a mystery, it's still got a pretty nice beginner's slope, and it's time Emmett learned how to ski.

"I'm the one from Malibu," she points out as they approach the slope. "Shouldn't you be the one teaching me?"

Elle Woods

I've been smiling and sweet
and thoroughly beaten,
blowing my chance.
Let's not chase him away.
Let's face him and say,
"Hey, punk, let's dance!"

This chip on my shoulder
makes me smarter and bolder.
No more whining or blaming —
I am reclaiming my pride!
Grab my book and let's do this
instead of doodling hearts
all through this.
There's a chip on my shoulder —
let's see him knock it aside.
