“Who is your friend who likes to play, Bing Bong.” Live BETTER’s adventure continued with a movie: Inside Out. This movie really sparked discussion about societal’s positive expectations as well as how emotions affect us. The movie watching began with everyone relaxing and eating their lunch to wanting to throw the character Sadness into the Memory Dump. After the character Bing Bong disappeared, most students were getting really teary. One student talked about how now she will have to cry because Bing Bong was lost forever. What started off as a simple Disney movie turned into a rollercoaster of emotions for all of us.

 

Inside Out wanted to share the development of complex emotions and how it is okay to feel multiple emotions as once. Well, that was certainly true during our movie watching experience since we went from crying to laughing in a matter of minutes!
