Grease!

I was around twelve years old when the film version of "Grease" hit the big screen. It was such a huge hit with my peers. I even went on a "group date" to catch it at the local theater. My girlfriends and I would spend evenings singing along with the characters. Who can forget such classics as "Summer Nights", "We Go Together" or "You're the One That I Want." I can't speak for the male gender, but as a female, the story of a boy from the wrong side of the tracks who falls for a prim and proper girl grabs me every time. Boy wins girls, boy loses girl, then boy changes and girl changes in order to win each other over. I'm such a sucker for happy endings.
It doesn't matter if you're a high school student in 2007 or 1957, peer pressure is peer pressure. Danny had a chance to shed his "greaser" image for a summer when he met Sandy, a very proper young lady. But once one is back in the environs of school, you cannot easily break out of the group mentality. Danny reverted to his smoking, trouble making ways as a member of the Thunderbird gang. Much to Sandy's shock and dismay, Danny was not the boy she remembered from the summer. What happened? Was it all a lie?
Along the way, Sandy learns to broaden her horizons, i.e. let loose a little, and Danny tries to tame his wild behavior. By the end of the movie, each demonstrates to the other that they're willing to make changes for the sake of love. While I believe outward changes to your appearance are fine, you still should be true to who you are. I suggest revisiting this movie classic. "Grease" is the definitely the WORD!
