Melinda Arnett [email protected]

Despite the wonderful talent of Kate Hudson, Joan Cusack, and a handful of great child actors. Raising Helen just doesn't come together with any kind of bang. This movie is 119 minutes of a few small laughs and more than a few yawns of boredom.

Sinking Story

As with most movies nowadays, this story has been tol$ before. A young, beautiful career woman, Helen Harris (Kate Hudson), suddenly becomes the guardian to her older sister's 3 children. In this particular version of the young- woman-becomes-a-mother story, Helen Harris has another older sister, Jenny (Joan Cusack) who plays the quintessen- tial mom complete with pregnancy and the most hideous floral color schemes in her house. Jenny would of course be the Kate Hudson, is funny, charming, and better choice as the guardian for the dead beautiful, but she would be much better sister's children, but nevertheless, Helen suited for a romantic comedy without the is chosen and becomes the new mother. baggage of 3 children. She's much more compelling as the young career woman in this movie then she is as the brand new mom. She has a few funny REVIEW * moments, but the movie really needed a lot more of such moments to really make it happen.

Dear Mamma Souffle.

I'm a freshman here al Wright State University and I'm very happy to be finishing my first year. I had a successful year, but I've had a hard time staying focused this quarter. The problem that I'm writing to you about is that I'm seriously considering not returning to college next year. I would really like to take a year off from school. I feel like I need to find myself. I need to discover what it is I really want to do. I haven't declared a major here at Wright State because I have no idea what I really want to study. 1 don't want to waste any money on an education that I might not use. My only real problem is that my parents will be really upset when I tell them my decision. So my first question is how do I tell my parents about it? And my sec- ond question is how should I spend this year off.' I want to do some- thing more than work, but I 'm not sure what kind of options I have.

Sincerely, Finding Myself

Dear Finding Myself,

Let me just say that I fully respect your decision to take a year off school. I think more students should make just the same decision. After all, it's very easy to take a year off and return later. And I agree, you shouldn't take out student loans if you have no idea what you're going to do with your degree. In fact. I don't believe nearly as many people should pursue higher education as arc right now. That being said, you might be in for a very tough fight with your parents on this issue. You of course can always use the direct approach, but I would only use this approach if your parents are ex- hippies. If you're not sure about what your parents were doing during the 60's, find out. If they were involved in the anti-war movement than I would definitely go for the direct approach. All you need to remember is to remind them of what it was like when they were your age. Get them reminiscing about their college days and then tell them that you want to make the same kind of memories and taking a year oft'of school is the only way to do it. If, however, your parents are not ex-hippies, than I would stay away from the direct approach. You can always just not fill out the paper work to go back to school next year and not tell them about it until it's too late. Be careful, because this approach is sure to make your parents really angry when they find out. You're final option, and probably the most creative one, is to make up a university that you can enroll in to make your parents happy. You can easily create a brochure about the university (give it a really great name like American University or something like that) and show it to your parents. Tell them that it's located out of state and be sure to make it comparable in price to Wright State. This way, instead of having to spend your own money, you can live off of the tuition your parents will pay for you 10 attend this non-existent uni- versity. This way. you can have the freedom to truly explore what it is you want to do and find out who you want lo be. Once you've secured the situation with your parents, there's no limit to what you can do to find yourself. A road trip across the coun- try is always a good idea. Or you could tour Huropc. .lust be creative and have a good time. And remember as my ole* Grand Pappy Souf- fle used to say. "Sometimes you've got to lie to find out the truth."
