For the past 21 years I have lived in a house with my family.

Briefly, my humble house locates in a small and quite street, so coming home to me is like all the craziness happened outside is left behind. Just beside my house stands a big old tree. I have my own room with walls painted violet, which is kinda a peaceful color. Since I spend most of my time staying at home, my room means the whole world to me.

Since my taste always changes, my favorite color at the moment is black. Although I have just bought some black items recently, black surprisingly suits me.

Why do some people love watching black and white movies?
The past few years have seen an unprecedented resurgence in black-and-white movies from horror to science fiction, drama to romance because a great number of people simply like black and white colors and don’t want to overload themselves with other colorful things when watching the films.
