My mother and I watched The Perks of Being a Wallflower, and I had awkwardly yet almost boldly explained the reason why
Perks is rated R-13. Basically the book would be the same if they were
rated like movies were. I also rambled on about how people should not act
immature about the scenes in both the book and its movie adaptation, because seriously. Anyway
Perks was emotional and by “emotional” I mean exhaustingly enjoyable and captivating.
And as two older teenage girls giggled on about how cute Logan Lerman is and
why this and why that (since one of them apparently did not read Stephen Chbosky's work of brilliance), I clung to my mother’s arm and thought of many things, which I
admit did not exclude the attempt of figuring out what personality type Charlie
has and the probability of a high wave of the online statistics of Harry
Potter/Percy Jackson crossovers via a number of writing sites I admittedly
tarry around for fanfiction from other fandoms. I argue that some aspects from the
book weren’t so stressed about or did not even appear in the adaptation, but
overall I’d given Stephen a thumbs up and a friendly smile. I should also
mention how beautifully blessed Ezra Miller is with the audience’s obvious
infatuation with him summed up by their cheers, but I’m handing it over to you to
dream about until you see the movie (if you haven’t seen it yet).
But before Perks had caught my full attention I was at Fully
Booked, hissing around lest someone grab the SIGNED COPY of John Green’s
bestseller The Fault in Our Stars. My mother was of course hesitant about getting
it for me since I already own a NOT SIGNED COPY of the book, but she eventually
did. I wriggled around with my hands across my face, a tingle of the
Nerdfighter sign racing through my fingers. Then en route to a nearer mall
after a quick respite in the house, I replaced Owl City ’s
The Midsummer Station with Ocean Eyes. It was a bound to safety and relief, for
I had needed it.
One significant character from TFiOS is Augustus Waters, and I just had to add: I
also love metaphors and fear oblivion, Gus. I feel comfort through your
sentences through Hazel, so thank you.
Today a book and the cutest bookmark were purchased. Think Shakespeare
and a flower, getting ready for October. With a new month comes this kind of unpredictability I both dread and dream about. Let's do that together, hopefully with less worrying.
The following month, again, okay! Good evening, good night.
Lucky you. I have been looking all over for signed copy of the fault in our stars but to no avail. :(
