A few things of pertinence:
1. I read this book.
It was not a good book. I don't mind if some people think it is; I personally did not like it. Yet I did something with Looking for Alaska that I rarely do with other books - I finished it. At the end, I felt like I had finished some great race, or closed a chapter of my life. *metaphors, yay* And although it wasn't my favorite read, there was something about finishing it that made me feel melancholy. So props to you, John Green, you little stinker.

2. Over the weekend, I may or may not have become semi-smitten with Harry Styles. I want to say no, because, ew, Harry Styles looks like a spider monkey or something, but then I saw this photo of him in a Rolling Stones T shirt, and I don't even like the Rolling Stones, but for some reason that made him ten times more appealing. Egad. But I seriously don't like Harry Styles. At least I don't think I do. I'm sorry, Andrew Garfield!!
Once I found myself staring at a photo of Justin Bieber and thinking to myself he aint that bad...
ReplyDeleteDidn't take me long before I snapped out of my trance. Weird.
