"He looked at the sky and told me to look at the stars. So, I looked up, and we were in this giant dome like glass snowball, and he said that the amazing white stars were only really holes in the black glass of the dome, and when you went to heaven, the glass broke away, and there was nothing but a whole sheet of star white, which was brighter than anything but doesn't hurt your eyes. It was vast and open and thinly quiet, and I felt so small." -January 1 1992. The Perks of Being A Wallflower
Almost three weeks away. My lovers are you excited? I promised my future self that I would work hard but as usual procrastination is getting the best out of me.
I sit here in front of Rodrigo typing about the best third person novel I have read in such a long time. The Perks of Being A Wallflower was recommended to me by T-dog she told me that I reminded her of the protagonist and that I would love it. And YES I do love it and somehow the Protagonist did remind me of him. This story gave me insight of what was my place in life. I was a wallflower. I used to watch what others were doing. What was happening in their lives listening to their stories and not making up my own. I loved that. I grew older and sure why not lets get rebellious lets start a riot. I finally had my own stories. Life got more exciting and just a bit more angsty. This is my life and that is pretty much what happened in the book minus the drugs and less drama but same indie music. I haven't finished it yet. But I will recommend it to you. Finish what ever your studying and buy or borrow it.
"Do you always think this much, Charlie?" "Is that bad?" "Not necessarily. It's just that sometimes people use thought to not participate in life." "Is that bad?" "Yes."
