hoping for the best but expecting the worst

Pessimism

It's friday.

I've spent money, I've laughed, I've been hungry, I've been grumpy.

And it's okay. 

I'm tired of hearing teenagers complaining.

I'm tired of worrying. 

What do I really have to worry about? 

It is more important than hunger? 

war? 

diseases? 

no. 

Not at all. 

But should I therefore be grateful of how small my "worry" is? 

is it selfish of me to say that I feel my worries are more important, just because I think so?

right now in my situation, I wouldn't feel more fortunate, because someone has it worse.

And that's pessismism.

Admit it, "What about the hungry people in Africa?", it hits your conscience a bit.

It tells you to be grateful for what that is in your possession

with guilt.

Is there a better way to submit gratefulness?

Every time I listen to this song, it reminds me of Neverland.

The author behind the genius play, Peter Pan. I'm currently reading this book, and I think it's absolutely lovely. The book brings up such a nostalgic feeling. I've only seen the Disney version, and now, after being halfway through the original tale, and I've seen Finding Neverland, I'm stuck with a small hatred to Disney. It has been years since I've seen Peter Pan. I should probably see the movie again, otherwise I really have no right to sit here and criticize it. 

I've never realized how big of a deal this tale is. And when i finish this book, I'll definitely put some more words on this wonderful book.

Yes, I'm writing in english, I only read english books, so I might as well just write in english.

Have a wonderful weekend, all of you dreamers.

Perks of being a wallflower

Jeg har læst denne meget populære bog, og jeg kan forstå hvorfor den har den status. Den indeholder en masse ungdoms-temaer som seksualitet, frygt, mod, selvmord, opgør, oprør og flere. Desuden synes jeg at bogens plot og opbygning er meget særlig. Det er nemlig hovedpersonen, Charlie der skriver breve, og læseren er så modtageren. Jeg har dog ikke set filmen, da jeg var fast besluttet på at jeg først ville se den efter jeg havde læst bogen. Så nu kan jeg få set den :-D

Kort resume, hovedpersonen Charlie er en wallflower. Og en wallflower er typen der ser ting andre ikke ser, lægger mærke til specielle ting, observere ting, holder sig tilbage, meget personlig, omsorgsfuld og ydmyg. Der er flere karaktertræk men det var lige de første. Charlie frygter sit første år i highschool. Han føler ikke han har noget tilhørssted, og føler sig alene. Heldigvis bliver han venner med Sam og Patrick som er søskende, og seniors. Han falder pladask for Sam, men får at vide at han ikke skal tænke på hende på den måde. Igennem handlingen står Charlie overfor drugs, ansvar, og sorg. Og efter et år med massere af problemer, formår Charlie at beholde sin identitet som wallflower.

Generelt når jeg læser bøger, får jeg skrevet de "quotes" der specielle, ned på min Iphone så jeg ikke glemmer dem. Og de quotes vil for mig, forblive et kendetegn for den bog.

-We take the love we think we deserve

- just think it's bad when a boy looks at a girl and thinks that the way he sees the girl, is better than the girl really is.

-He didn't even try to be cool and relate to me or anything. He was just himself about it.

-But even if we don't have the power to choose where we came from, we can still choose where we go from there.

-It's okay to feel things, and be who you are about them.
