E. LockhartI love the idea of the big life - the life that matters, the life that makes a difference. The life where stuff happens, where people take action. The opposite of the life where the girl can't even speak to the boy she likes; the opposite of the life where the friends aren't even good friends, and lots of days are wasted away feeling bored and kind of okay, like nothing matters much.
E. LockhartMeghan pushed her chocolate cheesecake across the table to me. I hadnโt gotten paid yet for November, so I had only ordered coffee. โHere,โ she said. โDonโt you want it?โ โSure I want it. I ordered it. But Iโm giving it to you.โ โWhy?โ Meghan stood up and got me a fork. โRemember what Nora said about love? In your movie?โ โLove is when you have a really amazing piece of cake, and itโs the very last piece, but you let him have it,โ I said. โSo itโs really amazing cake,โ said Meghan. โAnd I want you to have it.
