The movie itself was very interesting, but I didn't think it was very good because I didn't really feel different when it was over.
Stephen Chboskybut my dad said it was no excuse. "But I love him!" I had never seen my sister cry that much. "No, you don't." "I hate you!" "No, you don't." My dad can be very calm sometimes. "He's my whole world." "Don't ever say that about anyone again. Not even me." That was my mom.
Stephen ChboskyDear friend, I feel great! I really mean it. I have to remember his for the next time I'm having a terrible week. Have you wer done that? You feel really bad, and then it goes away, and you don't know why. I try to remind myself when I feel great like this that there will be another terrible week coming someday, so I should store up as many great details as I can, so during the next terrible week, I can remember those details and believe that I'll feel great again. It doesn't work a lot, but I think it's very important to try.
Stephen ChboskyWriting a novel is a lot like directing a movie because you are creating a world and a tone, you are creating a large canvas and all the details.
Stephen ChboskyI donโt know if youโve ever felt like that. That you wanted to sleep for a thousand years. Or just not exist. Or just not be aware that you do exist. Or something like that. I think wanting that is very morbid, but I want it when I get like this. Thatโs why Iโm trying not to think. I just want it all to stop spinning.
