What's new...

Well... so far I am really bad at posting on this thing a lot.

Oh well I guess it is a treat when I do decide to grace you with my posts. Well things that are going on with me. I hav Finals next week and if I do poorly there is a chance that I might fail my first class... but I don't want to think about that.

I have a big small group preformance for my Band final.. I don't want to think about that either.

Or the fact that I am going to be playing in the pit for my school's musical preformance of Hairspray and the music is really hard and I am- Don't want to think about that either.

The fact that I get to meet John and Hank in eight days when the, TFIOS bus comes to town -don't want to think about that because it makes my stomache filp to think about it

My Band trip to Disneyland that is in 61 Days (Not that I am counting)

SO... I think I am going to talk about The Fault in Our Stars...

I read that someone else wrote something about it... so I am going to write something about it too because, I want to.

So far, I have been reading the book for three days and I am 3/4 through the book. It may be to early for me to call something but.

This book is great. Absolutly great. It makes me laugh, cry, burst out in anger and most of all Think.

That is the thing I love about Johns books they hit you on a emotional level that makes you think about things that happen all the time. Looking for Alaska made me question the worth of living, an Abundance of Katherines told me to reach for greatness Paper towns (haven't finished it yet) And so far,

TFIOS has made me think about what makes a life a worthy life to live. Is it to be great, to have friends, have memories, have thought... Which are all great messages that need to be sent to the teenagers of today.

That is is OKAY to be awkward, and it is OKAY to feel like you're stupid and worthless and that you don't want to go on and that it's part of being a teenager to want to quit but we can't.

Take a message from the women of John Greens novels.

Take chances and be happy about them because that's what makes life great.

Tomorrow my goal is to finish the book. I'll tell you what I think but I am sure I am going to have the same opinion in the end.

DFTBA
best wishes.
