"half in love"

"I was half in love with her by the time we sat down. That's the thing about girls. Every time they do something pretty, even if they're not much to look at, or even if they're sort of stupid, you fall half in love with them, and then you never know where the hell you are. Girls. Jesus Christ. They can drive you crazy. They really can." ~J.D. Salinger, The Catcher in the Rye, Chapter 10


I really like this quote. It reminds you of how you feel when you meet a girl and you like them but don't know them. It's not who they are because you don't know who exactly that is. But it's what you perceive them to be by the things they do such as the cute things that just drive you crazy. It doesn't last but it gets you through the night. That's how I think of it.


This is pretty random too but for some reason whenever I'm away from the computer I have nothing to say but when I open this page up I swear I could type for hours straight about anything at all. Maybe I should start writing more often and if it turns out to be something I could consider pursuing a career in it because honestly it's starting to interest me the more I read and the more I think. Then to be even more honest I don't think I'm very good at it. I just enjoy it. But enjoying things doesn't get you very far in life because nobody appreciates it like you do. Anyways, I'd wanna write one of those books that don't have a genius plot but it's still clever and there's still a depressed and confused yet wise tone to the character. The kind that gives more thought than action. Where you have to read into it to enjoy it. Talk about having a "No Idiots Allowed" stamp on the front. It could be the next classic. Like The Catcher in the Rye and The Perks Of Being a Wallflower. There's just too much to consider yet some of the best choices in my life have been made on impulse. Then again so have the worst but it hasn't stopped me yet.
