Perks of Being A Wallflower

This movie has been all the buzz. It is a movie i had wanted to see for a very long time and everyone i knew didn't want to see it. I finally met up with an old friend and we went and watched  this and it was everything you are looking for in a movie. The term emotion rollercoaster is thrown around so much that is what this movie is. The story is about a kid who is trying to make friends after a very tragic accident changed his life. He's not looking for sympathy just for a place to belong. It takes you to all the places that are wrong with high school, peer pressure, alcohol drug use and much much more. Logan Lerman plays an amazng Charlie, and Emma Watson is magical playing in her first role since book worm Hermione Granger in Harry Potter. It is a movie that will have you leaving the theater talking about it. This to me is THE best movie of 2012. Must see and i give it 10/10.
This of course is an adaptation of the critically acclaimed book "Perks of Being A Wallflower" that is written through a series of letters from the main character Charlie. The book dives more into detail about the struggles Charlie deals with on a daily basis. This is a book for the ages and the messages relayed in this book go far beyond high school! I cannot say enough about this movie and this book only that if you read one book and see one movie make it this book and this movie.

Be who you want to be

I sit here waiting for my day to come to an end and the only thing i can think of is what am i going to do when i get home. the basic answer is put on my favorite pair of black nike basketball shorts and watch some TV. but there is part of me that wants to do more than that. I have had the urge to go out and do anything. I like staying in and watching TV but that also leaves me alone. I think that is a fear most people could relate too. I don't know why i'm putting it on a blog no one probably ever reads or even knows it exists. But hopefully this reaches that one person who decides to keep reading what i'm writing. In today's society it's all about being different, which is a good thing. But don't be different because its cool. Don't be popular because you think thats the right way to go. You should be you! I saw a movie Wednesday called "Perks Of Being A Wallflower" and that's the single greatest message that movie gives. Be yourself, don't try to mold yourself into something you aren't proud of. Anyone who looks at you different or makes you feel ashamed of you isn't someone who you want to hang around with. I don't know why im putting all my thoughts together like this and just rambling on and on about nothing. I just think it is a great story and idea. I am not going to  sit here and say i have never done anything influenced by peer pressure because that would be a lie. But as i got older and alcohol, marijuana, bars, pointless sex just didn't do it for me anymore. Don't get me wrong they are expierences that led me down a path that got me here and maybe i needed each expierence to make me the person i am today. All i know as i get older i care less and less about what other people think, i only care about how i live my life. But i must be careful and not think about all the things that brought me to this point i must continue to contribute to life and continue to live my life and not hide in my room because "Life might pass you by"

Thank you
