someone left this book at my house the other night.
it was a scholastic book, so i assumed it would be along the lines of "tales of a fourth grade nothing", or "superfudge."
and since both of those were personal favorites of mine, back when i was a fourth and fifth grade nothing, i decided to read for at least a few pages.
i read the whole book with a wide eyed intensity.
this book could not have been more timely.
i now highly suggest "stargirl" by jerry spinelli.
it made me realize (along with a few other sources, like eternal sunshine of the spotless mind) what it was that i am looking for in a girl.
i think that guys like me, or maybe just me, are looking for a girl that will save them.
a girl that will remind them that they are alive.
i want a girl that will shake the fiber of my existence and make me go beyond myself constantly.
i want a stargirl.
i want a amelie.
i want a clementine.
i want a challenge.
i want the pursuit.
i dont want the relationship to come easy, i want to have to work for it; to earn it.
as i say all of this i wonder, why do i need a girl to save me?
why cant i become a free spirit on my own?
and i guess my only answer to that is, if i save myself there will be no making out involved.
