This is a quote i rather liked from a fantastic book i just read called The Catcher in the Rye.

I was about 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.

Ain't that the truth? It maybe a little trival teenage sorta thing, but just some of the small pretty things that happen, be it a look, kiss, hug all these small little notions that just make everything so different, but good, i guess? you never know where the hell you are is the perfect summation, i think
Maybe i am a little trivial or something about this, but these small things always do spur things for me and do little weird things for me with a lot of different girls.

Interesting. Kinda true, i guess.

Btw, what's the book about?

To respond to Kifferfong's question,

Its pretty mcuh a book that takes place over 2 or 3 days. This late teen gets kicked out of school (again) and goes to the city. Its fun because he bitches everybody out and everything, in his own silent way. Weird and fun. Had to read it for school a couple months ago. Alot of under the surface stuff if I remember correctly.

Very true indeed.

Do I remember correctly that Catcher In the Rye was banned for some time in certain states?

good quote.

i fall in love everyday with life more and more.

catcher in the rye is a book about a boy and his inner dialogue between himself and his journey back home after getting kicked out of school.. it's a good book if you want to get inside a young boy's head, who somewhat thinks "outside the box".

it is true. sometimes a girl will do something and i'll just be swept off my feet. its odd but it happens. someone i may have seen for weeks or months but never paid any attention can do one little thing and then i'll be crushing on her like a rock

I fall in love way too easily. Good passage from the book, though. It's easy to see beauty in that which we do not conventionally associate with beauty.

Sleepyjack

Cool, i am not alone

Falling in love is fun
