      Youth is a country full of daydreams

      What is your youth like?

      Is it also the same as mine, no matter how much I own, I always feel that it is not enough, I always feel that I can be so empty and flat in the season when others are blooming?

      There is no secret love, no public dreams, no passion for rebellion, and even no reason to exist. Even though he has never stopped holding a scholarship and faced countless enviable eyes, he still feels bored. Boring. Boring, boring, boring, boring.

      Life is too...

      teenagers are dangerous, people are vulnerable

      I don’t know why some people say that the second half turned better or something. . In my opinion, the teacher and the little boy are the same, they all say that the life that they continued to be sad has been saved by the beauty, but the timing is different or something. . The treatment is very different, Josh is so pitiful! ! !

      Criticizing the girls in the small town is too feudal and tamed by men, but kat herself is the best expectation of men, not to mention beautiful and sexy,...

      It’s still a youth romance film with new wine in a bottle. It has a killer line but it feels useless. Kat Dennings is also the kind of person who can influence the tone of the film with his own temperament. The whole film is just like the soundtrack, which is fairly small. Make a...

    Movie quotes

    • Jenny: [Seeing Caroline in the restroom] Ugh, slut.

      Caroline Wexler: What did you call me?

      Jenny: I think I just called you a slut, slut.

      Caroline Wexler: Why?

      Jenny: Because everyone knows that you've banged, like, forty different guys since you came here.

      Caroline Wexler: Really? Forty?

      [pause to look in mirror]

      Caroline Wexler: Okay, let's just say that I have banged forty guys. What's the problem? You're just jealous because you've been, ah, brainwashed by puritanical assholes who think sex is a sin. But then again, your, ah, little gerbil-sized brain has been reprogrammed by the media to believe that sex is the be-all, end-all. So now you're stuck, right? 'Cause on the one hand you love to fuck, but afterwards you feel overwhelmed by guilt & you're not sure why. Maybe it's because sex is neither as good or as evil as you've built it up to be.

      Jenny: [hurt pause] Shut up, slut!

      Caroline Wexler: Jenny, seriously, listen to me! The highlight of your entire life is gonna be your yearbook photo. You are already nostalgic for shit that has not even happened yet cause you have so precious little to look forward to. You're gonna spend the first half of your life planning your wedding and you're gonna spend the second half regretting it. And if I were you - and thank god I'm not, cause you have terrible hair - I would stop and I would reconsider your whole value system, because everything you know is wrong.

    • Caroline Wexler: People will tell you nothing matters, the whole world's about to end soon anyway. Those people are looking at life the wrong way. I mean, things don't need to last forever to be perfect.

    • Caroline Wexler: I think you're cute and I want to go out with you.

      Thurston Goldberg: [Brief pause] Really?
