We all walk from the edge back to our center

I like youth campus movies, it seems to be mindless and happy.

The story isn't as head-scratching as Juno's. The little girls aren't pregnant and don't take drugs, but they still feel like they're trying to kill themselves. This was the same way when I was in my teens. The most depressing period was middle school, not high school. For a while every day I thought about death, forget it, life is tasteless, the future is hopeless, everything is meaningless, and the universe has abandoned me! Every day I want to improve my sense of existence, but when I get to school, I can't wait to get into the cracks in the ground, and then I just break the jar and smash. Although I studied well, I was on the verge of growing up. The novels I wrote were all about the psychopaths of the protagonists who would die, or else the end of the world and humanity would be wiped out. But all the pain and hatred was actually due to my short haircut that was forced to be cut in school with steel teeth in orthodontics. This combination really made my image look ugly and ugly, so even today, none of my junior high school classmates, especially boys, can remember my existence. My inferiority complex is just like the girl in the film, I feel that I am not good-looking and unpopular. Her reference is her handsome brother, and mine is all beautiful girls. Although at that age, everything seems to be a fuss, nothing to find trouble, no zuo no die, but the feeling of not having self-confidence is really bad! Looking back on who I am today, if I'm still that ugly, my confidence is going to collapse.

I love the teacher played by Woody Harrelson very much, which is in line with his usual cynic on the surface but a super warm-hearted man on the inside. After listening to his student's confession that he was going to commit suicide, his response was so funny that the little girl instantly forgot the deadly theme of suicide, and turned to quarrel with the teacher in anger. This teacher is indeed a teen mental health expert! Thinking of my junior high school head teacher, if he heard the same remarks from me, he would immediately face a big enemy. After psychological counseling, he would have to invite parents to drink tea, but it was always a false alarm - the death plan that can be announced will always be only teenagers Just a show.

Seeing the sunny Chinese teenagers with six-pack abs makes me very happy with the changes in the image of Chinese teenagers in Hollywood movies today: they are not nerds, they like socializing, they like sports, and they are still a rich second generation! It is simply the fifth king of diamonds!
