the taste of growing up

This film uses Nadine's perspective to express, friendship, love, youth and growth. To be honest, after reading it, I can't tell where it is good, and there is indeed its own shadow everywhere. Those times when I was out of tune with the world.

Stubborn character, rebellious youth, always feel betrayed by the whole world, that kind of insecure performance, like a little crab protecting himself, waving crab claws to hurt everyone around him who is good to himself. Maybe everyone has experienced that stage, but think about how better you were at that time than Nadine in the film? Isn't that just youth, experiencing the so-called "betrayal", experiencing the so-called "love but not being able to", those lonely and helpless times that I have gone through. The boy in white in the dream of a thousand turns and a thousand lives exists in our minds like a god, but reality always gives us a slap in the face with a naked backhand.

People who love you are always waiting for you not far away~
