December 26,1991 & December 30, 1991

"I don't know if you've ever felt like that. That you wanted to sleep for a thousand years. Or just not exist. Or just not be aware that you do exist. Or something like that." - The Perks of Being a Wallflower/ Page 100

I'm usually the kind of blogger who is all funny and so on, but after reading those two letters I feel pretty sad actually.

Charlie gets home from his dad's family and remembers why his Aunt Helen moved in with them. That she was abused by a friend of the family when she was younger and nobody would believe her. How she began to drink a lot and do drugs. Until she reached the point, she decided to get help which she did.

I feel really sorry about that. There are such a lot of people out there and such bad things always happen to the good people. It's kind of sad that they get hurt for no proper reason. Or no reason at all...

Since Charlie was born on the 24th of December his aunt always gave him two presents unlike everyone else. So on the evening of the 24th he handed the car keys to his aunt and she left to buy him another present. But she didn't come back anymore.
A policeman came to their house and told them she died in a car accident. And the worst thing of all is that Charlie blames himself for her death, because if she'd bought him just one present like everyone else she would still be alive.

Charlie was seven when that happened so I think most of you can understand the way he felt or still feels. As a child you always about your part in a story. And most of the time it's the bad/worst part.

He also visits her grave and talked to her about his life.

I personally think that's a good idea, because eventhough they aren't there anymore physically, they'll always be in your heart, am I right?

Well I suppose I see you soon.

December 23, 1991 & December 25,1991

"I think it would be great if sledding were always enough, but it isn't." - The Perks of Being a Wallflower/ Page 78

It's getting so christmasy :D one more week to go. Well actually 9 days but that's not that important (;

I have already all my presents at home and wrapped them today, but Charlie hasn't...

On the 23rd of December he bought his presents. Who buys them two days before Christmas?!

Well, he didn't know what to get his dad, so do I. I honestly have no idea what to get him. Let's just skip that part.

So he's going to his dad's parents' house for the holidays and he's upset like always, mostly cause Sam and Patrick didn't call him for his birthday (24rd of December).

Charlie, you have shitty best friends. If they forget about you birthday you should probably get some new ones.

Worse than forgetting about a birthday is giving them a bad present. Like a pair of socks. Wait. Patrick did that (;

I got my worst present about 3 years ago. I wished for a new camera and my mum wenr to the mall with me to buy it. I chose a nice one and my mum sent me to another story, so she could get it wrapped.
On Christmas Eve I opened that present and was like 'oh my god, a camera.'
I opened the box and... it was empty. I thought my mum was messing with me and I said to her "Mum, there is no camera inside."
She just laughed at me and replied "Sure there is.", thinking I've gone completly insane.
At the end we found out, that the shop attendent had forgotten to put the camera back in and wrapped the empty box.

WORST PRESENT EVER!!
Sooo... I think that's probably enough for today (;
Lots of love

"The outside lights were on, and it was snowing, and it looked like magic. Like we were somewhere else. Like we were someplace better." - The Perks of Being

Hey guys ;) I know it's been some time, but I was ill this week and wasn't up to upload anything.

As you can see, even in the book Christmas is coming :)
So Charlie has delivered all his Secret Santa gifts to Patrick and he received a lot of... shit.
How would you feel, if you'd get socks. and everything else, you need for a suit.
I would be really pissed about that, but Charlie seems to like it.

Well not that much, but he still likes it and when he gets his last gift he is really happy about that. Let's have a guess what he got.... a suit. YAY! Everything I've ever wanted (sarcasm)

His Secret Santa is actually Patrick and from Sam and him, he got a typewriter, cause all big authors have on. Does that mean, I have to get one? Or not?

Wait, I'm just some girl, who is probably the worst blogger ever, cause she is writing total nonsense.

Back to the book, the only other thing worth mentioning is, that Sam kissed him, cause she wanted his first kiss to be with someone who loves him.

If you like him that much, why did you friend zone him? Gosh, girl get your stuff together.

Sooooo... That's it for today. Keep on eating bacon :)

December 7, 1991 & December 11, 1991

"I hope it's the kind of second side that he can listen to whenever he drives alone and feel like hw belongs to something whenever he's sad." - The Perks of Being a Wallflower/Page 66

Since it's December it's also that very special time of the year in the book.

I have to say, I personally love Christmas with all my heart. It's just that everyone turns out to be either nice or completely stressed out by gift shopping, decoration etc.

I hope y'all know Secret Santa,cause that's Charlie is talking about in those letters. He has got Patrick, so for his first present he got him a mixtape wirh lots of "cool" songs on it.
I own that book for about 2 years now and I've never listened to that one special song, which always seema to apear. If any of you wouls like to listen to it, it's "Asleep" by The Smiths.

Let me know what you think about it (;

Charkie has got from his Secret Santa a pair of socks. So creative.

And you don't want to be rude, so you act all jolly and happy, like it's the best present you've ever recieved... Let me know what your worst present was (;

well, see yah fellows (:

November 12, 1991 & November 15, 1991

I just realized, that I'm literally the dummest person ever. I was looking through my blog entries, cause I couldn't remember when I stopped, like the dates of tthe letters. And I was like 'Oh, so the last one was November 7, 1991.'
Well, as you might have noticed it wasn't... I forgot to upload it ._.

I think I should just blogging in the evening, cause I get sooo damn random.

Weird thing is, I couldn't find any quotes to put in the beginning. I searched in every goddamn line for one, but nope. Not a single one there.

So back to the main topic. The bokk.Yaaay (please note the sarcasm)

So it's basically, that his brother is in college, as we all know and that he didn't call one single time. And about how pretty his mom was.

That's actually kind of nice (;

Since it's nearly midnight here and I did Christmas shopping all day long, that's it (;

See you guys sooooon (:

P.S.: did you know you can buy baconflavoured chocolate? O.o

A special blog for a special man

"We can change the world and make it a better place. It is in your hands to make a difference." - Nelson Mandela

At first I just want to say, sorry, I didn't upload anything yesterday, but I was just so tired that I didn't have any energy to do it.

As you might have already noticed, today the topic isn't going to be "The Perks of Being a Wallflower". Today it's all about Nelson Mandela, a great man who did everything for his country.
So if you don't want to read this, you can skip it and come back tomorrow.

I haven't heard about Mandela, till I was 14 or something like that. In one of our classes we watched the movie "Invictus" which is about him, staring Morgan Freeman.
I know, that's not a lot, but there is one thing that film thought me.

It's important to stand up for yourself and try your best to be the person you want to be. It doesn't matter what your enemies might have done to you, as long as you can forgive them.

We worry such a lot about what we should wear, about school or boyfriends/girlfriends, but we forget the main reason, what life is about. It's about helping each other and loving you friends, family and even the strangers on the street as much as you can.

We spend such a lot of time, hating on someone and most of the time we can't even remember why we do. We should spend that time with the family or with friends, cause nobody know how long this bonds might last.

What Nelson Mandela told me, was to keep believing in myself and that even after the biggest storm, the sun will always shine.

All my best wishes to his family, his friends, his supporters.

"I just look at her sometimes and I think she is the prettiest and nicest person in the whole world." - The Perks of Being a Wallflower / Page 51

As you might alread noticed this chapter is about love. Charlie literally wrote two letters about it, but both are a lot different.

The first one is about Patrick and his 'friend' Brad. The met at a party and at some point they were both drunk and started fooling around. But in school Brad used to tell people that he was so drunk he didn't remember anything. That went on for months till they slept with eachother on a party. Brad didn't talk to Patrick all summer, so they both were hurt by his action, cause they were really fond of each other. One night Brad stood infronz of Patrick's house, telling him, they'd have to keep quiet about their relationship, so they could still meet each other.

A bit like 'Romep and Juliet' isn't it? The two misunderstood lover who hide their relationship from the rest of the world. Pathetic but romantic.

The second letter is about Sam having a boyfriend aand Charlie being jelouse, cause her boyfriend 'doesn't see her beauty as much as I do'.

Obviously he does, cause otherwise they wouldn't be a couple. Daah

Oh and they watch Rocky Horror Picture Show. That's literally like my favourite musical ever! Hope all off you've seen it. It's so awesome and the cast is just hilarious. I don't want to say anything more about it, cause I don't want to spoil any of you (;

Well see you tomorrow (;
Bacon, bacon, bacon

" And in that moment, I swear we were infinite." - The Perks of Being a Wallflower

Last letter if tthe first part and I've blogged about every single one. I feel kind of proud about it (;

Charlie tells the story about his first party. After Sam, Patrick and him left the football game, they have gone to a friend's house to have aome fun. And Charlie, that innocent boy, at a hash brownie ;D

This book is hilarious. hahahah

Oh and Patrick has a thing with the quarterback, if you know what I mean.

I finally realized why the book is called 'The Perks of Being a Wallflower'. It all happens to be explained in this chapter. At that friends party, his name is Bob by the way, he calls Charlie a wallflower. That he underatands and keeps quiet about it. That's actually really deep...

Dude, you are so deep, I can't see you anymore. (;

Charlie also talks about the homecomming dance. Would someone please explain the reasons for such a dance? Cause I don't get it....

That's actually all what the letter is about. (;

G'night my dear loved ones.
Love always,
Char.... Jules (;

"Charlie, we accept the love we think we deserve" - The Perks of Being a Wallflower

Best way to start of a new chapter, in this book a letter is to talk about masturbation. I'm serious right now! Charlie is actually talking about fapping. He also thinks it would be better to have masturbation breaks instead of coffee breaks.

I read the beginning and I was like 'What the actually fudge?!' Funny thing was, I was in public and everyone around me looked at me really strange.

So in this chapter he is telling Bill about that one boy who hit his sister. And Bill called his parents. And they shouted at her. Well, their father did. Their mother was just standing next to him silently.

Oh I nearly forgot. Charlie had a dirty dream about Sam. Which was kind of weird, cause he took it too seriously and started crying. Again....

The next letter is even worse. He starts off that Patrick told him about fapping. And that he's doing it a lot, since he knew about it. He also used different items which is kind of weird. He even talked to God, cause he felt so bad.

What the F***?!

I know this is not really appropriate, but what would you do in my situation?

Well, the rest of the letter is about his dad, talking to the boy's parents, who hit Charlie's sister. So not really important. Maybe it is, but I don't care ;)

This is literally the one sentence I use in every blog. Gosh, I'm boring. I can't think about other words to describe my disinterest. It's not about the book, it's just about that one special chapter or letter, whatever you want to call it.

So see yah soon I guess....
I love bacon :)

P.S.: Holy Mother of God! I can change colors :D

September 29, 1991 & October 6, 1991

"A lot of it is good, but a lot of it is bad. Again, I don't know why this always happens.", The Perks of Being a Wallflower

I'm kind of getting frustrated. Firstly it's December and they are already playing 'Last Christmas' by Wham. Which annoyes me to death.
Secondly the whole concept of Charlie's letters confuses me.

At first he is talking about his C in English, then about the dentist, then about a TV-show and back again to the dentist.

I just don't get it. What's up with switching topics all the time?!

Okay, calm down...

So you already know about the summary, so I'm just going to review it DailyGrace style. *zing*

Wait. Before I do that, the second letter. So basically it's just about how he got to know Patrick, aka Nothing, and Sam, aka Emma Watson.

There isn't actually a lot to review. Charlie just thinks Sam and Patrick are a couple, which they aren't they are brother and sister, for all of you who haven't watched the film OR read the book.

You should do actually. I have to admit, that if you use this dor a book report, you might get s bad grade (;

Back to Charlie he's just so innocent. Nobody could be naïver than him. Except Jack Harris maybe. Most of the time, I'm like 'aww isn't that adoreable?' or I'm like 'what the fudge?!'

So that's all for today. See yah tomorrow I guess... Bye.

Or to say it in Charlie's words...

Love always,
Charlie... wait my name isn't Charlie. :D hahaha I'm so not funny.

Lots of bacon
