everybody is a wild thing at heart.





this article is great.

i still haven't seen the movie - i am planning on seeing it this weekend, but i am so pumped! it's so funny how true this article is though...we are all wild things at heart. we can all resonate with the book and it is totally our generation...

recently i also read an article in the State News about how our generation is super into being emo. with music, with art, with our facebook/twitter statuses...a lot of the older generations believe that we are so fascinated with pain and sorrow because our generation has not yet truly experienced what it means. we have this misconception that to be real art it has to have pain imbedded in it...while those people who have actually lived through sorrow are usually trying to forget about it and surrounded themselves with the happier things of life and not just wallow in their misery...

i see the point of the articles. i think it's true. sometimes i wonder if we are just being too hard one ourselves though...
