I was crying over a movie. Yes, this never gets old. This makes me want to go to Japan and have a picture with the statue. How can it be too loyal for so many years? This is beautiful.

I have two dogs: Baron and Django. I am a bit scared of Baron, but not to Django. So. Basically. I hold Django most of the time. And just say Hi to Baron everytime I go to his place.

And because of this movie.

I tried to hold Baron,unfortunately he just barked at me. Whatever. I’ll try again tomorrow. He’s my first dog, my first baby. Huhu. All of a sudden, I fear him. I’ll try again tomorrow. :)

It is just sad that people are inconsiderate. Considering they have feelings too.

“Soul Alone by Hannah Baker

I meet your eyes
you don’t even see me
You hardly respond
when I whisper
hello
Could be my soul mate
two kindred spirits
Maybe we’re not
I guess we’ll never
know

My own mother
you carried me in you
Now you see nothing
but what I wear
People ask you
how I’m doing
You smile and nod
don’t let it end
there

Put me
underneath God’s sky and
know me
don’t just see me with your eyes
Take away
this mask of flesh and bone and
See me
for my soul

alone”
― Jay Asher, Thirteen Reasons Why

fishingboatproceeds: 1. Shailene Woodley is a brilliant actress...

fishingboatproceeds:

1. Shailene Woodley is a brilliant actress and Golden Globe nominee. I cannot think of any 18-year-old actress who has received the kind of critical acclaim that she has (she also won an Independent Spirit Award).

She auditioned for The Fault in Our Stars not because she needs the part (I mean, she’s in the new Spider Man movie, for God’s sakes) but because she loves the book. Her depth of understanding were immediately obvious in the audition and for me there could be no one else to play Hazel. (There were a bunch of really good auditions, but Shailene just understood Hazel as I imagined her.)

I am not particularly concerned with physical looks; Hollywood can fix that stuff. (Remember when Nicole Kidman became Virginia Woolf?) I’m concerned with whether she can embody the voice and experience and life of Hazel. She can.

2. Ansel Elgort is also a huge fan of TFiOS (it is, in fact, his favorite book). He was a high school basketball player who also happens to be a very intellectual guy. Most importantly, when he auditioned, he became Augustus. Watching him audition with Shailene, he was just Gus and she was just Hazel. He understood Gus, and clearly had a very deep and thoughtful relationship with the book. Honestly, I’m a bit confused as to how you can dislike an actor whose work you have definitionally never seen, since his first movie isn’t out yet.

3. Novelists do not cast movies, so these were not my decisions (although I did have a lot of input). But I’m defending them because I think they’re both perfect for their parts (and I’d tell you if I felt otherwise).

4. There seems to be some concern that Ansel and Shailene are playing siblings in a different movie. I guess I can understand that, but they’re actors. They can play different roles. They’ll look different and act different and be different. I mean, no one watched Silver Linings Playbook and thought, “When did Katniss move to the suburbs of Philadelphia?”

If the movie works, you’ll sit down in the theater and you won’t say, “Oh look it’s Shailene Woodley,” or, “Oh, look, it’s Tris from Divergent.” You’ll say, “Holy wow Hazel Grace.”

queeringmisogyny:

Just a sweet, simple story about a young man and a Bert doll:

23 years ago, I bought a stuffed doll for my son, a Bert doll from Sesame Street. It was then pass down to my youngest son Jonah who loved and cared for this doll with every thing in him. You see Jonah has Down syndrome and for some reason this doll meant everything to him.

He brought Bert to every appointment he had at CHEO* and there were plenty. When Jonah was 2 he was admitted to CHEO for a month. During his stay, he was in an Oxygen Tent and Bert never left his side. When they came to do therapy on him, Bert had to have the same treatment. When he went for his sleep study, Bert was hooked up to all the wires as well.
Bert is even in our Family Photo….he insisted that Bert had to be in our picture, after all he was part of his family.
I can’t tell you how this boy loved this doll.

Jonah is almost 18 now . Bert was loved to death, literally. His arms and legs were sown on several times, but it was now time to say good bye.

I have spent the last 2 years searching the Internet for another Bert just like the one Jonah loved so much. I had family and friends asking around. We have received a couple of Berts as a replacement but it was not the one he loved so dearly.

Friday, Nov 30th Jonah and I went up to buy a pair of shoes. We only buy from Kiddie Kobbler. When Jonah was getting sized I happened to see a Bert high up on the wall. I couldn’t believe my eyes, it was him..„, I was sure of it. The owner came around and I asked if that Bert happens to be a hand held puppet. I told him how Jonah loved his Bert and I could not find another anywhere. The owner told me that doll has been in the store for over 20 years, ever since the store opened…his good luck doll.
While I was helping Jonah with his shoes, the owner came up behind me holding Bert. Jonah’s eyes lit up, he knew his doll. The owner handed it over to Jonah and it was as if they were never separated.
He told me to keep it and said “Merry Christmas”.

It was all I could do not to cry right there in that shop. Jonah showed him to everyone who walked by as we were making our way out of the mall. He is now up in his room playing with Bert just as he has done all his childhood.

On my receipt, they wrote….Merry Christmas :)

I feel so blessed. Thank you to Kiddie Kobbler in Place d’Orleans Ottawa, their the best.
