Grab your favorite book, be it a novel or quote dictionary. Name the book. Ask five questions and flip to a random page. Post your answers, interpret them, and tag five people.
I'm typing the 5 questions first. The book is The Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger. It was on my floor, not my bookshelf because I needed it yesterday.
NOT saying that it's my favorite book, not saying it's not. I get weird when people ask me my favorite anything. Or when people ask me anything at all.
1. Should I tell him how I feel?
"I started thinking how old Phoebe would feel if I got pneumonia and died. It was a childish way to think, but I couldn't stop myself. She'd feel pretty bad if something like that happened. She likes me a lot. I mean she's quite fond of me. She really is. Anyway, I couldn't get that off my mind, so finally what I figured I'd do, I figured I'd better sneak home and see her, in case I died and all."
I think this means we'd better confess our undying love for each other. Think of how sad we'd be if the other died!
2. Was I selfish?
"But I don't feel like discussing it. It wasn't too nice. Don't ever try it. I mean it. It'll depress you."
I don't think I have to interpret this one.
3. What's my biggest flaw?
.."he's behaving like a perfect- I don't know what...
I'm behaving like a... I don't know what!
4. What do I have to look forward to?
"It made me feel better. It made me feel not so depressed anymore."
What makes me feel better? Something makes me feel not so depressed anymore.
5. Advice on future love?
"Certain things should stay the way they are. You ought to be able to stick them in one of those big glass cases and leave them alone."
Alone forever!
OR, trying to be positive... it could mean that things are good right now and later in life I'll probably look back at this time and wish things had stayed how they were.
