Austin G

is anyone alive here?

@adjppm that all and it was soooo unrealistic. I handled it for a while, but it got rediculous when the mom let the kids go out in a city they don't know. I had to put the book down.
          
          IM NOT HEARTLESS I SWEAR.

@adjppm ikr xD I died. The hopeless romantic in me wishes he was real. Of course not sick though. ANYWAYS I HAVE NEWS
          I GOT INTERNET MY DEAR FRIEND (; We must catch up!!!! My bro has yet to set up my baby, and I mean my computer. Cross your fingers its soon (8 I need yo advice cause you are the silk titan. And this silk goddess needs help from the silk titan. Excuse my horrid grammar. (~ A _A)~

@SWSAAFIR "He was talking about his ballessness again . . ." - LOL worthy.
          
          I liked Gus in the same sense you like Dobby the house-elf ('Harry Potter' in case you didn't know); you like who he is, but you know he can't be real.
          
          And Green didn't give me an epilogue for Hazel! D: It's 'An Imperial Afflication' all over again!

@adjppm LOLOLOL. You finally read it yay (8 I must agree with you that hazel grace is awesome and Gus was a odd sort of character but the overly girlie side of me still loves him 8D I thought peter was a completely blunt drunkard LOL. NOt surprised you liked hazel grace 8D I was laughing at the first page or second with the ball cancer thing. I love it 8D lolol

@SWSAAFIR So I got 'The Fault in Our Stars' last night. I read it all without stopping for ten consecutive minutes.
          
          Though I really did love the story and Hazel (Grace), I found I really didn't care when (spoiler alert!) Gus died. He seemed almost unreal to me. At first he was casually charismatic, and then suddenly he was loosing control over something so minute as he didn't know what happened at the end of the story. Like, I get it-you want to know what happened. But four texts (two in caps, I think) in such rapid succession-dude, calm down. 
          
          And then, of course, there was the grammar. Though I'm sure it was grammatically acceptable, minute things such as capitals in sentences in reference to a barely-distinguishable title was rather irksome. 
          
          That said, I must reiterate. I loved the sarcasm and sophistication Hazel rendered so casually in the apex of her annoyance; the way she demeaned things not a side effect of cancer, but a side effect of dying; the way she accepted reality so starkly, whether it be a cancer perk or of her impending death; Hazel Grace was the apex of awesomeness. 
          
          Peter van Houten was also an enjoyable character; while I see attempts to make him likeable (and failing, to be honest, in my opinion), I didn't care. I don't need to like a character; I need to be interested in one. Peter van Houten was of the upmost intelligence, vocabulary his sword, while the-quote-"sword of Damocles" hangs so threateningly over his mental stability, thus forcing him to take shelter in alcohol. This was interesting, to the point where more words would ruin the meaning of the former. And damn, more words have appeared.
          
          And Lidewij was awesome as well. Her profound apologetic nature, while still finding the courage to figuratively bitchslap her boss at her personal finical expense, was inspiringly.  
          
          And then the heart-pulling realization that sang so loudly in the page; that one day, all of us our going to die. This, I find, is truly a fault in our stars.  

@SWSAAFIR :D I do try. And surely more people recognize you as a college student over a twelve-year-old.

@adjppm Oh you sweet talker (8 But no. LOL. I get mistaken for, like, 12 cause I'm a super tiny 5'3 fifteen year old. Not to sound vain or anything LOL. My ego was made <3

@adjppm The Avatar one is far more interesting if I say so myself, but it was a pleasure telling you, and I hope it makes you feel better.
          
          The easiest way to look at it is that there are simply several different ways we have almost reached a state of immortality, with science expanding faster and faster there is no doubt we will have it within 50 years. Even if not then medical technology would probably still be able to extend our lives long enough for immortality to finally come.
          The important thing is that there is basically no chance that we won't live to see immortality.

@Reretzu :D and XD. I'll have to look into this (I think the Avatar one is a bit more interesting). Thanks for telling me, and :D again.
