Nostalgic!!!

We seem to be going through a period of nostalgia, and everyone seems to think yesterday was better than today. I don't think it was, and I would advise you not to wait ten years before admitting today was great.

If you are hung up on nostalgia, pretend today is yesterday and just go out and have one hell of a time.

Because you made me love books. I wish I could tell you about all the new books I have read..they are all thrillers eheheh but I gu...
You cry when your mother suddenly out of the blue wakes up sick..
