- I love Girls. The mirror that it holds up to the lives of everyday "getting-out-there-and-doing-it" ladies such as myself is mesmerizing. This is one of those shows I would have killed for as a teenager; the material is tawdry and would have pissed my mother off (Hello? Shoshanna explaining to Hannah that Jessa has a couple of different strains of HPV and that "all adventurous women do" HA). I look at Jessa as how i was when i was 19-22. Lush, ballsy and guns a-blazing. Shoshanna is a Bronies wet dream, sweetly naive but trying to break out and be free like cousin Jessa. Marnie makes me want to shoot myself but only because i feel i am most similar to her at this point in my life. She is nagging, overly responsible and projects her expectations on others. Hannah is how every girl usually is in a going-nowhere relationship: clingy at first and then like "i don't need you but I'll keep you even though i know you don't need me" mentality.
- Also, I watched Eternal Sunshine of a Spotless Mind today and it reminded me of another stanza from Alexander Pope's Eloisa to Abelard.
- No, fly me, fly me, far as pole from pole;
- Rise Alps between us! and whole oceans roll!
- Ah, come not, write not, think not once of me,
- Nor share one pang of all I felt for thee.
so there.
