What I Should Have Said: Drugs

WHAT I SHOULD HAVE SAID

"Actually, I think neither is cool. Drugs aren't cool. Alcohol isn't cool. Not for us. Not for our age. We have more to live for than drugs. Than sex. Than alcohol. We have to change the world. People are looking at us. Saying 'what are they going to do next?' God, I don't know. What are we going to do next? Let's think about it. Over a beer. What movie, what great creation, what cure will we think of next? Something amazing, let's smoke to that. And let's celebrate my earth shattering novel in a dirty, romantic way. Yes. We're teenagers. That's how we live. But it's not cool. It's how we're supposed to be. But for a society so bent on not being labelled and stereotyped, we sure as hell have don't have an issue with drugs, sex, and alcohol. Because screw the world. We have our indulgences. It's the only thing we ever wanted."

What I Should Have Said: Kindergarden Friends

WHAT I SHOULD HAVE SAID

"Yeah. Yeah, we all still talk, it's true. There are nine of us from kindergarden to grade two. Only nine. Three boys, six girls. But that's it. Just us nine. The rest of us fell apart. They left. And we continued on to stand there at the end, the only ones who started here and finished here, didn't take any detours, didn't leave and come back. Do we still talk? Yeah. We still talk. Sometimes, though. Sometimes ... I wish we didn't. It would make a better story."

What I Should Have Said: Ancient Civilizations

WHAT I SHOULD HAVE SAID

"I hate it when you play basketball. I hate it when you're not sitting here with me and everyone else is sitting with their others. I hate it when you abandon me. I love you, doofus. Now shut the hell up, put down that orange basketball, and kiss me. Sit with me. Hold my hand. Be there. Just stay away from the basketball courts, for one day."

WHAT I SHOULD HAVE SAID

"I'll miss you. You guys were good people. Some of you, I hate. Some of you, I wish to never see again. But I hope that you will go far. I love you guys. I love you more than anyone could believe. And we shouldn't be saying goodbye. I know we said we'll stay in touch. We won't. That's a lie. We won't stay in touch. We'll fall apart. But I will miss you and I do love you. I love you. I love you. I love you."
