All books / Happy-Go-Lucky / Highlight


At twenty-two, you are built for poverty and rejection. And you know why? Because youre good-looking. You might not realize it this morning, but thirty years from now, you will pull out pictures of yourself taken on this day and think, Why did nobody tell me I was so fucking attractive? You maybe cant see it now because youre comparing yourself to the person next to you, or two rows up. But you are stunning.
