one thing that pleased me so much about the “to all the boys ive loved before” movie was that it portrayed high school so realistically. like, the casual mentions of/the usage of social media (like peter mentioning watching chris’ snapchat story, or the etiquitte of commenting on someone’s IG photo of you) was just so accurate. they didnt go completey over the top when it came to social groups and popularity. like, you can tell peter and gen are popular, but the crowd in the hallway doesnt part when they walk through. theyre treated like normal (albeit cooler) people among their peers, not royalty. it doesnt try to pull that “text sent around the school and everyone receives it at the same time and laughs at the victim” gag that SOME high school dramas like to pull despite it NEVER happening in real life (cough 13 reasons why cough). the scene with the photo on the locker required some suspension of belief, but it was done in a way that literally could have been done to someone before, and i can forgive it. even in the party scene, it was just most people standing around and talking. no one was puking in a vase, or doing kegstands, or dancing on a table, and ive been to many a highschool house party that was literaly just. people standing around, drinking and talking. this movie felt like actual teenagers were consulted in the making, not some middle aged writers who forget high school and get movie tropes confused with memory. in this essay i will

Meet Maggie Rogers, the Pharrell Williams-approved producer:

“Maggie Rogers had not written music for nearly three years when, in a cascade of creativity this past March, it took her fifteen minutes to produce a song called “Alaska.” Four days later, Rogers, then a senior at NYU, played the track—which combines the confessional lyricism of folk music with a trotting electronic rhythm—in a master class hosted by Pharrell Williams. “Wow. I have zero, zero, zero notes for that,” Williams said afterward, almost teary-eyed. “It’s singular… . And that is such a special quality.” The video went viral.”

And so you got drunk with him. Even though 13-year-old you swore that you would never drink. And you sat next to him at a party with 100 other people. And you memorised his eyes and felt alive.  And when he told a joke, you laughed. Properly laughed. Laughed so much that you could barely breathe. And when you looked up, he was still gazing at you as intently as when you’d looked away. And at some point in the night, he reached for your hand and you let him. And you found your fingers curling around his like they knew something you didn’t.  And you were happy. And it was like you’d never felt that kind of happiness before. And you told him clumsily, your head on his chest, “please don’t hurt me, I won’t know what to do if you do.“  And he kissed your forehead and said, "okay”. And somehow, somehow, that “okay” was enough for you.
