I can't believe I never saw Reality Bites

One of the draw backs of marrying young I suppose. I couldn't relate to this movie at the time, and somehow almost 15 years later I can. I was 25 when this movie came out. This was my time. Except I was married and raising a baby and living in another generation at the time.  Two of my favorite lines:

Oh yea I win the Big Commitment Cookoff and  welcome to the land of the emotionally mature both by Winona after the she sleeps with Ethan Hawke.  I need to use those lines. 

Maybe Kim's death made me realize that I don't want to waste time of useless emotions. Emotions on a relationship that doesn't give me what i need are useless.  By ignoring it, I have and am giving it emotional energy and I don't have it to give.

Another great line: A planet of regret sitting on my shoulders. 

I mean who wrote this movie, and why haven't I seen it before!!

I think I was a little too young for it. I might have to watch it again!
