The Sisterhood of The Traveling Pants. Watching this movie, I miss you from beginning to end.
Four girls, seventeen and eighteen years old, encounter, grow, and life is always fresh.
Every child, if they don't move frequently, should have a partner who grows up together, just like you and me. We live very close together, and you come and invite me to school every morning. When your crisp voice sounded downstairs, my dad would stick his head out of the window and come here, she was putting on her shoes. Sometimes, I accidentally oversleep, you don't mind coming up and sitting, laughing at my disheveled hair and sleepy eyes. do you know? Uncles, aunts, grandparents, and grandparents in the whole yard know my name because of your loud voice and clear articulation, day after day, year after year.
During summer vacation, we spend all day together. You come to my house for dinner, and I go to your house to watch TV (here is an intertext). In the evening, we opened the workbooks, placed our pens in place, and pinched them. At half past five, you immediately ran up, turned off the TV, grabbed a small spray can, and sprinkled some water on the back of the TV. You said, to cool the TV. Ten minutes later, the sound of high-heeled shoes squeaked on the stairs. Auntie came back from get off work and touched the TV. It was cold. She smiled, she was so good, and she still did her homework. I closed the book, auntie, I went home for dinner. My aunt nodded to me, and I'll do my homework tomorrow.
When I was a kid, my dad had a neat beard and looked fierce. Other children are very afraid of him, but you don't, you always call yourself uncle. The strange thing is that he has a good temper now, and everything depends on me. I was upset, and he deliberately sang loudly to make me happy. In this way, I will have a good temper when I get old. I'm so bad-tempered, do you feel unaccustomed to it? However, everyone said that my personality followed my father's, and it was still possible.
I watched this movie yesterday, and I don't know why, I suddenly thought of you.
When I was a child, I always felt that time passed slowly. Take a nap and keep counting the beads of the chandelier on the ceiling, one, two, three...
and then, we're all twenty.

The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants quotes

  • Carmen: [voiceover] It would be easy to say that the pants changed everything that summer. But looking back now I feel like our lives changed because they had to, and that the real magic of the pants was in bearing witness to all of this and in somehow holding us together when it felt like nothing would ever be the same again.

    [pause]

    Carmen: Some things never would be

    Lena: But we know now that no matter how far we traveled on our own separate paths...

    Bridget: Somehow we would always find out way back to each other.

    Tibby: And with that, we could get through anything.

    Bridget: To us. Who we were, and who we are. And who we'll be.

    Tibby: To the pants.

    Lena: And the sisterhood.

    Carmen: And this moment, and the rest of our lives.

    CarmenLenaBridgetTibby: Together and apart.

  • Tibby: Hey, do you know who would have loved this P, Bee? Your mom.

    Bridget: Yeah. I remember this one time she decided that she'd make one herself. She always woke up starving after one of her episodes. I was just sitting in the kitchen doing my homework and she just walked in and just started making this thing. You know, I don't even know if you could call it a pizza. It was more like the entire contents of our refrigerator on a round crust.

    [They all laugh]

    Bridget: Craziest part is we actually ate it.

    Carmen: Of course you did.

    [Tibby laughs]

    Bridget: We ate every single bit of that pizza in like 10 minutes.

    Tibby: Yeah.

    Bridget: And we were laughing the whole time. It was great. I remember thinking that maybe there won't be any more bad spells. Maybe she'll just be happy like this forever.

    Carmen: It's okay to miss her, Bee. I mean, as hard as it is to be sad about it don't you think maybe it's harder not to be?

    Bridget: [Crying] You don't understand.

    Tibby: [long pause] Bridge...

    Bridget: I can't. It hurts too much.

    Carmen: I know.

    Bridget: No, you don't know. I just want to feel good and happy and alive. Because if I feel alive then it doesn't seem like she's dead. And if I'm not sad then it proves that I'm not like her.

    Carmen: Bee, you don't have to prove that to anybody. I mean, you have a strength in you that your mom never had. As much as she wanted to, she couldn't find it.

    Tibby: Yeah, and you have something else too.

    Bridget: What?

    Tibby: You have us. And we're not gonna let you go anywhere, okay?

    Bridget: Thank you.

    Carmen: Come here.
