Skins (UK) = My life!
UK.
...summed up into one show (specificaly Effy's story line).
Note: I've never even once seen the US' MTV version of Skins and I don't plan on watching it either. It's too edited and isn't real AT ALL whereas the original version (the UK's version) is much more raw and uncensored so I suggest that you watch the UK's version and leave the US' version in the dust.
UK. Generation 1:
Tony (male): I had everything I wanted, I lost it all. Going to get it all back, piece by piece.Cassie (male): You know what hurts the most about a broken heart? Not being able to remember how you felt before.
Jal (female): Yeah, let’s do that! Let’s build something, and we’ll tear it down.
Chris (male): It’s kind of easy when you’ve got nothing, because nothing can be taken away from you. I don’t want nothing anymore.
Sid (male): Why did you go away? No, I needed you and you pissed off. I love you, I’m so sorry.
Maxxie (male): Don’t you care what I want? Don’t I get to decide? I can do this dad.
Anwar (male): I’m a muslim boy, I don’t get to choose.
Michelle (female): Tell me like you’d die for me. Like nothing else matters. Like your world stops turning because of me. Like you mean it, you little shit.
Generation 2:
Effy's rebel ways and roller coaster mindset + Cook's reckless mindset = story of my life...
Effy (female): Anger, jealousy, bitterness, tiredness, hope, lust, love. It’s conceptual, you just can’t see it.Effy's rebel ways and roller coaster mindset + Cook's reckless mindset = story of my life...
Cook (male): Nothing good ever stays with me, absolutely nothing.
Thomas (male): I fell in love with this girl. She was good, she was honest. Now she’s gone and this new one, I don’t like her. She makes my heart hurt.
Pandora (female): Just cause I’m useless don’t mean I’m nothing. But you don’t make enough effort Eff. I’m just there to laugh at.
Freddie (male): Nothing bad is gonna happen, I’m gonna take care of you now, I promise. I can’t let this happen again. I’m not gonna let this happen again.
Naomi (female): When I’m with you, I feel like I’m a better person. I feel happier, less alone.
JJ (male): Just care, okay? About me you twats, you’re all fucking twats!
Emily Fitch twin 2 (female): I could be dead in a second. Everything’s so… fragile. Didn’t you realise that?
Katie Fitch twin 1(female): It’s all about you. I didn’t want to let you down. I’m not gonna be you. I just want a mom who loves me, no matter what.
Generation 3:
Franky (female): I’m nothing. I’m a no good shit magnet/ I just wanna like… just be. / I’m into… people.Rich (male): This is me. This is who I am/ Maybe stories are just stories. Or maybe we can make our life a story.
Mini (female): I’ve been a complete bitch. And I’m really sorry, we could all be awesome mates. I want that now.
Liv (female): We were so much better than all those nice boys and girls. As if we knew a secret they didn’t, but, we don’t tell each other our secrets. / I owe you so much.
Nick (male): I fell but these guys caught me. It’s what mates do, we have a go. Whatever comes, we have a good go at it, cause it’s all we can do.
Alo (male): When did it all get so fucking hard? / I’m really gonna try to be better, you make me feel so fucking useless. But I’m gonna do it, I’m gonna grow up.
Grace (female): No one’s got a fucking clue of who I am or what I can do. / It’s the only thing I believe in, because it’s the only thing I’ve got left to count on.
Matty (male): So why do I see a glorious fucking headfuck thing? / Here we are, it’s not random. / I’m ust as fucked in the head as you are.
