Twilight Midnight release party!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i was crazy. i went to a midnight twilight release party. yep, call me a nut if you wish. my mom wouldnt take my friend and i so i convinced my dad to take us. when we got there at 10 the place was nearly vacant. my friend had to get a watch for her dad and went then to pay for it. we then went back to the electronics section to start waiting in line only to find there is no real line. just little groups. we asked a girl that looked familiar where the movie would be being released and she said that they didnt know. well, the ended up releasing them around the dressing room section, right by twilight merchandise! so, i got a team edward shirt, pins, and key chains( thanks to my dad wallet!). then, we formed a heard in front of a twilight table. they then brought out these handout things. we grabbed them, i ended up grabbing them for my friends as well since i could push through people to reach the table. that girl that looked familiar went to out school and was a grade behind us. so we talked to her. they had cake and punch, but i wasnt feeling to well. my friend had the cake and said the icing was way to sweet. yuck! i hate icing thats too sweet. anywho, we waited and waited, getting more anxious as time passed. it was about 10 minutes till midnight and these girl from our grade came to our part of the herd and we started talking to them. we were all squeeling about how close it was. at 11:59 we were all too excited to wait the last minute. at 12 we screamed its midnight! they started passing out the dvds and as is expected at a releaseparty people started shoving. they then yelled no shoving please! thank you! they started passing back some. 2 girls in front of me took 2 copies and i grabbed for the other. they didnt seem to mind since they had their copies. they were going to pass it back anyway. after this i shoved my way out. my friends still trying to get copies. when i got out i tried to find that i had to go down a different hallway to get to the check out. my friend came out looking sad saying she got a 1 disc. she said they only ordered 10 2 disc copies and was mad that i got one of the 2 disc ones and she didnt. i am planning on having a viewing party with some friends, ill let her watch all the special features! we then found my dad who had magically re-appeared and rushed to a checkout. it was 12:15 and we were checked out. it was late when we got home. you dont think i went to bed do you?? i was hoping not. guess what i did. watched twilight!!!!! and i am watching it again soon. well, ill post again soon. leave comments about your twilight movie experience. how did you get it? let me know! laterz

Sick and Tired of my classmates!!

ok, so at my school some kids really get worked up over the Twilight stuff. especially the kids in my homeroom! today, around dismissal they wrote Twilight is super gay! on the board. i erased it but they wrote it back on the board when i had to leave to catch my bus. i am really tired of this nonsense. i really dont enjoy the kids in my class trashing twilight. they dont like the idea of vegetarian vampires. they say vampires drink blood, they cant be vegetarians. when i try to explain it to them they yell twilight is stupid and then run away. i really dont like them. i do have a group of twilighter friends but we are overpowered. :( on a lighter note i made a new banner. i am re reading twilight for only the 3rd time and i came across a picture and a good quote. bella says to Edward "Vampires like baseball?" to which Edward replies "Its the American pastime." i find these quotes awesome so i incorporated them with a twilight baseball picture and presto! new banner! btw, i am getting the twilight dvd early saturday morning at my local walmart. i asked if i could reserve a copy and they wouldnt let me. meanos!!!!! keep checking, im posting more often. laterz!

Yay or Nay and TLA!

Hello to whoever is still reading this blog. Thanks to those who are! anywho, lotz of kids at my school say Twilight is stupid! i know! they're nuts!! hence the title yay or nay. i wrote this long article on why people might love or hate twilight. wether u luv it or hate it, plz take time to read this article. at the end there are details on something new for this blog. here it goes.

Twilight is a modern fantasy. Nothing gory, nothing violent. When people hear vampires, they think of gory, bloody fights and biting heads off and blood sucking. Thats what i thought. Nobody had ever even heard of vegetarian vampires until Twilight came around. The idea of vampires living off of animal blood gets some people mad. Maybe for the fact of change. The way people have seen vampires, to them vegetarian vampires is a stupid idea. Some look at vampires such as Vlad the Impaler and think the idea of vegetarian vampires is ridiculous. Reading the books myself, i thought of the idea as a little silly. Vegetarian vampires was a totally new idea. While reading, i found that the idea was very interesting. Its not that they dont want the human blood but that they choose NOT to drink the human blood. The cravings that these vampires have for human blood adds some drama to the story in Edward and Bella's relationship.
Its a romance, as most everybody knows. Bella's scent is very alluring to Edward, as also most people know. It seems that people forget this detail. Most haters look over this little detail. This little, tiny detail helps to make the story. Its this detail that creates the conflict and makes the story what it is. The story shows the conflict of vampires and humans in a new way. Everybody knows that humans and vampires dont mix from what we see in movies or hear about. The movies are gory and bloody and sometimes violent. They kill people. That is common knowledge of vampires. Vampires kill people and suck their blood. Not in this tale. People say that because of this Twilight is dumb. Really, if if you think about it, its clever. A clever, new idea. The idea of living off of animal blood. People dont see the ingenius here. Vampires need to live off of blood, but it was never specified that it HAD to be human blood. Just blood in general. The vegetarian vampires play a big role in the story. If he wasnt a vegetarian vampire, him and Bella's romance wouldn't have turned out the way it did. A real vampire would've lured Bella in for her scent and flattered her. Then would've sucked her blood. Edward almost did this but he didn't want to expose his family. awwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!!!!!!!!!!
The vampires in this story are heroes in a way. Being able to resist human blood is a great feat and hard to do. To resist what they condsider delectable food. That is like you or I resisting our favorite meal. Bravo for the Cullens!!!
Lets talk about werewolves for a second. When someone says werewolf, i used to think half-man, half-wolf who howls at the moon and comes out at night. Do you think the same? Most likely you do. In this book, werewolves help people. Jacob ends up becoming a werewolf. He doesnt howl at the moon and go nuts, him and his pack help to protect humans, Bella in particular. We dont see werewolves as helping people. We see them like we see vampires, KILLERS! We see werewolves as monsters who come out at night to howl at the moon and hunt. In Meyers Twilight Saga its different as many know. Werewolves arnt a big issue but i thought as though they should be mentioned.
Now, back to vampires. People love complaining about the Cullens ant hteir vegetarian vampirism. THe only thing about that is that they are not the only vampires mentioned in the Twilight books. The ones i will bring up out of the many mentioned are the Nomads who are James, Laurent, and Victoria. James is probably what most anti-twilighters would say is a real vampire. He longs for Bella's blood. James is a tracker. He tracks people just so he can suck their blood. Blood is a delicacy and a NEED for ANY VAMPIRE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
For people who havnt read Twilight, give it a try. This vegetarian vampire idea just might surprise you. For those who have read Twilight, spread the news!

Thanks for reading that LONG post. I am starting a TLA which stands for Twilight lovers of America. Interested?? more details to come! i gotta go cuz my hands are tired. cya! i will try to post more frequently.
