Yes. I am now officially obsessed with Twilight. I tried to avoid it really. But I saw the movie and then started reading the books and BAM it was too late. The books are so good. I read the first one in less than a week even though I knew what was going to happen because I saw the movie.
I think it appeals to women/girls because every woman is looking for an "Edward". I mean minus the whole vampire thing of course. Even though as you're reading, you find yourself going "C'mon really? No man would ever say these things to you". But that's the beauty of a fantasy right? A girl can dream. And it doesn't hurt that the image of "Edward" in my head is Robert Pattinson. (Since I saw the movie first and then read the books) He's very attractive except for the crazy hair. It's funny how I have seen and read that all these girls/women go crazy for his hair. I personally think it looks like an out of control case of bedhead. Maybe that's the point. wink wink. Regardless, I like a man that has his hair under control, like it is in the movie. I don't know why I'm rambling on about hair, so let me get to the point - Im easily distracted as you know. My point is that you should read the books and watch the movie because I didn't think I would like it and now look at me. I'm another one of those "twilighters" or whatever the kids are calling it these days.
And can I just say that this whole Twitter thing is out of control and I'm tired of hearing about it and talking about it.
One of my other favorite things right now is the new Kelly Clarkson CD. It is wonderful and you should buy it. I think a lot of these songs couldn't have come at a more perfect time for me. They really expresss some of the same things that I am going through right now. So I will leave you with "Already Gone"...
Remember all the things we wanted
Now all our memories, they're haunted
We were always meant to say goodbye
Even with our fists held high
It never would have worked out right, yeah
We were never meant for do or die...
I didn't want us to burn out
I didn't come here to hurt you now I can't stop...
I want you to know
It doesn't matter where we take this road
Someone's gotta go
And I want you to know
You couldn't have loved me better
But I want you to move on
So I'm already gone
Looking at you makes it harder
But I know that you'll find another
That doesn't always make you wanna cry
It started with the perfect kiss then
We could feel the poison set in
"Perfect" couldn't keep this love alive
You know that I love you so
I love you enough to let you go
I want you to know
It doesn't matter where we take this road
Someone's gotta go
And I want you to know
You couldn't have loved me better
But I want you to move on
So I'm already gone
I'm already gone, already gone
You can't make it feel right
When you know that it's wrong
I'm already gone, already gone
There's no moving on
So I'm already gone
