Twilight Bashing
Yes. It's been a month since I've written anything. Yes, I am a failure at this. Thank you for noticing.

Moving on...

I'm... taking a clay class. Wheel clay. Half the time, it's fun. The other half, it's fantastically frustrating. And there's a talking scottish horse on TV. Along with a commercial for Race to Witch Mountain. I remember watching the original one when I was younger... ah, good times, good times. And, right now I'm supposed to be learning my choir music. But guess what? I really don't want to. Although I will admit that we are singing an interesting song called Blue Eye of God. Er, TWENTY-SEVEN DAYS 'TILL MY BIRTHDAY!

I'm reading Dracula right now (as I have been for the past three weeks). It's been taking a while since I only have time to read it on the weekends, and even then, my timing's questionable. But it's really quite good. It's brilliantly horrid, and all. No, really. It's amazingly good. Much better than Twilight. Speaking of which, I suppose that topic was bound to come up eventually...

I... dislike Twilight. I don't think it's very well written at all. And really, not much happens throughout the entire story. It's not horrible though. I simply think that there are better writers with better dialogues and better plots. The movie was all right. I wouldn't rent it, or anything, because it was so corny. My favorite part was probably the baseball scence, and then the part when James was getting his head ripped off. Other than that, it was pretty boring. Everyone I know thinks Robert Pattinson is cute... but honestly? Dude. It's Cedric Diggory. It's just wrong. He's not that cute. And frankly, I thought Kristen Stewart wasn't right for the role of Bella. She didn't smile like, at all. And I was just like, "You're supposed to be happy! Why aren't you happy?!". That's just my opinion, though.

Mainly, I despise what Twilight's spawned. A revolting fandom. Everywhere I look, there are vampire/werewolf romance fictions. I mean, come on. Vampires and werewolves are bloodthirsty predators. You can't get around that. But, nope. Every. Other. Bloody. Fanfiction. IS A VAMPIRE/WEREWOLF ROMANCE. Which, mythologically, is just so wrong.

Sorry.

Ah, good. Twilight bashing feelings gone.
