Full Moon

This post is dedicated to one of my favorite people in this world. He shall remain nameless because I choose, but we'll call him Bob :) The majority of this post will be quotes, so follow along. If you don't speak Twilight, this post may not be for you. But it will explain the recent facebook album with questionable pictures of Edward the Vampire.

It all started in started sometime in August. Me:"Bob, guess what's coming out on my birthday!!!!" Bob:"What" Me: "Twilight!!!" Bob"OK, I"ll come see it with you on your birthday."

Some time in September me: "Bob, I'm too old to go buy a Twilight movie poster, will you pick one up for me at Hot Topic" "Bob: Yeah Sure."

November: Bob (not very excited, after being forced to say it) : I'm so excited to see twilight. Me: GOOD!!!

November 21: Bob: Well, that was a pretty good movie.

November 23: Me: Bob, did you see my copy of New Moon? I can't find it!! I swear it just got up and walked off my shelf. Bob: Nope, I haven't seen it

Thanksgiving: Bob: You didn't go buy a new copy of New Moon. Me: Yes, I'm collecting all 3 sets, hard, soft, and movie cover! Bob: Um, Jen, It's right here. (Pulls it out of his bookbag, like 3 pages in to it)

A few days later: (Random Text from Bob) : You're making me question manhood.

4 Hours after text: Jacob is a LOOSER!!

A day or two after that: Jenny!! I just got you the BEST CHRISTMAS PRESENT EVER!!!

Christmas Eve: Me: Bob, where are my books? Bob: I gave them to my girlfriend. Me: What?!

Christmas day: Bob: You're going on a scavenger hunt. Your first present. (A copy of twilight) so followed the clues through out the house. Ended up upstairs......with a life size cardboard cut out of Edward the Vampire. I laughed really hard. Followed by a photo session with Kristi, Edward and Me (Of all the pictures you see, tehre are about 100 others where I can't stop laughing)

Moral of the story: This present will probably go down in the history books. And a 6 foot tall cardboard cut out of Robert Pattinson posing as a vampire in REALLY scary. So strategically placing him around the house in dark rooms to scare the living daylights out of people can make for some great laughing. But I don't think I laughed harder all break than when I heard my mom scream because she walked into her dark bedroom and Edward was there to greet her.

My Junk

I'm going to let you in on a little secret. I LOVE SPRING AWAKENING!!!!!

Even though Hunter Parrish abandoned me tonight, his Pete Wentz-look-alike (minus tatoos) replacement had a way better voice and fit the girl who played Wendla much better. And why is this Broadway show closing? And its a terrible thing I found out about $40-day-of-show tickets. And Totally Fucked just gets BETTER AND BETTER each time I see the show. And DAMN can the Ilsa girl sing!!! Merci a 90210 for putting this on my radar.





Speaking of Pete, I'm so proud of myself!!! I skipped the $10 day of CD release show in Times Square!!! Look at my trying to cut my addiction. (But note: I did see Spring Awakening instead) However, Folie a Deux does rock. I'm kind of in love with I Don't Care.

And I LOVE Kristen Stewart. She's refreshing. Cause we can't all be as annoying as Britney or Miley.

Eyes on fire

Yep, SEW is really one of the only bloggers i know, so I'll be cheating and tagging one person

So here's how the game works:
  • link to the person that tagged you (done!)
  • post the rules on your blog (um...you're reading them aren't you)
  • write 6 random things about yourself (done...and harder than I expected)
  • tag 6 people at the end of your post (done)
  • let the blogger know that he/she has been tagged (done)
  • let the tagger know when your entry it up (done, after I publish this)
  1. Major concert-a-holic. Living in New York City doesn't help at all. So since October 2, I've seen Matt Nathanson, Weezer, Hanson, Coldplay, Panic at the Disco, Dashboard Confessional, The Academy Is...., Carolina Liar, We the Kings, The Spill Canvas, and Augustana (on the FLY and totally unplanned)!!! they were pretty high......but they were great per usual). I'm going to see Oasis and Ryan Adams in two weeks. Please do not even begin to calculate how much that cost in your head. I'm only living in NYC for so LONG!!
  2. I hate driving. I love the subway. I wrecked a go cart in 3rd grade and it pretty much did me in. So when my grandma asked me to drive her to WalMart this weekend, my heart stopped, my palms got sweaty, and I attacked Houston roads.....and then had a little trouble breathing for a few hours.......but all for my Grandma
  3. I have seen every single cousin of mine on both sides....and even those kinda cousins....since the end of October. Impressive since we all live in 5 different states.
  4. Pretty much since sixth grade, I've had one obsessive focus or another. I'm aware it's stupid and childish, but man, Hanson, Roswell, KSU Sports and Twilight (we can probibly tack going to concerts into this list) have given me some good times. Even if people get tired of me talking about it, I'm content :)
  5. I absolutly hate talking on the phone. Making phone calls I don't want to make give me the same panicked feeling as #2....hating to drive. So if I call you on the phone, you're pretty special :)
  6. I went 10 years without owning a dress. From the time i was 13 until I was 24, I didn't own one.
Now for the tagging. Hopefully you'll all join in the fun! Lindsey and Elizabeth. SEW, you tagged the rest of the people I know.

Never think

well. it's that time. JP's official twilight review. in short. i saw it again today. what does this mean? it was fan-flippin-tastic. done. finished. i loved it. here's a mini rundown of what i can think of:

they said none of the four quotes i listed a few posts ago. They alluded to the heroine line. but, could have done a way better job.

the meadow scene. seriously?!?! couldn't you have done a better job? now i did hear catherine had the perfect place, but then it was covered in ice when they went to shoot the scene. so let's just hope thats the case. but that was a bit of a downer, since the whole series exists b/c of the meadow scene that stephanie drempt of.

loved kristen stewarts voice overs. and the fact she went into the "of three things i was positive" sphele. AND her entrance into the bio classroom. that was SSSOOO cheesy it was great. and i love how she's handling the media. give her a break. kind of refreshing to know that not everyone is miley cyrus or the high school musical girls.

the cullens walking into the cafeteria. enough said. i think angela may be my favorite normal human. However, Bella's dad was GREAT!!!! He may have had some of the best lines in the movie.

jasper. rocked. "that kid that always looks like he's in pain, that's jasper." loved it.

the baseball scene was better than i had anticipated.

and. i wrote about how Summit took their marketing online and social networking pretty seriously. it was great. then on Saturday morning, this popped into my email inbox. and, granted, it's a mass mailing. but the fact that someone took time to do this and sent it out was great.

And since Twilight rocked the box office ($70 mil....that's a harry potter type opening), we now get new moon (!!) which, btw, is my least favorite book. however, i think, if like i saw some of the actors in an interview saying, if they got johnny deppe to be one of the Vulturis, it would be AMAZING. he's a total vulturi. and, i think the concept of the vulturis is pretty stupid. That being said, super excited to see the cliff diving scene and bella crashing motorcycles to hear edwards voice in her head. well, we'll just have to wait a year or two, wont we.

and now that twilight is out, what on earth am i going to blog about?!?!

and if you read my blog, and came to my birthday party this weekend, thanks. you rock! i had fun and hope you did too!!

Decode

So as I anxiously await my favorite "candy" book's movie to come out in 2 day (in fact, i'll probably be in my movie seat RIGHT NOW in 2 days!!) i'm going to share with you my favorite quotes from the movie (cause lets face it, my signed, beer stained, ripped up copy is memorized......).

"Stupid, shiny Volvo owner." (I will probably hit my seat mate in overjoyed excitement if this actually gets said........)

“Did you stab Edward Cullen with a pencil or something?”

"Maybe thats not the right comparison. Maybe it would be too easy to turn down the brandy. Perhaps I should have made our alcoholic a heroin addict instead." "So what you're saying is, I'm your bran of heroin?" "Yes, you are exactly my brand of heroin."

"Bella ,I'm not about to let you behind the wheel of a vehicle when you can't even walk straight. Besides, friends don't let friends drive drunk,"
"Drunk?"
"You're intoxicated by my very presence."


"And where do you fit into that scheme?"
"With the vampires of course."

OK, while we're on the twilight run, I got the most awesome shirt ever. I had it made!! It'll be revealed Friday. Now, if you don't speak Twilight, it's stupid. But if you do, IT'S amazing!!!

I'm off to see the long-awaited The Academy Is.....tomorrow night!! And Snow Patrol just announced a show!!! Which may mean I'm skipping Augustana next Wednesday. You have a twilight quote? Please share. I'll report back to you how many actually made it into the movie.
