Oh no...

Okay, so I promise I'm not some crazy fangirl who would love anything with the word 'Twilight' at me.

Keep that in mind as I say I'm going to talk about the movie.

The movie was okay. Kinda. It progessively got better...Let me sum it up...

Bella: Preeettty!
Edward:Gr.
Bella:I love you
Edward: Darn. I love you to.
James: YOU SMELL GOOOOOOOOOD!
Edward: AH RUN!
Bella: Okay
James:I GOT YOU KNOW!
Edward: You dead.
Bella:YAY!
-the end-

The movie did the book no justice what so ever, seriously! You didn't get to know any of the characters at all, if you hadn't read the book you wouldn't have cared about anyone!

And then the acting...Well that made me laugh out loud a lot. I can't describe it but...Well I loved the book, but the movie...Parts of it were so cheesey I had to laugh.

Now, I did try and keep in mind that it was a low budget movie...

But if you got to laugh...Then you got to laugh.

And laugh I did.

I can kinda understand why though, it was a giant book to fit into a 2 hour movie, and a lot happened...

But the other books are longer, so how do they intend to do those books?

I have a feeling more pain and laughter will be coming for me.

Dumb Labels

Well, time for some fun with...

STUPID LABELS!

Hey! It's reading!

Anyways I'll take one of my favorite examples..."This costume does not enable you to fly" That was on a superman costume. Now let's just think about this for a minute, do you know anyone dumb enough to do this:

Person: Look superman costume! I should for sure put that on, then climb up somewhere really high and try and jump off to see how great I am at flying!

You know you can think of someone like that.

Now you might be saying that the warning is for small children but honestly, what little kid is going to stop to read the warning label? NONE!

Now you can just google these things, it's a good waste of time. Then you can imagine all the funny comments I would make.

Okay so....I haven't been keeping up with the blog but now I will start again!

...Don't hold me to that.

I'm doing a comic strip today-IT INVOLVES READING!

Stone Soup from November 19,2008 if you want to know the author look at the star tribune.

Okay so the main idea of this is that the older sister is watching her younger sister and then her younger sister starts choking.

She starts freaking out and that's where the comic ends for the day.

I've decided the only person I can choke around is my mom because she will be the only one who will be able to save me.

Here's why my friends won't work...
Me:-chewing on something- I like COOUUUUUUUGH
Friends:AAHAHAHAHAHA!
Me:-Cough/Hack/Cough-
Friends:SARAH'S CHOKING! AHAHAHA! Let's all laugh at her!
Me:-Choking some more-
Friends: AHAH-Oooh shiny! -Run away-

Why I can't choke with my sister....

Me: -Starts choking-
Sister:OHMYGOD?! Are you choking?!
Me:-Chokes-
Sister: Well....You aren't making the universal choking sign, so...
Me:-Nearly out of air-
Sister: If you're choking you know what the sign is right?
Me:-Dead-

And my brother...

Me: -Chokes-
Brother:-Evil Grin- You're choking?! GREAT! I need to practice this skill anyways!
Me: -Attempts to scream no but can't due to choking-
Brother: No one ever comes in the ER because of choking!
Me: -Runs-

Dad....

Me: -Choking in process-
Dad: AH! I don't remember what to do!
Me:-Continues to choke-
Dad: HELP!
Me:-Choking-
Dad: Crap...I forgot. Ho hum, what's going on in your life?


You get the idea.

So only choking in front of my mom....I have hopes she may not kill me.

The list would go like this for people I want to choke in front of...

1.Doctor
2.Nurse
3. Trained Health teacher
4. Mom
5. Brother
6. Sister

There are a few variables but for the most part that covers it.

Oops

So I couldn't exactly get this to work on my computer on Wednesday. (Excuses I know xD)

And I can't find my blog that I typed up so here's a new one...

The Secret Circle by the same guy who wrote the Vampire Dairies.

I don't really like this book but I got sucked in so now I have no choice but to finish it.

The main character pretty much cries and whines and does nothing other then what I just said. She annoys me beyond all belief because she makes a big drama about everything.

There's a simple solution to her stupid problem. But nooo she needs to be extremely dramatic about it and end up killing people because she can't 'break her friend's heart'

But you know the friend will find out anyways and then will also find out about all the other terrible stuff the main character did so it'll be ten times worse.

Gasp. Drama.

Speaking of her friend...

She might just annoy me even more because she's so perfect. Here's basically a description of her.

Her hair is shiny and long and beautiful and straight and perfect and you all wish you had her blonde hair. Yes, even if you're a guy. Did I mention her hair shines? Well it does. Especially if there's any light around, people have gone blind because it's so shiny. I'm surprised the whole town isn't blinded by it. Oh and also she has everyone wanting to be friends with her/date her/stalk her/use her to be popular. But no worries because she's nice to them all, even the stalkers. Which is odd because she's suppose to have a boyfriend who she loves forever and ever but she'll go out on a date with any guy who asks(as long as they don't beg).

I'm still trying to figure it out myself.

This is not even the main character. Just the main characters big sister figure.

Here is the main character...

"I can do it!"

-3 seconds later-
"What was I thinking?! I can never be amazing or cool or pretty or have shiny hair or stand up to someone or do something other then get scared and oogle my best friend's boyfriend!"

She's been like this for Book 1 and Book 2.

I don't have much hope for her in Book 3 and 4, but like I said I've been sucked in and will be forced(yes, forced) to finish the series.

I'm sure I'll have fun rambling about the next two books...
