Twilight Series (SPOILER POST just a little bit)
I love the twilight series. the story is beautiful. i hate bella. i like edward and jacob equally. i love vampires more than werewolves, though.
anyway, i need to post my opinion:
I think this story would be heartwrenchingly beautiful and I would respect Stefanie Meyers if she would kill Edward while Bella turned into a vampire, so that Bella is an immortal being without Edward. I don't care if she has Bella die after that or not--actually, i'd prefer her live forever in misery because i hate her, but for the sake of the story it's not important--I just want Edward to die at the most gut-twisting part that he could possibly die in, and that's while or exactly when Bella becomes a vampire. He could die protecting her body as it transforms or whatever.
then Bella couldn't even have Jacob because she'd be a stinky vampire and they couldn't live together, and that's what she deserves--to lose both of her true loves. (jacob would've been her choice if edward wasn't around, so he is justified in his territorial jealousy. he's just immature, but that's realistic, because he's young. Edward's old, so of course he can be charming.)

cheerio
i got up at six this morning. not because my classes start that early (they start at 9), but because i couldn't sleep. so do you know what i did?
i got some sweatpants, a teashirt (i'm aware that's not the correct spelling, but i think it's funny), and a hoodie on, and I walked up to old main hill, and I climbed the stairs a couple of times (not an easy task, but i felt better afterwords, in a weird, painful way). Then I went to a 7:30 institute class spontaneously. and it was really good--i think it's about how to be a seminary teacher, because we went through some of the acts and applied to them to our lives and then discussed how we could help other people understand and apply the principles of the doctrine, such as teenagers--i think i'm going to go to that class instead of just the regular new testament one i've been going to. anyway, about ten minutes after i sat down i realized that i probably should've just gone home and taken a shower, because i didn't take a shower before i exercised, but luckily i didn't sweat much (actually, i don't think I sweat at all, because the canyon was blowing really cold air this morning), and I was wearing a hat, so nobody could see my greasy hair, so i just went to class in sweats today, without my books. I got some paper and a pencil from the institute though, so i took good notes on the lectures and the pages we referenced.
but the point is, I felt good today.
until I got home at one. then i crashed for three hours. and now I'm blogging, making a personal note to turn on the alarm before i nap. because i do have a lot of homework this weekend that i don't want to do during the weekend. so i made a personal goal to finish everything tonight and tomorrow night. so if i'm not so active on the forum tonight, all you who care, that's why.
homework is really starting to bug me. it's weird. i've not really been like this with homework. oh well. i'm almost done anyway.
next topic...
CHEERIO
I have a mission for everyone. think of as many ways as you can say goodbye without saying the word "goodbye". for example, the word "cheerio" would do spendidly, but don't pick that word either because it is the example.
