We are looking for our own vampire?




Haven't been writing for a while. All thanks to work and a new addiction; The Twilight saga. I bought the book about 2 weeks ago and I finished reading it in 4 days (in between of work, friends and W). I didn't think that I wouldn't be able to stop reading, but whenever I came to work I just waited for the day to end so I could go home and read my book. Edward is the name of the main character. He is described as handsome and perfect in all ways there is except for one thing; he lives during nights and he is dangerous..... It is the only thing that I have comed across that can be described as the life of a young woman. We are all looking for excitement in our lives and we find ourselves very attracted to the forbidden, whether it is a guy or something else. We seek adventure and the thrill that we get from experiencing that adventure.

While reading this book, I went back to my teens again, I remember the feeling of being young and how it felt when I had a thing for the forbidden. It was fun, it was sexy, and most of all, it gave me the thrill of being somewhere where I shouldn't.

Bella is the other main character of the book. She is clumsy and is somehow a magnet of dangerous things. She sees Edward as her prince charming and it is an absolute love adventure that this book is about. We are all seeking our prince charming and we want someone who is kind and sexy, yet has something very mysterious and dangerous about them. Could we then draw the conclusion that we are all seeking our own vampire? Someone who has the perfect look, who is very dangerous but are still our prince charming?

After reading the book the movie had its premiere here in oz. I knew that I just had to see it. Only because I wanted to see him, the wonderful vampire. I have to say, that even though some of the people in the movie weren't the best actors, this was still such a wonderful movie that I would recommend it to anyone. One condition though; you have to had read the book first. If you don't do that, you will ever understand some of the expressions in the movie.

I have now read the second book and my addiction is growing stronger. I don't want this saga to end, but I still have 2 more books to go. Then I will have to look for a replacement addiction. You might think that I am such an idiot for feeling this way about a book, but read it and then post your comments. meanwhile, I am just going to enjoy the feeling that I get from reading about this vampire who makes me feel like a teenager again..

Sunburn

Finally some time off from work again since I got back to Australia.. Came back on Saturday 22nd of November and I have been working since then :( (sort off). Have had 2 days off since then. So yesterday I went to the pool to try to get a tan.. Because I am having a hard time to get tanned legs I brought reef oil and sun cream with me.. But stupid as I am sometimes, I didn't just put the oil on my legs, no I put it on my arms without thinking about it.. So now I have this beautiful red colour (makes me look like a lobster) on my arms and it stings like hell. I have put wet towels on my arms and some aloe vera (I've heard that it helps against burns) but nothing helps. Woke up 7:30 this morning because of it.. And to make matters worse, I saw an advertising on tv yesterday about skin cancer where they said that the colour on your arms that you get from being in the sun is actually dead cells in your arms that are growing in to the veins and travels around the body until it becomes skin marks.. Those skin marks are the dangerous ones that very much often becomes skin cancer... hmmmmmm.. Very funny.. Talk about karma.. I wanted a tan but got a sign about skin cancer, after I got burned!!!!!!! I want to be tanned, but after this there will be no more reef oil for me.. I will only use the sun cream.. Ok, lets be realistic, the people who knows me will know that I will continue to use the reef oil (yes, I'm an idiot), but only on my legs.. And I will apply it after I have been so good and applied sun cream on the rest of my body..

But I wanted to go to the pool today, guess that's out of the question.. So what does a girl do when she doesn't have anything else to do? I think I will go to the bookstore and buy myself a good book and lock myself inside.... Life is great sometimes....
