Saddle Up Spider Monkey!!

So over the holidays there are a lot of things that happened, which I will try to blog about, but one thing I never foresaw happening was my trip to the theatre to watch the movie Twilight. I swore that I would never do so. Its those movies that girls read and then they expect to be just like Mr. Edward! He is a fictional character or everyone’s imagination. But with some peer pressure from Whitney and Brittney I decided that I would go, you know for the experience! So that after, when I would say that I hated it, it would have a lot more validity!

Days before I was told by Whitney that she was going to wear her I Love Edward shirt... And I believed her, for this was the 5th time she had seen it! I wouldn’t have been surprised if I walked into her room and she had an Edward shrine, with a statue, lit candles and a kneeling bench for worshiping! So I was thinking that I needed to make a point in going! I was going with 2 Twilight fanatics! So I did the only thing that any normal person would do... I made a anti-Twilight tee shirt! I was excited to show them the shirt! But the sweetness quickly diminished when they told me they really did not have Edward shirts.... Now I felt like I idiot! I was the only one wearing a Twilight tee! So I made them make one with me as well! It was great! I helped them make their Twilight tees just so I could wear my shirt in protest to the film.


When I went to the movie I soon found myself with all kinds of emotions, one of them was enjoyment! "WTF!!" I thought to myself as I started to realize I was enjoying the movie. Maybe it was enjoyable cause it was so gay!! :-( I wish that was the case, Maybe it was just being with great company.... As cool as they were, it wasn’t that! Then it hit me and I became depressed! I kind of liked the movie! I couldn’t admit that to anyone! That was like one step above coming out of the closet! So I kept my mouth shut! But then it hit me! I never read the book, it wasn’t the book itself that I hated, it was the effect that it had on society! So I came to the conclusion that... egh the movie isn’t that bad! It had a lot of potential.... But I still hate the Twilight fanatics, who dedicate themselves to prove their commitment by wearing shirts, bashing the anti-twilighties and dreaming of a day they find their Edward! I had a bet going on this movie that I had to give up my 24 shirt if I liked it, and in return if I hated it I would get her Twilight shirt, but since she lied to me and didn’t have a shirt, I think my 24 shirt is safe with me!

Moral of the story! Ladies and metro-sexual guys... The movie isn’t bad! But please don’t base your life upon it! If we can all find a middle ground on this I think together we can all enjoy the Twilight series'!!
