Random Stuff 03/04/2009
 

Ok I'm sitting here in my school library with my friend and we're reading random stuff off of facebook. And making som random stuff up.  I'm not quite sure why I'm not doing something productive, but whatever.

So I will be discussing some of the finer points in why Twilight is NOT the best series out there.

1. Stephanie Myers completely ignores the fact that traditional vampires can not be invited into the homes of the mortals.

2. Vampires do not sparkle.

3. What happens when Bella gets her period?  Does Edward freak out?

4. Edward is an abusive being.  Nay, abusive subbeing.  He's not even a gentleman.

5. I would have more if I could think right now

Ya know, even b/f I got to the fourth book I wondered about that. When Bella got her period every month did she have to avoid her Vampire family for 5-7 days?

But "good" girls don't talk about "icky" things like periods, and I don't find the absence of this surprising given that smeyer herself said that her Mormon beliefs heavily influenced her writing of the series. It's a tricky thing, and something I plan to touch on when I start my online critique of <i>New Moon</i>
