twilight

10:35 PM
don't judge me - i finished reading (more like scanning) the 4 books in the twilight series. didn't buy the book; i downloaded free pdfs online. HAH. i rock. i personify the cheap indian.


so there's lots of criticism about the book. it's written for tweens/teens and the english is too simple. edward is amazing, gorgeous, beautiful, statuesque, polished, strong, muscular, well spoken, intelligent, speaks 2462754 languages, cooks, cleans, drives and refuses to touch bella or have sex with her (and when he finally does, he chews of the headboard and she can't get enough of him hahah) etc and has become the benchmark for young, impressionable girls. so now an entire generation of teenagers who are going to look for a boyfriend like edward cullen are going to be sorely disappointed. i feel bad for them. this just adds on to the idealism that kids get from fairy tales about finding prince charming. there is no such thing as prince charming! he is a myth!

but you know what's worse? now all these girls will think it's okay to act like bella. she legitimises over dependency, constant emotional breakdowns, sexual urges, a penchant for self-pity and a unnecessary temper. UGH. god, i'm worried about turning into this spineless, whiny ball of goo.


it would seem that all H needs is a pair of amber contact lenses, a sports car, the ability to bribe an ivy league university for my post graduate education, a cottage on a private island, a mansion (that's it) and i'm floored.
