#Eclipse – The Review

Friday, July 2nd, 2010

So last night I met up with @guavalicious, who is not a serial killer by the way, in Dallas to watch Eclipse together. She’s totally lovely and just as hilarious as she is on Twitter!

If you’re thinking of going to go see it.. because maybe Kstew got some acting classes.. Don’t. It’s the same “My lip smells like shit” faces she is ALWAYS making even after she kisses her possesive sparkly vampire, which omg who doesn’t want to kiss a bushy eyebrowed vampire, right? Right. Carry on. Oh right.. Bella’s face. Expressionless except for you know that face I previously mentioned.

I don’t even remember the entire movie so I’ll just comment on the parts I remember. Which is the real proposal scene and the fight scenes. Let’s move on to the proposal scene. In this scene, Edward is telling Bella that he wants to wait until marriage to get busy between the sheets which is nice and old-fashioned you know but how long has it been for him? 100 years? Oh I think he messed around with one of the vampires from Alaska, no? Before Bella, of course. Ok so he starts talking about courting her (and ok yes, I swooned… Because dammit I want to so badly live in those times where courting was everything.. And maybe I almost cried in this scene.. Shush Kate) and maybe stealing a kiss or two but never a romp in the bedroom… Or the meadow for that matter. And Bella is not buying it because OMG she’s a horny teenage virgin. But he proposes. With a ring that Bella should go pawn and get some acting classes.. Or you know… A new face?

Oh I liked the part where Rosalie tells Bella her story. About how she didn’t have a choice to become a vampire or not. Poor girl. No wonder she’s a bitch to Bella. She has a beating heart and blood running through her veins. But Rosalie is way prettier anyway. She had her LIFE taken from her and Bella is just giving it up. To be with her sparkly lover forever and ever and ever. Which I totally get. She loves him. But she’s killing herself for a guy… *SPOILER* ok ok she doesn’t really kill herself for a guy.. She does, however, almost kill herself…. Giving birth to their baby, Renesmee… In Breaking Dawn.

Oh the Jacob part. That effin pissed me off. I mean I knew it was coming because I have read the books. And I knew she was going to kiss him. But holy hell, Bella you are such a bitch. You little whore. You are ENGAGED. This isn’t some Nicholas Sparks novel where you go run off and kiss the other guy you love and everything is fine, you know? I kind of wanted her dead right then and there. Poor Jacob. I bet he was one pissed off puppy when he found out that she was engaged with the fang guy. And Edward didn’t seem one bit furious that she kissed Jake with passion. But he kind of deserved it anyway for being a possesive asshole. I mean.. Did you see what he did with Bella’s truck because he knew she was going to the Reservation? That is a possesive and controlling trait… But what do you expect? He’s a lethal killer and stalker. The part where Jacob comments on how much hotter he is than Edward? Yeah I totally laughed. But I think I just want his abs. He has that chin I don’t like. And I still see him as a little kid.

After watching this movie, I like Jasper Hale more. He looks like more of a badass than Edward, except when Edward kills of Victoria because I LOVED that part. That was pretty nice. Bye Bye porcelain doll. Anywho I think I’ll just skip to the fight scene. The fight scene was pretty cool. I especially loved the part where the wolves come out of nowhere and attack. All the skulls and bodies cracking. Pretty neat. But then… Dun dun dun. Victoria goes looking for Edward because of course Bella is going to be with him and she wants revenge for Edward killing off her lover, James. I especially loved the part where he breaks her head off. That was like the coolest part in the movie.

Well those are the main scenes I wanted to comment on. So how many stars do I give it? THREE. Because Edward didn’t sparkle so much and made me forget about the sparkling. And I liked the fight scene. And the proposal because while it was totally cheesy I’m so jealous because I didn’t have a proposal like that.. But I think I’ve already told that story before.

So there you have it. My Eclipse review. Hope you save your pennies by not going to go watch it and spend it on Harry Potter instead :) And thanks again Kate! I loved hanging out with you! Hopefully I meet your lovely daughters one day. I see a lot more margaritas together in the future ;)

Since Everyone Is Writing One..

Sunday, November 22nd, 2009

So I figured since everyone was writing a New Moon review so would I…

twilight-new-moon

First of, let me just say that I’m not a twi-hard or twi-mom or a sparkly-vampire-lover. With that said, I wouldn’t mind if someone put a bow on top of Robert Pattinson’s head and dropped him off at my doorstep – naked for Christmas (but my husband would).

Second, Kristen you need to stop making those weird facial expressions (the ones that make you look like youre smelling something foul) and get into it more. The only parts where I saw you were into it was when you were lip-locking with Edward (and I totally dont blame you for that) but really?

Third, Edward you just need to stop sparkling because well, vampires arent supposed to sparkle, they turn to ash in the sunlight. I mean you’re hot with your pouty lips and your sharp teeth (you can bite me anytime you want) and your gorgeous eyes but.. yeah what was I saying? Oh, you need to be shirtless more often.. like Jacob (which makes me feel like a perv for staring at his sculpted abs) and now I lost my train of thought..

Oh and I like that they stuck more to the book on this one. They did way better than twilight for sure on that. And the fight scenes, Awesome. Jake transforming into the wolf was incredible! Overall I give it three sparkles because of them sticking to the story and Jacob’s abs.

Quarter-Life Crisis, Garage Sales, and Twilight FanFiction

Sunday, April 26th, 2009

So I know my Husband would hate the idea of me blogging about him or anything about him for that matter. He thinks me blogging is crazy and dumb. He asks me why I share things to the public. I have no idea why.. really. I told him that I would find it weird for someone who actually knows me in real life to read my blog and my daily ramblings. I dont know. You’d think that I would be much more comfortable for someone who actually really truly knows me to read my blog to see what the hell is going on in my head than some stranger or my online friends right? But honestly, I feel that most of my online friends get me and get the point that I’m trying to make.. So anyway.. my Husband wants a bike. He even contacted a few sellers from craigslist and seemed all giddy about it when they contacted him back right away. I hate to shatter someone’s ‘dreams and hopes’ but omg this is a motorcycle we’re talking about. Something he knows nothing about! He just figures he’d be a pro at it or something, I’m guessing. He’s never even ridden one before! He’s seriously lost his marbles! So anyway now that I said HELL NO, he’s all mopey and sighy and it’s starting to bug me. We had already talked about the bike thing a long while ago and I told him I had a few requisites before him getting a motorcycle. For one, life insurance. I don’t and couldn’t handle being a widow in my twenties. I’m not a gold digger but I just see him as selfish if he’s doing this because of a quarter-life crisis! What about his family?! Second, he’d have to take every motorcycle safety class there is! And have to wear a helmet at all times. I even told him I didnt want him on the highway. I got all psycho on him. I mean of course he pisses me off to no end at times but that doesnt stop me from being in love with him and caring about him.. He just asked me that any of my readers are welcome to donate to his motorcycle dream fund. He’s got to be kidding.

So my plans for this weekend was to clean my entire apartment from top to bottom and it didnt happen. It was one of those lazy weekends type of weekends, do you know what I mean? But overall I found some very good finds at garage sales so it wasnt a total waste of weekendess! I found a classic red radio flyer trike whom I already have a person in mind that I want to give it to.. and this little Crayola magnetic stands that has the whole alphabet in magnets and some random shapes and numbers for $4 it sort of looks like this but its not. It is super cute though even though its blue and she has nothing blue in her room .. wel playroom because she still doesnt sleep in there… even though her toddler bed is as cute as can be.. nope.. she refuses to sleep there even when I bribe her with ‘cowie’ when cowie means chocolate. I know bad bad mommy! But seriously can you blame me for trying? Do you have any other suggestions? And we put the potty training on hold at the moment since all of a sudden she went from peeing in it to no no no and running away scared!

Oh and you might want to stop reading if you’re not into the kinky fan fiction stories and stuff like that LOL. But it’s about vampires and a sparkly cvampire who goes by the name of Edward Cullen.. I thought that might totally grasp your attention.. well here’s a little excerpt of the little story I found online and the link to read the whole story.. although I dont know if the person who wrote it actually finished it. I’m going to look more into that but for the moment…

link and here’s more fan fiction from Twilight!

I haven’t been around here as much as I would like but you can thank When it spills out of my head for that since she introduced my to my latest obsession. I’m warning you ahead of time… the songs I have on there are not kid friendly. well none of them are, really LOL. The songs I put on there are the ones I also have in my computer so its like my own little playlist annnnd its super fun because you get to give ‘props’ to other members and their songs.

On another note, I started reading again. I started reading Diary of Anne Frank, in spanish (because I’ve never read it in Spanish before). I’ve already read it before countless of times but I dont get tired of that book. I’m going to try to read more often. I’ve missed reading. When I was in high school, I used to read one book a day on average. Now… well I don’t.

Yesterday, I got my pre-ordered copy of Twilight from Amazon, which was an awesome deal because I only paid $3.00 in total for the special edition dvd. I had a gift certificate for Amazon though.. that’s why it was only $3.00.But really it was free because I had $3.25 from leftover gift card balance from before

We, well I, started potty training my daughter and I thought it was going to be a smooooooooth process but so far it hasnt been. She’s pee’d in her princess potty chair a few times but no number 2. I think she might be a little scared or maybe she just needs privacy. Who would want to go number 2 when someone is hovering over them? I’m not stressing out though because she’s only going to be two in May so I have a loong time to potty train her. Talking about her, she’s been throwing these outrageous fits with some hardcore screaming and crying when I say ‘no’ to her. Life with a toddler is exhausting.

Well that’s all for now… Toodles!
