Ok, so BPE has been a little slow because I've been all over NJ and NY... So, when I get back to New York(permanently) it'll be quicker w/ news.
I saw Stephenie Meyer on August 1st and after waiting in line for four hours, I have to say, it was worth it! I loved it! My mom, dad, uncle, Dana, and I went. Immediately after that, we were forced to drive to NJ to visit w/ family for a few weeks.
I loved Breaking Dawn. I thought it was a good way to end the series. I'm so sick of the critisism Stephenie is getting. It's HER series, if you think you can do better I'll believe you when you publish a book that gets more fame than Twilight overnight.
So, other than that, I have an interesting video that I'd like to share. My mom's favorite song is Teenagers by My Chemical Romance, so last night she demanded that I put it on. When it started, my Aunt and my brother started dancing... He demanded that I make him a youtube account and I post it. They're nuts and I love how my dog is just laying in the background unnaffected and my little cousin is wandering around looking at them like they're nuts AND my mother is trying to figure out what the song means...
Here it is:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nnOOCb1tPmg

There has always been a huge debate- Team Edward or Team Jacob? I, obviously, am Team Edward, and I love Edward more than any fictional character in existence! People say that Edward has no personality, he's overprotective, controlling, weak, and too old fashioned. HE'S NOT! Edward is an intelligent person who is in love for THE FIRST TIME! He has a sense of humor, though it is on the dry, sarcastic side, it's there. He's overprotective of Bella because she is the love of his existence and she is so fragile to him so he overeacts! His heart is in the right place, he wants her to be safe more than anything. He isn't controlling. In the beginning of Eclipse he overreacts, but he eventually accepts that Bella will be safe with Jake. He's not weak, he fights for Bella, but above everything he wants her to be happy! If she chose Jacob, he would be devastated, but he would never let her see that! He's old fashioned! HE WAS BORN IN 1901! WHAT THE F*CK DO YOU EXPECT?!
There are also people who think that Bella was wrong for forgiving him in New Moon, she is a forgiving person! She loves Edward and she understood why he left her! She didn't like it, but she eventually understood!  And the people who think it was stupid that he tried to kill himself, HAVE YOU EVER HEARD OF ROMEO AND JULIET?
 Personally, if Edward was real and he did that to me, I might not forgive him as soon, but this IS BELLA and EDWARD we're talking about. I probably wouldn't put up with much of the stuff Edward does, and I wouldn't put up with Jake AT ALL, but , compared to Bella I'm a bitch.  Ask everyone I know, the worst thing to do is to tell me what to do or to shelter me(Bless my mother, I was a nightmare from the time I was twelve to fifteen!)
I get why people like Jacob, he's not my favorite character, but I get that he has a good personality(sometimes!). I've always thought it was odd that I'm Team Edward, I usually root for the underdog(no pun intended) Some examples are:
-Ron in Harry Potter
-Ginny in Harry Potter
-Spinelli on General Hospital
-Mouth on One Tree Hill
-and even more...
Edward is just the best! Bella and Edward FOREVER!

Now, I have stacks of Job applications to fill out!

I haven't blogged in a while, but I just moved from LA to NYC. I love New York! I've lived in NJ, NYC, and LA. I'm back in New York and I'm thrilled! I am living in my family's New York apartment, it's miniscule for a family of 5 or sometimes more(I have a huge extended family who will sometimes stay with us and we also have three dogs), but more than enough room for a college student! Right now, my family is here for summer until they travel down to south Jersey to visit family(why can't my family live in one place? We're an odd bunch and that's the nicest thing I can say!) and I'll have the place to myself until the end of the summer and then from the beginning of September to Christmas Vacation...
So, Stephenie Meyer announcd that she'll be in Times Square on August 1st! I'm planning on going, but after the event I may have to drive down to South NJ(my mom's birthday is August 3rd).... I'm really excited! I LOVE Blue October so I'm thrilled Justin Furstenfeld will be there and of course, I can't wait to see Stephenie!
In other news, my mother may become a TwilightMOM! The reason this is odd is because she doesn't like things like vampires or fantasy, but she wants to read it so she knows what the hell I keep talking about! She's not too far in, and she isn't too sure about it. I hope she enjoys it, then I can make fun of her for bashing it like she did when I first got into it! I showed my dad the scene from MTV and he looked as though he thought it was cool. That's also hysterical, because he told me once that "Twilight sounds like High School Musical for emo people."
Even my nine year old brother and sister want to see the movie(David because he saw the fight scene and in his words "That was so cool! Vampire people are awesome!" and my sister because she thinks Rob is cute, yes my nine year old sister is boy crazy)

All for now,

Sam

Ok, so I haven't posted in a while but I am moving to New York this week! I am extremely excited. I'm originally from New Jersey(Kearny, to be exact) and I lived in NYC from the time I was eight to when I was eleven, then the family moved to LA. Of New Jersey, New York, and Los Angeles, New York is my favorite(MY family is in NJ and NY visiting family at least three times a year...). I also can't wait to start at NYU. I am going to be living in my family's small apartment, because nobody else is there and I will be able to live with my dogs.
Now, on topic! I love the teaser trailer! Everybody is complaining about how the movie looks dark and dreary... What the hell do you expect? THEY LIVE IN ONE OF THE RANIEST PLACES IN THE US! AND, the movie isn't going to be brightly lit! It's not a bright and bubbly story, it isn't completely dark but it has dark aspects to the story. The dark lighting is also Catherine Hardwicke's style! Next, Edward IS NOT flying! He's jumping... And I know a few people are complaining that we are going to see Edward hunt a deer. IT LOOKS F*CKING AWESOME!(excuse my language) The movie looks pretty damn good and that is about all we can get from a teaser trailer.
Next, The Host was great(I finished it in two days, one of those days I had finals... so I am very proud of myself that I didn't neglect my studies, but I still finished the book). Personally, the only science fiction stuff I like is Isaac Asimov and Alien(one of the best sci-fi movies ever made). I'm not a huge sci-fi fan, but my father is(he refuses to read The Host though)... My favorite characters are Wanderer and Ian. I liked Mel, but not as much as Wanderer.  I'm not going to go into much detail I don't want to give away spoilers... But, I LOVED The Host(though nobody can beat Edward and Bella in my opinion)

Sam
P.S. I probably won't blog or vlog til next Monday, when I should be settled in my apartment(yes, MY, my parents are making me pay rent... they don't trust me lol)

Okay, I can't post on BellaPlusEdward, and I have absolutely NO idea why... I will post all important news on Where Vampires Reside(in the announcement section). I'm going to call the service I use tomorrow to sort this new problem out, and I'll be on the phone with them for three hours...
Ugh! It's almost midnight and I can't get any sleep, and I have things to do tomorrow!
My to-do list:
1) Go food shopping with my mother at 8am, because I'm an awesome daughter(yeah, right lol)
2) Class 10am to 12pm
3) Go to the gym with my mother(I'm moving out to NYC this summer and she wants to spend time with her baby, even though she has two nine year olds to deal with, I'm her oldest) 1pm
4) Call the wonderful hosting service, any time
5) Work- 4pm-9pm
6) Take care of two inconsiderate Chihuahuas(lol)... 24/7


See this is a busy day for me... and on top of it I can't sleep at all, because a certain duo of chihuahuas have been freaking out, and not letting me sleep. Then as soon as they sleep I can't sleep... This makes me laugh, I sound like a mother of a baby the way I talk about my dogs...

To top it off, I had to deal with a very annoying customer at work.
I work at a small book shop, not like Borders or Barnes and Noble(even though I shop at these stores frequently). The place I work has a cafe on the other side of the shop, and we sell a small selection of books... So a woman comes in and she was looking for some books for her neice(or something) and she asks me what books a young teen girl would like, so I show her to the area where books like Twilight and other teen books are, she says to me "I really want something shorter and something that might be on the curriculum for high school." okay, so I grab some Shakespear, Edgar Allan Poe,  Jane Austen The Great Gatsby(one of my favorites), and The Scarlet Letter. So I say "I read The Great Gatsby when I was fourteen, it's always been a favorite of mine, and I've had to study it in High School and College." She reads the back... One sentence on the back says "The story of the fabulously wealthy Jay Gatsby and his love for the beautiful Daisy Buchanan, of lavish parties on Long Island when The New York Times noted 'gin was the national drink and sex the national obsession,'..." She flipped out about the sex part, there is no sex in The Great Gatsby, it's mentioned. An affair is part of the story, but that's about it... There is no sex scene... I calmly explained this to the woman, she told me that I wanted to "be a bad influence on a young mind...". She calms down a bit and looks at the complete works of Edgar Allen Poe, and asks me "He wrote a story about a raven, didn't he?" This doesn't bother me, I'm a geek, I know too much about Literature. I get that other people may not be familliar with certain authors. I say, "Yes, a poem actually. I've read his work numerous times throughout my education." "This seems creepy, I doubt they would read this in a Catholic school." Now, I've been to public school, Christian school, and Catholic school... In all three schools I've read The Tell-tale Heart, The Cask of Amontillado, The Black Cat, The Raven, Annabel Lee, The Masque of the Red Death, and more... I decide not to say anything, I don't want to get into religion or piss her off. So I show her Shakespear she buys Romeo and Juliet... then(and this really pisses me off) she walks over to the teen section and picks up every Gossip Girl book there is... And she didn't want that kid reading about sex. I just stand there with a polite look and then ring up her purchases. This woman had me helping her for about two hours. The only reason I still work there is because 1) I usually like my job and 2) I'm moving to New York in a few months so I'll need the money...

Sorry, I just HAD to rant. I sound pretty stuck up about The Great Gatsby and knowing Literature, but it's just a subject I love so much and I've focused on for a good part of my life, and I hate it when I know for a fact I'm right, but I can't say that I am right because it's not polite...
I'm going to try to get some sleep because if I don't I will be a zombie tomorrow...
Goodnight,
Sam

Okay, so last night I find out that MTV is supposed to post something, so it was already pretty late and I was on my computer uploading some things and IMing Dana. So Dana and I decide to stay up until whatever is post is posted, and at four I went to bed. I share a room w/ my nine year old sister and she woke up early and left the bedroom door open. At about 8:30 my mom decides to vacuum right outside my door and I wake up.
I'm dead on my feet all morning until at about 10:15am I decide to take a nap until 11 because I have somewhere to be at 1(better get going soon lol it's 12:55) I don't wake up until 12 and what do I see in every email I have? MTV POSTS NEW TWILIGHT VID!!!!!!!!!!! I watch it like three times, run to take a shower, post it on BPE and watch it again... and then post this.

I thought the video was AWESOME! Rob's American accent is beyond sexy, and the fight scenes look great.

I think Twilight will be the next great Vampire Movie(I haven't seen a good one in a while... Don't even get me started about 30 Days of Night)

I get about anywhere from twenty to two-hundred emails a day(some are from work, school, and friends, but this blog isn't about those)... I LOVE hearing from fellow Twilight fans and hearing your theories, opinions,  and if you like the site, but I also get emails from people being extremely immature, JUST STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Have you ever heard the saying "If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all."?
Let's change that to "If you don't have anything INTELLIGENT to say, don't say anything at all."
I have no problem if anybody on Team Jacob(even though I'm obviously Team Edward) emails me, I don't care if they say "You know, I really want Bella and Jacob to end up together..." that's fine. But, "F*** YOU! EDWARD IS F***ING STUPID!"(taken from an actual email) these types of emails are what bother me.

I LOVE to hear your opinion, but I only care if it is written in a intelligent fashion. Because, believe me, emails in all caps, cursing out somebody because of their opinion do absolutely no good!

Stop asking me to recast the movie! I am a fan, I have NO POWER... I am just like everyother fan, only I own a website... I have absolutely NO POWER! NONE!

I have to go, I am so tired I just got back from New York for Easter...

Ok, so in the last few days we have gotten sooo many new pictures, and people had a few things to say about them... Some people were complaining that Rob and Kristen aren't  carrying their own umbrellas, apparently, from what I've found out on the IMDb boards, it's in the PA's contract to do things like hold umbrellas and things like that. SO STOP EMAILING ME ABOUT THIS!!!!
As for some pictures of Kristen sitting by herself and everyone else together, maybe Kristen likes to be alone. She's about seventeen or eighteen while everyone else is in their twenties, although some of the actors are teenagers too. Kristen just might like to be alone and do her own thing. Some people just like to be alone. There is a picture of her and Nikki Reed, so maybe those other pics were taken on an off day... Who knows? OK so ten less emails that I have to answer!
As for the cars.... I have no problem with the Volvo. Actually if you see the whole thing(not just the back) it's kind of cool. It may not be what anybody pictured, but who really cares(I know the Volvo is Edward's so it's important), IT IS a "silver volvo". Now about Emmett's jeep, it's not red... So what? And Rosalie's car isn't a BMW! It DOES NOT take away from the story!

 

So I may not have made much sense. I just traveled from LA to NYC and my plane got in last night. I'm not very coherent....

Sam

P.S. I'm actually watching The Messengers with Kristen Stewart right now...

  Okay, so a lot of people think that the wedding won't go well, I personally think that there will be a conflict, but the wedding will happen. Well, at least the vows will happen, and Edward and Bella WILL be married, then the conflict will happen. 
   BUT, so many Bella and Edward shippers think that Jacob will ruin the  wedding, I don't think that he will. Though Jake is NOT my favorite character, I don't think that he will ruin the wedding. There is a quote in Eclipse that suggests this, when Jacob tells Bella that he will be good. But, who knows? Believe me, I think Jacob is capable of ruining the wedding, but I'm not sure he would.
    I think that if anybody will ruin the wedding it will be The Volturi...
    

   BUT EDWARD AND BELLA WILL GET MARRIED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
   


    But unfortunately we have to wait for August 2nd!

I love the pics!!!!!! Honestly, I am thrilled. No matter what anybody says(*cough*Dana*cough*), Robert Pattinson is hot, so is Cam Gigandet. I think both make the perfect Edward and James...
And I love that pic... the scene looks sooo awesome(if you didn't know I'm a horror and action movie fanatic so I've seen a lot of fight scenes). Personally, I'm confident that Summit will make a great movie...
