A guy reads Twilight by Stephenie Meyer (2009-2011)

Reading Eclipse: Chapter 19 (Selfish)

The song for this chapter is Crushed by Lesley Roy

[audio:https://twilightguy.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/crushed.mp3]

When I first started Twilight, I told myself that above all, I would not become one of those fans: the one’s who spin around when they see a silver Volvo, or who blink twice anytime a girl says her name is Bella, or re-read quickly when the words ‘dazzle’ or ‘sparkle’ or ‘scintillating’ are used in a sentence. However, I was brought to an immediate pause in my biology class this week, when I opened my textbook to find that we would be studying prophase and anaphase under the microscope.

regain-sanity

These were scientific terms long before Bella and Edward were studying them. Sheesh! Anyhows, despite my lopsided posting due to an equally lopsided school schedule, I couldn’t resist grabbing the book and finding out what happened next, as the vampires and werewolves near a war (and not even against each other…yet).

First off, I find it so interesting that Leah is now a werewolf. Up until now, I’ve only known of male werewolves (perhaps I have lost something along the way) but now I’m intrigued. I wonder if Leah could become the anti-Alice: like her werewolf counterpart, the balancing factor between the vampires and the werewolves. It makes me wonder if there is simply a disproportionate amount of male werewolves, or if the females simply do not live in that part of the country. And no wonder Sue is upset: both of her children have up and turned themselves into wolves. Try explaining that to the neighbors.

The whispers about the werewolf pack is so much like a soap opera, now that I’ve heard a bit of Embry’s history. Who’s cheating who? Who’s being true? And who don’t even care anymore? I hadn’t expected this from them, when their pack is so tight. Wouldn’t they be able to read the minds of each other and know the truth: or, at least have the risk of it, in the case of those-who-did-not-become-werewolves? Perhaps I’m simply jumping to scandalous conclusions…

does-not-approve

But, while I was trying to think about the various possibilities of Embry’s heritage, I was distracted by a thought Bella voiced: will she be the cause of someone’s death? Because, after all, trouble seems to follow her wherever she goes — and not just in the clumsy sort of way either. This newborn vampire war seems to be the closest anyone has come to dying on her behalf. If someone does die, will it be her fault?

I have begun to gather clues to each chapter from the title, and this one is titled ‘Selfish’. It makes me wonder things. Who is really being selfish? Is it Bella, for wanting Edward to stay with her and out of danger? Is it Edward, who wants Bella away from the fighting, even though her being there might help to save the lives of some of his own family? Perhaps it is a bit of both. Maybe neither of them wants to the lose the other, and in doing so, are willing to sacrifice anything — despite the fact that it might cost the lives of others in the process.

Dire thoughts aside, there is something about Bella talking with the werewolf Jacob that strikes me. I don’t know what it is, but it seems to be one of the softest scenes I have read so far between her and Jacob: as if when he is in that form, it’s moreso the real Jacob Black, and the human form is simply something he assumes at certain times. Even Bella seems to feel how different Jake is:

“It was strange. Even though he was in this bizarre form, this felt more like the way Jake and I used to be — this easy, effortless friendship that was as natural as breathing […]”

As I read this scene, I noticed again why I seem to like Edward more than Jacob. Edward is a listener. He wants to hear what Bella has to say, and he wants to do anything that will make her happy and safe. But Jacob seems to be harsher in this sense: he seems to speak more, to talk without listening. Jacob can’t seem to assume the mature respect that Edward carries towards Bella: that is, until he turns into a werewolf.

Not Related To Current Thoughts

But now, it’s a quiet scene again, this calm before the storm, with Jacob and her side-by-side watching the preparations for battle. He can’t say anything — he can only listen to Bella. There is warmth in this scene, I can almost feel it as I read: not just the warmth that Bella feels coming from Jacob, but a genuine, friendly warmth that lightens the loathing that Bella had developed for Jacob after giving him a (much deserved) whack. And I can’t help but feel like Bella: maybe, Jacob Black isn’t so bad after all πŸ˜€

Question for the comments: for both Team Jacob and Team Edward, do you like Jake better in his wolf form or his human form? Also, haveΒ  you ever reacted strangely when you recognize something Twilighty in real life (aka a shiny silver volvo).

  1. I have had such a funny moments whit the volvos. Once I was having brekfast wile I wath the T.V. In that moment the video of Decode was in M.T.V. since it was the first time I saw it, you can imagine my reaction. Later that day, a friend and I went to get the tickets for the twilight premiere, and we where in the bus when we saw a shiny silver volvo, just like the one in the movie. I was so exited that I actually bit my finger to stop me from screaming. (there was a little blood, buy nothing serious). And to end my day, I saw in television an interview to Rob Pattz when he came to Mexico.
    I can say that that was the best twilight-related day in my life (of course, it stands after the day I watch twilight in the movies 2 times in the same day).

    P.D.
    BTW Im sorry for my crappy english…

  2. I like Jake in his wolf form better than human. Well, he can’t talk in that form. Which makes me happy because most of the time he gets on my nerves. *waits to be attacked by team Jacob people*

    And HECK YES I have! Whenever I see or hear anything that could relate to Twilight or any of the other books, I jump around and squeal and then have to try and calm down before I get really hyper. xD

  3. BTW I forgot…
    I like Jake in his human form because, lets face it, he is funny after all. I’m team Edward (there’s other team??? xD) but I like Jacob, and I like the way he relates with Bella, ‘Cause in some aspects he knows her better that Edward does.

  4. I hate hate HATE him in Eclipse!.
    he`s such a jerk in that book >:(
    but I actually really like him in Breaking Dawn. πŸ˜€ (sorry if that spoiled you in any way)

    I guess I like him in his wolf form better. he`s a tas more bearable then. πŸ™‚

    oooh & YES I always squeal & giggle when I see anything Twilight related!.
    also, everytime I see a Twilight movie poster I make a big fuss πŸ˜€

  5. * I meant he`s a tad more bearable then . hehe .

    P.S. where I come from, we have this music show called Vodafone Select Live.. it`s kinda like TRL?. anyhoooo~
    every show they have a sort of Song Battle?. it`s called This vs. That & people vote for the song they like better.. & well Decode just beat the World Record of Chris Brown & Jordin Sparks` No Air . πŸ˜€ it`s been the winner for 24 days straight . πŸ˜€
    all because of the Twilight Fans . =)

  6. ok so im team switzerland, and i cant chose… but i like jacob in both of his forms

    And I have become the twilight freak of my school, such as:

    My teacher was joking around that my friend was talking too much, and he said, “i will totally give you a paper cut,” and i added “in front of jasper”

    I saw in a song at church “the lion and the lamb,” and had 2 restrain myself from screaming , especially since i was in the first row.”

    I make a twilight reference out of just about everything even if we weren’t discussing twilight at the time

    My friend and i bought team switzerland sweatshirts and wore them on the same day. They said “i refuse to be affected by the territorial disputes between mythical creatures” we got more strange looks than anybody on that campus combined, even though our principal walks around with a life-sized yoda all day

    yeah…

  7. Im Team Switzerland and I LOVE Jake in his human form. He gives that comic relief that the books need and some of his favorite moments in the book have to do with Jake!

  8. so unfortunately i do get a little fan girly when i see volvos and twilight posters. not so much anymore but when the movie first came out. yea. yea i did. and jacob…. well personaly he just annoys me all around.

  9. I don’t mind Jacob in either of his forms. . .

    As for the Twilight related stuff, yes I have. . . I don’t scream, but whenever I notice something associated with the Twilight Saga, I run through everything in my head. . . it gets a little annoying sometimes. . . The only times I really get hyper with Twilight-ness is when I see something that relates to Alice. . . =)

  10. It’s hard to say with Jake, I really do like him all around, although I’m Team Edward. I think the same things go when he’s in wolf form, just that we’re still seeing it from Bella’s perspective, so she is unaware, thus making her feel closer with him. Not that the pretenses are gone, just that she doesn’t hear him voicing them, so it’s easier for her to feel the original connection to him then.

    I’m not much of a jumper and a squealer. I think my level-headedness would fare just fine in most situations. There’s a possibility I would end up screaming like a teen girl if I met Kellan or Rob.

    What I took away from the whole Embry- daddy thing was that no one really knows, Embry included. Maybe his Mom was a little promiscuous? πŸ™‚ I am with you- Clearly, if he knew who his father is, chances are pretty good that the rest of the pack would know as well.

  11. I like Jake better in his wolf form ’cause just like Mizuki he get’s on my nerves..especially in eclipse..!..
    BTW..i loved jacob in new moon..he was not annoying n he was nice n sweet..!!..

    OH YES!!..whenever i see anything twilight related my heart beatusually staggersn then it starts pumping blood on a ‘little’ more than Normal rate
    πŸ™‚

  12. i’m on and off about this jacob because i’ll like him when he’s nice but he has anger issues i’m all for edward i love him i think its so cool how you like talk to them :O

  13. I donΒ΄t like Jacob at all!!!! Sorry, but itΒ΄s true… When i read the books for the fist time I had to read the parts when Jacob appears, I felt obligated, but when i re-read them I skip them, hehe…

    But I really like Taylor Lautner as Jacob. When I saw the movie it was the first time that I liked Jacob at all…but not from the books..

    And well! About the twilight moments, IΒ΄m not really a crazy twilight fan, I havenΒ΄t bought even a poster or anything, but I do turn when I see a car (i have seen a red truck like BellaΒ΄s), or get excited when I hear a song that I can relate to the story. But the craziest thing that had happend to me, well, I live in a city where it rains like almost 6 days per year, so itΒ΄s really rare to see a cloudy day. So, I get really excited when it happens because I think that Edward could be outside in a day like that and hang out with me:D hehehe, silly, I know…

  14. Okay… I like Jake in his wolf form better. Maybe I’m biased a little, becuase I loved wolves before I read the series, but still. In this form, I agree that he has to listen rather than talk, like usual.

    Sure, he can be Bella’s presonal sun at times, but he’s a very talkative sun.

    And so far, I only react when I see merchandise, because I know I cant get any of it (the nearest Hot Topic is so far, I dont even want to THINK I can get there…), and not many people in my small town will be able to afford a Volvo. Regardless.

  15. Yeah I agree with you (Kaleb) on your opinions on liking Edward more than Jacob. Reading you post today actually made me think of another side of what I thought when reading this chapter. Especially on the selfish notes.

    As for the questions. I think I prefer Jacob in wolf form but sometimes I like him in human form. In wolf form he needs to rely on his listening skills rather than sharing his opinion. He also seems more relaxed. I like his human form because his funny.

    I have reacted strangly when I recognized something related to Twilight. I feel a little happier but I dont scream loudy or jump around. I just get excited and smile widely.

  16. okay. i like in australia. and i didnt think something this big would happen to me.
    but i was walking out the door to go, go karting with my cousins and i started screaming. i litterly fell to the ground. edwards shinny silver volvo was parked in the neighbours driveway. i screamed soooooooo much.
    it was awesome!

  17. Wolf form. At least then he can’t try to make out with Bella. Well, hopefully not… πŸ™

    And of course I react to Twilight related things in real life! Especially with friends. We see a Volvo, we high five. Someone has topaz eyes, we high five. There was this time in SOSE, where we were learning about the Battle of Normandy, with Edward the Confessor. I had 5 or so Twilighter friends in that class. We all shot eachother smirks. It was awesome. But I digress.

    Great post. πŸ˜‰

  18. well, IΒ΄m reading Eclipse too …again :D. But IΒ΄m on the 24. chapter. Victoria is here now πŸ˜€ …I like this book in my way much than others :). But Twilight is still number one.

  19. i personally am team switzerland…. but i like jacob in his human form, because he is honest and says what he feels….my boyfriend, who is not a fan of twilight, reacted to seeing a shiny
    silver volvo in the parking lot of the movie theater after we saw the movie….he was all “look, edward is here..” it was great.

  20. I can totally identify with you with the whole mitosis thing, Kaleb! I had never studied it before this year (when I read Twilight for the first time I was like, What The Heck?) but when I was flipping through my textbook I saw it and I was like O M G. I was so excited to learn what they are, it’s not even funny. I guess that’s what obsession does to you.
    I have a Science exam on Monday… and I’m sooo bad at identifying the phases and the only thing that keeps me studying is “MUST…BE…AS…PRO…AS…BELLA…AND…EDWARD!!!”
    xD

    As for the other question… I don’t really know. Jacob is really funny, I like him in both forms. Of course, he got on my nerves A LOT in Eclipse… so in this book, I guess as a werewolf because he was less annoying.

  21. I love Jacob, in both human and wolf form. : )

    There’s this blue van down the street from me and I every time I pass it, I mentally shout “TYLER CROWELY’S VAN!”. Pathetic? Absolutely.

    So I’m pretty excited to hear your thoughts on the next chapter : D. 20 and 22 are my favorite chapters in Eclipse!

  22. I very much prefer Jake in his wolf form coz he can’t be the loud-mouth jerk that he is normally then. Soz TJers, but I’m a TEer. Also yeah, my brother bought a silver volvo and I nearly screamed in the middle of the street, it was very embarressing… But I’m okay again now, and my friend has some sort of Robsession going on πŸ˜€

  23. I like Jacob in wolf form better than when he is a human but I still stay on Team Edward.
    Yes my friends boyfriend drives a silver volvo no one has seen him eat or sleep or seen him in the sun so we are all convinced he is a vampire.

  24. I had art 2 once and the guy next to me was going a bit over the top with silver glitter. He spilled some all over his arm, and then nudged me and was like “Look I s-par-kle!” Usually I would have given him a weird look, but when I looked at his arm and saw that it was indeed sparkling I flipped out. It took me about 15 seconds to calm down. By that time he was the one giving me the weird look.

  25. Okay, so I work in retail (selling spices, but that’s beside the point). I always talk to customers when I’m ringing them up, and when they say they’re from out of town I like to find out where. One day, a lady told me she wished our store had a location in Washington State. I asked if she was from Seattle, and she said, “No, the Olympic Peninsula.” I was DYING to ask if she was from Forks, but I knew I’d sound like the world’s biggest dork. Still, it put a stupid grin on my face for like half an hour (I might’ve met someone from Forks!).

    I actually looked on our mailing list to see if anyone from Forks signed up to get our catalog (not yet).

  26. When my friend and I were once very bored during our English lesson we flipped through our book and discovered that there’s a town called Carlisle in the UK…we started laughing and our teacher was looking at us like we were crazy…it was really embarassing…

  27. I really like Jacob in both forms. I think a balance of the two is necessary and completely essential to the story. Yes, when Jacob is in wolf form, he is forced to listen. But think back to New Moon for a minute. Remember how much attention he pays to Bella? How much he really does listen? He knew things she never even told him, like how she “didn’t like music,” and that she was “holding herself together.” Jacob does genuinely love Bella, and you have to remember, he’s only a 16-year-old boy in love for the first time. He can only be so mature. Of course Edward is more mature, he’s over 108! Anoter point to be made: When you really think about it, Jacob actually knows Bella better than Edward in some aspects. I mean, he knew Bella loved him. How many 16 year old boys can pick up on things like that? Jacob in his human form is really important too, though. He provides comic relief and conflict (even if you’re not Team Jacob, don’t you think the story would be kind of boring without him? without the love triangle? It would have to be a lot shorter, and some of your favorite parts of the books might never happen.). Jacob’s character is essential to Bella learning more about herself, and to becoming the person she is. I say all that to say, I don’t like Jacob better in either form, I just like that he has two forms.

    On the subject of freakouts:
    I TRY not to freak out in public, but do it mentally 24/7. No how miniscule something may have been in the books, I can find it in real life. I get excited over words, over views that look like something I pictured out of Twilight, and over music, definitely. I basically give every song I hear an automatic evaluation of where I think it would fit in the Twilight series. (Speaking of which, the band Deas Vail, album All The Houses Look the Same–so many of those songs would be perfect for the New Moon soundtrack, go check them out!)My best friend got the prophase/anaphase questions right on her freshman biology exam at Auburn University because of a Twilight facebook bumper sticker I sent her. Speaking of my best friend…she and I are both completely obsessed, and while we may not freak out (visibly) when we’re apart or with other people, when we’re together we just let ourselves be completely geeky and we freak over EVERYTHING! We’ve even started a news blog/information extravaganza called the Twilight Tabloid. (If you want to check it out, we’re (proudly) linked on Kaleb’s affiliates page!)

  28. Okay… I am about to make some Team Jacob people mad here. I would say I prefer Jake in his wolf form because you have to be a mind reader to hear him! He can’t talk to you and be the big jerk he is!
    Also…
    Once when I was driving with my mom, I saw a Porsche! It was red, but still. Ever since then, I’ve wanted a Porsche! he he! I am a BIG Alice and Jasper fan!

  29. I Definitely Like Jacob Better in His Wolf Form. And Not Just Because I Just Love Dogs & Wolves. When Jacob’s a Wolf He Can’t Talk, Meaning He Can Only Listen. So Even Though He’s Forced to Only Listen He Seems to Care More. He Can Stop Any Kind of Act He’s Putting On to Try & Win Bella Over & Just Be Himself When He’s a Wolf. He Can Just Sit There With Her & Everything Becomes the Way it Was. When He’s Human I Don’t Think Jacob Really Realizes What He’s Exactly Saying. It Probably Just Pops in His Head & He Says it Without Thinking About the Repercussions. Even Though I’m Definitely Not Team Jacob I Do Feel For Him. He’s so Determined to Win Bella Over Even Though He Knows it’s Essentially a Fruitless Battle.

    ANYTHING That is Related or Can Somehow Be Connected to Twilight Makes Me Smile & Squeal. Like We’re Learning About the Native Americans in Social Studies & I Always Think of the Quileutes. And in the Book We’re Reading They Say the Word ‘Dazzle’ a lot. And I Always Think to Myself, “Psh, This Book is Not Cool Enough to Use That Epic Word. Only Twilight is.” I Know There’s More But Considering it’s Morning I Can’t Think of Them. But I Do Know My Life Has Been Overrun By Twilight. And Frankly, I Love it.

  30. I feel like after all that time I spent defending Jacob I should add that I’m 100% Team Edward, I just feel like Jacob is really important, and, on top of that, I’m just like Bella. I love them both!

  31. About Jacob…
    When I was reading the books for the first time….I hated Jacob with every beat of my heart.He annoyed me and I did not understand how bella can love him after all the crap he did.
    Than I re-readed them and in Breaking down I kinda started to like him.Kinda.
    By the way,reading Breaking dawn for the first time was hard…
    whe I saw that there’s an actual “book two.jacob” I almost started to cry.
    After all…I liked him in it..and since the Twilight movie…I don’t hate him.Dunno.Taylor has such a nice personality that makes me love Jacob.Ok..not love,Like.

    About Twilight related things.
    About a week ago,I saw an old,big,red Chevy….just like Bella’s.
    Oh..and everytime I get on a bus which has a Twilight transparent on it…I can’t stop smiling.
    And yesterday I went to Waterstones…and a girl was standing there with all the books…I’m pretty sure she was trying to figure out which is the second…and the 3.I started to giggle.

  32. I went to an ice cream stand once and as I parked the car I noticed the red convertible next to my car looked strangely familiar. This was strange because I don’t really hang with the shiny red convertible group… more the 10 year old Ford Taurus group. I quickly racked my mind for why I recognized this car and realized that it was the BMW M3… My first thought was “It’s Rosalie’s car!” I seriously looked around the parking lot for a gorgeous blond before my sense of reality came back…

  33. I’m currently enrolled in Biology at the college where I live, and we start covering prophase and anaphase next week. I giggled a little. Unfortunately my lab partners name is Prudence. I also, by complete accident, parked next to a silver Volvo at school last week. I considered waiting for the driver…
    To answer your other question: I prefer Jacob in wolf form. When he talks, he most definitely doesn’t edit, and Bella needs that sometimes-otherwise you might push her to do something crazy (again.) I wonder if he would have allowed her in the meadow?

  34. I do not distinguish between Jacob as wolf and human being. I simply like him in Twilight, was annoyed in New Moon (I’m totally vampire girl. There were times in New Moon I was completely bored because the werewolves had the full attention), hated him during Eclipse and in Breaking Dawn he redeemed himself again. So I can simply say – every scene between Bella and Jacob in Eclipse was painful me. I always felt so so sorry for Edward. Especially he can hear his thoughts all time long – without difference when he is human or wolf.

    He still is a good friend for Bella. I can understand his actions but he should have trusted her actions more. And more importantly he should have accepted her decisions. Even when he completely disagrees.

  35. About the things related to Twilight, well, I live in a country where you have to be rich to own a volvo or any other car in the books, so I have to be lucky to see one. I saw a silver volvo the other day, and I was trying to see who was driving it, it was very funny.

    Well, I am team switzerland, i like both jacob and edward. i think i like jacob both ways, because i can even feel more comfortable with him as a werewolf, and is hard to talk to him when he is a human, cause, as you said, hes not such a good listener, and he is kind of agressive sometimes. but i still love him πŸ˜€

  36. I really don’t understand all of this Jacob hate out there. Yes, I am 100% Team Jacob. I think he is wonderful in both wolf and human form, but if I had to pick between the 2 it would be human form. I think it would be hard to kiss a werewolf! ;0) Jacob is so much better for Bella. Being with Edward is like being with a dull old man. He is no fun at all!I also feel like he treats her like a silly child. Most of the Cullens do. Well, not Emmette. He is the only cool one out of the bunch. At least he likes to laugh and have a good time! Jacob takes Bella for who she is. She does not have to be something she is not. Bella bends over backward for everyone in her life: mother, father, friends, vampires, pretending for them. She does not have to do that for Jacob. And of course Jacob talks a lot. He is human after all and a very happy person. Not like Edward, who is always so serious and stiff. He acts like the 108 year old that he really is. Who, by the way, fell in love with a 17 year old girl. Just a wee bit creepy.

  37. I absolutely love the fact that you freaked out about studying anaphase and all that stuff in biology πŸ™‚ because I did to a few weeks ago, we did the exact same lab as Bella and Edward did and my entire class was like going crazy. haha. it’s all in good fun of course.

  38. I don’t jacob in his wolf form any better. You’ll see why in the next book.:)

    I have been startled by something twilight. I’m a theatre major at my college, and we had a work sheet in acting class that gave examples of ‘motivations’ that actors might use for lines. One, for a guy was ‘to dazzle her’ I almost laughed out loud in class! considering there’s only 10 people it would have been conspicuous.

  39. I’m not really sure, but I think I’d have to go with wolf form. He is a nice person, but when he’s human he messes up alot trying to make Bella want him and makes a nuisance of himself more often than not.

    I always freak out about Twilight stuff. Examples: I was in my car and I saw a Volvo that wasn’t Edward’s car but it was a Volvo and it was silver too! So anyway I started screaming to my mom “IT’S A VOLVO IT’S A VOLVO IT’S A VOLVO IT’S A VOLVO.” My friend says “Bite Me” alot and whenever she does I start histerically laughing. Whenever I see a Twilight-related word in a book (Twilight,Bella,Edward,Dazzles,James,Victoria, Blood, Red, or Black)I stop reading and stare at it for five minutes. And my mom was helping with a project and she cut out a part of a newspaper headline cause she thought I could use it. It was one word. Dazzles. I stole it from the pile of news clippings and wrote Edward above it and people below it. The result: Edward Dazzles People. On another kids project there was a picture of Twilight. That was the only part of their project I saw.

  40. I definitely prefer Jake in his wolf form, like you said, he’s so much warmer then. As for whether I’ve ever gotten excited over Twilighty things…well OF COURSE! First of, I did the same thing you did with prophase and anaphase… It was my first day of grade twelve bio and of course our first unit was meiosis and mitosis! Me and my friend were giggling about it the whole first day. There was also this time when I went to the mall and I couldn’t help but notice that on one side of the hall there was a store called “Jacob” and on the other one called “Eclipse”….Needless to say that made my day and now I notice it everytime I go shopping!

  41. I like Jacob in both if his forms, it really doesn’t matter to me cuz i’m Team Jacob anyway (he provides comic relief, who doesn’t love that?) πŸ™‚ And as for whether i’ve gotten excited over twilight-related things.. YES! It’s really not my fault we live by shops with the name of Bella, and last semester we too learned about prophase and anaphase (needless to say my friends and i got excited). But i digress, anyway i would love to hear your opinion on the upcoming chapter, so please hurry up and read! πŸ˜‰

  42. I definatley like Jake better in his wolf form. He’s this much friendlier kinda guy, and also very cuddly! Anyways, i have freaked out many times while seeing things related to tilight. One time i saw a yellow porche at the supermarket like the one alice has, and i took like 20 pix of it and sent it out to all of my friends lol kinda crazy!

  43. While I was reading New Moon, I saw a Volvo (neither shiny nor silver) in the Walmart parking lot. Being the obsessive Twilighter I am, I started singing “stupid shiny volvo owner I’m so glad to see you here…” which got some weird reactions from my family. I think they thought I’d finally lost it. I looked around while shopping for messy bronze hair but didn’t see any πŸ™‚

    And we’re studying the mitosis phases in Biology right now. The girls in class (especially me) are ecstatic.

    And I like Jake better in wolf form, he’s a lot less annoying. But he IS only 16, whereas Edward has had 90 years to mature, so I don’t blame him for acting like a teenager in love. Because he is one.

  44. oh yeah, and when I was watching the movie “21” (the one about the MIT students who count cards in Vegas) the main character asked, “Did I dazzle you?” and I was like AHHH EDWARD IN DISGUISE! I LOVE YOU!
    I didn’t actually say that, but I was definitally grinning like an idiot and thinking that (in all caps too)

    And when my brother asked if I liked the movie I said something like “he asked if he was dazzling, of course I liked it”
    πŸ™‚ I’m so obsessed, lol

  45. So, I was a little sad to make it to Bio lab and find out, despite learning mitosis again, Edward Cullen didn’t come to my Biology class.

    I was driving by a Volvo S60R that was parked on the side of the road. I had my camera handy and, yes, I have a picture of it. (A quite good one, considering I was driving and taking the picture.)

    The jury’s out on Jake. I like him as a wolf because he can’t talk, but he can be funny, which redeems him at times.

  46. i prefer jake in werewolf form because for once he’s not convincing bella to pick him, he just shuts up and plays the cute wittle puppy πŸ˜›

    there’s a cullen park in the closest city and near it is carlisle’s movers and an edward street…i drove past with my friend and we didnt stop screaming for about 5 blocks lol

  47. i like jacob in his wolf form better…. he’s less of a jerk when he cant talk.but i have to admit that jake is very funny. but at the same time he is very annoying
    :] team edward!!!

    haha yes i freak out when i see a volvo or even a red motorcycle.
    my friends always say im a vampire cuz i have really pale skin and my hands are always freezing lol.

  48. lol..the volvos!! i just saw one yesterday (the movie version volvo) and i squealed!! and it’s not just the volvos, but also the mercedes’. lol

    i don’t know..but everything just reminds me of twilight. lol

    re: Jacob as human or wolf..i think he’s better off as a wolf. he seems more mature than when he’s a human.
