Twilight - the song

I recently wrote a song about the book, "Twilight" by Stephenie Meyer. Let me know what you think!

It's called "Twilight" oddly enough.

Twilight

Photobucket

I recently heard a good bit of buzz on this new movie coming out based off of the novel, "Twilight" by Stephanie Meyer. So, after seeing the teaser trailer, I was intrigued enough with the story line to buy the book and read it. I like mystery/magical stories. So obviously, I'm a Harry Potter fan. haha

Anyway, I read the book in only two days. I could barely put it down. I'd give it 4 stars. Definitely had a great plot line that wasn't too hard to follow, and the suspenseful setbacks you see foreshadowed but never anticipate until they hit you. Which I really can enjoy in stories. When the author knows how your mind works. That really makes for a good writer. And Stephanie didn't miss any turn in my mind.

The main character even reminded me of myself to sound cliche. My hair also looks red in the sunlight. But it was more than just the little things, though I'm definitely not so clumsy. The thought processes were definitely in common light though. I won't get too far into it. I just thought it was ironic and cool.

That said, I very much enjoyed the book and will dutifully continue in the series. I also can't wait until the movie comes out. I want to see what they changed/kept from the actual story. From the trailer though they had dialogue spot on. Am I now a book nerd?

Perhaps I'll take it as a compliment. :-)

Read the book, and see the movie. Its quite enjoyable, and promises to make for a good flick.

I'll Get Back To You

One of these days
I'll take the time to see you
I'll take the time to feel you
I'll take you.

Someday I might take what's mine
Use what's mine
Spend it. Feed it. Waste it all.
Mine.

Whether I'm here for you or I
does it matter?
I'm here.
Take it how you will.

When we're all going to live and die
Is it up to you if I'm happy?
Is it up to you if I'm sad?
Do you care at all?

Condensation is the greatest give away
Whether it's on your skin or on the drink in your hand
You know you've been here too long
and you haven't taken one sip.

Tell the night it's yours to lose
Tell the morning to grow a face
Tell your folks you're sorry for screwing everything up
Tell the world you found your place

And if you ask me where I stand
ask me where I am
on falling in and out of love
on and life and living
on hope and caring and feeling
on trying and failing and wishful thinking
on trial and error and everything in between the crevices of known and unknown
on happiness

I'll get back to you.

Epiphany

You know... I've come to realize that no one ever really "grows up" in the world. Maybe they appear to, but it's always just masked behind a job title, and occupation, a degree, a legacy, talent, fame, or money. I think people just don't know what "growing up" is, really. See, most people probably see it as the amount of money you make in a year, or possibly what you've accomplished, what you own, and how far you've come. Is it ever about the whole of someone's being? Does it ever encompass someone's history in relation to their beliefs about life and living now? Will it ever be about who they REALLY are, and not just about what they do on a day to day basis? I mean, a lot of people try to hide who they are in their work. I see politicians and I wonder what really goes through their heads. What do they think about, feel, all the deep dark things they hide from the public eye, for obvious reasons. Because they're also human.

Sure everyone makes mistakes, I mean we're only human. But in that sense, I guess it's safe to say no one is ever going to grow up. Because we're human. We can't help but give in to temptation now and then. Drink and be stupid on the weekends, curse the day, go out and wreak havoc on the world at night, watch a porno, smoke your lungs out, lie, cheat, steal, run away from your problems, experiment with drugs, think evil thoughts, disobey your parents, go out past curfew, break someone's heart, indulge yourself with food and lavish clothes and expensive things.

We're not all terrible people. But we're human, so we're all terrible. The world will never grow up.

American Idol Winner

So it ended how I wanted it to. :-) I'm very very happy that both of them are sharing the limelight though, and that both of them get to make a record. I'll be purchasing both of them.

And Cook won by 12 MILLION votes! That's insane! I don't think that many people will be voting in the election this year... haha Anyway, it was a good fight, and a good win. And I'm happy for both of them. :-D

New Song!
