Breaking Dawn, Done
There are few words to explain the way I’ve fallen in love with Twilight. I wouldn’t go as extreme to say I’m a “twihard” or that I’ll be knocking down the door for the first showing of Breaking Dawn part 1, but I will say that I finally understand the fascination that even adults have with the […]

iShanella (@shanella) had a great idea yesterday- stemmed from my “Today My Name Is” silly Starbucks-AM-rush baristas theory: how they can never quite get your name right! So I started a category and thought I’d quickly post my name on random days where they didn’t get it correct; see more>>. The idea?- you’re probably wondering: mess […]
MoreMercedes Guardian
So of course, Breaking Dawn started with a kick! Something I HAD to research before getting into the book. Edward had convinced Bella to get her the “before” car to keep her safe- what was referred to as the “Mercedes Guardian”. The first scene is Bella parked at a gas station, filling it up- convincing […]

It passes unevenly, in strange lurches and dragging lulls, but pass it does. Even for me.”- Bella I’ve neglected to mention that I worked through Twilight within 5 days, and quickly […]
MoreIt Begins…Twilight
100 pages in, in just 1 day and I can’t get enough. I knew this was going to be a problem (read why). This love story is to die for. The super well written and descriptive novel by Stephanie Meyer has already stolen my heart. HUGE difference between movie and book, as always- it never […]
MoreTo Twilight or Not?
So… while I do conform to many trends like Uggs, Longchamp bags and more… the Twilight Saga was not something I really caught up with when everyone was avidly reading the story of Bella and her 2-way with a hot vampire and werewolf. I mean jesus, how non-realisitc…a girl is emotionally crazy over 2 guys […]
