The 2nd day of 2010. A lovely Saturday evening. A cozy
carpeted living room. A sturdy coffee table in the centre. A board game on the
table. Scrabble.
It was the time of the evening when it’s dark enough for the stars to be visible and yet bright enough to not have to grope your way around the house without the lights on. Twilight.
The scrabble game was fun. There was fierce competition with a ‘heated exchange of words’. Victory was sweet..for the victor.
The ‘WAGER’ (also the first word of the game) was that if I won, my ‘companion’ would have to watch the movie Twilight with me. And as I watched Twilight for the umpteenth time, I decided to give it some space on my blog.
I am what the urban dictionary would call a ‘Twilighter’ -

I am a fan of The Twilight Saga and am equally crazy about the movies. Now, that is. At first, when I heard about this new rage ‘Twilight’, I was sceptical like most people. I had read a few things here and there about the book but did not give it a second thought.
Then, I got the opportunity of watching the movie ‘Twilight’. My boyfriend had the movie on his computer (no he didn’t download it. He never ever would) and so he passed it on to me in case I wanted to watch it (which he regrets to this day – quote unquote “Shift+Delete would have been a smarter decision.”). I was neither for nor against it, so I thought I’ll give it a shot. See what the movie is like.
And That is how it all started. I Loved the movie!
1. The non-conventional take on Vampires (Vegetarian Vampires who only drink animal blood and Don’t turn in to creepy bats)
2. A love story so enthralling with its innocence and chastity. (till book 3, FYI)
3. The self-sacrificing lover (Edward, sigh!) that you only read about in Books...like this.
4. Edward Cullen = Robert Pattinson (Sigh! Sigh!)
5. Robert Pattinson = Edward Cullen (Sigh! Sigh! Sigh!)
6. “What if I’m not a superhero? What if I’m the bad guy? “ – Edward Cullen
