Fantasy worlds, trashy teen novels and great music...

I did it. I thrashed my brain about with the Twilight series (including the leaked 250-something pages from "Midnight Sun") for 4 days. 4 and a half freakin' books in 4 days. I guess it kinda assumes that I was a bit interested in it. Well I was talking to Ems before and she said something I can relate well to: "I liked it for what it was."

I also liked it for what it was.

So what was it? Trashy reading. It made me feel good I suppose. It was some pretty ridiculous writing. All four of the published books were like drafts. They were ridiculously written with some repetitive phrases circling through and through the books. The story line needed fixing. It was a four volume love story that had no real flow. The characters seemed unrealistically nice enough but it just wasn't all right. However, it was good for what it was. It wasn't my favourite but I could appreciate it's young adultness with all it's sexual tension and 3-book-long love triangles. Poor Jacob. At least he got to imprint in the end. And he only has to wait 6 years for her to grow up.

It was good enough for me to absorb it...

I've always lived in a fantasy world. I've written about it before but it's my own world. I don't let other people in. When I was a kid, my other world was a means of escaping from the current reality. Sure there was good and evil there but it was all so black and white and everything made sense. My current fantasy world isn't as black and white but perhaps it's clearer cut than it is here. Perhaps I just didn't read into it so much as a kid. Funny thing is, my fantasy world still exists and every now and then I do escape there. I seem to like it better than real people interaction. That's not to say I don't like it at all. I like the balance.



So I've been listening to a song called "Let me sign" from Rob Pattinson for the last couple of hours and I've decided I really like it. I think Pattinson (the lead actor for the "Twilight" movie) might have some potential as a musician if acting doesn't turn out to be quite as cool.
I like his voice. It's a little unclear what he's actually singing sometimes but his tones are kinda soothing to my ear... as is the music. I only which there was more music than a simple
