I watched 90210 last night, I'll admit it was all for Kellan Lutz. This is the second show I've watched for him, the other being Generation Kill, and well I found myself liking both shows. I updated my last post with heaps of new photos from the MTV VMAs for those interested, there's more of Taylor and Cam.

Also True Blood needs to stop ending of cliff hangers!! Need episode 3 NOW!

Hmmm I should have been in bed an hour ago... oh and new episodes of Torchwood where on 10HD before.

YAY RPattz and Kristen at the MTV VMA's



( Err too many to count... (will update as I go) )

I HATE YOU AUSTRALIAN IDOL!! WHY DID YOU PUT FUGLY COUNTRY SINGERS IN THE WILD CARDS INSTEAD OF OLLY!! ALLEZ OLLY!!

Sorry for the lack of updates and commenting as of late, for the past week or so I've just had assignment after assignment due. I've got another due Friday then nothing till after holidays. I need the mini break. Sunday night/Monday morning I was up till 9AM doing an 3000 word essay which was only worth 10 marks, I wouldn't have minded if it was either less words, or worth more marks. You probably probably think 10 marks is ok, but part 2 was worth 5 marks and it was a power point slides of part 1 (the essay), then part 3 was worth 5 marks and was a proposal for assignment 2, which really was 1-2 paragraphs of what you were making (you got 1 mark for just writing your group members names).

There's all these other issues for my Project unit, the clients are total idiots and want us to do all this extra stuff they don't even need because their trying to milk us for work, doesn't help that they have no idea about some things (at least some of the staff are super nice and sweet). Plus my feet hurt because we had a presentation in front of class and my group dressed up and wore heels around Deakin all day (after comments no one came dressed nice last week, yet we we're the only ones this week).

Also why is gas/petrol so expensive? My Dad, brother and I went to fill up before, my car was half full and cost about $45, while my brother's alone was $82!! It came up to $181!! Even with the 4 cents off per litre we only saved $5. LOL The girl at the counter told my brother to take 5 Freddo frogs because they were free to which my brother asked if she was sure, and she told him to trust her and she'll show him. It was because if you spend money in the store you get an extra 2 cents off, and because we had gotten enough petrol that extra 2 cents became $2.50 which was the price of the Freddo frogs. Too bad they didn't have Caramello Koala, I love those.

I've only read some of the leaked Midnight Sun, I don't know why but I've been really "Meh" about it. I really enjoyed the first chapter though. I'm not sure if it's because I've been pretty flat out with assignments or the fact that I know what happens. I also not a fan how Smeyer has blamed fans for the leak when most of them (ie me) didn't even know about it till she commented about it. I'll think she'll still write it (for the money), probably just wanted a ego boost (of fans telling her they still love her after Breaking Dawn, which I did like btw).

Also for some reason as of late I've been obsessed with nail polish, I even ordered about $28US worth the other day (why does O.P.I have to cost so much here and have such pretty shades and cool names). So much for not spending any more money.

Bleh I'm been a bit sick since yesterday. I've got a bit of a sore throat but it's left me in a sluggish mood. Twilight stuff in the mail cheered me up though. I got the Comic Con stuff (the poster and cards) from blowqueen a few weeks ago, but I got the calendar from apostrophethis yesterday. Of course I couldn't help but make HQ scans of all the pages, so much pretty.



( Mini Pic Spam of the Calendar (HQ Scans) )

I noticed that both Alice and Rosalie have the Cullen "family crest" around their necks, then Edward and Emmett have it as wrist bands/cuffs, and then we know Carlisle has it as a ring. Does anyone know how Jasper and Esme has theirs?

ETA: YAY Matthew Mitcham won gold with a crazy good dive at the end. I love how giddy he looks after a good jump. The Opals are now playing against USA, GO OPALS!!

I just got this email. You suck Harry Potter. I guess with HP pushed back, Summit had the opportunity to push their's forward. I hope it means we'll get it earlier in Australia as well.

Great so they pushed the released date of Harry Potter and The Half Blood Price back till July 2009. Like it wasn't a long enough wait as it was. Well I hope this gives Twilight movie a chance to be huge. At least this photo (from the latest EW) made up for it, a little.

Tom Felton released another EP on iTunes. This ones called "All I Need". I haven't had a good listen yet (distracted by the Olympics) but I really like All I Need. Time Isn't Healing is still my favourite though.



I didn't think I'd get caught up with the Olympics but I have. I've been watching channel 7's coverage when I have nothing else to watch. Has anyone else been watching?

They had a book review for Breaking Dawn this morning on "The Morning Show". LOL Larry I could tell thought the story was kind of cheesy and the reviewer explained that you have to read them to get it. She gave the book 4/5 stars, and said their good for people who like reading saga type books, Larry looked baffled when she said you should get them all and read them, and preceded to say "It's 10 cms thick!" I'm curious so poll time:

Poll #1237146 Breaking Dawn: Love it? Hate it?
Open to: All, detailed results viewable to: All

What did you think of Breaking Dawn?

She also said the movie is out January (9th) here, which led me to find out they had A4 posters advertising the movie. How did I not know this? There's probably no more at Hoytes, since google brought up a results where people had the poster last month.

Ok so I've now I've had some time to process my thoughts. ( Thoughts, and of course spoilers )

Also I think I'm crazy, I hope I don't regret it. My bank account has never been sadder.

WOOO HOOO Just finished Breaking Dawn!! I'll post my thoughts later and what's I've been up-to between reading the book. Right now I should work on that assignment due tomorrow.

It's 5:30 now and I'm on the way to Deakin. My friend and I just have been running all over Chadstone trying to find 2 more copies of Breaking Dawn for her and her cousin, I got the last non-pre order which the cover was ripped a bit but I was worried if I didn't buy it I wouldn't be able to get it at all. My friend's cousin called a few places and Angus & Robertson's are sold out everywhere in Australia till Friday when they get more stock. Target haven't unpacked their stock so they don't know if they'll have it or not.

Really kicking myself now for not pre-ordering it, I under estimated it's popularity here. Had I known I would have pre-ordered or come in the morning to beat of the crazy school girls. Didn't even go to the event because we were running around Chadstone, I took a peak though and it was this tiny little area for it and it was pack with girls in their school uniforms.

ETA photo! My Lewis Hamilton cap came today too!! I'll never wear it, but it's still pretty and I'm supporting him, LOL.

Did anyone watch the EW clips from Comic Con? 1. Did anyone watch the Dollhouse one? The interviewer commented to Joss that Smeyer was really looking forward to Dr. Horrible. 2. When are we going to get these (*points below*) photos? 3. YAY They finally added the EW photos to Contour, but their only the same ones from EW, I was hoping to get some outtakes (unless you count the photo without the cross on the roof not photoshopped out).


Also from what I gather RPattz isn't doing Bella's lullaby, he's just doing another two songs. Also Muse might be doing a bit of a remixed version of the song being used to make it more "Twilighty".

WHAT?!?! Breaking Dawn spoilers already?!?! MUST. NOT. LOOK! Dude Monday seems even father away now.

Only one more week till Breaking Dawn (in Australia). I've got gaps in my timetable on Tuesday which I'll probably read it in, and I have no classes Wednesday. Still unsure where I'll get the book, I think Borders is cheapest (so far), and I want see if I can see what stuff they are doing for the launch (even though I won't be able to make it because of my Uni workshop). Of course all this also depends on if I don't have a meeting earlier that day, because the only time my group seems to be free, is before the workshop.

Did anyone read the "spoiler" for Breaking Dawn? ( I just knew... )

Also while I was bored I was looking at E.L.F, why does the Australian one have hardly anything the US one has? Plus almost everything is $1 is the US, it's $3.95 here.

Quick happy birthday to hotpot8202 and adiaaida!!

ETA: How cute is this Dollhouse photo from Comic Con? There's more of other Comic Con guests here (including Twilight).

I've been reading all the Twilight stuff from Comic Con and by the sounds of things fangirls killed Comic Con, lol. It's not only me who thinks that some of the cast didn't know what they were getting into when they signed up? RPattz and Kristen always look o_O around fans. Though others are really great, like Cam and Taylor (who I think I have a tiny crush on because he's so bubbly, and seems so energetic and into Twilight). Inkworks are making trading cards as well!! So tempted to buy a box so I can get the set of cards. Also is anyone going to buy Bella's engagement? Hope we'll hear about other shows/panels over the weekend, ie Heroes, Supernatural, etc.

Borders in Chadstone are also having a pre-released event for Breaking Dawn. I want to go but it's 4:30-7PM and I have a lecture at 5-7PM and I can't miss it because it's my Project unit and my group members wouldn't be pleased. I still haven't decided where I'll get the book, Borders has it for $20, but I'm not sure if Target/Kmart at Fountain Gate will have it or will be as cheap. Also depends if I have a meeting that Monday before my lecture, if I don't I can pop over before and buy it.

BAH I'm so jealous of everyone who got to go to Comic Con and saw the Twilight cast and got Twilight freebies!! Should be interesting to see how "Bella's Lullaby" that RPattz wrote turns out. Also SQUEE Muse on the soundtrack!! Deakin's Shop 4U was playing Knights of Cydonia by Muse today, and walked in to get my paper and went "aww it's Muse".

One day I will go to comic con.
