LTT Memorial Day Questionnaire

Today the lovely UC of @letter2twilight posted a fun questionnaire in lou of a "crappy, not thought-out" letter [her words]...

& I am going to answer it here!

Q: How long have been reading LTT:

A: I think around March or April 2009...

Q: When did you read the Twilight books for the 1st time

A: In November of 2007 I read Twilight in 11hours
I got New Moon & Eclipse for Christmas '07 and finished both in 2.5 days

Then I was at the midnight release of Breaking Dawn:

and read it from 12:45am to 8:45am:

and it is tied with Twilight as my fav

Q: Team Edward or Team Jacob

A: Easypeasy... Edward!

Q: Always?

A: Yes. Unless you consider Team ALICE!

Q: How “out” are you about Twi in your “real life?”

A: Completely. More than I really am... People are always coming up to me to talk about the 'latest news' ... you know the stuff I've known for 4-5days already...

Q: Top 5 people in the Twi world you want to meet the most

A:

5. 

Kristen - so if she is really a bitch irl, I can punch her.

4.

Ashley Greene - because I want used to want to be BFFs,

but now I want a pic with Alice!

3. 

Chris Weitz to rape him pick his brain for directing advice

2. 

Robward Pattinson - obvi!

1. 

Duh! Stephenie Meyer

Q: What are you reading? 

A: The last book I was reading this week was "Kill Your Friends"

Q: Do you have Eclipse Plans?

A: Yes. I will be driving down to south Denver since the cinema complex I work at didn't book it!

[Yeah! They are INSANE for not fighting for it...]

 

And I have since sent an email to UC & Moon requesting advice from the LTT community about my plans...

Q: Three sentence bio (tell us where you’re from!)

A: I’m a 23 year old, single from Colorado, USA. I love dolphins, music, musical theatre, cinema, cats, my cat Kona, crafting, Twilight, True Blood, most vampire lore in visual media (which all started with Buffy), anything from the mind of Joss Whedon and a whole bunch of other stuff. Oh, and I write this blog!

Q: Random Twilight Fact (about yourself)

A: Until I saw the Eclipse trailer for the first time on a movie screen this last Saturday, I thought I was over it *gasp*

So yeah! That was fun!

Feel free to answer these questions about yourself in the comments!

Just Say No to Kstew... A Rant

KNOCK KNOCK

Who's there?
-Apparently not me!-
Sorry.
Sometimes I just don't blog.

But since tomorrow is the beginning of LENT
I need to get this blog out there because...
well I guess you'll find out tomorrow....

 As a Twilight fan, I have an addiction to the Twi-blogs out there...
The bloggers at the forefront of this list are the ladies of LTT & LTR.

LTT has a post called: A healthy debate: Kristen Stewart’s Acting.

I started to leave a comment with my opinion,
and it ended up a novel. 

Therefore, I thought I'd share my "novel" here...
***

As someone who owns In the Land of Woman proudly, worked in a video store for over a year (around the time when Into the Wild came out) and now has been working at a movie theatre for a year and some change I can safely say... I CANNOT STAND KSTEWS ACTING!!! With or without Rob. End.Of.Story.

Rob was on my radar WAY before Twilight. KStew was on my radar starting with *wince* Zathura (since to this day I have never wanted to make my TV commit suicide with Panic Room). I rented (for free when I worked at the video store) Into The Wild and couldn't even finish the DVD... That.Never.Happens.To.Me.

And when even Twilight came out, I didn't have the nonsten passion I have now.

Shortly? after came Adventureland... When Adventureland posters started popping up around work because I get breathy around Ryan Reynolds myself, I was really excited to see it... Let me remind you I work at the movie theatre (I see movies for free)... Ugh. I walked out wanting 2hrs of my life back. I saw it with my favorite lesbian and even SHE said she hardly lusted over Kstew while I lusted over Ryan, and she is into Kstew. Bella, erm, Kstew couldn't act... (to be fair: Rob's Spanish Dalí is very similar to an American Edward.. but Little Ashes was also epically better)

New Moon was a smidgen more tolerable because post-breakup she didn't have to act. She was blah with rare wonderful moments of life and then back to whiney... aka she didn't have to act. =/ And she didn't BRING IT with a heartbreak at the break up scene... The reason I cry everytime is because I have been there and I remember how I felt reading the book. I usually have tears by this scene and don't have to worry about actually looking at her until that wonderful bare chest and beer belly show up...

I love Dakota Fanning. I love what Joan Jett did for females in the music industry... so let me just say THANK ROBWARD that I won't have to spend my own money on it.

Final verdict:
As long as I don't have to spend my own money on it, I will continue to give Kstews MOVIES a chance. And she'll probably let me down until it hits her that she isn't 14 anymore and should probably work at the craft. As far as KSTEW herself: Bloody hell woman take a shower and get off the man I have wet dreams about!

TaylorTot... Am I slowly falling for you!?

It is widely known in the world TwiBubble, that Taylor Lautner was Summits go-to-PR-man/face of Twilight. [Since he is young and eager to please. *cough* thatswhatshesaid *cough*]


And even when NEWS BROKE that you, TaylorTot, were unhappy with just being a piece of hott under-age meat oogled at for your New Moon abs....

...you are still considered the one of the 'Holy Trinity' that is game for anything:


Skip to the last 2mins for AWESOMENESS:

See!? He really is down for anything:

So TaylorTot,
 

After watching you on Conan, I sent out a Tweet about your jawline...
But it was the fact that you could actually DO IT (catch grapes in your mouth that is) was what I found attractive...

Then I saw the Jimmy video from a LTT post...
In which you are confused at the beginning and get so into it at the end...

 Well I got so into watching these snip-its, I ended up tracking down each full interview online...

And I'm beginning to worry that I truly will become a Mrs. Robinson in the future...

You see I have a rule, in my dating realm:
I am 23, therefore, the youngest I can go is 20!

And I only broke this once when I was 20 and he was 16...

...you see!?

I am already a reformed cradle-robber!

And I just can't have you out there rockin' a sweet suit!

or steamy and sexeh in the rain!

So from now on, if ever I feel a swoon coming on...
I shall force myself to look at the following pictures:

Then convince myself that you are still 8 and not 2.5 months from 18!

...

Damn it.

I scrolled back up.

...

Forgive me Father for I have sinned...

Not a New Moon Review [yet!]

Hahaha.

I got the above graphic from a post Twitarted put up.

But it is a warning that this post is entirely about Twilight: New Moon.

Still here? Nice.

At the beginning of November with only 19ish days to go until New Moon, I made my self a promise to stay pure of all Twilight teasers & "leaks" in order to delay gratification...

But then I accidentally opened a tab of the ghetto of the internet world, aka. mySpace and on the front page they where advertising the new Volturi Featurette on the New Moon page.

So as you can imagine it was all downhill from there...

I am a techie geek at heart and I LOVE Behind-The-Scenes goodies!

So after convincing myself it was okay to look at New Moon technical bits, I clicked away. And who would I be if I didn't screen cap most of it!

=]

-SO-

the Volturi coven:

 

 

 

 

 

 

From these caps I feel that the larger the star, the better the screen cap.

I tried, man. I tried. But mySpace time-bar slider thingy is not good for screen capping.

other worthy caps:

The Giver:

[Is it just me or has she lost weight since Twilight]

The Directing DILF:

[o, hai Ash!]

Hottie McHotHot:

*le sigh*

The Reason NM Visually Rocks:

Look up: J.J. Marako on IMDB,

he has worked stunts on over 100 movies!!!

 ...

I only capped this one as proof...

 ...she always looks pained and angsty.

My Grandma always said something along the lines of:

Don't keep angry face on too long

or it will freeze that way.

k, not exactly that but you get the gist.

I feel that KStew has overdone angst

and now her face is basically frozen that way...

Behind-The-Scenes:

As of yesterday,
I have seen New Moon twice!

I just want to say that the Volturi scene was probably one of my favorite of the whole movie! I was so looking forward to see how the Italy scenes were going to be interpreted and I was not let down!

As far as a New Moon Review...

I want to see it one more time before I say anything.

An Actual Day in the Life!

SO, those of you who come to my blog and can read...(I know, RUDE Kat RUDE!)... can see that my blog is called A Day in the Life.

DUDE, I dunno if that is what actually ends up on my blog, but it was the cutest name I could think of then...

HONESTLY, if you actually wanted a day in my life, my Twitter is where it is at. I Tweet a LOT!

AND, if you follow my Twitter, you'll know that (1) my brain works on constantly random ways, (2) my personal life is quite the roller coaster right now and (3) I got a lot done on Monday.

THEREFORE, you are getting my day via Tweet!

The background info you need to know is that Sunday night, as I was driving away from work, my truck, Summer, started to act up and the rest of my night went like this:

Radio power fails, I turn on my hazards, my hazards click at half speed, my engine keeps threatening going idle, all warning lights on dashboard begin blinking at me, I make it off the Bypass to King Soopers' gas, fill my tank, attempt to start car, car battery is died, random girls at gas station let me jump Summer from their car as it is neg 4 outside, my car starts, i keep the radio low and keep all A/C-Heat off, girls drive away, I get back on road to my house, 1/2 way down road my headlights begin to shift in and out, 1/2 from there I lose my headlights and my hazards do not turn on, my roommate is on speaker phone with me in case of full breakdown, my engine keeps threatening going idle again, all warning lights on dashboard blink at me once, I pray out loud to God to just let me make it home, I make it to my street, turn left, make it down street, begin to lose steering power, yank my wheel to bring car in front of house, in front of out at an angle my car dies, I am home.

...So Monday...

[FAIL! After screen capping the above Tweet, I realized I did say Good Morning before...]

"My own life meant little to me today."

heya readers!
welcome to my first [real] post.

if you live anywhere other than under a rock you know
that summit released a new new moon trailer this weekend,
twice.

i read a LOT of blogs and love to stalk it up on twitter,
so i know that some have blogged about this already.
[BusyBeeLauren / MTV / LTT]
-but alas-
i have kept myself away from them until
i could suck it up and take the time out to write my own...

and here it is in case you need to see it again.


♥♥


[i'll pause while you put your heart back into your chest]


:le sigh:
-my favorites are up first-

♥

welcome back alice!
some friends people have already started bitching about her acting,
but i love her... plz be my bfff ashley?


can i say favorite still yet?! *dies a little*
i love the special effects crew for this shot!
and then what it looks like as Bella gets pulled away by Jacob!
the special-features-disc-lover in me can die happy if this bit is on the DVD!



...oh hey volterra...

dear dakota, i approve!
good news! dakota totally pulls off jane.
just like rob, many were not behind her...
but i think after this trailer, twilighters will breathe a little easier.


*shudder* might need to take a security blanket with me at midnight...
i have faith in the acting abilities of michael sheen.
he's got aro, hands down.
[what about the actors who play the other two?]



who is the mystery man?
could this be the flashback of when carlisle is with the volturi?
what do you think?





...the bits that give me grrface...

because stupid shiny black volvo owner doesn't have the same ring to it
edward doesn't need your help in the creeper department summit!
he stalked bella just fine in a silver volvo!
why you gotta be that way?!


*face palm*
"i punched a werewolf in the face." ~bella swan, eclipse, chapter 15, page 342
really, melissa rosenberg really?!




...much improved...

because green is the new white...
...so maybe by eclipse the time comes around they will be yellow...






...made to bring giggles...






...the movie fangirls really want to see...

from the man who brought you the girls gone wild franchise

-and if you order now-Order now! 1.800.plz.bite
