New Twilight Prospectives from an Old Twihard

http://www.m-magazine.com/posts/your-daily-11-20-am-new-moon-fact-14485

It has been 11 years since "Twilight" was released, but for those who read the books obsessively, cried over the movies and felt as if their childhood ended when the movies did, it is really hard to believe. For some “twi-hards”, the story of Bella and Edward was everything. It was our favorite book, movie, and OTP. Looking back at that eighth grade girl who loved going on Facebook and posting “OME” (oh my Edward) after everything and making her mother sleep on a sidewalk to meet one of the Volturi , I hang my head in shame. Shame that I let those books control my life and I bet there are more like me. After recently watching the movies I have a new prospective on everything...including my life.

1. Twilight was not a good movie. None of them were.

2. Why does Edward have to sparkle?

3. Bella really never stuck up for herself.

4. Twilight taught me what I don't want in a boyfriend.

5. Jacob was probably the better choice in the long run.

6. Renesmee is a weird name.

7. Edward walking out of the Volturi is over dramatic.

8. So is the skipping of the months in New Moon.

9. Actually all of New Moon is over dramatic.

10. All the Twilight t-shirts that are in my drawer are never allowed to be seen again.

11. That includes my Edward Cullen cutout.

12. I realized Twilight brought me great friends.

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.

Blair Waldorf: Your Spirit Animal

Who wouldn't wanna be Queen B?

The "Gossip Girl" series may be over, but Blair Waldorf's iconic character lives in our hearts forever. Blair was the queen of the Upper East Side, and a character you either loved or hated. She taught us everything we needed to know about life, love and of course, how to score a Chuck Bass. So the next time you feel a bit lost and are in need of guidance, look no further than to the Queen B herself.

As I spend my Sunday avoiding my homework and other adult responsibilities, I realized that I've watched this series over and over about a million times. Sadly, there isn't a Blair quote I don't know, so I came up with a list of a few favorites. You know you love her...xoxo
