Edvent Calendar - Day Two

Edward in his peacoat, having Christmas dinner.

Twilight Drinking Game: Commentary

Guess what folks, its the weekend! And I know what you're thinking. You're thinking, "Emilie is going to see Jackson rock out in Vancouver, and we're just gonna have to sit here and be sad!"

Oh, don't worry my friends, I have a solution! Have you ever watched the Twilight Commentary? No? Not so much? Good, because it is much more enjoyable when accompanied with rules and alcohol. And what better way to pass the time while I'm rocking out, than to drink and watch Twilight? You might have to stretch it out over the whole weekend in order to avoid alcohol poisoning.

Twilight Drinking Game: With Commentary

A Drink for...

-Every time Catherine Hardwicke hits on RP

-References to Pacific Northwest Weather, "Those people of the NW", etc.
- Every time they say Vitamin R
-Every time Robert Pattinson giggles (we're looking for the full on, squeaky gasp giggle here, not just the old one two hehe.)
-References to Edward's Bouffant, Eyebrows.
-When Robert Pattinson questions Twilight plot

Bottoms up for
-That's my t-shirt
-Ren and Stimpy reference
-"I'd like to fit in a box" comment

If you are already drunk by the time you get to that's my t-shirt, you should probably just stop. Easy Jasperillas are delicious for this game, but I would recommend a higher ratio of root beer to whiskey... I speak from experience. Or, just stick to beer if you want to try to make it through the whole thing. Might I suggest... Vitamin R? Thats one drink y'all!

Bottoms up Rob... bottoms up

Sleep is [not] for Suckers

There are probably 20,000 other posts I could be writing right now, but I am too tired to pen something witty about vampire sparkley bits. If you had to be me, you would say, "Holy Crow!' And then stab yourself in the face and hope a vampire comes to make you pretty...

Make me pretty!

Some of you may already know this, but I am one of those people. You know, the ones who don't quite operate along the same lines as the rest of the universe.

I will take full responsibility for leaving the lights in my truck on. But when I actively tried to fix the situation, was it my fault that my battery couldn't be charged with the basic car to car jump? Was it my fault that the police pulled up within seconds of Steve double parking on a 3 lane one way street? Was it my fault that my phone died before I could call roadside assistance?

Was it my fault that the box I used to prop open the door at work was too light?

Was it my fault that mall security didn't have a master key to let me back into the bakery?

I might be cursed, but at least the universe likes me enough to send a handful of competent people my way to help me out of my predicaments. But--

Oh, Hi Edward. I forget that you like to sneak up on people sometimes... What was that? No, no. I don't need you in all of my posts. GOSH. But still... [cue swelling orchestral music]

It might be nice

to have

someone like you

around

It might be nice

to be like you

When the sun goes down

I am young

But old enough to make

mistakes

I am fortunes fool

Pirite bright ahead

lights my path

Disaster is my wake

When the sun goes down

I have tried

many sleepless nights

to find a way

to change

Maybe I

should try to find a way

to stay

the same

When the sun goes down

eye to eye
let's make a trade
take your time
when you take my time
away

When the sun goes down

I would like, to know, what it is, that makes it sparkle

when the sun goes down

Blood Pun

A human walks up to a vampire.
Human: I'm having a bad day. Got any advice?
Vampire: Hey! Be Positive!

Get it? eh? EH?

If you chose mostly a: You are Victoria

-you know what you want, and you know how to get it. You like to stay on the move, and you don't care much for fitting in. You act on impulse and don't have time to be bothered with the consequences! Life may not be short, but you prefer to keep in the fast lane all the same.

If you chose mostly b: You are Rosalie

- You are a strong, confident individual. You have been known to hold grudges, which makes you difficult to be around at times. But you don't care what other people think of you, because you know you are the best. At everything. All the time

If you chose mostly c: you are Edward

- You are a strong confident individual... in public. But those that know you are quite aware of your many insecurities. Your quiet manner makes you appear haughty, but when in the company of close friends or family, you are known to be pleasant -- like a dry martini. You often wish for a more carefree existence, but are caught up on rules that cause much anxiety, and result in many a buzzkill. You mope a lot. You would probably be happier if you could spend more time in the Sun. 

If you chose mostly d: You are Marcus

-You are an old soul. An old, bored soul. 

If you chose mostly e: You are Kate

-You are a well balanced vampire! You've had your days, of course, when it seemed that the sun would never set, but now that you've got your way of life figured out, you are going to enjoy it! You are quick to spread joy, and slow to anger (as it has painful consequences to those you love), but also don't hesitate to dole it out if it is needed. 

If you chose mostly f: You are Emmett

-You are ready for pretty much anything. Sticks and stones can't break your bones, and words are pretty boring. You are a loyal friend, and though you may not always understand the decisions of the people closest to you, you will always have their back. Your strengths are best manifested in physical activities... and that last sentence probably made you snicker. 

If you chose mostly g: You are Alice

-Your special mind powers have given you a depth of understanding that many who are much older than you will never achieve. Your weirdness is endearing, and makes you fun to be around, especially in a world that appears dull and static to your kind. Always the life behind the party, you try to brighten the world around you, though sometimes, sometimes you take advantage of your abilities, to manipulate people into the palm of your hand. You are known to laugh maniacally, to yourself. 

If you chose mostly h: You are Jasper

-You grew up fast, you grew up hard! You have honed your instincts, and they are usually right. You are a natural leader, but don't mind taking the backseat -- no fights for alpha male here! Your charisma makes it easy for you to make friends, but you prefer to keep the inner circle a small one. By surrounding yourself with others of strong character, you can be sure to engage in some scuffles here and there, but this only increases respect on both ends. 

So, which vampire are you? 

It's Rhetorical: Red Eye?

When Edward sucks the venom out of Bella's arm, do his eyes turn red? Or do they just turn orange, because he only had a sip of her blood? How much blood does it take?

Think Twice - Drink Responsibly

Vegetarians Indeed

So, if herbivores like deer don't smell as good to vampires as meat-eating mountain lions (who "smell more like humans"), then would Bella smell less tasty to Edward if she was a vegetarian?

Jasper's Song

(chorus)
I twitch I seethe

try not to breathe

resist hunger

resist barely

V1
Human Standing over there
Shifting now it stirs the air
I dare it to meet my stare
Human walks by unaware

Chorus
V2
I try not to contemplate
something bland sticks to my plate
but I dream of another taste
tempting me and tempting fate

Chorus
V3
stupid humans miss the signs
muscles tense my eyes go wide
you won't have time to run and hide
won't have time to scream or cry

Chorus
V4
I trace scars along my arms
reminding me of southern charm
reminding me of family
and why I chose humanity


I twitch I seethe

try not to breathe

resist hunger

resist barely

I won't bite no I won't drink
Really I'm OK I think
