Final exam period kicked off last week, with a much-needed week off from school (kind of). It wasn't well-deserved though, considering the fact that I procrastinated more than I worked this semester. I had a management final which I'm pretty sure I didn't pass with flying colors--far from it, actually. Even though I'm taking this P/NP, I'm worried. But then again, I'm always worried, always worrying. Even the new friends I've made while here have noticed that about me within a short amount of time.
This weekend, I was not productive in the least. I tend to gravitate towards time-wasting pastimes that are difficult to pull away from. This time I decided to get sucked into the world of Twilight. I've never been one to give in to really intense hype, because I don't like getting my hopes up only to be disappointed. But god, this Robert Pattinson guy dazzled me (did you Twilight readers catch that reference?!).

I went into the movie with low expectations, and somehow it managed to disappoint me even more than I expected. Not understanding how this movie could generate so much excitement and so much money within the first twenty minutes of its opening, I read the book. I spent ALL of yesterday reading ALL of Twilight. Let me tell ya, I am a girl obsessed, but I don't know why. The author can barely be considered a real writer; there are so many flaws in this book. But I can't stop reading, it's like I'm being brainwashed. This blog post is brilliant and pretty much spells out everything that's wrong with the first book.

This is definitely going to reflect in my fall semester grades.......
