Blog 2.

So I should be working on my english paper comparing Maggie Tulliver to Heidi Holland of The Mill on the Floss and The Heidi Chronicles respectivly. But I want a break to talk about something that bothers me.

Twilight does not equate to literature.

It's cute, and it's entertaining...but thats about it.

The characters are incredibly onesided. Bella...christ...really? Can anyone say "author insertion?" If I had the audacity to create a character like her I would be flamed and harrassed until she was killed off. Mary Sue, hello! Not so pretty girl has all the attention and everyone loves her. Shes always in danger, but always saved in the nick of time but the crazy hot vampire.

Vampire...another thing! Sunlight makes campire either A) combust, B) shrivel up and die, or C) die in some other horrible manner. NOT GLITTER, can anyone say deus ex machina?? Come on way to destroy a vampire's one weakness Stephanie Meyer. Bram Stoker would be rolling in his grave and I don't know about Anne Rice. But I have way more respect for her.

And to all you people that told me I was gay and goth because I liked reading about vampires, fuck you. You're reading these candy ass "novels" and youre so fucking cool. Ok...I'll be done, have a nice day. Much Love, Kirsten

Blog 1.

All right then...my first blog. I don't really expect anyone to read this, but hey I need somewhere to write stuff, so whatever...

There are 10.5 days left for me here in Moorhead, 5.5 days of classes left, and 2 days of finals. I can do this, so I;m not too concerned. Its when I go home, that I'm concerned about. I'm excited and all, of course. I miss my family and my friends, and I'm excited to see them. But there is so much drama I know will be waiting for me.

I thought when I graduated I would leave it all behind and be able to start over here at college. I obviously thought wrong. Everything I left behind will be waiting for me. I'm going to miss all my friends here at school, and I already miss my rugby girls. I'm a better person here, I know it. I'm afraid everything will be fucked for me.

Let's see, what else...well I'm dieting...again. Shock me, shock me, shock me! Let's see if it lasts this time. By the way, its irritating as hell when girls half my size say they are huge...dumb shits. Hmmm...I think I've complained enought for today. Much love Kirsten.
