I am telling you November 4th was a magical day. Not only did my vote count and Barack Obama took over as president, I got to interview every girl’s dream man:
Edward Cullen.
Ok, so maybe that is only a big deal for teenage girls and gay men, but lately I’ve gotten reacquainted with my young adult side. With the wide spread popularity of Stephenie Meyer’s book Series “Twilight” getting passed around my peers and the comeback of 90210 (yes I watch it, sigh) I have def been embracing young adult entertainment. It’s hard not to. It’s a great escape to go back to those tender teenage years, when everything was so simple and so new. Having crushes, first kisses and falling in love were all so intense. It’s just plain fun to relive actually. So, when I kept hearing all the hub-bub about this book Twilight from my 30-year-old friends, I figured I should check it out.
It’s a fantasy story obviously – a high school girl falls in love with an extremely hot vampire, who essentially could kill her. Talk about going for the bad guys huh? This book gives that ideology a whole new meaning. As far-fetched as the whole storyline sounds you can’t help but fall in love with it, because it takes you through all the motions of just that – falling in love. As you see Bella and Edward interact it brings you butterflies. Turns out Edward Cullen is every girl’s dream man and dream experience. For anyone who forgot what it feels like to have that feeling, Edward will bring it back and that my amigos, is what the big deal is.
When I got the opportunity to interview Mr. Dreamy Robert Pattinson (AKA Edward Cullen in the movie adaptation) I was as giddy as a school girl (as were my friends). I mean seriously, who can resist a cute foreigner with a British accent??? Check out what the man behind the phenomena had to say here on Blogamole.
