Stephenie Meyer

Wow.. I got to meet this genius yesterday which was august 25, 2007. She is so cool and hilarious. She is exactly how I imagined her to be.

Before we got there I freaked out a little because it seemed too good to be true but it was NOT canceled and she did come. It was amazing. I will now record my memory of her.

We got really close seats (we sat on the floor) for the discussion part of her coming. She answered questions and talked about twilight the movie and stuff. I loved it. ALL of it. Anyway so here comes the best part. Since we are from san diego and we went to L.A., we didn't have priority wrist bands so we had to wait outside. When she was done talking, everyone who didn't have wristbands started to walk towards the door which was what I did along with catie, veronica, and rosie. I went wearing a t-shirt I made for the occasion and three scars down the right side of my face. I used some lipstick that I hardly used for the scars. Since I have light brown skin and look somewhat native american, I did the scars to dress up as one of the characters from her book named emily. For people who read the book, it was a little obvious who I was trying to be.

So as we were walking out Stephenie Meyer saw me. She pointed at me, smiled and said, "Oh my God, it's Emily!". I waved back and said, "Ya!". I felt like an idiot but I was extremely excited that she said something to me. I loved it. Whhen we got up to her in line she smiled and said, "Hi emily! Or magdalena really." Because they gave us sticky notes to put in the book so she couuld easily personalize them and she saw my name was really magdalena. I said, "Ya, its a little different." SHe laughed and said, "That is so, so awesome..." I said thanks and walked away for veronica's turn.

I don't think I will ever forget that moment of my life. I hope I don't have an obsession on my hands. I mean what would you do if you got to meet your favorite author?

I will most definetly (sp?) go for the tour of Breaking Dawn.

Fred and George Weasley

I would like to say congratulations to Keane (my favorite band) for making Stephenie Meyer's playlist for Eclipse.

You have all heard this a billion times but she wrote Twilight, New Moon, and Eclipse. I will be honest that when you hear that it is about vampires you think it stupid and I completely understand. Really I do. I think Stephenie Meyer thinks so too because she rarely says the word in her books. My cousin, my sister, and I are going to go to her book signing on the 25th. There's a link here to her site on the right.

haha (Behind me my dog is trying to bite flies. Its funny.)

Todays question For everyone who will read this: If you were given one super power what would it be and why?

No cheating. Catie and I were talking about this yesterday. I chose flying for too many reasons.

So...My favorite HP characters are Fred an George Weasley. I really do love their humor. Its an inspiration. There are none from the 7th book.


"You don't want to bottle your anger up like that, Harry, let it all out," said Fred, beaming. "There might be a couple people fifty miles away who didn't hear you."

"Harry!" said Fred, elbowing Percy out of the way and bowing deeply. "Simply splendid to see you, old boy--"
"Marvelous," said George, pushing Fred aside and seizing Harry's hand in turn. "Absolutely spiffing."
Percy scowled.
"That's enough, now," said Mrs. Weasley.
"Mum!" said Fred as though he'd only just spotted her and seizing her hand too. "How really corking to see you--"

'What's that supposed to be anyway?' asked Fred, squinting at Dobby's painting. 'Looks like a gibbon with two black eyes.'
'It's Harry!' said George, pointing at the back of the picture, 'says so on the back!'
'Good likeness,' said Fred, grinning.

Harry is rumoured to be the Heir of Slytherin: Fred and George, however, found all this very funny. They went out of their way to march ahead of Harry down the corridors, shouting, 'Make way for the heir of Slytherin, seriously evil wizard coming through …'
Percy was deeply disapproving of this behaviour.
'It is not a laughing matter,' he said coldly.
'Oh, get out of the way, Percy,' said Fred, 'Harry's in a hurry.'
'Yeah, he's nipping off to the Chamber of Secrets for a cup of tea with his fanged servant,' said George, chortling.

haha... I'm sitting here alone and I am still laughing out loud. They are greatness.
I have a Ron one for cat and a hagrid one for marissa.

"Viktor? Hasn't he asked you to call him Vicky yet?" - Ron

"Ah, well, people can be stupid abou' their pets," said Hagrid wisely. Buckbeak spat a few ferret bones onto Hagrid's pillow.

Have a good wednesday everyone.

Boo!

I have been saying that a lot for some reason. I have also been saying 'crackhead' a lot recently. I'm pretty sure i got that from caitlin but how, i am not sure because I hadn't started using it since the middle of the summer and I have only seen cat twice since graduation. :( And apparently you went somewhere. hmm.... hey!! and If i don't see you this month :( then hopefully you'll comeover for my birthday at least.

And one of those two times was when I took dominic to the boardwalk and he chose that padres bear. (the bear i was talking about.) He still has it and watches over it. What a cornball.

I recently started playing HP and the chamber of secrets on my PC. Most entertaining. (missa, I still haven't beaten voldi in the first one :( ) .....those Gnomes are hilarious.

Hey marissa.....do you think we could go to safora's before you leave? I think I would feel like an idiot going by myself. (p.s. sign my yearbook. :P )

Hey sarge, wooow that did clear up a lot of things. Extremely fascinating though. I am going to make a CD called Sarge Selection, and put all of the songs you have told me about on it. I am extremely excited. :D

Dear Sucker fish,
Catie recently informed me that you are supposed to grow to a certain amount of feet. I hope not because we don't have room for you. I hope Catie was greatly mistaken. You are indeed growing bigger and faster than any of the gold fish. We need you to stop growing. That's enough. You are bringing upon your own doom by getting bigger. So stop. In the meantime I will go back to walmart to ask them how big you are supposed to get.


bye everyone...

p.s. This anxiety or nervousness about starting at a new school isn't new but unwelcome. So many times I have had to change schools and make new friends. Not that easy for me but I'll try....
