Twilight
When I was in high school, I read all of the books like five times. I own book one, two and four. When I saw the first movie, I started to hate Twilight simply because vampires don't sparkle. And in the books they talk about it one or two times and it doesn't seem so . . . gay. In the movies it makes you face palm or laugh or both. When Josh and I first got together he called me his Bella. He would always say how I am just like her. I'm clumsy, had a piece of crap truck, don't listen to anyone, stubborn as hell, and one of his favorites, I'm short. In return I'd call him my Edward. He has always been pale enough. I always looked at it as something cute. We both loved Twilight at the time. I just finished watching all of the movies. I own the first one. My point is, I never really realized how much Josh and I are like Edward and Bella. I don't say that because I want that kind of love story or anything. I say that because as I was watching and analyzing the movie, I was comparing it to my life. I tend to do that sometimes. But I came to the realization that my life is a little like Bella's . . . minus the vampires and werewolfs. Okay. In the books and movies, Bella is in love with two guys, Edward and Jacob. She has a hard time choosing who she loves more and Jacob tells her that he will always love her, even after her heart stops beating he will continue to try for her. Of course in the end she chooses Edward. In my life, I'm Bella, Josh is Edward, and Randall is Jacob. I love them both and don't want to hurt either one of them. I would be crushed if either of them were to die or get hurt. But in the end, I choose Josh. Of course I don't have the craziness of Bella's life but Josh and Randall do hate each other just as Edward and Jacob hate each other. Both of them would do anything to protect me just as Edward and Jacob would do anything to protect Bella. It's weird but it kind of makes me smile knowing that I have two guys that love me and would do anything for me. They just want me to be happy.
