Eclipse

So this week I went to my first movie alone. I caught Eclipse, from the Twilight Saga. Don't hate - I regretfully admit I loved those books, and get excited for each new movie release. It was the best so far, with a new director that made it more passionate than cheesy. Thumbs up.

But this movie experience was more than just letting my inner pre-teen emotions surge - I have always wanted to go to a movie by myself, but have always talked myself out of it. Earlier in the day, I was feeling down, because the only reason I was going alone is because I don't have a close friend up here that I could go with. I would have preferred to go with a friend, so we could delight in Jacob's abs and swoon over Edward's [finally] passionate kisses, together.

In the end, I really enjoyed myself, though. I snuck in my own water and snacks (as usual), and got lost in the movie, forgetting for a while that I was even alone. If I find a movie that I want to see without Caleb again, I'll definitely go alone... I've overcome my fear.

However, for the next Twilight move, Breaking Dawn, I definitely need to go with a girlfriend - there will finally be some SEX! Through all these movies I feel like a suppressed teenager, and I'm way past that. I think all of my Twlight-loving friends would agree - we're ready for some action. :)
