"About three things I was absolutely positive: First, Edward was a vampire. Second, there was a part of him - and I didnt know how dominant that part might be - that thirsted for my blood. And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him"
- Twilight
Two weeks ago I was walking around a Barnes and Noble, Mint Mocha Frappuchino in hand, and came upon a huge table displaying books from the Twilight series. A series about vampires? In the teen section? Dosnt sound too promising. I thought Id go ahead and buy the first book since the back proclaimed "An Amazon 'Best Book of the Decade'. Needless to say, I got home, and devoured the book - what a great read! It dosnt get creepy or silly like I thought it would, just a simple love story that is well... not too simple. Im on the 2nd book and enjoying every page.

Looking for a place to live?
Just found an incredible site at the recommendation of an old friend. Introducing Kexter - its what happens when you combine Craigslist and Google Maps! Search by number of rooms, and Kexter will pull up a map of available housing colored by weekly rent! This is genius for those of you moving to a new place.
Transport For London
After enjoying the "Awareness Test" (featured below) I searched for some more Transport for London adverts; since they are so clever! Enjoy this nice little piece.
