Two things!

2. WHY DO SO MANY OF MY FRIENDS LIKE TWILIGHT??
I know it's important to talk about the creepy and unnerving concepts of Twilight so that an awareness can be stirred up, but I'm almost reluctant to do it myself. It's just another chance for people to think, "oh there goes Nikki again..." My best friend's birthday party is on Saturday, and I have a bad feeling about it. I'm almost certain it's going to come up, and when it does, do I:
-- Talk about the issues that have been brought to my attention - issues that I believe to be important - or do I
-- Let them talk and believe that Twilight is harmless fluff that doesn't do any damage to the development of young and older women?
Working in market research has taught me how to question, and I guess I've started compartmentalizing my life into questions like this.
Anyway, we'll see how it goes. Off to Video class now. I'm editing my Final video today, so it should be fun!
