Another Twilight fan! I was worried I'd be the only one to cop to that ;) I'm kind of obsessed. Although I have to admit it made me feel really old when I realized most of the cast is younger than I am. Remember when you watched movies and the stars were always a little bit older than you? Now popular movies with young people star people younger than us. It's scary!

What kind of artwork do you make?

[larapatrick.livejournal.com]

I remember those times. Now everyone is younger. Makes ya feel old doesn't it? LOL! As for artwork: I try to make banners, wallpapers, icons, etc. even though I haven't in like over a year, LOL! So it's like being a beginner all over again to me. But I'm trying my hand in it again. And I love Twilight! I would say I'm obsessed as well :)

i like your answer for how you identify. good to know i'm not the only one that clued in a bit later than the rest. i should have known really, i remember thinking that she-ra was really, really pretty. lol.

yay, another older twilight fan! i can't wait for eclipse on tuesday. i have my jasper shirt and werewolf high heels, and i bought my ticket for the midnight showing about a month ago. *slightly ashamed* however, my saving grace is that i'm not one of those old twilight moms that are going to see it with their teenage daughters. ;-)

before that i was really into harry potter.

i like your taste in music. i'll listen to anything but hip-hop and death metal, really. recently i've gotten into music with a jazz/blues-y sound. joss stone, fiona apple, matchbox 20, ect.. (a bit behind the times, i know, but it's not really their 'popular' songs that i really like.)

what is it that you wright?

"yay, another older twilight fan! i can't wait for eclipse on tuesday. "

Wait, WHAT! I thought there was another two months?! *groans and slumps in her chair* Damn, this course has so eaten my brain that I completely lost track of time apparently... Oi... *plans a trip to the theater now...*

(I need to join this comm officially and stop lurking. I'm throwing my hand in for the "Yay older twilight fans" ^^)

stainedfeathers: I'm glad I'm not only older twilight fan. I do say stop lurking. I didn't think I would meet people. But we're talking lol. So join! :)

lilliephoenix: 've just recently come to the conclusion that I was. I guess it took me that long to figure out that guys weren't just my thing women are as well.

As for twilight, I can't wait to see Eclipse, but I have to wait till payday Friday to go see :( Oh well. That's what I get with bills. LOL! I love Harry Potter still I just gotten older and moved on, LOL!

I don't care for hip-hop much. As for metal I like a little Cradle of Filth and Atreyu, but that's really much it. I've come to like classical more and more as I get older. I also like some jazz not much.

As for writing depends on my mood and what I can write. I write a lot of fan fiction even though I haven't written some in a while. I'm also trying my hand in original stuff. Just wherever my imagination takes me. I write from fluffy romance to down right gruesome stuff lol.

i'm such a fanfic junkie! it's such a guilty pleasure, but it's my number one hobby. my hubby tells me all the time to go read a real book. i've tried to explain that i enjoy it because i already know the world and the characters, but he doesn't get the appeal. i just tell him to go play video games, because i don't get them.

i primarily read slash. draco/harry is my OTP, but i find myself reading het from time to time. jasper/bella is my twilight OTP.

[larapatrick.livejournal.com]

lilliephoenix: I'm a fan fic junkie too. I tend to read het and femslash more than guy slash, but I do read some of that as well from time to time. As for Harry Potter fan fic I tend to read Hermione/snape, harry/ginny, sirius/oc, etc. And I don't read much twilight. Depends on my mood, lol. Husbands just don't understand us women, lol! So how long have you been a Twilight/Harry Potter fan?

[lilliephoenix.livejournal.com]

i've been a HP fan since '03. i was a newly-married, bored housewife at the time and my hubby, who is always trying to pawn his geeky-ness off on me, told me to read it. i read the first 4 books in two months, watched all of the movies that come out by that point, then begged him to buy me the just-released OOTP. i think he took me to see one of the movies for my birthday one year, and i distinctly remember getting a cloak and wand for my 21st birthday. lol. (i've been a witch for halloween every year since to justify that purchase.) snape, draco, and bellatrix are my fave characters. i'm definitely pro-slytherin.

i got into twilight just last october. a friend in my children's playgroup kept going on and on about it. i've always loved vampires, and when i heard that there was a movie coming out with 'cedric from harry potter' as the lead, i had to give it a shot. i read all of the books in three weeks. (yes, even slugged through breaking dawn. :-( horrible book! i was so disappointed.) my hubby took me to see twilight as a belated birthday present. he didn't groan, or roll his eyes, or mock it at all... until we got to dinner, then we spent an hour making fun of the cheesy, low budget special effects and make-up, and bad acting. i tried to justify that the book was much better... lol. my friends enable my guilty pleasures, though and by the time new moon rolled around, i was pretty much obsessed. i can't wait for leah. and jasper in a military uniform, yummy! he's my favorite.

how did you get into them/who are your favorite characters?

[larapatrick.livejournal.com]

lilliephoenix: I've been a HP fan since about 2003. The same is you. My older sister told me about 'em and I started reading with the help of the audio. I read the first 4 within 3 months i think. Something like that. I bought the sixth and seventh book when they came out. I saw the movies too which I love. My favorite characters in the series are: Snape, Bellatrix, Draco, and Lucius. Love the Slytherins. YUMMY! LOL!

As for Twilight, I started reading the first movie right after seeing the first movie. I saw the first movie 7 times and the second like 4. I wish I was at the midnight showing tonight, but I won't be there. Didn't have the money to go. I just finished the fourth book not to long ago. My favorite characters are Bella, Edward, Carlisle, Jasper, and James. :) I love the series.

If you want to email me privately just message me through my livejournal and I'll send you my email, so we can chat more. :)

You sound really interesting & I would love to get you know you better. It's nice to see someone closer to my age on here as well! (I'm 30.) I think we like a lot of the same things. Would love to connect.

I love the spelling of your name ... being a fellow Crystal and all :)
