When I was living in Brisbane (many many years ago) I lived by the belief that if someone wanted to do something that was their choice. If people wanted to smoke, drink or watch Star Trek Voyager at 2am, that was noone of my business.

Smoking is done in the privacy of their own homes, people did not drink on the public transportation and my bedroom was closest to the television so I was not bothering anyone with my late night viewing habits.
But living in Sydney I am starting to change the way I thinkn about people. No longer is there a 'live and let die' mentality because I am not a passive smoker, I am a non-consentual smoker. The people of Sydney are killing me, slowly and with terrible things that the government makes into anti-smoking adverts.
So no more, I will not let the decisions be made for me, I will not be a passive smoker.
I will take the fight to them.

The thing I like about reading is that noone has taken your idea of what should be and replaced it with a group of crack addicts who lack a back story.
At least this is how I feel about Twilight. I loved the books (ok, not quite as much as I loved the City of Bones/City go Ashes /City of Glass) but the movie left a lot to be desired. For a start some character development, and a cast that is not made to look like crack addicts searching for a role in a porno.
I couldn't bellieve that my two favorite characters were all but eliminated. Alice is barely mentioned and Jasper is only mentioned in passins as 'always looking like he is in pain'. There were several important moments that were missed out, such as Bella saying the same thing to her Father as her mother did when she left.
With that in mind here is my casting choises for a Twilight that incorparates some talent and story development:

(My Revised) Cast List

Edward Cullen - Jason Dohring
Bella Swan - Eliza Dushku
Alice Cullen -Kirsten Dunst
Jasper Hale -Ryan Kwanten
Dr. Carlisle Cullen - Neil Patrick Harris
Esme Cullen - Charisma Carpenter
Rosalie Hale - Emma Caulfield
Emmet Cullen - Teddy Dunn
Charlie Swan - Chuck Norris

It has come to my attention that I have
not been blogging of late.
So here are a few highlights of my
past few weeks.

~foot blood!~
I discovered blood all over my foot on
the way to work. I cleaned it up but
didn't have a bandaid with me so
there was much more foot blood
on the train.
A creepy kid with cuts all up
his arms kept staring at it.
Musch like a Vampire would.
Then I got a tetnus shot,
I can step on rusty nails for another
10 years without fear.

~Romantic Bear~
No, I did not recieve a romantic bear,
I just took a picture because I wanted one.
They were so soft, and led me to get
my phone fixed.
Also leading me to work out the
bluetooth connections to grab these pictures
off my phone.


More to come: Pac-Man and the Phallus with eyes.
