Okay, so, for those of you who do not know about Breaking Dawn (you're insane if you haven't heard of it's release by now), it's the fourth book in the Twilight series (Twilight, New Moon, Eclipse, and the finale Breaking Dawn.)
Today at Barnes and Noble was the release party. It went from ten pm to about 1am. I went with Leah and we met up with Sam and Megan (old lead singer, and an awesome friend.) Might I add that it was extremely crowded? I'm okay with crowds, usually. But, even for a store that big, people swamped the place. xD I wore my corset-like top I got from Hot Topic. I remember thinking when I was putting it on: "Will I stand out in this? Not like a I care but..." Then I considered the fact that they were all Twilight fans and decided there would be lots of people dressing oddly and cosplaying, which was true. That only made the party even more cool.
Most of the time I hid in the manga section while Leah, Sam and Megan ran around. I made a new friend who will be going to the same school has Leah and I, and be in the same program, so that was cool. I talked with her about Yaoi mangas (she's definitely not a major-manga reader) and I'm not sure about her reaction. She didn't seem to like the idea of gayness, which is kind of a problem if she's going to hang out with us homo-friendly at school. xD
Anyway, while she and I were in line getting our face painted, Leah and the others ran over to play pictionary. I should have joined them; I kick ass a pictionary most of the time. xD They eventually quit the game, though, and joined us in the line. I got Rosalie painted on my cheek, with a rose underneath it. Leah got Jasper and a heart, Sam got Alice and a heart, and Megan got Jacob with a heart too. =D


We went upstairs for a bit after that, and hung around in the manga section. Then the book release happened. We got stuck going down the escalator because the bottom of it was crowded with people. It was pretty scary being tripped off the escalator and sent flying into a crowd filled with people. They actually had to stop the escalator for a bit so they could clear a path. xD
Once they started releasing the books, I left Sam and Leah. A crowd filled with around a thousand people screaming and jumping around
I found Loveless (a yaoi-ish manga series) and read that until the crowds cleared and it was safe to go back down to Leah and Sam. xD isn't for me; not unless it's a concert. Haha
Oh-another thing about tonight. I was really smart and had a Starbucks coffee at like one in the morning while waiting for everyone to get their books. Normally it takes six to eight hours for caffeine or sugar to kick it, but I'm realllyy hyper now. xD
For those that missed it, I'm sorry. It wasn't super special, if you ask me, but it was fun.
Let's see, other than that, the only thing that happened today was my dad being a dork. A cool dork, but he's still a dork. xD
He was playing on Ebay, ordering some cell phone for my sister. Every time he out-bidded something he acted all Kon-fu mastery. It was hilarious, especially when he'd go running to the computer to see if he was out-bidded again. xD I love how funny he is; he's such a cool dad.
He also didn't like the idea of me out being so late (even though I'd be a in a safe, very crowded place), so he taught me some judo/karate, whatever the hell he's a black belt in, moves for defense. It was fun learning, even though he got serious and one point when he was teaching me about knocking a knife out someones hand. When he did the move on me, he did it a little too hard by accident. My wrist hurt for a tiny bit after that. x3 Oh well, now I have some new defense moves to practice. =D
That's all for now. :]

As you say in your profile, I don't like labelers. It's a lazy way of thinking you know all about somebody. I should explain, I found your blog site when looking for people who like to read fantasy. If you want to visit my blog and know who this is contacting you, it is http://threeswans.blogspot.com I was wanting to say, if you like fantasy can I suggest a title to try? "Outcasts Of Skagaray" was a book I wrote because I felt strongly about the abandoned children of the world. If you want to preview it, there are sample chapters on www.threeswans.com.au I would love it if you read and enjoyed it; whatever happens, best wishes.
Thanks for your comment. It's good to hear, and an interesting slant on things. And I wish you well with your artistic ambitions. All the best.
