Love Triangles

You know sometimes there is this thing authors and writers like to make to, spice the stories up. It's my absolute favorite thing to be able to say "PLOT TWIST," but sometimes there make me angry. Most of the plot twist I have come to know are those little love triangles. Who doesn't love a little drama?
Seriously in many of the books I read, shows I watch,  movies that are pretty hot and even in real life love triangles are pretty much everywhere. Those Twilight fans who were all "team Edward" and " Team Jacob" and I'm just team can you not.  I'm not going to lie when I first read Twilight I was into it, into it enough to throw my book against the wall. But I was never really for a character. Of course when the movies came out people were going to pick the hotter guy, or the character they loved the most. Even in The Hunger Games people picked a team. Of course in the end Katniss picked the right guy and I was happy. It sucks when a character picks the wrong guy, or girl. It makes you so angry because it's like everything you hoped and wished for, fell through the cracks. Everyone was so mad when Katniss didn't pick Gale and I was all happy and giggling to myself, like that's right snitches I won this time. Granted I'm really weird so I actually did do that.

Did you ever watch the show THE NINE LIVES OF CHLOE KING, you know that ABC family show that got canceled after the first season? If so you already know that love triangle. I was so pissed when it got cancelled too. I finally had the time to read that released script of the never made movie. Talk about closure. I was finally able to smile and I was inspired to write like a movie/ television script. Of course I still want to write books but that script looked so simple. And guess what Chloe picked the right guy. If you have any idea of what I'm talking about check out the link: :The Nine Lives of Chloe King final script , if not carry on.  I won't say who she picks though you have to read it.

The one love triangle thing I currently hate is the one from The Vampire Diaries. Elena fell in love with the wrong guy. I'm one of those people that really liked Stefan and thought he was the perfect guy. I know people  who are like that with Damon. But I currently think Elena is stupid and on drugs, that's probably a mean thing to say but yeah, my current thoughts. But another CW show, Reign has a beautiful love triangle. Like this show is going to be all drama and it makes history and I quote "sexy". Mary has to do a lot for her country but will her heart get in the way? I mean both of the guys in her life are pretty attractive but which would you choose or even consider being with?

It's all a matter of perspective i guess. Besides the love triangle isn't officially going, things are just you know alluded to. It's funny because there are a lot more shows too that teens are into that have theses triangles. Like Teen Wolf, and Awkward, heck even Glee had them.

As for real life love triangles, there are probably millions. I could talk about people that I know and their relationships or the people that I like, but it doesn't really matter. Those who need to know, know.

The Kissing booth...

        Reputations, rumors, fights, romance, high school, and a first kiss.For some people the have their first kiss in like elementary school and it's no big deal because boys and girls have cooties and it wasn't serious anyways. For others it's that first relationship in junior high where both the boy and the girl are shy and it's going to suck no matter what because it's just awkward and neither of you know what you are doing. Or maybe that's just what I've read in books but then again, they were talking about sex so... Sorry if that doesn't apply to your experiences. It's sometimes very rare to come across someone in HIGH SCHOOL who hasn't had their first kiss yet. If their friends are jerks they probably get made fun of, " what you've never kissed anyone?", "my god you need to get laid", and "you are missing out", sure none of that's demeaning or depressing but it gets annoying. Talking from experience by the way, because I'm just lame like that.

      So what do you do when you haven't had your first kiss and one of your friends need you to fill their spot in a kissing booth? You read the book "The Kissing Booth", by Beth Reekles to find out. I'm kind of kidding but seriously you should read the book. It's got an awesome love triangle in it too. For the main character it's all about choosing the right guy and sometimes choosing between your best friend and a guy that makes you feel even more special than your friend does is hard. All the drama, it all starts from one kiss. Well the feelings were there before the kiss but yeah, the kiss started it all. I think I laughed through a lot of this book because it was funny and exciting and totally awkward all at the same time. My mom often asks me what book I'm reading so that she can 'bond' and 'talk about it' with me, but I read the strangest books and she reads to slow so that doesn't really work out. This book was really good and I would recommend it to anyone and it was written by a seventeen year old girl so props to her. But imagine watching some awkward sex scene on Vampire Diaries or The Secret life and having your grandma walk in. It's just very uncomfortable.

     So yeah, read the book because  you'll enjoy it.

Um Twilight...?

If you are a dedicated 'Twihard', I'm about to blow your mind, make you angry, and raise your standards all in one post, but not necessarily in that order. I'm not going to lie I may have joined that Twilight bandwagon back in junior high, but I really wasn't into the books at all. I really wasn't a fan of the movie either. The books to me, no offense to Stephenie  Meyer, really didn't give me a long lasting impression nor did I find myself really into picking "Team Jacob" or "Team Edward". I will admit one thing though, I love when books become movies, especially when it's a really good book. It gives you an idea on how the image in your head of how you see the book can be the same as someone else.

 

I'm sorry, but I thought  that the "I feel very protective of you" comment was just creepy, rather than romantic. Maybe that's just me.  Back when Vampire books were all the rage, I came across one that changed my life forever...

Vampire Academy

Have you heard about the new movie coming out called Vampire Academy: Blood Sisters? Well it's based off the book with the same title and it's by Richelle Mead. I started reading the books I think in seventh, maybe eighth grade, but believe me this series is a really good read. Not everybody can write a really good vampire story and make it sound like something more original than vampires are afraid of the light. These books introduce you to a new take on vampires. The series consists of six amazingly written books in the point of view from Rose Hathaway, a Dhampir. The spin off series which, in my opinion, is even better is called Bloodlines and it follows an alchemist named Sydney Sage.I have read three of the spin off series and am really impressed but also depressed because the fourth book doesn't come out until November.  Now I really can't talk about each book individually because that would be a giant spoiler. These may or may not be fast reads for you, if you really want to know whats  happens and are a good reader, chances are you'll be done very soon with the series. I will give you a run down of some of the things you'll be introduced to in these books. 

Vampire lingo

1. Moroi: Good vampires that don't like to harm human beings. In the magic realm, they are pretty much the most important people and are protected by dhampirs. They have the ability to possess magic powers such as, water, earth, fire,and spirit. 
2. Spirit: One of the most conflicting things for a vampire to control power of. Causes the controller to often go crazy and many people fear it. 
3. Strigoi: The bad vampires. Anyone can be turned into them. Humans, Dhampirs, and Moroi, can willingly change into a Strogoi and are basically at that point immoral. As you read the series, it becomes discovered that they can be changed back,  by a spirit user. 
4. Dhampirs: In Vampire Academy, the main character is a Dhampir. They are a hybrid race of human and vampire. They are more human because they don't have the characteristics of a Moroi. They are raised to become gaurdians of the Moroi. They are trained to fight and protect and if they have to, kill Strigoi. Dhampirs who c.hoose a different path can become blood whores or not fight at all. Every Dhampir at least has the basic training. Being a dhampir, according to alchemists, is unnatural and the can't be trusted.
