Within the past month, I put a pick up on the vampiros Spot asking about people's favorito! book series about vampires. In the comentarios of this pick, I got into an argument about whether the vampiros of Twilight are actual vampiros (lame to argue about this, I know hahaha).
Specifically she was telling me that Edward wasn't really a vampire because "he has no fangs and doesn't need blood to survive, also the sun thing...". I replied saying that just because Stephenie made her vampiros different doesn't mean that they're not vampires. In the end we agreed to disagree.
Personally, I feel that the Twilight vampiros are so much better because they are different. I amor that they don't fit into the stereotypical definition of a vampire. It's actually really refreshing, I think. I like that they don't have fangs o need to rely on blood o any other difference they have from the stereotype.
I don't know why this bothers me so much. I mean, I just don't understand why a vampire has to fit the whole definition of a vampire to be considered one. Don't get me wrong, I do enjoy other vampire books, shows, movies, etc. "Buffy" started my whole obsession with vampires.
I guess one reason it bothers me so much is because that girl I argued with dicho she only read the beginning of the first one. I noticed that in the comentarios of picks from the vampiros Spot, she was always putting down Twilight and bashing on it. I finally got fed up and dicho something to her, hence the argument we had.
Please tell me your thoughts: do tu consider Twilight vampiros to be considered vampiros even though they don't fit into the definition?

Okay so I was just looking through my pictures, and I found this:
I can't remember where I got it from (possibly edwardandbella.com?) but I just thought it as really interesting.
I mean look how small Alice is, when the book says she's small I didn't think she'd be that much smaller than Bella.
And look how tall Jacob is...hmm maybe he would win in a fight against Edward...maybe not, Edward is good at everything afterall.
So anyway, I just thought it would be useful for people who have trouble picturing the characters heights -like me :).
Tell me what tu think- does it help at all??

Okay so here's a little game that I found. Just like the real bingo, but for when tu say one of the comentarios -and you've probably dicho one of the comentarios más then once lol.
Okay so some of the boxes are a little mean, for example '*ignores Jacobs existence*'. Please don't take offence, I didn't make this. And there are some spelling mistakes too, but I'm sure tu can read it.
I just glanced over it then, and I would say I fill about 10 (how come it's so popular if it's so cr*appy being one I use often-my friends just don't understand lol). How many do tu think tu can fill, comentario below :)
I just thought it was something funny; tell me what tu think please.

3.I amor you. I want you. Right now. -Edward.
4.Marry me first. -Edward
5.I'll never forgive myself for leaving you.-Edward
6.Does my being half naked bother you? -Jacob
