went regina's house to watch vampires suck and eclipse and it was totally a joke ( i mean vampires suck) and i still think lady gaga was so extra there. and then eclipse was wayyy better than twilight and new moon, minus off those edward and bella parts they are forever mumbling and blah and that makes up like a quarter of the whole movie -.- and some parts still seem funny after the parody of twlight.
so anyway i read finish this book, she walks in beauty, and it's really a good read! set in the victorian age, it goes through the preparation of clara's debut, talking about issues like money, status, looks, facades and also true love, betrayal, friendship and death.
there's this poem inside this book, titled she walks in the beauty by lord bryon.
She walks in beauty, like the night
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that's best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes:
Thus mellow'd to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.
One shade the more, one ray the less,
Had half impair'd the nameless grace
Which waves in every raven tress,
Or softly lightens o'er her face;
Where thoughts serenely sweet express
How pure, how dear their dwelling place.
And on that cheek, and o'er that brow,
So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,
The smiles that win, the tints that glow,
But tell of days in goodness spent,
A mind at peace with all below,
A heart whose love is innocent!
Of cloudless climes and starry skies;
And all that's best of dark and bright
Meet in her aspect and her eyes:
Thus mellow'd to that tender light
Which heaven to gaudy day denies.
One shade the more, one ray the less,
Had half impair'd the nameless grace
Which waves in every raven tress,
Or softly lightens o'er her face;
Where thoughts serenely sweet express
How pure, how dear their dwelling place.
And on that cheek, and o'er that brow,
So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,
The smiles that win, the tints that glow,
But tell of days in goodness spent,
A mind at peace with all below,
A heart whose love is innocent!
