Chapter 4 - Discoveries
When the final bell rang and I drove home, I thought about my day. Wow. It had to be the strangest day in the history of weird days. First, my angel from my dreams shows up at my school the next day. Plus, he has all my classes and sits near me in every one. And, he asks me on a date when I’ve only known him for a day. Oh, I almost forgot about his mind reading sister. I am SO taking a bubble bath tonight.
I got home and did the little homework I had before starting dinner. I made fried venison and when my mother got home I could hear her stomach growling. “How was your day, baby?”, my mama asked. “Pretty good. I got a date.”
“Oh really?”, she sounded skeptical. “Yeah with the new kid.”, I replied, hoping she wouldn’t object. “OK, that’s fine. When? I expect to meet him.”, she said sternly.
“Saturday night at six thirty. And of course, Mama.”, I said in a patronizing tone. I loved my patronizing tone.
“This is delicious, Wendi.”
After dinner, I went up to take my shower. I turned on the hot water and jumped in. The heat felt great after a cold day. I washed my hair and stood under the water for a good twenty minutes before the hot water began to run out. Then I finished washing and dried off. I went to my room in my silky pajamas and crawled under the covers on my twin sized bed.
I fell asleep quickly and woke up thirsty. I went to the kitchen to get some water and when I came back, Stefan was standing in my doorway. He winked and lunged again, fangs bared. I screamed and jerked upright in bed. Another dream, another sleepless night.
I was excited to go to school the next day and I knew I shouldn’t be. I hardly knew him. It was silly. I arrived at school early thanks to my irrational rush. I saw an ice blue Volvo pull into the parking spot beside me. Colleen looked out the passenger side window and grinned at me. To my intense surprise, I grinned back. I was really happy to have a friend. I was a loner who didn’t like too much company.
Colleen got out of the car and threw my door open. “Good morning!”, she squealed excitedly. “ Hi!”, was all I could say. Colleen walked Stefan and I to our first class and hugged me when she left. Her skin was like ice. It shocked me and she noticed. She mumbled something apologetically and walked swiftly, too swiftly, away.
I began noticing things about them. They were cold, beautiful, graceful, and had fangs. What were they? My imagination got away from me often and when I was near Carmen, she would act weird. They couldn’t be. Could they? No, vampires didn’t exist. But then what? They were too different to be normal humans.

According to Twilighters Italia & Lion Lamb:
New Moon will not be shot in Volterra but in Montepulciano
Despite advertisements, anticipations and every kind of proposal from the major and the township, New Moon will be shot in Montepulciano because the locations are "more beautiful for the movie" than Volterra."
And, they were nice enough to post pictures of possible locations in Montepulciano. Although the movie may not be filmed in Volterra, these locations look accurate to the descriptions in the book.

Let me start off by saying that I think Dakota Fanning is a fabulous actress. That being said here are my reason why I don't think she would make the best Jane. Their are a bunch a little problems and one big problem with her playing Jane. The big problem for me is her age. Dakota Fanning was born on Febuary 23 1994. That would put her at 15 years old when she starts filming in March. Thats only 4 years younger the Kristen(Bella) who was born in 1990 and only 2 years younger the Taylor(jacob) who was born in 1992. Jane is ONLY surpost be 12-13 years old and NO WHERE near Bella's age.
