Twilight Series Article: You Know You're Obsessed When...

15

I made this list one day while I had a slow moment at work. Fell free to add on. I even inserted some of my own comments in parenthesis.

1. You jump everytime you hear "Edward" or "Bella"
2. You can't focus on your work/homework because you could be reading one of the books... again. (Um, kinda what I'm doing right now)
3. You have never had an interest in Shakespeare, Jane Austen, or other books, but now you somehow find yourself VERY interested. (I already had interest in these bad boys/girl before, but I actually want to read Pride and Prejudice/Wuthering Heights now)
4. You name your pet/computer/car after after one of the Twilight characters. (My laptop's name is Bella)
5. You relate everything in life to Bella and Edward and anything else that goes on in the books. (I think of how I pulled a Edward on my friend Mike :( and I can totally relate with Edward)
6. You began to look out for men/women that have pale skin and dark eyes and are absolutely gorgeous. (Haha, if only)
7. You want to go cliff diving because Bella did it. (I've been bridge jumping, but I have yet to jump the cliff)
8. Your interest in motorcycles increases. (I want to ride one now!)
9. You read your books while you eat, or you just don't eat at all. (I'm crazy)
10. You go to Forks, Washington so you can imagine everything better. (I haven't done this one yet, but it's on my list)
11. You go to Phoenix, AZ hoping to run into Meyer (yes, I have done this before).
12. You go to Oregon/Washington beaches and think of Bella and Jacob and Edward. (oh yes, I have done this one. I even went to the tide pools.)

groovychicklisa, Leytonfan4ever and 13 others like this

funnyshawna i have done most of these...and a lot more;) i need to make a list of my own thats what i did for harry potter:)

ILY-TWILIGHT i have done most of these and me and my friend are gonna go to forks and see if the meadow exists. lol. i already loved motorcycles but of course my interest in them has increased. i hardly sleep anymore (why sleep when you can spend the time reading the books over and over again. dah) And i have what i like to call twilight moments when i can hardly talk because i remembered a part of the story :D. And any song i listen to reminds me of bella and edward. Especially Situations from escape the fate (in parts of it). And everytime i see someone thats pale i can't stop giggling. Oh and most importantly i can't breathe when i see a silver volvo. hehe.

bratz3191 I've done numbers 1,2,3,5,6 and 9. I'd like to do 10,11, and 12 but I doubt my parents would let me anytime soon. lol =]

kctjohnson I'm doing 10 soon *LOL* I live in Phoenix, but I haven't done #11... probably because she lives in Glendale ;P Here are a few more: 1. Your BF got you a diamond ring for your anniversary, but you demand he return it and get you a Bella Bracelet instead 2. You’re sitting at a café and notice a stranger sitting nearby reading a Twilight book… and it delights you for some reason… and you talk to her/him as though she/he was your best friend 3. You bought a male husky just so you can name him Jacob. 4. You’re a big Harry Potter fan, yet when you see Robert Pattinson, you immediately scream “EDWARD!!!!” Where did Cedric go? 5. You have NO idea who the senator of Louisiana is… but you can name all the Quileute boys… first AND last names (where known) 6. You’d been planning on reading the new Stephen King book… but you’re too busy reading New Moon… for the twelfth time. 7. You have perfect eye sight… yet you bought a pair of golden contacts… and you call fellow Twi-Hards to just hang out… in the shade 8. You never took notice of cars around you but suddenly, every silver Volvo on the street catches your attention 9. You start attending powwows (or more powwos if you already attend them) just to see if you can find someone who'd be the perfect Jacob (or you might be looking for the entire Pack)

AngelOfNight You're life goal involves Edward, you becoming a Vampire, and eternal love. Oh, and a Best friend named Alice with premonitions.

cheergeek You see someone reading Eclipse and you scream at them "Edward or Jacob!" XD, I know someone who's done that before.

Edward901 AngelOfNight, THAT is my life goal right there!!! lol, and i've done number two kctjohnson, only i was at B&N LOL

mirrakule I've done some of the stuff that kctjohnson has on her list.(i.e. cedric/edward) I was in Phoenix in March but I hadn't heard about Twilight yet. Don't think I wouldn't have looked for her.

tor81909 ORRR.... when you have a dream in anyway shape or form about twilight, new moon, or eclipse.. i had a dream i was Bella when i first started the series and Edward was the love of my life and he held me just like he held Bella =] so of course it was just a dream
