Hello dear citizens of the world. I, in all my lameness, have a sudden need for vampires. Therefore I’m searching the internet for stuff to read and watch, so far I’ve got an endless list of movies to watch, some TV shows that never made more than a season and a couple of books. I’ve been at it for about an hour to find something I can actually get my hands on and I’m making a nice list of things to get, but I just needed a break. Why this sudden interest in vampires?
Okay, it isn’t very sudden, I’ve had it my entire life(well since I was a kid and read The Little Vampire by Angela Sommer-Bodenburg. I think I got the first book when I was four, then my mother read it to me, but I learned to read about a year later and those were a large part of what I read(along with books by Roald Dahl and Astrid Lindgren). It’s safe to say that since then I’ve had a thing for vampires. I lost my interest somewhat when Twilight came into the world and masses of people(read: teenage girls) became obsessed. I read the book, and it was funny, but too.. Oh I don’t know, just too much of something. Vampires sort of left my regular reading lists, tv-shows and movies(or should I say that I left them out?), but now they’re back and I’m exited all over again.
It is sort of embarrassing to be a “vampire fan” isn’t it? I mean I would never say it out loud in real life, I once brought a book to school and I couldn’t read it because I felt stupid. Of course I feel like I need to read things that are interesting or something, because I’m not a very interesting person. I’m just plain old normal, and plain old normal equals boring. When I was younger I’d pretend to be mysterious so that people would be interested in me, but it didn’t work(surprise surprise..).
My parents are interesting, or at least I think so, my mother was a very passionate person, who got herself arrested for demonstrating and things, my dad almost ran of with some cult(he was also a “DJ” and incredible drawer. I’m not sure what happened to them(they grew up I suppose, they still are weird though, and I’ve gown up with my friends telling me that “My parents are odd, have odd rules(I think it was the fact that we didn’t have a video player), but that they are seriously cool.
Uhm, I was talking about vampires weren’t I?
