30 Days of Blogging Honesty – Day 14

Day 14 — Because my parents never found out, I remember getting away with __________ as a teenager…

The underlined part would be one of three things –
1. playing Final Fantasy 8 all night long and then failing miserably in Geography the next day in school. I managed to redeem my honourable student status but it was a big blow.
2. skipping school to play computer pool at a masculine friend’s house (that was a really hot encounter for my hormonal years)
3. Not going to college classes for three days in a row so I could finish a stack of Anne Rice books I had just bought. I read in three days:

Interview with a Vampire (was a Tom Cruise Movie)
The Vampire Lestat (gorgeous book)
Queen of the Damned (movie sucked even though Aalyah was in it, book was awesome)
Tale of the Body thief (funniest part was when he re-discovered what his wee-wee was for and apparently a movie will be made this year after this book)
Memnoch the Devil (fantastic description of Heaven as seen by a human being)

They were absolutely fantastic and made me love New Orleans (and I did plan to visit it afterwards until it got flattened by the hurricane)

I loved Pitt and Banderas! Made them really sexy. Tom Cruise… hmm – I liked the taller dude they used for Lestat in the other Queen of the Damned movie better!

I still think that the hottest vampires in any movie series are PITT, CRUISE and BANDERAS ❤ They don't make 'em like they used to hahaha ;D

Hormones – LOL 😀 Way to go! 🙂

Lestat the Vampire is an awesome book you should try. it’s written in first person and by the end of it I was expecting a vampire to come on knocking at my window. It’s quite long but not as long as some Stephen King books I’ve devoured.
Hormones are the worst! I actually went on top of the mountain to scream out my attraction to a dude and now I look back and am really happy I did not confess 🙂

I only ever read the Interview with the Vampire, they’re not my cup of coffee but I can see why they’re so popular. I think we’ve all risked getting in trouble to spend time with a young strapping lad when we were younger, sometimes it’s hard to control hormones!

Became a massive fan of vampire books (I have the whole Vampire Chronicles collection) and was really disapointment by the glittering discoball Edward in twilight… I like my vampires to be manly, not some effeminated douches.
