Oh. My. Gaaah.

Big Twilight news (I'm wondering if I should change this blog from one about my life to just about Twilight...although, they're kind of one in the same as of late).

TAYLOR LAUTNER IS OUT!

Okay, it hasn't been confirmed, but what HAS been confirmed is that the casting decision for Jacob Black is undecided...which, in code, means Lautner has been let go.

Also in casting news, apparently Ben Barnes (click here to see who he is) is campaigning for the role of Aro. I must say, at first I was kind of...eh, what!?! But the more I thought about it, the more I thought that would be bloody fantastic. I think he'd be brilliant for the part, and definitely a very wise route for the casting directors to take.

Anywhos, here are two links to the news:


At first I wasn't sure about the supposed front-runner for Jacob Black's role, but just like Ben Barnes, the thought grew on me...I think he'd be good (at least physically. I think he definitely looks the part...we'll have to see acting-wise).

Hope everyone is doing well! I'm taking a break from studying for finals currently. 

Tomorrow I have three finals: French 7:30-9:30; World Religions 10-12; and Western Civ. 3:30-5:30. I'm leaving early Wednesday morning for the drive out back to AZ, and we'll be stopping in Albuquerque for the night. One of the girls that is driving out with me is getting dropped off in Albuquerque, so we're going to stay with her family. That way we don't have to spend any money on a motel room!

Although, we'll definitely have to drive slower than originally anticipated. Ice is everywhere, but thankfully there's no snow. Nothing has been falling from the sky, so I guess that's always a good thing. Hopefully it'll clear up some by Wednesday...but don't worry (and that means you, Mom). I'll be a good, responsible driver and I know my limits. If I don't feel comfortable driving, we'll find a hotel to stay in and we'll just take our time.

Anyways, I'm about off work and I'm hungry. Don't really know what I'll eat...perhaps some chips and salsa. I guess I'll go back to studying some more (although I definitely don't WANT to...but who ever wants to study?). Hope everyone is doing well and feeling super! I'll be home soon! WOOT!

Wow! I think this new guy Michael Copon would be great as Jacob! He looks so much like Taylor that he could be him a few years older. I feel bad for the guy that's out, but at least this will solve some of the height issues. Plus, anyone who's read the books knows the transformation is HUGE, so this could explain a lot of that and they won't have to "pretend" he's changed a lot when we can see he hasn't.

Anyway, you're on your way home right now. Last text I got you were about 3 hours away from Tucson and wanting me to stop bugging you with texts. Get home soon. Love, Mom
