BLOG 10

I read a lot over the last week out of Breaking Dawn. I never expected what happened. But it turned out that Bella was pregnant and was dying from the baby inside her. The baby turned out to be half mortal half immortal. Every day Bella is dying more and more from this creature living inside her, but insists to give birth and won't hear any other side. Jacob and his new pack of Leah and Seth stay around the Cullen house and forget the treaty so they can watch out for the Volturi/Sam to come and try to kill Bella. (Its against vampire/treaty rules to have an immortal baby) Bella has to drink blood and while giving birth she dies, and Edward has to bite her and transform her into a vampire to save her life. Then the chapters flip back into Bella's point of view and tell from when shes giving birth and then "blacks out" and all the pain she goes through when she's becoming a vampire.

Holiday Blog

This weekend our hockey team was in a tournament that we host called the Abra Holiday Tournament. This holiday tournament is considered the best highly ranked and playing teams in the state which usually draws a big crowd. I read an article in the Star Tribune about our team on the weekend. Before we entered the tournament we were almost 500 and weren't playing to our potential. In high school hockey there are blogs of parents and watchers who write about what they think of teams/players/coaches etc. A girl on our team told us to look at some blog they found of all the "bloggers" writing that they thought our team would come in last with no expectations of winning a single game and a few other not to nice words. Our first game we played Irondale, who were semi-good. They had two girls on their team that played on the u18 national team which got our attention. We came out strong and ended up winning 6-3 which was a big win for us. Our second game we played Hill-Murray who were ranked 4 at the time and were expected to have a shut out against us. We ended up winning 3 to 1 and going to the championship against stillwater whos rated #3. "it was a preview to the state tournament" says Star Tribune writer. We ended up winning 3 to 2 to take the title.

Breaking Dawn...again

After Edward and Bella come home from Esme Island the book turns to Jacobs perspective for a few chapters. It talks about his struggles with how being a werewolf your pack can hear everything you think and it gets really annoying hearing all 7 peoples thoughts when he evolves into werewolf form. When he hears about Bella and Edward coming home he thinks that Bella is either dead or turned into a vampire. (because he assumed their "honey moon" is where Edward will transform her) He then hears from Billy who heard from Charlie that Bella got some really bad disease and could be dying he assumes thats the Cullen's way of eventually telling Charlie Bella died. So Jacob runs over to the Cullen's house to demand to know what is going on with Bella. And then I fell asleep. I cannot wait to see what is going on with Bella, at this point it could be anything. These few chapters remind me a little bit of the movie "The Notebook" when Ali moves away and then Noah rebuilds the house and Ali sees the add in the paper and really wants to go see him but is getting married soon and you can tell it is really bothering her, like this is with Jacob.

BREAKING DAWN!

I've started to read the fourth book of the Twilight saga "Breaking Dawn". After reading Eclipse I've sort of started to feel bad for Jacob who is a werewolf thats always been in love with Bella. I feel like at the end of Eclipse Bella was completely leading on Jake, in example when she kissed him. So when I started reading Breaking Dawn I was more towards Jake's side a bit more than Bella's. This book starts off with planning the wedding of Bella Swan and Edward Cullen. They get married as an exchange of Edward turning Bella into a vampire. Jake comes to the wedding and gets very heated about Bella actually turning into a vampire, so Sam makes Jake leave. After the wedding Bella and Edward go to "Esme's Island" for their honeymoon and have two "fun nights" which later turns into Bella being pregnant, but since Edward is immortal the baby is growing in the time of 2 months. Later finding out that this baby is killing Bella. After that there is a few chapters written in Jacob's perspective which made me realize how much pain he is in and how I totally feel bad for him. I would compare this with a horror story like frankenstein being born. She almost dies if it wasnt for Edward turning her into a vampire after the baby is born.
