Changing the world - Day 25

My good deed for today was two-fold. First, a friend of mine needed a place to spend the night so I offered up our spare room for her sleeping pleasure. Second, being the incomparable host that I am, I also sat through the ridiculousness of the first Twilight movie because she hadn't seen it.

This could be my best deed to date. Seriously. I mean, I'm a pretty easy audience, particularly where vampires and werewolves and wizards are concerned. Harry Potter is right up there with my fave books, as is a novel called 'The Historian' - a story about Vlad the Impaler and other unsavoury night-skulking characters. But the Twilight movies are just a bit too much to be borne. Mainly because poor old Kristen Stewart has a face on her like a wet fart throughout the entire film and her eyelashes seem to have developed a will of their own and batt continuously and rapidly.

Then there's all the cheesey, lovey-dovey, vomit-in-mouth lines...Are they actually in the book? I haven't read them so I'm hoping (since the majority of my friends love the books) that the writing in them is better than what was adapted for the screen.

Perhaps I'm just a romantical cynic? Perhaps I just hate crap writing? Either way, my darling friend was on the receiving end of two very good deeds today. Lucky, lucky girl.

Until tomorrow do-gooders xx
