"You truly are one frightening little monster"

About half the people I meet think my sub-culture is lame, and the other half think my sub-culture is fantastic. I am a die-hard Twilight fan, and I am PROUD. :) Basically, the story starts off with the fact that I absolutely hated Twilight in July. All I would hear everyday at work was the screams of girls/women from ages 12-35 about the arrival of our Twilight t-shirts. I heard a small explanation of the story and straight up thought it was stupid. One day, in December, I got bored and decided to watch Twilight online and fell in L-O-V-E with it. I have to this day seen the movie 15 times and bought the books and they, so far, are even better. 

Us "Twilighters" talk in words that only we would understand. Nicknames, quotes, symbols and characters from the movie take part in our daily conversations to anyone. We also tend to be everywhere. I work at Hot Topic and all I tend to do during my shifts is talk about Twilight to our customers because a majority o them come in for our Twilight stuff. It is honestly the best way i could think of to get paid. We also wear Twilight related things. Twilight shirts and jewelry are the most popular. The Cullen crest jewelry is a majority of what I own. Each character in the movie has their own piece of jewelry that features the family crest. Other Twilight jewelry has been made that represents scenes or quotes from the movie. I wear my Cullen crest jewelry on a daily basis to show that I am a Twilight fan. The last main part of being a "Twilighter" is going to the conventions. The conventions are made up of 100% Twilight fans. I went to one recently in Chicago, met 3 actors from the movie, and met and talked to a ton of people just like me. I talked to complete strangers like they were my best friends because we obviously had so much in common. I did make a really great friend at the convention and we talk on a daily basis. I am going to another one in July. This convention is in Minneapolis AND I AM SO EXCITED :D And that very attractive man I am photographed with is Peter Facinelli, who plays Dr. Carlisle Cullen in Twilight.
