Interview with me

Thats it, I'm a vampire.





I watched Interview with the Vampire starring Tom Cruise (yum) and Brad Pitt (more yum). Best movie I think I have seen of the genre. It was part of my GERS 487 class, Vampire Culture and Mythology/Legend. It was amazing, I was impressed and overwhelmed with emotions throughout it. The mark of a good film is when it ends, and I never once noticed time was even passing. This story was like that, I was so sad when it ended, it was spectacular.

After watching it, I've decided that I am a vampire in spirit. I am obviously not planning on going around sucking the blood of mortals any time soon, but parts of my personality already match up. I've always been fascinated by them, since I was a child, but never been afraid of them. I usually dress as one for All Hallow's Night. I HATE sun, in fact, its been a very warm fall thus far, lots of sunshine and warmth. Every morning I wake up to the warmth and sunlight in my room, it disgusts me. I love the weather right now, its chilly outside, foggy, and its dark with the soft light of streetlamps. Its my eden. Moody, thoughtful, secretive and mystical, so much more civilized.




I must say that both those men were even sexier to me as vampires, and the costumes were gorgeous. I think that deep down my fascination with vampires stems from my secret jealousy of them. They are immortal, see all, and possess an air of mystery and mystic that I adore.

Therefore, I now declare myself a vampire. Like I said, I do not plan on sucking anyones blood, but I plan on recognising the part of myself that enjoys the dark, foggy, cold night, bundling up in fine cloths and scarves and is fascinated with immortality and spirit. It is romantic to me.

I'm really enjoying this class.
