twilight + random act of kindness

Hey guess what? I’m a Twilight fan. Yes. Are you surprised? I bet you’re not, what with my other fasincations being other pop culture friendly things such as Harry Potter and to a lesser degree, Firefly. But anyway.

This weekend I went to see Twilight on Saturday morning. I didn’t go a midnight show nor did I go opening day. But really the only reason I didn’t go opening day is because I went to the movies with my friend and my boyfriend to see the new James Bond instead, something they were both willing to see.

I trekked out to the theater Saturday morning by myself to check out the movie, filled with excitment. As I was standing in line, two women (probably younger 20’s) came up to me while I was standing in line.

“Are you going to go see Twilight at 10:35A?”, one of them asked me.

“Yes, I am.”

“I accidently bought a third ticket, would you like it?”

“Oh, yeah… but I don’t have change.”

“Oh, no. You can just have it.”

*blinking*

“Really? Oh, well thank you so much!”

“You’re welcome.”

*Women walk away. I am left motionless momentarily.*

How nice was that? I was a little chocked up by a random act of kindness. And yes, I enjoyed the movie immensenly, but that’s probably because I love the book to death. I’m kind of sucker like that.

Here are some other things you probably don’t want to know.

* Secret Twilight items I own (that are not secret anymore):
– Cell phone case, which was supposed to be an iPod case, but my iPod didn’t fit in it
– A necklace with a quote from the book
– A Twilight t-shirt

The plus side to not being a teenager who loves Twilight is that A) I do not scream every time I see or hear something related to Twilight, though I do get excited on the inside and B) I can afford to buy whatever Twilight related things I like.

Hell yes.

The end.

    The ability to buy what you want is a powerful reward system. 🙂 And you got a free ticket, which is excellent.

    I just had to say, I thought that last comment about the plus side of not being a teenager is that you can buy all the Twilight crap you want. So TRUE!
