I’m going to go to that place that makes a lot of people very uncomfortable. You know the one I mean. It’s the place where people start to squirm a little in their seats and look around the table in a desperate attempt to social reference before they open their own mouths. It’s the place where people speak half-truths because they don’t want to offend anyone but then go home to their husbands and wives and reveal how they really feel.

Ok ok I admit it… I have a thing for Robert Pattinson. I should probably be ashamed of myself to be admitting it (it’s not like I haven’t tweeted it enough) but I’m not.
