1. Compare/Contrast/or Speculate on your feelings about the days before your own Graduation with that of Bella's.
Bella was happy to graduate, because she could move on with the life she wanted afterwards, I was happy to graduate because I hated high school.

2. What did you theorize Alice had seen?
I thought it either had something to do with Jacob or Victoria, all I knew was that it was bad.

3. Did you suspect Edward had ulterior motives in wanting to go to Florida, and what did you suspect those motives were?
I just thought he had wanted to get away with Bella for a few days.

4. Without being graphic, compare Charlie's attempt at giving Bella "the talk" to your own experience with getting "the talk".
My talk was more or less taking health class in school, I would have flipped if my dad had tried to give me the talk.

5. Did Bella forgive Edward too quickly after he stopped her from going to La Push to see Jacob?
No, I see that she is still having a hard time getting over her fear of abandonment from Edward, she doesn't want to upset him to the point where he might leave again.

1)No comparison. I was ready to go!

2)At first, I thought she may have seen the Volturi on the move, then after that - Victoria doing something.

3)Yes. To get her out of Forks and away from danger.

4)My mom gave me 'the talk' and I was in no way embarrassed. Bella's was hysterical!!

5)No. She really understood Edward and knew that he was not being difficult for the sake of being difficult. She felt he did not understand and she just needed to be patient with him. It worked.

1. Compare/Contrast/or Speculate on your feelings about the days before your own Graduation with that of Bella's.

I was much like Bella. I was eager to get out of that school. I didn't have many friends to leave behind either, but I cried because I was leaving behind a few good friends.

2. What did you theorize Alice had seen?

Something bad. Like Victoria or the Volturi, thought the more likely was Victoria.

3. Did you suspect Edward had ulterior motives in wanting to go to Florida, and what did you suspect those motives were?

Edward had his heart set on getting Bella to marry him and it would be improper to marry a girl without meeting both parents. The only other time he had seen Renee was after Bella 'fell through a window' and I think he wanted to meet her again in a bit of happier circumstances.

4. Without being graphic, compare Charlie's attempt at giving Bella "the talk" to your own experience with getting "the talk".

I got the basics from a mother/ daughter class that I took with my mother, obviously. I learned other things thorugh my middle school years.

5. Did Bella forgive Edward too quickly after he stopped her from going to La Push to see Jacob?

A little. I think if Bella had been a but more stubborn and persistent, he would have finally let her go, just once, to stop her from begging him about it.

-I haven't graduated yet, so I can't answer this question very well.

2. What did you theorize Alice had seen?
-Something bad happening to Bella, obiviously, but other then that I didn't know.

3. Did you suspect Edward had ulterior motives in wanting to go to Florida, and what did you suspect those motives were?
-I thought maybe it had to do with something Alice had seen, but I wasn't positive.

4. Without being graphic, compare Charlie's attempt at giving Bella "the talk" to your own experience with getting "the talk".
-Hhahahhaa, my parents don't really talk about that stuff with me, so I have nothing to compare it to.

5. Did Bella forgive Edward too quickly after he stopped her from going to La Push to see Jacob?
-Yes. But Bella loves Edward and can never stay mad at him too long. I would forgive him that fast too!

1. Compare/Contrast/or Speculate on your feelings about the days before your own Graduation with that of Bella's.

Before I graduated, I couldn't wait and just get it over with. I was just fed up with everyone at school besides my friends. But I was also excited because I knew I would begin a new chapter in my life.

2. What did you theorize Alice had seen?
I though it would be about Victoria because it felt like when i was reading that part when Bella asked Edward what Alice saw he didn't seem to be really telling the truth. I'm not sure if that makes any sense.

3. Did you suspect Edward had ulterior motives in wanting to go to Florida, and what did you suspect those motives were?
I honestly think that he purposely mentioned Florida to Charlie when he said something about Billy, because Edward did tell Bella that she wasn't gonna see him.

4. Without being graphic, compare Charlie's attempt at giving Bella "the talk" to your own experience with getting "the talk".
I never had "the talk" so I can't really answer this question. =[

5. Did Bella forgive Edward too quickly after he stopped her from going to La Push to see Jacob?
Hell no! I would have done the SAME exact thing she did. I thought it was pretty funny.

1. Compare/Contrast/or Speculate on your feelings about the days before your own Graduation with that of Bella's.
Graduation is not such a big thing in Belgium as it seems to be in the US so I was just worried basically. I was worried I'd do something wrong during the ceremony (it turned out I didn't have to do anything except for standing around for a while though). The days before I was just freaking out about choosing a higher education. :lol:

2. What did you theorize Alice had seen?
I didn't have a clue but I figured it was something bad-vampire-related=Bella-in-danger stuff.

3. Did you suspect Edward had ulterior motives in wanting to go to Florida, and what did you suspect those motives were?
Yep.

4. Without being graphic, compare Charlie's attempt at giving Bella "the talk" to your own experience with getting "the talk".
I never got "the talk". It's kind of taboo in my family. I did get books about *it* when I was 10 or so. :? And then when I was 11 we talked about it in class. And then when I was 12 we had the same course again but now with also the biological part of it.

5. Did Bella forgive Edward too quickly after he stopped her from going to La Push to see Jacob?
Yes, she did. I don't like Edward for doing that.

1. Compare/Contrast/or Speculate on your feelings about the days before your own Graduation with that of Bella's. Well, with my 8th grade graduation I was anxious to get to high school. When I graduate high school (go class of 10!) I think I'll be anxious to get to college.

2. What did you theorize Alice had seen? What Edward had said, the whole Jasper thing.

3. Did you suspect Edward had ulterior motives in wanting to go to Florida, and what did you suspect those motives were? To use the tickets and maybe start moving forward with Bella.

4. Without being graphic, compare Charlie's attempt at giving Bella "the talk" to your own experience with getting "the talk". Never got it. Seriously. I NEVER had it. I am nearly 17 and not a word.

5. Did Bella forgive Edward too quickly after he stopped her from going to La Push to see Jacob? No, I don't think so.

1. Compare/Contrast/or Speculate on your feelings about the days before your own Graduation with that of Bella's.
- At my graduation, I just REALLY wanted it over with. I was having one of my "horrible days", and to me graduation was nothing.

2. What did you theorize Alice had seen?
- I wasn't too sure what she could have been seeing. If I had to think about, she could have been seeing Bella's wedding that day or possible her as a vampire again.

3. Did you suspect Edward had ulterior motives in wanting to go to Florida, and what did you suspect those motives were?
- I think he just wanted to understand Bella better since he can't read her thoughts, so he just had to meet the parents! He already met Charlie, and could only read certain thoughts from him, so next is Renee.

4. Without being graphic, compare Charlie's attempt at giving Bella "the talk" to your own experience with getting "the talk".
- Actually, I've never really had "the talk", believe it or not. I wouldn't consider a "talk" at least because I already knew before my mother spoke w/ me about it. My father!? I'm definitely not going there. It would be like Charlie's case, if we tried to speak about it. :p

5. Did Bella forgive Edward too quickly after he stopped her from going to La Push to see Jacob?
- I think she did. ONLY because she was very happy to have him back and at that point would do anything for him to keep him there.

1. Compare/Contrast/or Speculate on your feelings about the days before your own Graduation with that of Bella's.

I was so excited for graduation. I was dating someone a few years older who was already in college and I was going to join him at the same school. So, it was definitely a "FINALLY" moment for me.

Bella's experience was so different because she is worried about Victoria and the tie between the newborns and her missing clothes/pillow, she is worried about Edward's reaction AND she knows that her change to a vampire is rapidly approaching.

2. What did you theorize Alice had seen?

Based on Edward's reaction, I thought it must have to do with Bella and Victoria. Bella knew that too subconsiously.

3. Did you suspect Edward had ulterior motives in wanting to go to Florida, and what did you suspect those motives were?

Definitely. It was clear that he was trying to distract her - especially when he uses the "you're not the only one who has been stuck in this house" argument which is so NOT Edward's style.

4. Without being graphic, compare Charlie's attempt at giving Bella "the talk" to your own experience with getting "the talk".

About the same content - lots of embarrassment and difficult to make eye contact with my mom!

5. Did Bella forgive Edward too quickly after he stopped her from going to La Push to see Jacob?

I think Bella ultimately knows that Edward is only trying to protect her - he loves her so much. The thought of being away from him (or keeping him away by closing the window) is likely too painful for her to go through with.
