How did you pick your screen name?
My name, Elwing, is from The Silmarillion, a book from JRR Tolkien that tell the hole story about the Midle-Earth, with details about everything that happend before The Hobbit and The Lord Of The Rings. Elwing is the wife of Earendil, and actually is the mother of Elrond and the grandmother of Arwen (for those who saw the movie or read the books). The name means "star-spray" in Sindarin, in Spanish is translated like ROCIO DE ESTRELLAS ("dew of stars"), and my name is ROCIO, wich is like dew in spanish. I´m from Argentina.

How did you come to read Twilight and which book is your favorite?
I heard about Twilight when the movie came out. Near my house there was a construction site and was full of Edwards and Bellas everywhere, and I was against my younger brother went to see it because I thought he was like True Blood or something like that. Last year I and a college friend were talking about books and she said Twilight was really good and I HAD to read it, and the next week as it was my birthday she gave me Twilight. Long story short, I LOVED IT, the Oct 13th was my B-day, Tuesday, by Thursday I had already finished reading it and I bought a New Moon, that by Sunday (Oct 18th) I had already finished. For Eclipse I had to wait until early November to read it because I had exams, I almost die, and ´cause of the finals, Breaking Dawn I read it in January, simultaneously with the same friend who introduced me to the world of the Cullen clan, I was so exited that it only took me 5 days. I already read each book 3 times.
My favorite book is Eclipse.

Who do you like best: Edward, Bella, or Jacob?
Edward

Who is your favorite minor character?
Alice, and people say we are very much alike

What are your hobbies?
I like read, and a lot of movies. I´m also red belt in Tae Kwon Do, and I in summer I like to swimg in the sea.

Where are you from
Buenos Aires, Argentina.

How old are you?
22, going for 23...

Anything else you would like to share.
sorry if sometimes I screw with grammar... (Can I say screw?) I´ve been reading the Lex since last year but it was for my bad grammar I would not venture to the forum.
