Hi, I'm Songbird

How did you pick your screen name?
It's a nickname my college roommate gave me because I was a music major and I sing all the time.
How did you come to read Twilight and which book is your favorite?
I kept seeing Flair Buttons about "Edward Cullen" on facebook and had no idea who he was, so I googled him. Then a bunch of my friends started talking about how much they loved the books, and since I'm an avid reader, I decided to check them out, despite how cheesy it sounded (vampire romance? Really??) and my normal aversion to anything gorey (thank goodness Twilight is not like that) and I got hooked.
Who do you like best: Edward, Bella, or Jacob?
Jacob, because he has a great sense of humor, he's warm, and loyal. He's the kind of person I could easily be friends with.
Who is your favorite minor character?
Probably Alice, because she reminds me of my best friend who I miss so so so much. We've been friends since we were 6 and she's very spastic, enthousiastic, and doesn't do things halfway. I can see myself and my best friend hanging out with Alice...she's the ultimate "girls night out" companion and I'd LOVE to have a slumber party with her!! Bella didn't appreciate that enough because it wasn't her plan...I can understand her being upset about her plans being changed, but I don't get why she was so opposed to the idea as a whole.
What are your hobbies?
I have a LOT of them. I love singing, reading, baking, genealogy, and crafting (making cards and jewelry). And of course spending time on the internet, though I'm a technology squib.I'm on staff at one of the major Harry Potter fan sites, as well as belonging to a MUCH smaller fandom, and of course facebook (much the easiest way to keep in touch with my family back home and share pictures of my munchkins),
Where are you from (general area like Montana, not exact town!)
I'm originally from Wyoming, in the US, but I live in the Netherlands. The crazy things we do for love!
How old are you? (In general, like teen, 20's, 30's, 40's etc)
Let's just say I'm a Twilight mom, who hopes that when my daughter is old enough, she'll love the books as much as I do...maybe my son, too, for that matter.
Anything else you would like to share.
I'm a huge nerd! I love Twilight and Harry Potter (I know, that's kind of controversial with some fans, but I feel it's sort of like Ice cream. You can love more than one flavor...and I love a LOT of different flavors in my reading. Jane Austen, Nora Roberts, and a lot of different books by different authors. I'm pretty eclectic.) and reading in general. And Disney...and Glee...the list goes on and on. See? Told you I was a nerd.
