Well, well, well. My life has been very eventful, you see. I’ve stood about fifteen feet away from a cast member of New Moon. And he was not very excited, unlike the screaming fangirls.
My story: All of the Twilight stars were scattered around the country for the release of the New Moon DVD, and Edi Gathegi (Laurent) was in Pittsburgh. So, I was excited but figured “Oh well, I’m going to Borders, and I’m satisfied.” But, I get a call from Sophie, who told me Edi would be a short thirty minutes away, on McKnight Road in Ross Township. So I was very unsatisfied with Borders by this point. I asked my mom if she could take us, and she (being a cool mom) agreed. So, I set off at 8:45 to pick up Sophie at her house, and around an hour later at 9:45, we arrived at 4801 McKnight Road – Best Buy. There was absolutely no line, and we figured we were in the wrong place… Then we saw the CAFs and knew we were right where we were supposed to be. We were second in line and so stoked. About an hour later, my mom decides to go ask one of Edi’s publicists if she could get an interview with him for her blog. He said maybe, and that he would check with Edi. He also added that Edi was in a bad mood. Now, why would you be in a bad mood if your movie is coming out on DVD and you’re going to meet some of your fans? Celebrities are so sensitive. Anyway, another hour passed, and at around 11:45, Edi came out. The DJ from 105.9 asked him a few questions, and he seemed alright, but he only talked for about two minutes, and then the man fled. Literally. He waved good-bye, then walked into Best Buy with his body guards and left through the back exit after talking to publicists and Best Buy employees for about three minutes. He was there and gone in not ten minutes. Meanwhile, all of these fans have been waiting to see him for hours, and we waited out in the cold (it was about forty, forty-five degrees but seemed a lot colder).
So Edi, what was your deal? I wanna know. And by the way, Sophie hates you now. Kay thanks bye.
So anyway, just wanted to let you know my story, and that I got the movie and it’s signed by Edi Gathegi 
Pictures will be posted later.

HI, Edi Gathegi? So what’s your deal, bro? The plane ride too bumpy? The peanuts too salty? DUDE, you can tell me. I’ll understand.
NOT.
It was cold, and in case you hadn’t noticed (HAH. Like I considored that) there are middle class teenage girls waiting on the sidewalk for THREE. HOURS.
PULL YOURSELF TOGETHER!!
Kthxbai.
