Hello everyone! How are you?

I'm rather tired today. After a very early morning and a trip to the bus station, a surprisingly expensive shopping expedition and several hours spent in the library doing nothing, I'm now watching Taylor Lautner stride angrily around in the rain with his shirt off. Sadly, not in real life.

My name is Cara, and I have been to Forks. Don't get me wrong though, I'm not a Twihard (is that what they're called?), I enjoyed the first few books but Breaking Dawn was just silly. I am Team Jacob though, most definitely. R-Patz/Edward is pretty but his obsession is more than creepy. Thoughts? Or should I never revert to Twilight tangents again?

I'm going to try to answer all challenge questions today! Familywise, I have a mommy and a daddy, and two little brothers, both of whom are taller than me. John is 17, has just learned to drive before me and has also managed to be the first of us children to crash Mum and Dad's car. Rob is 13 and a typical teen, who answered the phone to me just today with a grunt and a derisive 'Oh, it's you.' When I catch him on his good days however, he is still my baby brother... D'awww.

As for pets, our family owns six ducks, and our flat would like to own a baby bear. Sadly, we make do with Simba the lion, Monty the monkey and Pink dog, the... dog. We also have a wonderous pet shelf which Pegasus sits on to survey the room.
I am about to finish my 3rd year at Edinburgh University, where I study Psychology and Linguistics. I also have academic interests in literature and several sciences, as science is my baby!

I read many blogs, so chosing between them is difficult. Some of my favourite blogs are written by these lovely girls, but others by Hayley (hayleyghoover.blogspot.com), Kristina (italktosnakes.blogspot.com) and the Sleep Talking Man (sleeptalkinman.blogspot.com) are hilarious and insightful. I also love Postsecret.

My favourite concert I've been to was probably T in the Park 2007, with Kirsty. The Killers and Snow Patrol played, and it was so exciting! Another concert I loved was my first ever Julia Nunes gig, because she's one of my favourite musicians and I was hilariously starstruck.

As for the dinner question, it needs much more thought than I can give at 3am, but first on the list is definitely The Doctor, followed by Lyra and Will, and possibly Tom Felton. Oh, and Hugh Laurie.

Finally, I just want to mention something relevant to Mhairi's discussion on Monday. Though to an extent I do agree that the parties have very similar policies in some areas, the article published today by the Independent almost made me spit out my cereal (if I liked cereal and had been eating it at the time). This is why I'm voting against the Conservatives... because their fundamental ideology worries me.

I'm going to enjoy tomorrow whatever happens, though I do have my fingers crossed that our nation will do the right thing. Ah, democracy!

Love love guys, I'm very much looking forward to this new blogging era!

P.S. I managed to type this entire thing on my iphone, I'm overly proud of myself...
