HIATUS GIVE-AWAY

Have you already decided what to do during the hiatus??? We've got to wait for a long month until The Vampire Diaries is back on January 27th...

To start the year right, I'm gonna give away a TVD 2011 day planner.


So, you've got homework to do during the hiatus... you're all going to read (or re-read) The Stefan Diaries: Origins during the hiatus and then you're gonna answer a questionnaire to enter the contest. I'm going to post the questionnaire soon. Now, your only task is reading the book. If you haven't got it, or can't afford to buy it, you can download the pdf version. In about a week or so, you'll have the questionnaire, which you'll have to answer and email to nataliahatt@gmail.com. The people who answer everything right will be entering the contest. If only one answers everything right, she'll be the winner!

The second of the series: Bloodlust will be released on January 4th (my birthday!!!) so there might be a contest about it in the future.

My favourite moments of "By the light of the moon"
























This was the last episode of the year, OMG! I'm so gonna miss them! I REFUSE to wait till January 27th! yeah, you've read well... we have to wait till that date to watch a new episode again!
We'll have time to think about what to do until that day but for now, I just wanna share my favourite moments of "By the light of the moon".

1. Elena is locked up for her own good:
Oh, Elena you're so suicidal you had to be locked up! Don't you feel a little bit like Katherine now?

2. The tombsex was only in Stefan's head:
Everybody was talking about the tomsex and making us think Stefan would cheat on Elena... thank god he didn't!

3. Tyler turns into a werewolf:
Poor Tyler, I felt really sorry for him. His transformation was very, very painful! Luckily, he had Caroline by his side to make him feel a bit better. Good thing is that he wasn't alone through this.

4. Damon gets a werewolf pissed... again!
Mason's friend Jules was worried about him and went looking for him. Damon wanted to check whether she was a werewolf... turns out she knew her drink had wolfsbane in it... she was really pissed off and told him he'd been marked. Luckily for him, Rose was the one who got the bite.

5. Elena makes a deal with Elijah:
Why hasn't anyone told the truth to poor aunt Jenna? she needs to stop inviting strangers in! Elijah pretended to be a historian and got into the house to make a deal with Elena. Turns out he doesn't want to hand her in to Klaus, he wants to use her as bait to lure him in and kill him. At least that's what he told her... I'm pretty sure he's hiding something. The good thing about this deal is that Elena could get Stefan out of the tomb!

There are more parts I liked but these are the best... Which was your favourite? What did you expect? what didn't you think would happen?

If you haven't watched this episode yet or if you want to have it in your computer, you can download it here: http://fileserve.com/file/bnb7mcE

THE VAMPIRE DIARIES IS TOP 10!


The end of the year is approaching and we're getting to know what was the best of the year!

TVD is ranked #3 on E!online above True Blood and Dexter but below Friday Night Lights and lost, saying:

"Improbably excellent, The Vampire Diaries is addictive and involving television that deserves to be taken more seriously by critics everywhere."

On Buddytv it's ranked #5 above Mad Men and The Big C but below Chuck, Breaking Bad, Lost and Community. There's something off about that list, right? This is what they say about TVD:

"The Vampire Diaries started off strong in 2009, but 2010 saw the best of the storylines so far. We got Elena’s twisted genealogy, Caroline transformation into the town’s bitchiest vampire and Tyler’s sudden relevance as a werewolf. We also met Katherine. You can’t go wrong with Katherine."

And speaking of Buddytv, our boys are ranked among their TV 100 Sexiest Men of 2010:

Taylor Kinney as Mason Lockwood is ranked #59;
Michael Trevino as Tyler Lockwood is ranked #48;
Paul Wesley as Stefan Salvatore is ranked #18;
and Ian Somerhalder as Damon Salvatore is ranked #1. Well done, Ian!

This is a show that can make us very proud! don't you think so?

2:56 PM - Drove by the hardware store this morning and saw Tyler walking out with chains and stuff. Wonder what's going on with him....

7:21 PM - Just got to the grill. What's with all the new faces around here? Must be tourists or something.

Dec 3rd:

8:09 PM - I went to see Caroline last night. Told her I missed her. Then Tyler showed up - I guess she's moved on...I'm so stupid.

Dec 4th:

01:18 AM - Got the night off, but I wish I was working. Would help to take my mind off of Caroline and Tyler. Don't know if i should be angry or sad.

01: 30 AM - A part of me can't blame her - I can only blame myself for letting her go. What have I done? *sigh*

02:32 AM - I gotta fight for her. Like they say on that football show - clear eyes, full hearts, can't lose. Yeah I think that fits.

03:22 AM - Going to sleep. Time to put these troubles to rest.

4:01 PM - At the grill, it was really cold this morning. Thank God she started up or else I'd be in trouble.

4:24 PM - OMG I meant wish not which! Jeez, I need some sleep, lol....

Dec 7th

2:08 PM - Got up this morning for school and the house was freezing. Checked and the heater was busted. Damn.

4:30 PM - Just walked out of History class and I couldn't see the board - I think I may need glasses :o/

It's Ian's birthday today! All I can wish to him is a wonderful day and a very happy life!
I want him to be happy so I'll help him with his cause.
As you already know, Ian is very committed to the environment. He even created a foundation to help create awareness and change the world. He's raising funds to support projects that protect our habitat and nurture our furry friends.
If you feel like giving Ian a gift, he's asking for people to donate to the Ian Somerhalder foundation.
In this kind of campaigns, people are usually asked to donate according to the age of the person. Ian is turning 32 so you can donate that amount. If you can't donate that much, he'll be happy with what you can give, even if it's only a dollar. And if you want to give more, you're welcome to do so as well.
It's a good cause so I've already helped myself and I'm doing all I can to spread the word.


This is the foundation's website: http://www.isfoundation.com/

Have a wonderful day and don't forget to send your messages to Ian!

Juicy spoilers for the next episodes

Stefan and Katherine get it on!

Stelena fans: you're so NOT gonna like this! Ian Somerhalder talked to E! about the "cave sex" we caught a glimpse of in the promo video. It'll be awesome to watch a naked Stefan but I don't think Elena will be happy if she finds out.

According to Ian it won't just be wet kisses and stuff like that... it will be real sex.
I know Elena and Stefan broke up and blah blah blah... but if he is with Katherine and Elena finds out, I doubt she'll trust him again...

About this, Nina said to Entertainment weekly:

“The one person I want to be stuck with, here he is, and now he’s got nowhere to go. I will seduce him, I will tease him, I will anger him.’ The line between love and hate truly is very, very thin,” Dobrev says. “So she has a chance to egg him on, and he can’t do anything about it. He has no choice but to listen, and yeah, it is a very kind of sexy, manipulative scene, and he gives in. It’s pretty crazy.”

Read the whole interview here.

Will this give way to Delena? Fans who want Damon and Elena to be together might see their dreams eventually come true!

Let's face it! Even when he wanted to deny it, Stefan never forgot Katherine. If he had, why would he keep a picture of Kat? and why would he fall in love with a girl who looked like her of all people? Stefan has got serious issues!

If you haven't watched the promo video, watch it here!

Episode 2x12 title confirmed

The first episode in January will be called "The Descent". Actor Jason Ferguson will be playing a character named Eddy whom we don't know much about yet.

John comes back to Mystic Falls
Elena's birth father (played by David Anders) will come back to her rescue in episode 2x13.
Apparently he knows how to kill Elijah so he'll be very helpful.

If he comes back, it'll be time for him to answer some questions... did he know Elena was the doppleganger all along? how does he know about the originals?

And I've got a thought... just a though... what if Elijah isn't planning to hand Elena to Klaus??? what if he really wants to despell the moonstone so Klaus can't break the curse? Maybe he's got other plans for Elena or he wouldn't have let her go last episode... what do you think?

True Blood's Dawn Olivieri to Guest Star

The Vampire Diaries TV Series
We remember her from Heroes and True Blood. Now, she'll be guest starring in The Vampire Diaries! She'll be a new newscaster in Mystic Falls named Andie Star. She'll be a recurring character for an undetermined number of episodes and we can say she'll be spicing things up!



Wanna stalk Ian???


Ian Somerhalder gives away his address on 'Jimmy Kimel live' Dec 6, 2010


This is pretty much the best interview ever! Not only did Ian Somerhalder (Damon) bring Jimmy Kimmel pizza, but he also gave away the deets on the hotel he stays at in Los Angeles!

"Is it good to give out your address on television?" asked Kimmel. Ian said, "Oh, wait! Why'd I just-- oh, my God! ... That was stupid!"

"We've already bleeped it out," Kimmel said. "But I want you guys to promise not to go there," he said to the studio audience, smirking. "Might wanta switch to another hotel," he advised Somerhalder.

Oh, how we would have loved to be in that audience!

An episode full of sacrifice


In this episode of the Vampire Diaries almost everyone is willing to sacrifice themselves for the sake of those they love. How sweet of them!


Elena's Sacrifice

Even though Stefan and Damon have a plan for despelling the moonstone, Elena is aware Klaus will go after all the people she loves so she decides to surrender. That shows us how unlike Katherine she is. But don't think she's so different, this girls surely knows how to manipulate people!.

Damon's Sacrifice

When Damon learns about Elena's plan, he leaves Stefan and Bonnie alone and rushes to rescue her. Doen't he look like Superman going after Lois Lane when she's in trouble? Damon couldn't have been faster!
He's willing to risk his life for Elena and he even uses threats to talk some sense into her. Luckily for Damon, Elijah is not planning to get Elena killed any time soon.

Jeremy's Sacrifice

Jeremy loves his little witch and doesn't want her to gut hurt. So he steals some ashes from her and goes to the tomb to fetch the moonstone... Unluckily, he couldn't beat Katherine and she had a new toy she could feed on all she wanted as he would come to life every time she killed him!

Stefan's Sacrifice

Stefan won't stand Katherine feeding on his beloved Elena's little brother so he comes to his rescue. Too bad he can't get out from the tomb now!

Bonnie's Sacrifice

Bonnie knows she isn't strong enough for the spell needed to get Stefan in and out of the tomb but she tries it anyway. If she hadn't been taking power from Luka, I'm pretty sure she'd be with grams right now!

It seems that next week we are gonna see a half naked Stefan! Do you think his feelings for Katherine are back? Is she compelling him??? Any ideas?

STEPHEN AMELL JOINS THE CAST OF THE VAMPIRE DIARIES

Mason Lockwood may be gone, but he seems to have plenty of friends concerned for his well-being and willing to come looking for him. According to E! Online, Stephen Amell (Heartland, CSI: Miama, NCIS: Los Angeles) is joining the cast for a couple of episodes as Mason’s friend Brady, who comes to Mystic Falls for reasons connected to his missing pal. What connection he has to Mason’s other friend, Jules, and whether he’s a werewolf or not remains to be seen.
