Fan review of Remember Me screening *spoilers*
Source: thinkingofrob.com I’m not good with reviews so I won’t even attempt to make one. A friend of mine who attended the screening has agreed to write a review and share it with us. As soon as she’s done writing one I will re-post it here for everyone to read.Cross my heart, pray to die.
' I won't let you down. '
That's not to say it's an easy purpose, or a convenient one. It might very well seem hard or even impossible, but it only looks that way.
New Rob Interview with UK's Sunday Times
On a balmy autumn day in Vancouver, a young man is longing for a walk outside in the sunshine, and deciding against it. Far easier for him to stay in his hotel room, cocooned in five-star luxury with a mobile phone that has run out of charge, safe at least from the girls chanting his name outside. Robert Pattinson, 23 and from Barnes in southwest London, ought still to be one of Hollywood’s beautiful dreamers, moving up the ranks of movie acting, enjoying his American adventure, his guitar, his good looks.Obamacare...a personal look.
I am going to give you my personal look at Obamacare from a perspective which may seem a bit strange but in reality it should be alarming. The interesting thing is that most of all of my childhood I went without even some of the basic things people assume most everyone has. The only healthcare I had as a child was Medi-cal...which is the program upon which Obamacare was designed.
My father worked several part-time jobs as well as his full-time job as a Baptist minister. He did everything possible to provide for us, worked his fingers to the bone and still managed to comfort the people in our church and help them deal with their own problems. Not once did any congregation we served bother to possibly consider that making sure the minister and his family had any healthcare or even some of the basic necessities in life was one of their priorities. They did however call at any time of the day or night for his help and he was there for them.
Sometimes our whole family was there for them. I was a very experienced babysitter, cook, and housekeeper before I was even 11. This is not bitterness I speak from---it is my attempt at revealing to you that many who are among the uninsured are hardworking people often working in service-oriented positions which simply aren't offered healthcare.
So....let me get back to Medi-cal......the mentor of Obamacare. When I hear people on the Obamacare bandwagon I think they probably don't really understand what they are supporting. Many have never been on medi-cal.

Rob's GQ Interview(sorry its kinda long)
HE’S HOT, HE’S SEXY, HE’S UNDEAD
Two years ago, Robert Pattinson was a forgotten extra in a ‘Harry Potter’ movie. Then he got cast as a blue-balled vampire in ‘Twilight,’ the year’s kazillion-dollar movie franchise, and every woman in America over 14 wants him. Too bad he’s not sure he wants them
It’s December; Twilight, in which Pattinson, 22, plays an adorably tortured perma-teenage vampire too principled to drink human blood, has been in theaters for about a month.
