Hello, I'm a 34 English Teacher / Psychologist. Married, no children however two extreamly spoiled and adored goldenretrievers. Moka and Maya are my babies, both girls around 8 human years both of them.
I live in the city of Puebla in Mexico. It is a colonial city near the volcanoes. I give English lessons to children and adults.
I love reading since I was a little girl I read almost anything within my reach. I enjoy reading historic novels and biographies but adore a good novel and mystery. I would love to write, but I'm not good yet. I begin something and then have no idea how to finish it. So I have tons of little stories and things that go through my head in the computer and notebooks. I hope to one day make something out of all of it.
I got hooked in Fan Fiction thanks to the Twilight series which I loved. I enjoy reviewing stories and try to think my reviews and make them nice.
About my Favorite things.- Reading of course, both in English and Spanish. Favorite Authors, in Spanish, Gabriel García Marquez, Angeles Mastretta, Paulo Cohelo. In English, in no particular order Stephenie Meyer, J.K. Rowling, Michel Crichton, Agatha Christie. These are the ones I can think of now.
I also love cooking and I'm good at it, at least that's what family and friends tell me.
I also enjoy sewing, needle point, cross stich and such.
That's it for now I think. I hope that the authors whose stories I review enjoy them I try to make them good. Since I don't feel I can write a story yet at least I can try and write good reviews.

Title: Chapter 12: Chapter 12 - Too Much
The common, usual conclusion would be that Edward is playing Bella. That's the one we don't want to consider. Him having the worst luck known isn't ideal but sounds less terrible than the first choice. Neither need this on top of all they are juggling right now. It's not fair, sadly, that's life.
He is an attractive guy, a great catch to anyone looking, why wouldn't there be several women after him. Sadly he isn't too good at keeping them at bay, and he seems to have a knack for finding the not too stable ones. It's not difficult to guess who went after his car, or at least to think about several culprits...

Title: Chapter 13: Chapter 13: Egged
He is on the right path to redeemtion. It won't be an easy trip, but he is more than willing to make it work. Having Alice on his side is sure to help with the situation.
Who could it have been? All the possible suspects look pretty guilty.

Title: Chapter 14: Chapter 14: Legendary
They deserved the week-end away, to have a good time and relax. Also it was very important for Bella to meet Edward's friends. Both the ones looking forward to it and the ones who weren't thrilled about it.
Bella did more than good, she did great. Everyone was impressed by her and yep, extremely jealous she is the one with Edward now. It was such a great hit of luck for her to be in the bathroom and listen to those ladies conversation. She was assuming the obvious and in this case, wrong thing. It was quite the surprise to her. And to top it off, she charmed Sharon!!! Complete Hit!!!

Title: Chapter 15: Chapter 15: Matchmaker
If either Bella or Edward had thought about it a while ago, it would have seem impossible, but who knew!?!?! It seemed like a perfe t match. These two turned out to be really good matchmakers. Also enjoying a nice evening with friends is always nice.

Title: Chapter 16: Chapter 16: Date Night
He is cute drunk, he is a great dancer and Bella is great at taking care of him. It seems to me she realized Edward needed to relief some stress and drinking and enjoying a night out with his girl and friends was just what he desperately needed. Sadly as you mentioned, he won't be feeling too good in the morning, I hope he doesn't feel that bad ;)

Title: Chapter 18: Chapter 18: Show & Tell
It's a good thing Emmett and Rosalie's visit is after Bella's show, she didn't need anything else to think about.
She did great, and Banner said he was proud of her, who would have guessed!!! As for Mike, sadly his feelings spoke for him and it did make things a bit tense with Bella. But such is life at times. Bella was tense, nervous and with more than enough reasons for it.
Now after the show and after things calmed down a bit, things are looking brighter and with much more hope for the future ;)

Title: Chapter 19: Chapter 19: Birthday Boy
Okay, it's his house, but he didn't even send a message? And a wife? He was single when he left...
It's going to get interesting and there will be plenty of talking for sure.

Title: Chapter 20: Chapter 20: Looking For A Home
Yes, the situation is far from ideal at the moment, but it doesn't mean it won't improve. It might take them a bit to settle again but in the long run, I believe all of this is for the best. It will also prove how close they have come to be and the depth of their feelings.

Title: Chapter 23: Chapter 23: Graduation Day
Kids always rock the world, as long as Edward's do it in a good way for them, Edward and Bella, it will be all right.
It has been quite the day, and Bella couldn't have asked for a better one. Her future looms bette and brighter and her family raeally, really liked Edward.
Of course they all will need some time to settle and addapt , who wouldn't? But as long as they all make an effort, it will be all right.

Title: Chapter 26: Chapter 26: The Boys Are Here
With kids it's like ocean waves, ups and downs. Right now everything is new and different. Once they have to settle into a routine, it won't be as fun and that's when the tantrums will be trying to surface. Hopefully by then Bella will be more confident of herself around kids.
Bella and Esme's talk was kind of expected but still surprising. It must make Bella feel better knowing Edward's parents like her and encourage their relationship.

Title: Chapter 28: Chapter 28: Making Adjustments
Oh poor Bella, she has been putting so much effort and dedication to her work, and now with Mr. Rodriguez's attitude and how she acted, which is fine with me but I'm not her boss, will things get complicated?
We'll have to wait and see.

Title: Chapter 29: Chapter 29: Standing Strong
It went really well. Bella had not only Edward's support but everyone else's in the gallery too. She was able to handle things wonderfully and realize how to deal with Jaime, it wasn't easy and it showed how much she can give and that's still some for her to learn. Bella handling things on her own was great for her confidence and her future work. As you said, it will also be helpful with the boys.
Summary: These are a collection of outtakes and deleted scenes from my story, For Whom the Bell Tolls. There will probably be around half a dozen chapters in this submission, including Alice and Jake POVs. And some vampy lemons.

Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1 - Jake's Transformation
Thanks for starting this alternate recount of the story. It will be as good as the other and will also be very helpful. It has been already with this chapter telling us things from Jake's side. It is very different but it was really good to see things from the other side. Billy and the Elders took to it so much better than Jake or us expected. In a way they knew it might happen and they were kind of expecting it. This is good for Jake, it will make it less confusing at least.

She lands in Forks, Washington, and her journey of self-discovery begins.

Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1 (content1)
It's in a way the baseline for most fairytales and love stories, as old as time itself. And yet it has such an appeal that we find ways to twist, bend, modify the story to be interesting, catching. Better to enjoy it than try to understand it.
Which of course means I'm loving it :)
