Forgot to say, that I always felt I could relate to Blade. You know, by all appearnces human but being on the outside looking in. The oddball, outsider, in between two worlds, human and vamp, being both but neither. I live that way too. Never really felt like I fit in anywhere, and rejected when I tried. That was especially true in grade school, where i was abused so much (ever had anyone try to set you on fire or threat to drive by your house and shoot at you? I did) that I quit in grade 10 and so I don't have a high school diploma cause i didnt graduate. less so true in university (and karate) where I did make friends and allies. and even dated quite a bit. But I still feel like that quite a bit. like an outsider. And I always wanted to fit in, to BE a full person in society. I never had a bf that lasted more than 6 months. Like Blade at first, i wanted to BE human. I was impressed though, when he learned that being who he was, he was able to help society better than if he became human and lost all his daywalker powers and his half vampire. he didn't cry and sit down and say boo hoo.
I guess this is another reason I love my username. I relate to it.
