Just days after the blockbuster film hit screens to rapturous success, bringing in a massive $139.5 million on its opening weekend, an imitation version of Bella Swan's wedding dress has gone on sale in stores.Entirely fictional though they may be, Bella and Edward's nuptials in The Twilight Saga's Breaking Dawn, Part 1 have caused quite a ripple throughout the wedding industry.

The ultra-fast turnaround has not been a miracle of high-speed creation, however.

Bella in replica: The Alfredo Angelo version of Carolina Herrera's Bella gown stays as true as possible to the original, with long, lace-edged sleeves, an illusion back and buttons running the length of the dress

Instead, the film's producers at Summit Entertainment worked with bridal retailer Alfred Angelo, who have secretively been planning the replica dresses together since May, according to the Wall Street Journal.

Designer Michael Shettel joked that the confidentiality agreement for the top-secret project was 'signed with blood,' while code words were used in the discreet planning process.

I look like the girl in the film. It’s amazing how a film can be seen as.

Love it!

Amy Winehouse planned 'supergroup'

Winehouse's third album, Lioness: Hidden Treasures, is being released on 5 December

Continue reading the main story

Singer Amy Winehouse had been planning to record material with a "supergroup" before she died, music producer Salaam Remi has revealed.

Remi said the singer had planned a jazz album with Questlove, of The Roots, and saxophone player Soweto Kinch.

"There were a bunch of other names bouncing around," he said, at a press playback for her posthumous album.

Remi has worked on all three Winehouse albums, including Lioness: Hidden Treasures, which is out next month.

The producer said he knew of Winehouse's "super group" plans because "she had written down everything she wanted to do".

Questlove features several times on the new album, including on the tracks Half Time and Best Friend.

The 12-track album features previously unreleased material and alternative versions of existing songs.

Remi said, when it came to her music, Winehouse was a perfectionist.

"She was taking her time with it, and at the end of the day all of her songs are somewhat autobiographical. So she had to live through something, then get out of it and look back at it, to be able to write about it," he explained.

It was announced earlier this month that a posthumous album would be released on 5 December, with Winehouse's father Mitch calling it a "fitting tribute".

A donation of £1 from every album sold will go towards the Amy Winehouse foundation, a charity set up by her father "to support charitable activities that provide help, support or care for young people".

The foundation was officially launched in September - on what would have been the star's 28th birthday.

Winehouse died from accidental alcohol poisoning aged 27. Her body was found at her London home in July.

This news affects me because Amy Winehouse is well know everywhere. When she died I was sorry because I know a lot as a singer.

The best song she had is Valerie.

Facebook

Today I talk about facebook.

Facebook is a social networking service and website launched in February 2004, privately owned and operated by Facebook. Inc. As of July 2011 Facebook has more than 800 million active users.

There are many people who use facebook without knowing that it is very dangerous. A few days ago some guys that take away the facebook to not use anyone else.

A few months ago I stole facebook password. In my facebook he had half his life: friends, conversations, photos, videos and much more.

When I stole the password I had really bad happened because I lost all the information I cared.

Now with my new facebook I didn’t upload as many photos or videos because If I come back to steal my password so I don’t know.

If I didn’t have facebook, examine many more, go out with friends…

People don’t know that Facebook is very dangerous because there are many bad people.

So I think we should very careful.

STRESS

It’s been two months since I started high school and the second change is very large and very important for me. The notes have improved somewhat, but is much more difficult.

A week ago I had an exam every day. When I do the exam I get very nervous and always something goes wrong.

Now I have to greatly improve the research. My research is very difficult to do. My research is about a writer named Victor Català. Her real name is Caterina Albert. I chose this job because a friend of mine advised me.

Beside research, I have to blog in English, oral presentations, works of Catalan, Spanish, History and more.

I am eager to star the University and leave Castelló d’Emúries. I want to start a new life.

I’m stressed because I think I still have very long way to go. Getting my driver’s license, pass second high school, approve the selectivity and much more.

Stress, Stress, Stress and what is left!

My poems

I am very very happy! Why?
Easy! On 26 November I will act in the castle of Sant Ferran in Figueres.
I say three poems in Catalan. The poetry recital begins at 8 pm. I began to write poetry about two years ago. Never had recited my poems, but this summer I decided to do it. And I was delighted!

I always get very nervous before recited, but then when I'm in front of everyone I lost my nerves and I feel very, very good.
My dream would be to take a book of poems.

Because you see I put my poems a poem here:) Hope you like!

My esport.

This weekend I played against CV Barbera. It is the first game of volleyball to lose.

We were very nervous and we end up losing. My coach was very upset because we

did not do anything right.

The first half we struggled a lot and the public encouraged us greatly. The players did not stop the

other team to cheer and shout. That got us very nervous. We lost the first part, the second and third.

During the third I fell and I have very bad knee. I could

not finish the game.

When we finished the game we were all very angry and I do not understand why.

I always think that if we lose, we must encourage. Just laugh and are happy when you

win a

game and it does not seem right.

Then the boys played and won. It was a very exciting game.

The volleyball is the sport I like. I feel great playing volleyball. But I think long ago quit because

things do not go well with the team.

Meanwhile, continue to fight.
