Its History

Boljoon possibly started as a small settlement which eventually grew and prospered. In 1732 alone, Boljoon had 1,760 parishioners. By the year 1760, Father Provincial Pedro Velasco, OSA, reported that parishioners increased to 1,950 which is equivalent to 650 paying tributes, excluding 1,454 non-paying tributes that made a total of 3,404 parishioners. Royal treasury which is the equivalent of taxes in modern terminology. Originally, one attribute was equal to three persons.

Boljoon was exempted from any tribute in 1894 and 1896. The population then was 7,694. Population increases was at such a slow rate due to the Muslim raiders which ransacked everything in the town and left all things on fire. Boljoon once contributed an annual rent of 80 cavans of borona to the convent of then San Agustin Church now the Basilica del Santo NiƱo de Cebu. This was later reduced to half in 1726 because it was found too burdensome for Boljoon, during the time of Bishop Sebastian de Foroinda, OSA (1718-1728), the ninth Bishop of the Diocese of Cebu.

Muslim raiders used to raid the settlement which often left the community in shambles. A Christian mission was also possibly erected in the place called the "Ermita" where priests perform religious services. The earliest Christian mission in Boljoon may have been established by the Augustinians in 1599. The Province of Cebu was then under their pastoral care and missionaries from the town of Carcar regularly visited by settlement in Boljoon. With the convention of the people to Catholicism, a provisional church may have been constructed but without a resident priest.

the first recorded residency of a priest in Boljoon was in 1692. Even with the presence of a priest in the settlement, the predations of the Muslim raiders upon the settlement continued, until the early 1800s. In fact, it was due to the incursions of the muslim raiders that a massive stone church was erected by the Missionaries, designed to withstand the raids. In addtion, the Augustinians placed the church under the protection of the Virgin Mary and accordingly enshrined her image in the Church's altar.

GENEROSITY08-09


Why do I miss GENEROSITY?

It's either because I realize that I never treasured the moments when she was there with

me,and it left me wishing I cud turn back time AGAIN..

OR..

I was so happy with her, I enjoyed every single moment spent with her, that I became so used to

the idea of having her around..

BUT when we finally walked separate lives..

(In Tingko last March 28 over a jug of Boracay courtesy of Apple and mixed by Ihmar)

I realized that a moment spent without her is..

LIKE dying stars which slowly leave the sky--EMPTY

Tsk tsk, Now that we are parted, I hope you have forgiven me for my shortcomings,

indifference, and insensitivity. Please do not forget, even for a moment, that I have loved you all,

ever since. I'll be missing you. Diri nalang coz I'm crying a river now, and it's about to drown the

whole world, Naks.

♥♥dA mOSt mEmOrAbLe QuOTeZSS♥♥


James: Oh, still stubborn, aren't we? Is that what makes you so special to Edward?
Isabella Swan: How old are you?


Edward Cullen: Seventeen.


Isabella Swan: How long have you been seventeen?


Edward Cullen: A while.
Isabella Swan: Clair de Lune is great.


Edward Cullen: [Edward spins Isabella around and she gives him a look] What?


Isabella Swan: I can't dance [laughs]


Edward Cullen: Hmm... Well, I could always make you.




Isabella Swan: I'm not scared of you.


Edward Cullen: [laughs] Well you really shouldn't have said that.
[from trailer]


Emmett Cullen: This is *wrong*, Edward! She's not one of us!
Jessica Stanley: Bella! Guess who just asked me to prom. I totally thought Mike was gonna ask you, actually. Um, it's not gonna be weird though, right?


Isabella Swan: No, no. Zero weirdness. You guys are great together.


Jessica Stanley: I know, right?
James: Beautiful. Very visually dynamic. I chose my stage well.
Isabella Swan: Are you going to tell me how you stopped the van?


Edward Cullen: Yeah. Um... I had an adrenaline rush. It's very common. You can Google it.
Edward Cullen: What did you expect? Coffins and dungeons and moats?


Isabella Swan: No, not the moats.


Edward Cullen: Not the moats.
Isabella Swan: Graduation caps?


Edward Cullen: Private joke. We matriculate a lot.
[from trailer]


Edward Cullen: Are you afraid?


Isabella Swan: I'm only afraid of losing you.
Isabella Swan: I know what you are. You're impossibly fast. And strong. Your skin is pale white, and ice cold. Your eyes change colour, and sometimes you speak like, like you're from a different time. You never eat or drink anything. You don't go out in the sunlight.
Edward Cullen: The hunt is his obsession. He's never gonna stop!
Isabella Swan: You've got to give me some answers.


Edward Cullen: I'd rather hear your theories.


Isabella Swan: I have considered radioactive spiders and kryptonite.


Edward Cullen: That's all superhero stuff, right? What if I'm not the hero? What if I'm... the bad guy?
Isabella Swan: [to Edward] I'd rather die than to stay away from you.
Edward Cullen: And so the lion fell in love with the lamb.


Isabella Swan: What a stupid lamb.


Edward Cullen: What a sick, masochistic lion.
Isabella Swan: Will you tell me the truth?


Edward Cullen: No, probably not. [Bella turns away slighly angry]


Edward Cullen: I'd rather hear your theories.


Isabella Swan: I have considered radiocative spiders and kryptonite.


Edward Cullen: All superhero stuff right? But what if I'm not the hero? What if I am the bad guy?


Isabella Swan: You're not. [Edward smiles]
Edward Cullen: I only said it would be better if we weren't friends, not that I didn't want to be. Isabella Swan: What does that mean?


Edward Cullen: It means if you're smart... you'll stay away from me.


Isabella Swan: Okay, let's say for argument's sake that I'm not smart.
Edward Cullen: Say it. Out loud.


Isabella Swan: Vampire.
Edward Cullen: That's what you dream about? Being a monster?


Isabella Swan: I dream about being with you forever.
Isabella Swan: You know, your mood swings are kinda giving me whiplash.
Rosalie Hale: Here comes the human. [Bella and Edward walk around the corner]


Esme Cullen: [Runs up to Bella] Bella! We're making Italiano for you.




Edward Cullen: Bella, this is Esme, my mother for all intents and purposes.


Isabella Swan: Buongiorno?


Esme Cullen: Molto Bene!


Dr. Carlisle Cullen: It gives us an excuse to use the kitchen for the first time.


Esme Cullen: I hope you're hungry.


Isabella Swan: Yeah, absolutely!


Edward Cullen: She already ate.


Rosalie Hale: [Breaks the bowl she's holding] Perfect!


Isabella Swan: Yeah-it's just that I know... I know you guys don't eat.


Esme Cullen: Of course, that's very considerate of you.


Edward Cullen: Just ignore Rosalie. I do.


Rosalie Hale: Yeah! Let's just keep pretending like this isn't dangerous for all of us.
Isabella Swan: I would never tell anybody anything.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: She knows that.
Emmett Cullen: Yeah, well the problem is... you two have gone public now so...
Esme Cullen: Emmett!
Rosalie Hale: No, she should know. The entire family will be implicated if this ends badly. Isabella Swan: Badly as in... I become the meal. [Alice comes in through the window]
Edward Cullen: [to Bella] You are my life now.
James: You're alone... because you're faster than the others. But not stronger...
Edward Cullen: I'm strong enough to kill you.
Isabella Swan: [to Edward] How did you get over to me so fast?
Edward Cullen: [to Bella] I was standing right next to you, Bella.
Isabella Swan: No. You were next to your car, across the lot.
Edward Cullen: No, I wasn't.
Isabella Swan: Yes, you were.
Edward Cullen: Bella, you hit your head. I think you're confused.
Isabella Swan: I know what I saw.
Edward Cullen: And what exactly was that?
Isabella Swan: You stopped the van. You pushed it away with you hand.
Edward Cullen: Well, nobody's going to believe you.
Isabella Swan: I wasn't going to tell anybody. I just need to know the truth.
Edward Cullen: Can't you just thank me and get over it?
Isabella Swan: Thank you.
dward Cullen: You're not going to let this go, are you?
Isabella Swan: No.
Edward Cullen: Well then I hope you enjoy disappointment.
Laurent: [to Cullens] I am Laurent, and this is Victoria, and James.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: I'm Carlisle, this is my family. [looks from side to side at family]
Laurent: So, could you use three more players?
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: [glances in Edward's direction] Sure, why not? A few of us were leaving, you can take their place. We'll bat first. [tosses baseball at Laurent]
Victoria: [catches ball in front of Laurent] I'm the one with the wicked curve ball.
Edward Cullen: [shuts car door] Carlisle, what's going on?
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: [sighs] Waylon Forge was found in a boat out near his place, I just examined the body. Isabella Swan: He died? How?
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: Animal attack [looks at Edward]
Isabella Swan: [glances at Edward] [to Carlisle]
Isabella Swan: Was it the same one that got that security guard down at Mason?
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: [sighs, then glances at Edward] Most likely.
Isabella Swan: It must getting closer to town then...
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: [cuts Bella off] Bella, you should go inside. Waylon was your father's friend. Isabella Swan: Okay. [glances at Edward and walks up stairs]
Isabella Swan: [turns around to Carlisle then to Edward] Um, I'll see you later. [Carlisle turns to Edward]
Isabella Swan: Look, You gotta give me some answers.
Edward Cullen: Yes. No. To get to the other side. Uh, 1.77245...
Isabella Swan: I don't need to know what the square root of pi is.
Edward Cullen: You knew that?
Billy Black: [to Bella] We came for your flat-screen. And because Jacob wouldn't stop talking about seeing you again.
Jacob Black: Thanks, Dad. Nice.
Billy Black: I'm just keepin' it real, son.
Eric Yorkie: Cute, Mike. Let a playa play!
Jessica Stanley: [On Alice and Jasper] She's with Jasper, the one who looks like he's in pain.
Rosalie Hale: [after Edward asks her to put on Bella's coat to distract James] Why should I? What is she to me?
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: [Hands her the coat] Bella is with Edward. She's a part of this family, and we protect our family.
Edward Cullen: I should go back there and rip those guys' heads off.
Isabella Swan: Um... No, you shouldn't.
Edward Cullen: You don't know the vile, repulsive things they were thinking.
Isabella Swan: And you do?
Edward Cullen: It's not hard to guess.
Edward Cullen: Can you talk about something else? Distract me so i won't turn around.
Isabella Swan: You should put your seat belt on.
Edward Cullen: Haha... you should put your seat belt on!
Isabella Swan: I'd never given much thought to how i would die...
Rosalie Hale: [after Emmett catches the baseball by climbing a tree] My monkey man!
Isabella Swan: Death is peaceful, easy. Life is harder.
Eric Yorkie: [to Bella] So I was wondering... if you have a- a da...
Mike Newton: [shakes wet hat over Bella's head] 'sup Arizona? How you likin the rain girl?
Eric Yorkie: Yeah, Mike, you're real cute you know that?
Mike Newton: What's sup, Arizona? How you likin' the rain, girl?
Isabella Swan: Everyone's staring.
Edward Cullen: No, not that guy. Oh wait, he looked.
[about her husband, Emmett]
Rosalie Hale: My monkey man...
Edward Cullen: If you were smart, you'd stay away from me.
Isabella Swan: Ok. For arguments sake, let's say I'm not smart.
Edward Cullen: I don't have the strength to stay away from you anymore.
Isabella Swan: Then don't.
Rosalie Hale: [Emmett climbs up a tree to catch the ball] That's my monkey man.
Isabella Swan: Everybody's staring.
Edward Cullen: Not that guy. No he just looked. Breaking all the rules now anyways. [looks at Emmett, Rosalie, Jasper, and Alice]
Edward Cullen: Since I'm going to hell [slips arm around Bella's shoulder]
Isabella Swan: Did you follow me?
Edward Cullen: I... I feel very protective of you.
Isabella Swan: So you followed me.
Edward Cullen: I was trying to keep a distance unless you needed my help and then I heard what those low-lives were thinking.
Isabella Swan: Wait. You say you heard what they were thinking?
Isabella Swan: So what you... you read minds?
Edward Cullen: I can read every mind in this room apart from yours. There's... Money. Sex. Money. Sex. Cat... And then you, nothing. That's very frustrating.
Isabella Swan: Is there something wrong with me?
Edward Cullen: See... I tell you I can read minds and you think there's something wrong with you?
Isabella Swan: [Last lines] No one will surrender tonight, but I won't give in. I know what I want.
Charlie Swan: Did he hurt you?
Isabella Swan: No.
Charlie Swan: Break up with you or something?
Isabella Swan: No, I-I broke up with him.
Charlie Swan: I thought you liked him?
Isabella Swan: Yea, that's why - that's why I have to leave. I don't want this. I have to go home. Charlie Swan: Home... Your mom is not even in Phoenix.
Isabella Swan: She'll come home. I'll call her from the road.
Charlie Swan: Your not going to drive home right now. You can sleep on it. If you still feel like going in the morning I'll take you to the airport.
Isabella Swan: N-No I want to drive, it will give me more time to think. And if I get really tired I'll pull into a motel I promise.
Charlie Swan: Look Bella, I know I'm not that much fun to be around but I can change that. We can do more stuff together.
Isabella Swan: Like what? Like watch baseball on the flat screen? Eat at the diner every night? Steak and cobbler. Dad that's you, that's not me.
Charlie Swan: Bella come on. I-I just got you back.
Isabella Swan: Yea, and you know if I don't get out now I'll just be stuck here like mom.
Edward Cullen: Hold on tight, spidermonkey. [climbs up tree]
Edward Cullen: Do you trust me?
Isabella Swan: In theory...
Edward Cullen: Close your eyes. [Jumps to next tree and climbs to top]
Edward Cullen: [Bella gasps] What?
Isabella Swan: This isn't real. This kind of stuff just doesn't exist.
Edward Cullen: It does in my world.
Isabella Swan: Badly as in... I become the meal. [Alice comes in through the window]
Alice Cullen: Hi Bella! [Walks up to Bella and hugs her]
Alice Cullen: Oh, you do smell good.
Edward Cullen: Alice, what are you-?
Alice Cullen: It's okay. Bella and I are going to be great friends.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: Sorry, Jasper's our newest vegetarian. It's still a little difficult for him.
Jasper Hale: Pleasure to meet you.
Alice Cullen: It's okay Jasper, you won't hurt her.
Edward Cullen: Alright, I'm going to take her on a tour of the rest of the house.
Alice Cullen: Well, I'll see you soon.
Isabella Swan: Okay.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: I think that went well.
Esme Cullen: [to Rosalie] Clean this up! Now!
Isabella Swan: [Voice-over] Death is peaceful - easy. Life is harder.
Isabella Swan: Did you... follow me?
Edward Cullen: I-I feel very... protective of you.
Isabella Swan: So you followed me.
Edward Cullen: I was trying to keep a distance unless you needed my help and then I heard what those low-lifes were thinking
Isabella Swan: Wait-you say you heard what they were thinking?... So what, you-you read minds.
Edward Cullen: I can read every mind in this room, apart from yours... Just money, sex, money, sex... cat. And then you, nothing. It's very frustrating.
Isabella Swan: Is there something wrong with me?
Edward Cullen: See, I tell you I can read minds, and you think there's something wrong with you.
Victoria: I'm the one with the wicked curve ball.
Jasper Hale: Oh well I think we can handle that.
James: [Gesturing towards Bella's handheld camera] I borrowed this from your house. Hope you don't mind.
Cora: [Handing a plate to the author of 'Twilight'] Here's your veggie plate, Stephenie.
Isabella Swan: Who are they?
Angela Weber: The Cullens.
Jessica Stanley: They're um, Dr. and Mrs. Cullen's foster kids, they moved down here from Alaska like, a few years ago.
Angela Weber: They, kinda keep to themselves.
Jessica Stanley: Yeah 'cause they're all together, like TOGETHER together. Uh, the blonde girl, that's Rosalie, and the big dark-haired guy Emmett, they're like a thing, I'm not even sure that's legal.
Angela Weber: Jess, they're not actually related.
Jessica Stanley: Yeah, but they live together it's weird-and, okay, the little dark-haired girl is Alice, she's REALLY weird, and, um, she's with Jasper the blonde one who looks like he's in pain.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: [to Edward, when he is attacking James] Remember who you are.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: [while Edward is sucking the venom and blood out of Bella] Edward, stop. Her blood is clean. You're killing her. Stop. Find the will.
Angela Weber: Smile! [camera clicks]
Isabella Swan: Okay.
Angela Weber: Sorry, I needed a candid for the feature
Eric Yorkie: The Feature's dead Angela, don't bring it up again!
Isabella Swan: It's okay, I just...
Eric Yorkie: I-I got your back baby.
Angela Weber: I guess we'll just run another editorial on... Teen Drinking...
Isabella Swan: You know, you could always go for... eating disorders? Speedo padding on the swim team.
Angela Weber: Actually, that's a good one...
Jessica Stanley: Kirk right?
Angela Weber: [in unison] Kirk.
Jessica Stanley: That's exactly what I thought.
Angela Weber: We're talking "Olympic Sized".
Jessica Stanley: There's no way - he's so skinny, it doesn't make sense.
Angela Weber: Totally.
Eric Yorkie: Hey, Mikey - you met my home girl, Bella
Mike Newton: Oh, you-yo-your home girl?
Tyler Crowley: My girl. [kissed Bella's cheek, and pulls Mike's chair out from under him]
Mike Newton: [chases Tyler through Cafeteria]
Jessica Stanley: Oh my god, it's like, the first grade all over again, you're the shiny new toy...
Edward Cullen: I'm the world's most dangerous predator. Everything about me invites you in. My voice, my face, even my smell. As if I would need any of that. As if you could outrun me. As if you could fight me off. I'm designed to kill.
Rosalie Hale: Is she even Italian?
Emmett Cullen: Her name is Bella.
Rosalie Hale: Get a whiff of that.
Rosalie Hale: Here comes the human.
Isabella Swan: I can't bring myself to regret the decisions that brought me to Forks. They also brought me to Edward.
Edward Cullen: I hate you for making me want you so much.
Victoria: I'm the one with the wicked curve ball.
Jasper Hale: Oh well I think we can handle that.
Jessica Stanley: Hey you're from Arizona right?
Isabella Swan: Yeah.
Jessica Stanley: Aren't people from Arizona supposed to be like, reall tan?
Isabella Swan: Yeah, maybe, that's why they kicked me out.
Edward Cullen: I leave you alone for two minutes and the wolves descend.
Edward Cullen: [pushes microscope towards Bella] Ladies first.
Isabella Swan: You were gone.
Edward Cullen: Yeah, um, I was out of town for a couple of days, personal reasons.
Isabella Swan: [pushes microscope towards Edward] Uh, prophase.
Edward Cullen: Do you mind if I uh, look? [Bella shakes her head]
Edward Cullen: It's prophase.
Isabella Swan: Like I said.
Edward Cullen: So you enjoying the rain? [Bella laughs]
Edward Cullen: What?
Isabella Swan: You're asking me about the weather?
Edward Cullen: Yeah, I-I guess I am.
Isabella Swan: Well, I don't really like the rain. Any cold, wet thing I don't really...
Edward Cullen: [laughs]
Isabella Swan: What?
Edward Cullen: Nothing uh, [laughs]
Edward Cullen: it's uh, anaphase.
Isabella Swan: You mind if I check?
Edward Cullen: Sure.
Isabella Swan: Anaphase.
Edward Cullen: [smiles] Like I said.
Isabella Swan: I'd never given much though to how I would die. But dying in place of someone I love, seems like a good way to go. I can't bring myself to regret the decisions that brought me face to face with death. They also brought me to Edward.
Isabella Swan: Hey, did you get contacts?
Edward Cullen: No.
Isabella Swan: Before your eyes were black and now, they're a golden brown.
Edward Cullen: [Closes eyes] Uh, yeah, I know. It's the fluorescents. [Opens mouth to speak again, but walks away]
Edward Cullen: You don't know how long I've waited for you.
Billy Black: I'm down with the kids.
Charlie Swan: [sarcastically] Oh yeah, you're the bomb.
Angela Weber: Maybe he'll adopt me.
Edward Cullen: Edible art? [Bella knocks over the apple and Edward kicks it up and catches it] Edward Cullen: Bella.
sabella Swan: Thanks. You know your mood swings are kinda giving me whiplash.
Edward Cullen: I only said it'd be better if we weren't friends, not that I didn't wanna be. Isabella Swan: What does that mean?
Edward Cullen: It means if you were smart, you'd stay away from me.
Isabella Swan: Okay well let's say for argument sake that I'm not smart, would you tell me the truth?
Edward Cullen: No probably not.
Edward Cullen: Why didn't you move with your mother and Phil?
Isabella Swan: Well, Phil's a minor league baseball player, and uh, he travels a lot, and my mom s-stayed home with me, but I knew it made her unhappy, so I figured I'd stay with my dad for a while.
Edward Cullen: And now you're unhappy.
Isabella Swan: ...no.
Edward Cullen: I'm sorry, I'm just - I'm just trying to figure you out, you're very difficult for me to read.
Isabella Swan: Hey did you get contacts?
Edward Cullen: No.
Isabella Swan: Your eyes were, black the last time I saw you, and now they're like, golden brown...
Edward Cullen: Yeah I know it's the uh, it's the flourescents, um. Ugh. [walks away]
Isabella Swan: Hey dad I have a date with Edward Cullen.
Charlie Swan: He's a little old for ya, isn't he?
Isabella Swan: No, uh, he's a junior I'm a junior. I thought you liked the Cullens.
Charlie Swan: I thought you didn't like any of the boys in town.
Isabella Swan: Edward doesn't live in town, technically. He's right outside.
Charlie Swan: He is?
Isabella Swan: Yeah he wanted to meet you, officially.
Charlie Swan: Alright, [cocks gun]
Charlie Swan: bring him in.
Isabella Swan: Could you be nice? He is - he's important. [Charlie draws invisible circle around his head, as to be a halo]
Isabella Swan: I'd never given much thought to how I would die. But dying in the place of someone I loved seemed like a good way to go.
Isabella Swan: I couldn't bring myself to regret the decision that brought me face to face with death. It also brought me to Edward.
Edward Cullen: I'm breaking all the rules now anyways. Since I'm going to hell.
Jessica Stanley: Hey, your from Arizona, right?
sabella Swan: Yeah.
Jessica Stanley: Aren't people from Arizona supposed to be like... really tan.
Isabella Swan: Maybe... that's why they kicked me out.
Mike Newton: So, you and Cullen... I don't like it. He looks at you like your something to eat.
Edward Cullen: Isn't it enough to have a long and happy life with me?
Isabella Swan: For now.
Isabella Swan: Do you do this a lot?
Edward Cullen: Just the past couple of months. I like watching you sleep. I find it fascinating.
Isabella Swan: [freaking out] You can't leave me!
Edward Cullen: Shh... Where else would I go? [he leans in to kiss her forehead]
Isabella Swan: About three things I was absolutely positive. First, Edward was a vampire. Second, there was a part of him, and I didn't know how dominate that part might be, that thirsted for my blood. And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him.
[notices Mike Newton dancing against a tree]
Charlie Swan: Looks like the Newton boy's got a big smile for ya'.
[Edward enters Bella's room via her window]
Isabella Swan: [flustered] Mom, can I talk to you later?
Renee Dwyer: Come on, we gotta talk boys! Are you being safe? [Bella quickly hangs up the phone, embarrassed]
Jessica Stanley: You guys should keep Bella company. Umm... her date bailed.
Eric Yorkie: What date?
Isabella Swan: Hey, did you get contacts?
Edward Cullen: No.
Isabella Swan: Your eyes were... black the last time I saw you. And now they're like... golden brown. Edward Cullen: Yeah I know. It's the uh... it's the fluorescents... Um... [walks away awkwardly]
Mike Newton: Look at you, huh?... You're ALIVE!
Edward Cullen: What's in Jacksonville?
Isabella Swan: How did you know about that?
Edward Cullen: You didn't answer my question.
Isabella Swan: Well, you don't answer any of mine so... I mean, you don't even say hi to me. Edward Cullen: [pause] Hi.
Edward Cullen: I don't have the strength to stay away from you anymore.
Isabella Swan: Then don't
Edward Cullen: [to Bella, while in a tree] "You're like a drug to me. Like my own personal brand of heroine."
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: [to Rosalie, after she is tagged "out"] "Nice kitty!"
Mike Newton: So, you and Cullen, huh?
Isabella Swan: Yep.
Mike Newton: Well, that's... I don't like it.
Edward Cullen: I can read every mind in this room, apart from yours. [pointing at people in the restaurant]
Edward Cullen: money, sex, money, sex, cat. And then you, nothing. It's very frustrating Isabella Swan: Is there something wrong with me?
Edward Cullen: See I tell you I can read minds, and you think there's something wrong with you?
Isabella Swan: You know everybody's staring?
Edward Cullen: Not that guy [points]
Edward Cullen: ... uh... no he just looked.
Edward Cullen: I'm breaking all the rules now anyway. Since I'm going to hell... [puts arm around Bella]
Edward Cullen: [to Bella before going into the prom after Jacob leaves] I leave you alone for two minutes and the wolves descend.
Mike Newton: You and Cullen huh? [bella nods]
Mike Newton: I don't like it. He looks at you like... you're something to eat.
Isabella Swan: How did you get in here?
Edward Cullen: The window.
Isabella Swan: Do you do that a lot?
Edward Cullen: Just the past couple of months.
Emmett Cullen: This is *wrong*, Edward! She's not one of us!
Jessica Stanley: Bella! Guess who just asked me to prom. [looks at Edward when he walks away because he was talking to bella]
Jessica Stanley: I totally thought Mike was gonna ask you, actually. Um, it's not gonna be weird though, right?
Isabella Swan: No, no. Zero weirdness. You guys are great together.
Jessica Stanley: I know, right?
Isabella Swan: What did you expect? Coffins and dungeons and moats?
Edward Cullen: No, not the moats.
Isabella Swan: Not the moats.
Edward Cullen: Was that as weird for you as it was for me?
Isabella Swan: I don't know. [looks at the graduation caps on the wall]
Isabella Swan: Graduation caps?
Edward Cullen: Yeah private joke. We matriculate a lot.
Isabella Swan: [to Edward] You're impossibly fast. And strong. Your skin is... pale white, and ice cold. your eyes change color. and sometimes you speak like like your from a different time. you never eat or drink any thing. you don't go into the sunlight.
Isabella Swan: How old are you?
Edward Cullen: Seventeen
Isabella Swan: How long have you been seventeen?
Edward Cullen: ...a while.
Isabella Swan: I know what you are.
Edward Cullen: Say it, out loud say it.
Isabella Swan: Vampire...
Edward Cullen: Are you afraid?
Isabella Swan: ...no.
Isabella Swan: Edible art. [kicks up apple]
Isabella Swan: Hello. Thanks. You know, your mood swings are kinda giving me whiplash. Edward Cullen: I said that it would be better if we weren't friends no that i didn't want to be. Isabella Swan: What does that mean?
Edward Cullen: It means if you were smart you would stay away from me.
sabella Swan: Okay lets say for argument sake that i wasn't smart would you tell me the truth? Edward Cullen: No, probably not.
Isabella Swan: [Bella turns away slightly angry]
Edward Cullen: I'd rather hear your theories.
Isabella Swan: I have considered radioactive spiders and kryptonite.
Edward Cullen: That's all superhero stuff right? But what if I'm not the hero? What if I am the bad guy?
Isabella Swan: You're not. i can see what you trying to put off but i can see it's just to keep me away from you. It's a mask.
Edward Cullen: [Edward looks weirded out]
Isabella Swan: Badly as in... I become a meal. [Alice comes in through the window]
Alice Cullen: Hi Bella! [Walks up to Bella and hugs her]
Alice Cullen: Oh, you do smell good.
Edward Cullen: Alice, what are you-?
Alice Cullen: It's okay. Bella and I are going to be great friends.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: Sorry, Jasper's our newest vegetarian. It's still a little difficult for him.
Jasper Hale: Pleasure to meet you.
Alice Cullen: It's okay Jasper, you won't hurt her.
Edward Cullen: Alright, I'm going to take you on a tour of the rest of the house.
Alice Cullen: Well, I'll see you soon.
Isabella Swan: Okay.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: I think that went well.
Esme Cullen: [to Rosalie] Clean this up! Now!
James: You're alone... because you're faster than the others. But not stronger...
Edward Cullen: I'm strong enough to kill you.
Edward Cullen: Uh, yeah this is my room.
Isabella Swan: ...No bed?
Edward Cullen: Ah no i don't, i don't sleep.
Isabella Swan: Ever?
Edward Cullen: No, not at all.
Isabella Swan: Ok, hmmm, boy you have so much music, what were you listening to.
Edward Cullen: It's Debussy.
Isabella Swan: Clair de Lune is great.
Edward Cullen: [Edward spins Isabella around and she gives him a look] What?
Isabella Swan: I can't dance.
Edward Cullen: [laughs]
sabella Swan: ...
Edward Cullen: Hmm... Well, I could always make you.
Isabella Swan: I'm not scared of you.
Edward Cullen: [laughs] Well you really shouldn't have said that
. Edward Cullen: [he jumps out his bedroom window and lands on a tree] You better hold on tight spidermonkey!
Edward Cullen: [he climbs up tree]
Edward Cullen: Do you trust me?
Isabella Swan: In theory.
Edward Cullen: Then close your eyes.
Edward Cullen: [Jumps to next tree and climbs to top]
Edward Cullen: [Bella gasps] What?
Isabella Swan: This isn't real. This kind of stuff just doesn't exist.
Edward Cullen: It does in my world.
Isabella Swan: [to Edward] Can I talk to you for a minute?
Edward Cullen: [Edward walks away for Carlisle and Rosalie cause he was talking to them and walks over to Bella] What?
Isabella Swan: [to Edward] How, how did you get over to me so fast?
Edward Cullen: I was standing right next to you Bella.
Isabella Swan: No. You were next to your car, across the lot.
Edward Cullen: No I wasn't.
Isabella Swan: Yes you were.
Edward Cullen: Bella you hit your head. I think you're confused.
Isabella Swan: I know what I saw.
Edward Cullen: And what exactly was that.
Isabella Swan: You- you stopped the van. You pushed it away with you hand.
Edward Cullen: Well, nobody's going to believe you so.
Isabella Swan: I wasn't going to tell anybody. I just need to know the truth.
Edward Cullen: Cant you just thank me and get over it.

Isabella Swan: Thank you.
Edward Cullen: You're not going to let this go are you?
Isabella Swan: No.
Edward Cullen: Well then i hope you enjoy disappointment.
Laurent: [to Cullens] I am Laurent, and this is Victoria, and James.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: I'm Carlisle, this is my family
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: [looks from side to side at family]
Laurent: So, could you use three more players? [looks at Carlisle's face]
Laurent: Just one game.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: [glances in Edward's direction] Sure, why not? A few of us were leaving, you can take there place. We'll bat first.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: [tosses baseball at Laurent]
Victoria: [catches ball in front of Laurent's face] I'm the one with the wicked curve ball.
Jasper Hale: Oh I think we can handle that.
Edward Cullen: Is it not enough to have a long and happy life with me?
Isabella Swan: Yeah, for now...
Edward Cullen: My family, were different from others of our kind we only drink animal blood, but it you, your sent its like a drug to me you, its like your my own personal brand of heroin. Isabella Swan: Why did you hate me so much when we met.
Edward Cullen: I did, only because of wanting you so badly, i still don't know if i can control myself.
Isabella Swan: I know you can.
Rosalie Hale: [after Edward asks her to put on Bella's coat to distract James] Why should I? What is she to me?
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: [Hands her the coat] Bella is with Edward. She's a part of this family, and we protect our family. We protect our family.
Isabella Swan: Edward I said leave me alone.
Edward Cullen: Bella don't do this please.
sabella Swan: Its over get out.
Charlie Swan: Hey, hey, Bella whats gong on.
Isabella Swan: I just gotta get out of here I'm leaving now. [shuts the door on charlies face]
Charlie Swan: [knocks on Bellas door] Bella.
Isabella Swan: [to Edward] What am I going to say to him I cant hurt him.
Charlie Swan: Bella whats going on.
Edward Cullen: You just have to. Ill be down in the truck.
Isabella Swan: [Bella comes out of the room]
Charlie Swan: Did he hurt you?
sabella Swan: No.
Charlie Swan: Break up with you or something?
Isabella Swan: No, I-I broke up with him.
Charlie Swan: I thought you liked him?
Isabella Swan: Yea, that's why - that's why I have to leave. I don't want this. I have to go home.
Charlie Swan: Home... Your mom is not even in Phoenix.
Isabella Swan: She'll come home. I'll call her from the road.
Charlie Swan: Your not going to drive home right now. You can sleep on it. If you still feel like going in the morning I'll take you to the airport.
Isabella Swan: N-No I want to drive, it will give me more time to think. And if I get really tired I'll pull into a motel I promise.
Charlie Swan: Look Bella, I know I'm not that much fun to be around but I can change that. We can do more stuff together.
Isabella Swan: Like what? Like watch baseball on the flat screen? Eat at the diner every night? Steak and cobbler. Dad that's you, that's not me.
Charlie Swan: Bella come on. I-I just got you back.
Isabella Swan: Yeah, and you know if I don't get out now I'll just be stuck here like mom.
Isabella Swan: But dying in the place of someone I love seems like a good way to go.
Isabella Swan: I can;t regret the decisions that brought me face to face with death... they also brought me to Edward.
Edward Cullen: Yes. No. To get to the other side. 1.77245...
Edward Cullen: Do you trust me?
Isabella Swan: In theory.
Edward Cullen: I can't ever lose control with you.
Edward Cullen: Your scent, it's like a drug to me. You're like my own personal brand of heroin.
Isabella Swan: I'm here. I trust you.
Edward Cullen: What if I'm not the hero? What if I'm the bad guy?
Edward Cullen: I'm going to make it go away, Bella. I'm going to make it go away.
Edward Cullen: I don't have the strength to stay away from you anymore.
Edward Cullen: See? You're dancing.
Edward Cullen: Edible art. [kicks up apple]
Edward Cullen: Hello.
Isabella Swan: Thanks. You know, your mood swings are kinda giving me whiplash
. Edward Cullen: I said that it would be better if we weren't friends no that I didn't want to be.
Isabella Swan: What does that mean?
Edward Cullen: It means if you were smart you would stay away from me.
Isabella Swan: Okay lets say for argument sake that i wasn't smart would you tell me the truth?
Edward Cullen: No, probably not. [Bella turns away slightly angry]
Edward Cullen: I'd rather hear your theories.

Isabella Swan: You're not. i can see what you trying to put off but i can see it's just to keep me away from you. It's a mask. [Edward looks weirded out]
Isabella Swan: Why don't we just... hang out. A bunch of us are going to the beach come... I mean have fun.
Edward Cullen: [Edward has on his crooked smile] Which beach.
Isabella Swan: La Push.
Edward Cullen: Uh, I don't know.
Isabella Swan: Is there something wrong with that beach?
Edward Cullen: [looks over his shoulder] Its just a little to crowded.
Isabella Swan: About three things I was absolutely positive: First, Edward was a vampire. Second, there was a part of him-and I didn't know how dominant that part might be-that thirsted for my blood. And third, I was unconditionally and irrevocably in love with him.
Isabella Swan: [Edward jumps down off the roof of Bella's truck] Could you act human? Okay, I have neighbors. Edward Cullen: I'm gonna take you to my place tomorrow. [Pulls dent in Bella's truck back into correct place]
Isabella Swan: Thanks... Er, wait, like with yout family?
Edward Cullen: Yeah.
Edward Cullen: W-what if they don't like me?
Edward Cullen: So you're worried, not because you'll be in a house full of vampires, but because you think they won't approve of you? [laughs]
Isabella Swan: [unsmiling] I'm glad I amuse you.
Isabella Swan: Just don't leave me.
Edward Cullen: Where else am I gonna go?
James: [catches Bella's scent from across the field] Ah... you brought a snack.
Edward Cullen: [to Bella as they sense the trackers arriving] Put your hair down.
Rosalie Hale: [scoffing] Like that'll work I'd smell her from across the field.
Edward Cullen: Shh... Shh... I'm here.
Isabella Swan: We can't be apart.
Edward Cullen: Where else would I go?
[as Rosalie smash hits the baseball at the same time the thunder crashes]
Isabella Swan: [to Esme] OK, now I see why you need the thunder. But it's gotta be a home run, right?
Esme Cullen: [shakes her head] Edward's very fast.
Jasper Hale: What is it? What do you see?
Alice Cullen: The tracker. He just changed course.
Jasper Hale: Where will it take him Alice? [Grabs Alice a pen and paper]
Alice Cullen: Mirrors. A room full of mirrors. [starts to sketch never looking down at the paper] Isabella Swan: Edward said the visions weren't always certain...
Jasper Hale: She see the course people are on while they're on it. If they change their minds, the vision changes.
Edward Cullen: What's in Jacksonville
Isabella Swan: How did you know about that?
Edward Cullen: You didn't answer my question
Isabella Swan: Well, you don't answer any of mine so... and, you don't even say hi to me
Edward Cullen: Hi
Isabella Swan: Are you gonna tell me how you stopped the van?
Edward Cullen: Yeah. I had an adrenaline rush. It's very common. You can google it
Isabella Swan: Floridians. That what's in Jacksonvill...
Edward Cullen: At least would you watch where you walk?
Edward Cullen: Look, I'm sorry if I'm being rude all the time. I think it's the best way.
Edward Cullen: Shall we?

Isabella Swan: You're serious?
Edward Cullen: Oh, why not?
Isabella Swan: [sighs] Hmm.
Edward Cullen: See your dancing.


Isabella Swan: [giggles] At prom. Edward why did you save me? You should've just let the venom spread. I could be like you by now.
Edward Cullen: You dont know what your saying. You don't want this.
Isabella Swan: I want YOU. Always.
Edward Cullen: I'm not gonna end your life for you.
sabella Swan: I'm dying, already. Every second I get closer, older.
Edward Cullen: That's the way it's suppose to be.
Isabella Swan: Alice said she saw me like you. I heard her.
Edward Cullen: Her visions change.
sabella Swan: Yeah, based on what people decide. I've decided.
Edward Cullen: [somewhat bitterly] So that's what you dream about, becoming a monster.
Isabella Swan: I dream about being with you, forever.
Edward Cullen: Forever? [Bella nods]
Edward Cullen: And are you ready right now?
Isabella Swan: [hesitant] Yes.

Edward Cullen: [sighs] Is it not enough, just to have a long and happy life with me?
Isabella Swan: [after a second of thought] Yeah. For now.

Isabella Swan: [voiceover] No one will surrender tonight, but I wont give in. I know what I want.
Isabella Swan: I know what you are. You're impossibly fast and strong. Your skin is pale white and ice cold. Your eyes change color... and sometimes you speak like, like you're from a different time. You never eat or drink anything. You don't go out in the sunlight. How old are you? Edward Cullen: Seventeen.
Isabella Swan: How long have you been seventeen?
Edward Cullen: A while.
Isabella Swan: I know what you are...
Edward Cullen: Say it, out loud, say it.
Isabella Swan: Vampire.
Edward Cullen: Are you afraid?
sabella Swan: No.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: You've got to make a choice, Edward, to prevent the change from happening. Edward Cullen: no... NO!
Alice Cullen: It's gonna happen, Edward. I've seen it.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: It doesn't have to be that way. She still has what she has.
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: [to Alice, about Bella's broken leg] Give me a hand... take your belt off. [Alice takes her belt off]
Edward Cullen: Carlisle, what's my other options?
r. Carlisle Cullen: [to Alice] tie it above my hand [Alice ties it above his hand]

Edward Cullen: CARLISLE!
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: [to Alice] go Alice, go!
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: [to Edward] Try suck the venom out.
Edward Cullen: you know i won't be able to stop!
Dr. Carlisle Cullen: Then find the will... or choose. She only has minutes left.
Edward Cullen: [to Bella] I'll make it go away, Bella. I'll make it go away.
Charlie Swan: ...your hair's longer
Isabella Swan: Hmm? I cut it since the last time I saw you.
Charlie Swan: Oh. I guess it grew out again.

In 1909, two researchers in Ernest Rutherford’s laboratory at the University of Manchester, Hans Geiger and Ernest Marsden, fired a beam of alpha particles at a thin metal foil. Alpha particles had been identified and named (they were called "alpha rays" to begin with) a decade earlier by Rutherford, as one of the types of radiation given off by radioactive elements such as uranium. Being fast-moving and positively charged (they're now known to be high-speed helium nuclei), Rutherford reasoned they'd serve as a good probe of the atomic structure of matter. According to one popular theory at the time, championed by J. J. Thomson, atoms were built along the lines of currant buns – with electrons (particles carrying negative charge) for currants and a smeared out positive charge for the rest of the bun to keep the whole thing electrically neutral.
Thomson's currant bun atomic model
If the currant bun model were right, every one of the alpha particles ought to zip straight through the thin foil in Geiger and Marsden's experiment suffering, at most, minor deflections because of the weak influence of the spread-out positive charge (the effect of the electrons being negligible). What Geiger and Marsden actually found was stunning. Most of the alpha particles did indeed travel straight through the foil with little or no deviation. But a small fraction (about one in ten thousand) rebounded, ending up on the same side of the foil as the incoming beam. A few were returned almost along the same tracks as they went in.
Rutherford's atomic model
Rutherford described hearing of these rebounds as the most incredible event of his life. It was, he said, "as if you fired a 15-inch shell at a piece of tissue paper and it came back and hit you." Such huge deflections could mean only one thing: some of the alpha particles had run into massive concentrations of positive charge and, since like charges repel, had been hurled straight back by them. Thomson's currant bun model of the atom, in which positive charge was spread thinly over the whole atom, hadn't a hope of explaining the results. Instead, in 1911, Rutherford cooked up a new model of the atom in which all of the positive charge is crammed inside a tiny, massive
nucleus about ten thousand times smaller than the atom as a whole. That's equivalent to a marble in the middle of a football stadium. The much lighter electrons, he assumed, lay well outside the nucleus. To the shock and amazement of everyone, the atoms of which planets, people, pianos, and everything else are made consisted almost entirely of empty space. Rutherford's nuclear model of the atom was a huge step forward in understanding nature at the ultrasmall scale. But even as it closed the casebook on the alpha particle experiment, it threw open another one. Since the nucleus and its retinue of electrons are oppositely charged, and therefore attract one another, there didn't seem anything to stop the electrons from being pulled immediately into the nucleus. Throughout the universe, atomic matter ought to implode in the wink of an eye. Rutherford countered by saying that the atom was like a miniature solar system: the electrons circled the nucleus in wide orbits just as planets orbit the sun. This is the picture of atoms that most of us still carry around in our heads. It's an appealing, easy-to-grasp image – one that's inspired many a logo of the atomic age. Yet theorists were well aware of its shortcomings right from the start. The fatal flaw in Rutherford's model is that it contains charges that are accelerating. The charges are on the electrons and the acceleration is due to the electrons always changing direction as they move around their orbits. (Things accelerate when they change speed and/or direction.) Since Maxwell's time, scientists had known that accelerating charges radiate energy. What was to stop the orbiting electrons in Rutherford's atom quickly (in fact, in about one hundred-millionth of a second) losing all their energy and spiraling into the nucleus? The answer came from a young Dane, Niels Bohr, who joined the team at Manchester for a six-month spell in 1912, shortly after Rutherford went public with his new vision of the atom. Bohr played a hunch. He knew about Planck's quantum. He knew there was no way to save an electron inside an atom from plummeting into the nucleus if it could give off energy continuously. And so he said simply that electrons inside atoms can't radiate continuously. They can only radiate in lumps, and these lumps are the same as Planck's quanta. For a given type of atom, say hydrogen, there's a limited number of stable orbits that an electron can occupy. Each of these orbits corresponds to a whole multiple of the basic quantum. As long as an electron is in one of these orbits, its energy, contrary to whatever classical physics might say, stays the same. If it jumps from an outer (higher energy) orbit to an inner (lower energy) orbit, the energy difference between the two is given off as a quantum of light. Once the electron reaches the lowest energy orbit, it can't fall any further and is safe from the clutches of the nucleus. Related categories

In chemistry and physics, atomic theory is a theory of the nature of matter, which states that matter is composed of discrete units called atoms, as opposed to the obsolete notion that matter could be divided into any arbitrarily small quantity. It began as a philosophical concept in ancient Greece and India and entered the scientific mainstream in the early 19th century when discoveries in the field of chemistry showed that matter did indeed behave as if it were made up of particles.The name "atom" from the Greek word atomos, which means "indivisible" was attributed to the basic particle that constituted a chemical element, because the chemists of the era believed that these were the fundamental particles of matter. However, around the turn of the 20th century, through various experiments with electromagnetism and radioactivity, physicists discovered that the so-called "indivisible atom" was actually a conglomerate of various subatomic particles chiefly, electrons, protons and neutrons which can exist separately from each other. In fact, in certain extreme environments such as neutron stars, extreme temperature and pressure prevents atoms from existing at all. The field of science which studies subatomic particles is particle physic, and it is in this field that physicists hope to discover the true fundamental nature of matter.

By 1911 the components of the atom had been discovered. The atom consisted of subatomic particles called protons and electrons. However, it was not clear how these protons and electrons were arranged within the atom. J.J. Thomson suggested the"plum pudding" model. In this model the electrons and protons are uniformly mixed throughout the atom Rutherford tested Thomson's hypothesis by devising his "gold foil" experiment. Rutherford reasoned that if Thomson's model was correct then the mass of the atom was spread out throughout the atom. Then, if he shot high velocity alpha particles (helium nuclei) at an atom then there would be very little to deflect the alpha particles. He decided to test this with a thin film of gold atoms. As expected, most alpha particles went right through the gold foil but to his amazement a few alpha particles rebounded almost directly backwards.
