Just a reminder the Discussion thread will be open until Monday so enjoy posting while you can. And to keep you up-to-date on the QOTD check out our archive page.




Adding this again from the forums…
Lemme break it down for ya.
Bella: “Oh, Mike! How will I go on?â€
Oh – Oh sounds exactly like O, and O is used to express that you are shocked on the internet. Bella is shocked.
Mike – Mike’s last name is Newton, and there are cookies called Fig Newtons, so there are cookies around.
how – How is in the word chow. And chow is in the word chowder. Yum, soup!
will – When someone dies, they usually leave a will stating who they give their belongings to. So Bella gets something.
I – Bella
go – People usually say Go in races, like ready, set, go, so there is a race.
on – On is No backwards, and no sounds like know. She knows something.
And now when we put it all together… the real meaning is revealed! xD
Bella: Ohmigosh, Mike! I’m so shocked! You totally ate my Fig Newtons! I feel worse than James! You didn’t even save me any chowder, either! You should at least give me your shampoo, ever since Eclipse your hair has been really hot. I think I’m going to get my boyfriend, he will know what to do with you!
But in all seriousness, I can totally see Bella being all Scarlett O’Hara and pretending to be dramatic. He probably invited her on a date or something.
LOL! i love his quote! I was expecting something more… but i still LOVE this one! There is definently sarcasm. I think it has to do soemthing like this:
Mike: So, well, I’ve been thinking. You know, about the colloage thing and stuff. And I just wanted to say that, I’m sorry Bella, I’m going to *insert colloage name here*. And i dont think ill see you again.
Bella: OH mike!How will i go on
Mike: seriously bella -.-
…
yup! ^^
Erynn! your explanations are always the best!!
That was… HILARIOUS. lol.
Rise: hahahaha!!!!!! love your sense of humor. i had a bad day and reading this made it soooo much better! thnx!
I don’t think Bella will actually say this to Mike’s face, as the sarcasm seems a bit too mean, especially since she probably wont see him much more. Unless she breaks two legs, and Edward is off hunting, and Mike finds her or something like that. Which is also highly unlikely.
More likely, I think that it will be a comment made when someone in the Cullen family teases her about leaving Mike behind desolate and heartbroken.
Yay a quote! Bella has always been sarcastic, and she definately shouldn’t stop now.
hahaha.
wow, i wonder what this one means ??
bella makes me laugh. (:
Hmm… Maybe he’s dancing with Bella at hers and Edward’s wedding reception and he said something to her, that made her say that line sarcastically? Haha, I have no idea…. =P
I think it’ll be like this:
Mike: Bella, i’m sorry but i can’t go to your wedding.
Bella: Oh Mike! How will I go on?
And he’ll give some lame reason why he can’t go but it’s really because he still has feelings for her. She, of course, is happy about one less person attending the wedding. By the way, I am loving the sarcasm.
Wouldn’t it be crazy if Mike suddenly guesses right about Edward and tells Bella that he think he’s a vampire?!?!!?! Then the quote is Bella tring to hidet he fact that its true?!?!?
Yeah probably wont happen, but fun to think about
Ome! I hope she was being sarcastic!!! Maybe she’s upset about something…and Mike just happened to be there (seeing that he’s always there XD). But she was probably being sarcastic about him saying something about the Cullen family that she already knew…
Like my theory from above the converstaion will go along the lines of this…
Mike: What if Edward is a vampire!?
Bella: What? A vampire! Oh, Mike! How will I go on? Living with a vapire, he’ll try to kill me!
that quote is so informal!
i like the way these quotes are done, this way i don’t feel spoiled and cheated.
Erynn – that was brilliant. I’ve not laughed so hard in, oh, at least a day.
I think it’s a response to something Edward has said to her in relation to all the guys she’ll be missing out on now that she’s marrying him.
omg think of all the possibilities for this one!! and its, much like bella, dripping with sarcasm!!! hooray!
I honestly dont have any clue if this is either sarcastic or refering to a bad situation quote…This is great!!
Im glad they dont have spoilers..it just makes you wanna wander and get exited….and not get desapointed:D
oh freak..typo error on my cment…
oh well…
Mike schmike!!! Mmmhhh interesting quote!
I love edward and jacob but jacob had better not ruin the wedding i want edward and bella to get married and get that out of the way so she can become a vampire
Line that fallows the quote : Bella “I want you, I need you. Oh Baby, Oh Baby.”
I think this quote is cute!
Maybe Bella is like telling this to Mike and she wants him to think shes being serious to explain something that she already knew about to be able to cover up the years of not telling people the truth about her and her non human relationship with the Cullens. Example:
Just a two in the morning thought…
Mike: Oh my GOD! Your fiance sparkles!!! He isn’t human!!!
Bella: Oh your right!!! Oh Mike! How will I go on?? *snicker*
Mike: Marry me and we can have non monsterish babies!!
Alice then puts a bag over his head and dumps him the ocean… while the family laughs.
is there a way we would have to click to read the quotes of the day? I still want to get my twilight news from here, but i’m one of the few that doesn’t want the quotes before the book comes out…
Instead of trying to break down the quote to find it’s hidden meaning, I’ve evolved the quote. Here we go!
_______________
I don’t know why, but ever since I moved from Forks, I’ve been feeling… empty. I’m like a half finished jelly donut, just lying there forgotten, my yummy goodness that made me Me outside my body. And it’s weird, cause I’ve seen all my friends… except for one. Mike Newton.
I didn’t want to make Edward feel sad AGAIN, since that’s all I do, is whine, complain, and wallow in my selfish misery.
But it wasn’t working out.
“Oh, Mike! How will I go on?” I wailed into Edward’s chest. His godly, marble chest. Which I love for it’s godlyness. And marblelyness.
“Don’t worry. He will visit you!” Edward always said.
But he didn’t come.
It wasn’t until Alice was watching High School Musical that she came up with a brilliant idea.
“I’ve got it!” she said. “Mike Newton: The Musical! It can be like a giant interpretive dance or something, asking for Mike to come visit us! It’s a musical adventure! We’re going on an adventure, Bella!”
______________
-sings under her breath to the tune of “We’re all in this together”-
I really need Mike Newton!
He’s so hot!
Edward’s not!
Gonna rot,
Here without him.
I really need Mike Newton!
Or I’ll cry.
Think I’ll die.
I want pie.
Make me some nowwwwwww, oh ow!
i think that maybe it could be serious i had a random thought
so mike and bella are now on a good note
bella’s upset mike comes in to comfort her since he’s already close by
oh mike how do i go on
i can’t not now
not after this
and then mike comforts her
anyway probally completly wrong but hey random thoughts
the bad that i thought of is maybe some bad new about jake or maybe edwards get angry at her or something and she’s just breaking down with mike a good friend
still like the sarcasm idea though
caio xoxoxoxo
i think that she and Edward are talking and he brings mike up of how he wanted to date her and all that. and so Edward is just messing around with her and then she says the line…
that’s just me tho :S
Love it! I love Bella’s sarcasm! (which we all know it is!)
I agree that it’s gotta be sarcasm.
Oh yes, Scarlett O’Hara… Bella doesn’t seem exactly the type, but she’s definitely sarcastic enough. I’m actually reading Gone with the Wind while waiting for Breaking Dawn to come out.
lol :’)
If this quote ismaking everybody think about Scarlett O’Hara then could the second book that Breaking Dawn is loosely based on is Gone With the Wind??? Maybe…. Logic people. I use it on a daily basis.
… oh my gosh.
Your right!
-freaks out-
So let’s go with that idea.
Scarlett= Bella
Ashley= Edward
Rhett= Jacob
Scarlett is convinced with herself that she loves Ashley. Rhett loves Scarlett unconditionally. Scarlett chases after Ashley… loses him… goes with Rhett but still thinks about Ashley. In the end she loses both of them.
DING DONG! Team “Bella is really whiny and annoying so she deserved no one wins”!
Partay!
I’ll feel kind of sad in that fangirly way, though, if that happens. Hmm.
Hmm.. Maybe Bella decides that Mike is so much cooler than Edward or Jacob, and she decides to dump Edward. Then she goes up to Mike and says ‘MIKE! I LOVE YOU!’ and Mike says ‘Sorry, Bella, but me and Jacob are sorta together now.’ and Bella says ‘Oh Mike! How will I go on?’
Yeah. I totally have it all figured out.
I think Mike has done something stupid like ruining Bella’s dress, and now she’s totally annoyed and whiny.
personally… the release party ones should stay unlocked… but thats my opinion…
Bella being sarcastic in this one… thats what i think!
I know! This is what she says moments before she sinks her teeth into his neck and then tears his head off! Mike is her first human casualty. Poor Mike. He never should have taken such an interest in Bella in the first place. Take a hint!
Sarcastic Bella is back…YEAH
There is a whole lot of sarcasm going on in this quote!!!
I’m bored and seeming i dont need to learn how to analyze stuff til im in forth year… i’m goin to analyze this anywayz…. lmao
Bella: “Oh, Mike! How will I go on”
Bella= Isabella Swan
Oh= Surprise
Mike= Short for Micheal… As in Micheal Jackson
How= As in How are you?
Will= As in Will Smith
I= As In Bella
Go= She’s going somewhere
On= She must be turned on
Conclusion:
I think Isabella Swan is surprised because Micheal Jackson has showed up and he is asking her how she is and she is telling him how she was turned on by Will Smith in Shark Tale and now she is going off to look for him.
Voilia
interesting that we see Mike although HS is over and she doesn’t work with him anymore – i wonder why they are together??? hmm…
0_0
Eh
heh heh
…
Sarcasm, right?
…
RIGHT?!?!
*sighs*
Well I love the whole quote of the day thingy
And I totally agree with Erynn
I WANNA BE ON THAT TEAM!
Psh, yeah.
Thank you awesome lexicon peoples, as always ^.^
ahaaaa. Jesi that made me laugh
but maybe she isn’t even talking to mike. maybe one of the cullens or something. ex. EDWARD! >
bella would never say this to mike, sarcastically or not. i think this is just a little argument with edward. =D.
AHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA
Uh oh. I’ve never considered this before, but this quote has forced me to think about it: Bella and Mike? *screams “NO” very loudly*.
Team Mike anyone?
sooo funny.. at first i thought bella is sharing some problems with mike newton and just used the expression “oh mike! how will i go on!”. but probably its sarcasm..:)) haayyy.. cant waiiittt:((
I don’t think Bella would say this to Mike. sarcastic or not. ^^ I think she’s either talking to Alice, Edward, or Emmett (just cause she’s always so sarcastic with him)
Boooreddd still…. (A Song To The Tune of Avril Lavgine’s Girlfriend)
Hey Hey, you you
I wanna be your girlfriend
no way no way
I’m being totally sarcastic
Mic-hael new-ton
I think you are rally haw-wt
Hey hey, you you
I wanna be your sex-slave
no way no way
I’m still being totally sarcastic
Ed-ward Cul-len
I really do wanna be your why-if
(From Bella’s POV to Mike then Edward in the last 2 lines btw lmao!)
(why-if = wife…. its hard seprating a word with only 1 syllable into 2 lmao!)
-Jesi x
i swear that it will be like a play or something like that for school. either that or done out of sarcasam to someone else(when mike not even there) maybe thats my gut instinct!
My friends and I agree: It’s either sarcasm or THE BEST PLOT TWIST EVER.
It’s probably sarcasm… I’m SOOOOO glad that Mike won’t just be forgotten in BreakingDawn!!! I CAN’T WAIT!!!!
