I claim the LIGHT side. I'm not really sure why I just want to be on that side. (that sounds weird doesn't it?)
Thank you for the fabulous giveaway! That makeup kit is sooo cool! :)
Dark would probably be more fun ;) Thanks for the giveaway!!
Light because being on the dark side would be too scary!
Dark because I'd love to be bad :)
honestly, the dark side, because it's exciting and I'm weak-willed ;)
Dark. Cause it seems like a lot of fun :D

Light, my willpower is very strong.
I would claim dark!
What an awesome giveaway, thanks!

Probably light. I was always a goody goody .
Dark all the way baby! I want that makeup :)
Probably dark... It sounds a lot more fun ;)
Gosh - I don't know which side I'd choose, as I haven't yet read the book. Looking forward to reading, and hopefully seeing the movie. :)
By the way - hope this contest is really open til february 2013, or it's over before it even started! ;)
I'd choose LIGHT! I have always been a good person LOL! Thank you so so much for this fantastic giveaway! GFC: Gisele Alvarado

Light! I'm too much of a pansy to go dark ;)

Definitely light, so as not to lose my family like Rid did:) But I completely get Lena's choice to be both.
Thank you:)
Im not sure what side i would choose- it depends. I have read the first book.i have the second but havent read it yet.. i would need more time to choose....
I'd like to say Light, but I know I'll find the Dark side more interesting... ;)
Thanks for the giveaway!
i don't know. i guess the dark side, because i'm wicked inside. :D
I would claim Light side. The Dark side just seems a little (or more than a little) out of control, and I would want to keep my abilities in check as I wished. I want to be a Palimpsest like Aunt Del!
I would claim light because I love light and shine :) dark would be interesting but I'll ho with Light ;)
Light! Because as much as I want to be badass and all, I dont want to lurk in the shadows. And at the end of the day, your intentions are what matters. :)
I like things shiny and sparkly so I guess I'd go for LIGHT.
I claim the LIGHT side! They are more cooler! I love light! it's so amazing! Thank you so so much for this awesome giveaway! GFC:Irene(Josslight089)

i'd pick the light even though im guessing the dark are much more fun. i loved the books. im very excited over this movie
I choose light cause it's more nicer that the dark.
thanks for the giveaway
The Dark side has lollipops :)..MUAHAHAHAHAHA!
I would hope to be on the Light side but you never know...
I'd say light (even though I love all the Dark characters in the book)
thanks for the giveaway!
Light of course. I want to work for the greater good. Dark side can kiss my ass.
Thanks for the giveaway!
Dark....because that describes me :)
I guess Light but honestly I am not really sure because there is something in dark side which is very attractive.
Thank you for the giveaway!
Raffle name: Artemis
Dark is always more fun :)
I want to say light but I'd probably pick dark lol... more interesting and exciting.
Light, so my life could be bright everyday :)
Definitely dark, because it suits my style better, and because it's more interesting to be on the dark side. (Plus, there are cookies!)
Thank you for the giveaway, I really hope I win.

The light side. I just don't like hurting people. Although the dark side probably has more fun with no guilt! Thanks!
Light side. But I would LOVE to be a Dark Siren like Ridley(:
Dark is much more interesting
I would be claimed for the light because I am a very friendly person and shy sometimes.but once you get to know me I get more talkative. I'm really girly and love pink :)
Hello I so would be DARK!!! have you met me yet!!! ... Oops!!! no you haven't well you should =D cause then you would so understand me yep that's my darkness coming out see told ya ...lol
Dark, because light is too mainstream
Light. I sometimes dabble into the "dark" side but I couldn't go all the way
Definitely the dark side, it's always more interesting;)
I'm a good girl...I'd have to go with light!
The Dark side is always more interesting!
LIGHT - the dark side scares me.
Light, because I do not like the dark, I do not like being mean to people!
I would Claim for Light because I think I am a fairly nice person and I don't think I could do Dark.

amazing giveaway i don't think the make up pallet is available in the UK yet!!
The dark because it sounds more fun
I would claim the Light. Fighting for the greater good, being able to be with Ethan Wate, saving the world, totally my style ;) ~Annabell
I think I'd claim the Dark b/c I want to be like Ridley...not really, but it'd be fun for a while! LoLz! :D
Dark. Definitely dark.
Dark. Definitely dark.
I still can't choose which side since I haven't read the series yet. :)
dark, it's where the action is ;P
(I wouldn't actually know, haven't read the series yet, but the dark side's always more fun, haha)
I would choose light, because I would be able to embrace life. andtruly enjoy the precious moments of life and have great experiences!
- Lasha
Lol, I claim the dark side >.< because that's just me, dark, and the dark side has cookies, haven't you seen the t-shirts?
Jennifer Dysart
I don't know! I've only read the first book and they make it seem like the dark side is so bad. But think of all the awesome powers they have and the cool clothes. :)
I'd probably be light. But I don't know, the dark side sounds kind of awesome. :)
The light side, I'm afraid of the dark!
I don't know. I'd like to make the decision after I read the book, but if I'm supposed to be bad(dark) then I'd probably be good.
Definitely light! It's just how I am.:)
GFC: kiss_shani
I think it would all depend - I want to say Light, but it would probably be dark :P
Light, because I'm a good girl! ;)
