More Vampire Diaries Spoilers!

TV Guide had some Elena scoop and the diaries from season 1 are mentioned:

Who will Elena lean on during her transition on The Vampire Diaries? — Jennie

NATALIE: The better question might be, “What does she rely on?” Remember in Season 1 when both Elena and Stefan wrote in their journals? Expect a significant callback. If these pages could talk, we’d love to know what it would say when she writes, “Dear Diary, I am now a vampire.”

TV Line has a mysterious little spoiler:

Question: Please, what do you have on Vampire Diaries? —Maxwell

Ausiello: I have a good piece of advice: Watch Episode 7 live. And in the company of friends. And with lots of alcohol (or root beer if you’re under 21). And with copious snacks.

Wonder what’s that all about?
