Harry Potter Saturday

Finally, we got to watch Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince... yipee!!! I was in a good mood this morning (thanks to this) even as I head to the office for another working weekend. And to ensure that no one gets late to the movie, I told everyone I booked the 3pm screening when in fact the actual time was 315pm. Not only that, since I am the one holding the tickets I told them that I am not willing to miss the start of the movie because of anyone's tardiness... And boy did it work. They're all there by 245, complete with nachos and popcorns. :D

The movie was good, but of course, like most of its adaptations, it was compressed and fast paced. But I didn't mind. There were a lot of funny moments specially with Lavander Brown and Hermione. Can't wait for the next 2 films to come. In the meantime, I'll look forward to the upcoming movies on my list, also adaptations which I think will require a box of Kleenex - The Time Traveler's Wife and My Sister's Keeper. ;)

Harry Potter is back!

In preparation for the latest HP movie on July, I had my Harry Potter movie marathon last week after which I started reading book 6 (again). After a few chapters I realized there were so many stuff that was not in the first 5 movies so I decided to re-read all the HP books and hopefully finish them before the 6th movie hit the screens. I’m now the 3rd book – Prisoner of Azkaban and I’m targeting to finish it by the end of this week (I’m reading it concurrently with Jodi Picoult’s Handle with Care, whew!). Come to think of it, I barely remember what happened on the 7th book…

Sigh, I’m a child again… :)
