*fangirl scream* Almost time to see Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part II. I'm so very excited and happy, but it's a bittersweet joy because it is the final film. No other book or movie series has ever commanded my attention like this and it is so sad that this is the end. I think back about attending the midnight openings of the previous ( Read more... )

Here is the Q&A list from tomorrow's thefridayfive.

1. have you ever really lived outside the country of your birth? why or why not? ( Answer )

SQUEE!!! Please pardon the capslock and excessive use of exclamation points, but I'm so excited. I just received an email alert, and tickets for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part II are now available for sale in my area. I just purchased IMAX tickets for the Friday* midnight showing in Dublin. I didn't think I would want to go to another ( Read more... )

*primal scream* I haven't been around LJ much these past few days because I'm always running around and doing things. December is always a crazy-busy time of the year for me, but it seems like this year (measuring from the past two weeks) has been even busier. Yesterday, I was so stressed out that I was snarky and evil-tempered with people. Of ( Read more... )

*collapses on sofa* Whoa, I almost forgot what it feels like to sit down and have time for myself. Though I had most of the week off, it felt like my life was stuck in fast-forward mode because I was so busy (doing mostly fun things, but busy nevertheless). I've managed to keep up with my NaBloPoMo commitments, but not RL updates. I'll start there ( Read more... )

Whee! My friends and I just finished our drinks at Starbucks (I really like the peppermint hot chocolate) and we're about to go to the theater to see the midnight showing of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1. *bounces with excitement* After what happened last year with that headache of a line, I insisted that we see it at a smaller venue ( Read more... )

I finally had some time to write about my recent family trip to Orlando, Florida and upload a few pictures. I took almost three hundred pictures and that doesn’t even include the video files. Please let me know if you have trouble viewing the pics. This vacation was a birthday present from my parents and they gave me free rein to plan the whole ( Read more... )

• I went to see Valentine's Day with friends today. The woman in front of us at the entrance was angrily arguing with the ticket taker. She apparently wanted to see the "Harry" movie but her ticket said something else. The ticket taker was politely explaining that there was no "Harry" movie and the woman was becoming more livid with each passing ( Read more... )

Whee, it's Christmas Eve. I'm relaxing right now, but in about two hours, I will be meeting up with my family to take pictures before we go to midnight mass. It's one of our family traditions-midnight mass followed by a simple meal of chicken soup, bread, cheese, and fruit. Then we stay up as long as we can watching holiday films. I usually conk ( Read more... )
