Well friends, that's it.  The Harry Potter movie series has come to an end.  I'm sad, but as Neen said of herself with Smallville - I'm taking this fairly well!

Suuure I cried at certain crucial parts (that I also cried at in the corner of a hotel room 4 years ago when I was reading it :P ), but once that passed I was alright.

I really liked the ( Read more... )

Went to see Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince today.  Anybody who read my livejournal/has known me through my reading of the HP books back...oh...what was it...4-5 years ago (wow! :o ) knows how crazy I've been about these books/movies - especially HBP.  It is, indeed, my favourite of the books, and because of that I was really worried about ( Read more... )

I can freely post pics of my wand!

Okay, so back-story:  won the HP contest on facebook.  Got myself a wand, but I also got a wand for my best friend (Dinithi).  She has been such a trooper, trying to get me into HP for almost 10 years.

I was always me spiteful self, though and never would read the books.  But then, finally, I gave in and here I am ( Read more... )

This is the story of how Severus Snape - Professor of Hogwarts, Former Death Eater and Action Figure extraordinaire - took over the top spot... on my computer monitor.

At last glance, the prized spot above my computer screen was taken up by young (er...make that 3000 year old...) Legolas Greenleaf, pretty-boy-elf.

Went to see Sweeney Todd with Dinithi, Dilini and Dilshan today.

Don't want to do a big review or anything on it for I am feeling super lazy, but my overall thoughts:

- morbidly disturbing... I can never look at a meat pie the same way again.  Thankfully I don't eat meat pies, but now I told Dinithi she never can too... ewwww.
