twilight madness, harry potter madness

I know there are different translations of Twilight series now and it is so happen that someone I know who is a bilingual just recently bought a simplified chinese version of the Twilight series. Yap! She already owns the english version of the books with the original covers and she told me that she's thinking of collecting the english version with the movie covers...ehhhhh! It's Twilight madness according to her, jeje! I definitely feel for her, honestly! Well, with me and my sis Ruthie, it's called Harry Potter madness. Why? Well, simply because we still both live with our parents and we both have our own copies of the HP movies. She has vcd copies of movies HP1 to 5...and I have the vcd and dvd copies as well. Once, our Mom asked us why the need for so many copies since we are both living under one roof...she even told us we might as well have a Harry Potter Rentals because I also have the soundtrack albums and the books, hehehe! I answered her that we will not live together forever and what if we want to watch and the vcd or dvd player is not working...we are just preparing for that day whichever comes first, jeje! Come to think of it...if there's a Tagalog version of Twilight or Harry Potter I might be tempted to buy, too. As for now, I need to buy a special boxed-set of HP books that I promised Ruthie...weeeee!

harry potter 6 sticker book (from boss with love)

Thanks to my boss for the Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince Sticker Book that she gave me the other night. So sweet and thoughtful of her to buy it especially for me, don't you think so? She knows that I love Harry Potter stuffs and I will definitely appreciate it. Sad to say, I need to collect all the 360 stickers for this book alone which will amount to 1080 HKD (roughly more than 6000 Php...whoa!). Well, I'm calling now to those people who love me dearly...you know what to give me, jeje!...just kidding. To my boss, thanks so much!

harry potter and the half-blood prince day

I know! I know this post is long, long time overdue since I watched the movie last July 19 and it's over two weeks now. Anyway, few days before that special day I asked my friend to buy three movie tickets just to be sure that we can watch it that coming Sunday. I was going to watch the movie with Jenefer and Donna, a fellow D'Wizards...and all was planned. What we didn't plan is the coming typhoon from the Philippines that hit Hong Kong that Saturday night. It was signal number 8 that night and when I went out very early the next morning (around 6:30a.m.) bus services were suspended. Yay! I need to arrive before 8 a.m. in the church so I took the trains even it's the long route. The morning passed-by rain-free until the time for our scheduled screening and Donna hasn't arrived yet. Well, what to do? The rain was still heavy in their place which is almost practically in the other side of Hong Kong from the movie house. She was few minutes late. As expected, some parts of the book are missing and some are changed. Personally, I was waiting for Harry-Ginny moments and the last scene of Dumbledore. I must admit I cried twice...during the cave and Albus' death scene. All in all, I enjoyed the movie because the affects are great and enjoyed the day because I was with Jenefer and Donna. For more of the movie's reviews and spoilers please visit Ruthie's site.

The actor who plays Harry's best friend is now working again on the set of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. The 6th installment of the Harry Potter will be shown on July 15. To Rupert, get well soon!

harry and ginny movie poster!

I'm going to faint! Really! Definitely! I'm waiting for this movie for so many years now...maybe for 8 years. No exaggerations! Since I first held the first Harry Potter book that I red (which is the HP3, hehehe!) I've been waiting for the day of the realisation of my dreams...my dreams for Harry and Ginny! And now, they are starting to come true...well, in HP world at least. Better calm myself now, LOL! Here's the movie poster my favourite couple. Weeeee!!!!!

harry potter 6 movie posters

Yehey! My long wait is over! Partly. I went yesterday to Broadway Palace Cinema, with Jenefer and Beth, to inquire if we can purchase now in advance the tickets for Harry Potter and Half-Blood Prince movie which will be shown on July 15. Unfortunately, the tickets are not yet available, huhuhu. It only proves that ganoon kami ka-atat, hahaha! So, for consolation we saw these life-size posters of the HP6 and took the liberty to take some pictures despite of many onlookers, hehehe! I DON'T CARE!!! It's Harry Potter we are talking here guys, LOL! So, I want to share some of our pictures which I promised my sister, Ruthie, that I will post right away!

emma watson to quit?

The actress who plays Hermione Granger may soon give up acting if she will not receive offers she feels strongly about as much as she felt for the Hermione role. I really feel sorry for all Emma Watson and Harry Potter movies fans out there if this will happen. Although I personally think she acts a little too much but then again she's been a part of my Harry Potter world. So, just keep your fingers cross and hope that she will continue to do movies after the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
