6 Feet of Fun!

I'll get around to explaining the title in a moment but first I have to say that I dyed my hair last night and added more this morning. Last night I put a streak in my bangs, in the back, and two on each side. This morning I dyed the rest of my bangs. The colour turned outabsolutely perfect. The colour I used is Rasberry Kamekazi by Beyond the Zone. Around 6pm E came over and I did a few streaks in her hair. Both of ours turned out amazing.
Now to the title. I happened to be chewing a piece of bubble tape while I was leaving a message on P.S.'s phone. While leaving the message I mentioned that and said how I had always wanted to put the full 6 feet in my mouth. After hanging up, I tried it. Here are some tips for if the daredevil in you wants to try that. First rule in chewing all 6 feet of bubble tape: DON'T! If you must, start chewing a piece the size you would normally chew. Chew it really good before you take the next piece which should be about the same size. You want to chew really, really well between pieces because I put the whole thing in at once and almost immediatly regreted it. The thing is, this gum is really sugary and when you chew alot it makes it hard to breathe and you choke. I will never do this again but if I could go back in time I wouldn't stop myself from doing it...it's a learning experiance...just like eating a handful of salt and pepper and then washing it down with a mixture of root beer and lemonade. And on that note, I bid you goodnight.

Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince

I saw Half Blood Prince at midnight tonight and oh. my. god. It was absolutley AH-MAZ-ING!!! Sure, they changed the end but it was decent. The end, I mean, not the whole movie.

-SPOILER ALERT SPOILER ALERT SPOILER ALERT SPOILER ALERT SPOILER ALERT!!!-

They completely cut out the fight at the end and Dumbledore's funeral. And, because I am such a Harry Potter Freak, I have to point out every minor thing that they did wrong. So, it WILL contain spoilers.

  • Lupin and Tonks were together at the beginning of the film.
  • Fleur never came back. Since we're on this topic, Bill never appeared. If Fleur never came back and Bill wasn't there, how are they going to do the wedding scene in Deathly Hallows? I mean, Bill and Fleur can't just show up and say "We met again and have fallen in love. We're going to get married now." They're marriage took time.
  • Since Bill was never injured, since there was not a fight, Molly never accepted Fleur, which is totally fine, because they might not even get married now!!!!
  • The Death Eaters appeared at the Weasly house and set it on fire and they had this "children of the corn" vibe going on.

And since I can't be pessimistic without being optimistic, I'll include some things they got absolutley perfect.

  • Draco's anguish at having to kill Dumbledore
  • The room of requirement
  • The inferi
  • Harry ginving Dumbledore the potion

Since it is 3:38 in the morning, I do have to go.

Luv,

A Very Potter Musical...

...is possibly the funniest thing I've seen since Bill Cosby: Himself. I know, I know, it's hard to believe but I laughed so flipping hard! I would quote my favorite bit but I'm not supposed to use expletives =D lol. A Very Potter Musical, for those who don't know, was a non-profit musical parody of Harry Potter done for free by a group of recent college grads. The entire, roughly 2 hour, show is on youtube (http://www.youtube.com/view_play_list?p=C76BE906C9D83A3A). It's definitely my new favorite movie.

In other news, I saw Cirque Du Soliel with my friend R tonight. It was: amazing, astounding, breathtaking, insane, and I can't think of any other words right now. You can't even describe it!

Luv,
Liz

p.s. when I was on vacation, I got really bored and stuck an upraised silver sticker on my nose, took a picture and sent it to a load of people with the message "I got my nose pierced!!!". They all freaked except G who sent back: "i love stickers too" I just found that really funny.

Sooooo......

So I'm back in my own state now (although I live here it will never be my home state) and it's waaaaaaayyyy warmer here. GAH! I hate anything over 90 degrees... :P
BUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HARRY POTTER COMES OUT ON THE 15!!!!!
AAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNDDD!!!!! Andandand!
I'm gonna see it on the 14th at midnight!!!!!!! Of course, I, being the Harry Potter dork that I am, am going to be dressing up for the event. I have the Gryffindor house sweater which I will be wearing with a Gryffindor tie (it isn't a real tie but I wear it like it is and people seem to buy it. LOL!) over a collared shirt. A black skirt and black shoes topped off with a black cape. And I have a wand of course... =D And I'll probably carry around a stuffed owl or cat. I won't wear a hat though. I mean, I don't want to seem like that big of a dork ;D lol. I actually don't have a hat. (I would wear it otherwise...) My friends P.S. and E will be coming with me (if their 'rents agree) and I'm not sure if they're dressing up or not. Anywho, it will be loads of fun.

Luv,
Liz
