So I got a little lazy... ¬.¬; Anyways, to make up for it, here's the post of everything that I've been up to for approximately the past week.
Friday, July 20: I hung out with ollau. She picked me up around 11am-ish and we dropped her sister off at summer school first so we could also go say hello to Senora. She's so sweet and she liked our shirts. =3 Especially since we were kind of dressed alike (not on purpose!). Then we went to go eat at In 'n Out. Yum! We drove around for a bit since we couldn't decide what theater to go to. Also, we arrived at one theater but were already 10 minutes late for Ratatouille... so we drove to the other theater and were still late for it. We decided to take a chance with it anyway. Luckily, we got there right before the Pixar short film started. It was so cute!!! Ratatouille was pretty good, too. I love Pixar.
After the movie, we both went home to go eat and rest up for the... Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Book Release!!!! ^___^ I got there at 9pm, but KP and the others were already there and they had silver wristbands. I got stuck with blue, and so did BLam. D: But KP's hunny bunny brought us pearl milk tea! =3 They gave away glow sticks, which they called "free wands". oO But I especially enjoyed the "Trust Snape" and "Snape is a very bad man" stickers, although I only got one "Trust Snape" sticker. I ran into Kathleen, Calvin, and Ana. Calvin and Ana ran over to WalMart to get their copy though. Haha. Honestly, this release wasn't as great as it could have been. We ended up just chilling and look at books. We even resorted to "Where's Waldo?" books! I heard in NY they had ice sculptures, Life House, and stuff! ::jealous:: It was still fun though. Don't get me wrong. I mean, I got to get the book around MIDNIGHT! (technically 1:15-ish) =/
Saturday, July 21: I couldn't sleep at all. Phooey. The worst part was that I had to wake up around 9am to go to my optometrist appointment, too. Of all the days... it had to be this day. T.T I didn't have to drive, so that was cool, and my uncle took us all to get sushi too. I picked out my new frames (although I'm not sure if we're really going to get 'em since I'm not eligible until January) and they're emo, too. Woohoo... haha. I was only able to read three chapters of Deathly Hallows today, too. Poo. That's more because I spent the rest of the day finishing Gundam SEED. ^^;; I only had 10 episodes left!! Overall, really good series. I love Kira and Athrun! Mwu La Flaga's awesome too! ::glomps:: The music is lovely, too. I'm listening to the soundtrack right now. Rie Tanaka's songs make me want to cry.
Sunday-Thursday, July 22-26: **SPOILERS for Deathly Hallows ahead!!!**
I finally finished Deathly Hallows on Thursday morning around 6 AM!!!! ♥ Sunday and Monday was pretty slow... I think I only got up to chapter 15. But Tuesday I read a whole ton. Wednesday I had class so I didn't pick up the book until midnight and I spent 6 hours reading the last 200 pages! I think DH might be my favorite! Well, at least the last 200 pages. Especially Chapter 33: The Prince's Tale. ♥ I honestly thought that JKR might have forgotten about Snape but oh my gawd! Ollau and I had made a list of predictions for DH and a lot of them came true: Snape is good, Harry's a horcrux, Peter Pettigrew dies, something is significant about Harry/Lily's eyes, Ron and Hermione get married and have babies, and Ginny and Harry get married and have babies. =) And honestly, I didn't know that there was going to be an epilogue so... haha. I didn't want Lupin to die though. ::sniff:: The last Marauder, too. I wanted at least one to survive the war. Wah! Neville was frickin' awesome when he stood up to Voldemort and so was Mrs. Weasley against Bellatrix!!! I'll have to admit that the first half of the book is kind of slow, but the little scary moments kept me going like Godric's Hallow and Malfoy Manor. Jeez. I actually cried when Dobby died. It wasn't completely my fault though since I was listening to the Pirates 3 soundtrack and it was a really sad song playing at the time, too. And might I add that Kreacher is absolutely adorable and that I want one! Haha. =3
**SPOILERS for Deathly Hallows above!!!**
The rest of the day, I spent watching Gundam SEED Destiny. Yes, that's how I cope with the depression that is the end of Harry Potter... I watch more anime. XD
Friday, July 27: I went to go see Hairspray with ollau and sister. I didn't really know what to expect, but I really liked it. I actually liked it more than Grease. oO; The music is really catchy and to see Christopher Walken and John Travolta tango is seriously something one cannot live without. Haha. Zac Efron looks crazy different than his High School Musical self and really hot! Plus, James Marsden is a sexy singing/dancing tv host! Rawr. =3 After the movie, we walked around the mall for a bit so ollau's sister could go school shopping and then we went back to ollau's house to watch a bit of Top Model before dropping me off at home.
Saturday, July 28: I finished watching Gundam SEED Destiny. Honestly, it's not as great as SEED, but still pretty good. It had a much happier ending, although I felt that the plot didn't completely reveal itself until the last five episodes. =/ The new main character had iffy character development and I felt no sympathy for him whatsoever since they would juggle between him and the original main characters. Although I must say, Rey is so adorable! I just want to give him a great bear hug and I'm jealous of his bouncy soft wavy blonde hair. ><;;
Yesterday, I went driving around the DMV. I think I'm so going to fail. T.T I'm so scared especially since I really need to get my license before I head back to college. ::sigh:: Also, I think I've seriously given up exercising. x.x I have no will whatsoever. I'm like a zombie~ =.=
Oh! While I was finishing the last few pages of DH, my mom walked into my room around 5am thinking that I had left my light on before falling asleep. But she saw me reading instead and told me to go to sleep. I said, "I can't!!! They're fighting Voldemort RIGHT NOW!!! You can't expect me to sleep now!" She just laughed and then closed the door. =D

Thursday, July 19, 2007I'm getting the book tomorrow night! Oh I'm so excited!! =) And to all of you who have your hands on the leaked version... I'm sorely disappointed. T.T I mean... I always thought that the magical part of it was getting the book the same time as everyone else will get it... meh. I'm a dork.
In other news, I don't know what to do about this site. I'm not going to kill it... but I'm not going to journal here regularly anymore... livejournal has stolen that spot. =/ I'll just post randomly I guess... haha.
Gundam SEED is teh awesome. XD I like it. I'm only on episode 33... but I just started watching it on Tuesday... XDDDD I'm addicted!
