Harry Potter....Need a Title Say More Than That?

I have to write about Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2. My reasons...

1. Harry Potter is only one of the most incredible and MAGICAL experiences to ever grace this planet we call home.

2. Harry Potter and, by extension, J.K. Rowling is GENIUS!

3. Harry Potter has everything. Suspense, mystery, good vs. evil, betrayal, honor, loyalty, bravery, cowardliness, important of family, love, death, shock-factors, comedy, magic and a pureness and importance that will forever stay with this generation and every Harry Potter fan to ever live.

I could go on. I saw the film twice. Once on the first day it came out in 2D and then a couple days later in 3D (which was awesome since it was also the first time I'd ever seen a movie in 3D.) I cried each time during one particular scene and once (the first viewing) another. I DARE any reader to guess which scenes! I don't cry easily so that's my way of telling you that HpDhP2 has a real impact on even an unemotional person, such as myself.

There are two feelings of which I believe reside in every Harry Potter fan. Excitement and sadness. Excitement to see the final installment, to see how the cast and crew have managed to portray the last of the story that's captured and mesmerized many hearts and to see (if they've not read the books) who lives and who dies. Sadness because this means the end of the movies. Which is a tragedy that I believe cannot be escaped. Sure, when the last book came out all Harry Potter readers felt a sadness, but we had the movies going on too so it didn't really feel like it was ending.

But now, we have the last book portrayed in two movies and we come to the sudden, terrifying and sad realization that the world of Harry Potter is over in both book pages and the movie screen. 

However, Harry Potter shall always be around in our minds, hearts, movie collections, public and personal libraries, fanfiction, movie prop replica collections and even on some people bodies....I've seen far too many lightening bolts on peoples foreheads and Dark Marks on forearms and a list of other Harry Potter related tattoos. Not to mention The World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios Orlando. Which I'm still dying to go to!

So while the story ends it always remains. 

I've been a fan since the first book, I've read all seven books three times each, I have the sword of Godric Gryffindor, two original movie posters of the first two movies, all books and movies and a wicked purple Deathly Hallows hoodie with one Severus Snape on the back. And I'm still going to be collecting everything I can of Harry Potter. I'm that much of a proud neek (nerd/geek.)

Overall, the last film surpassed all my expectations and hopes.

Ramble of an Insomniac

I will never make a living as a planner of any kind. I most definitely didn't post a day, certainly didn't write a single bit unless it was involved with Twitter or Facebook...That I am most certain of since I've spent most of my summer catching up on the sleep that I missed for almost 6 months. In that time I've managed to get my whole biological sleepy time clock completely reversed. It's 3:24AM as I write, and I'm not in the least bit tired. Let's just "The Lazy Song" by Bruno Mars has been my Summer song, minus the sex with a female (and yeah, male too.)

I'm staying up until 10pm that way I can take my sleeping pills, fall asleep and stay asleep because I start school August 4th. Not to mention I have surgery the 2nd.  I have to get some matrix out of my toe, which means people will touch my foot. EW. At least I'll be knocked out with anesthesia.Two hours prep time, one hour surgery, and 1-3 hours after-wait for me to wake up, make sure I'm unaffected in any way, pain levels and all that crap. Fun eh? And why the hell i it called a matrix? Transformer's matrix is cooler, so be sure.

E.T. by the talented and exquisite Katy Perry just came on SiriusXM Hits 1....WOOHOO. One of the best songs of the year to be honest. I didn't plan on rambling about everything but I think it's best to write everything down as it comes to me. That way, I get all the ramble out now before I focus on an actual topic. 

Ah, so I'm still 160 pounds, the weights been up and down but I've been a bit more strict and have been to keep it at that number for the past three weeks. After my toe heals and I'm able to walk without hurting I'll start to exercise again. But for now I have to not to "stress my foot."

So I have a feeling I'm going to write a bit more after this. In fact I'll probably write so much I'll "stress my fingers." Gods, there's a lot of filth that comes to my mind at those three words sentenced together. 

Mind. Gutter. Out.
