Harry Potter

Never in all my life has a series of books wrapped me up so tightly before. I absolutely LOVE Harry Potter. I have read the books through once. However, I have listened to the books on tape (well, actually MP3) "performed by Jim Dale" at least 5 times through. Sometimes when I'm bored of listening to my same old same old playlist of songs I will randomly pick a book and start listening to it while I clean my house. I remember hearing about those books for the first time before the 4th book came out. It took me a while to get them but once I started I was hooked. When the 4th movie came out I left on my mission just a few days beforehand and was super bummed out about missing it. I don't like the movies as much as the books but I still like them well enough. When the 5th movie came out I had just got back from my mission and I went to the midnight showing with Daniel. That happened to be our 3rd date. We ended up holding hands for the first time during the movie and when he walked me to the car he put one arm around my waist and continued holding my hand....just remembering that night gives me butterflies!! When the 6th movie came out we didn't go to the midnight showing but we did go the day it came out to a matinee showing while our friend watched John for us. This time things are different. The midnight showing is happening in just a few hours from how (It's 10:30pm) and Daniel and I still have no idea when we will be able to watch it. He's really busy with concerts and performances coming up and we barely see each other every day let alone have enough time to catch a movie together.

So for now I will just have to be patient and wait for the glorious day in my future when I will be able to enjoy the first part of the 7th movie. I'm so glad they cut it into 2 movies so they will be able to include more of the story instead of barreling through the book (like in HP4).


For all of you reading this post that has already seen the movie.....LUCKYYYY!!
