Harry Potter Movie 6
I was amongst the fray of Potter fans at the midnight showing of Harry Potter. Before the movie even started I saw the golden snitch, Voldermort, Bellatrix and a number Hogwarts students. I see people take this movie to the extreme. There were so many people there that all 16 movie theatres were open to show the movie, WOW!! The movie I thought was cute and funny, except of course the part about Dumbledore. I found it interesting that the writers could make such a sad book, funny. My favorite scenes have to be of Ron Weasley and Harry, hilarious. Overall I really enjoyed the movie.

What am I reading NOW?
I am always reading something. At the moment I just finished the Summoning by Kelley Armstrong, and guess what it's another series. I will be starting the second book the Awakening soon, but I have homework and things to finish before I can truly delve into. Okay so not really, I love to read so I will find time to read a page or two. Anyhow this book was interesting, it also deals with the supernatural theme I seem to be fascinated with. The main character Chloe Saunders the heroine, of course can see ghosts and raise the dead. I usually get freaked out by stuff like this every since I read a scary book when I was younger, may have possibly been an R.L. Stine book, I used to love those. I don't even watch scary movies, so you count me out for horror nights. But this book drew me in and it intrigued me just a bit about how the character is dealing with the realization that she has this ability. In the beginning of the book we find her as a child seeing beheaded ghosts and one that has hung himself in the basement of her home, so her family moves and the story continues to her in high school and she had not had an episode in years, then all of a sudden she sees a ghost at school and freaks. Her family then sends her to this home for disturbed kids to help them get better. But what she finds there is truly interesting.

Blogging, Oh Boy
I thought the hardest thing about creating blog would be what to write about, at least that what I heard. But through my Information Technology class, I found that adding links and sometimes gadgets can be downright frustrating. I was challenged to make it work and through the stress, exhaustion and a few tears, I was able to make it work by sheer determination. I was not defeated because I refused to accept that there was no way to get it to work. That's a life lesson, I keep experiencing or telling my brothers and friends, NEVER ACCEPT DEFEAT even if it's just good old Technology knocking you around.
Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince
This is another movie I've been waiting to see about another series I had read and listened to. I was a little disappointed last year when the release date got pushed back for whatever reason. But now my wait is almost over. The movie are so well put together and follow the books well. I feel in love with these characters three times, in the books, the audios and the movies, and have enjoyed watching the actors grow through each one. On July 15th I will be among the fray of Harry Potter Fans in line at the movie theatre.

Ready for New Moon
I am a Twilight fan and I loved most of the books, the last one left me wanting.Honestly, I found parts of it disturbingly gross. I liked the Twilight movie by itself but if I had to choose I would pick the book. The guy that plays Edward, is okay but he is not my ideal that I had in my mind. My Edward dressed better, and didn't look like he had an eternal frown. I guess the teenage Twihards love Robert Pattinson. The girl Kristen Stewart that plays Bella is perfect because she gets on my nerves, so I found that consistent with book. My favorite characters in the movie was the guy that played her dad, he was hilarious and Alice who was a favorite from the book as well . Emmett and James those are some gorgeous men. So, they will be one the good points of new moon, however brief the glimpse may be since their part in the New Moon was short. I have seen the previews and it looks like it is going to be even better than first one, and I can't wait to continue the Twilight Saga. Hopefully the makeup will be better.

What type of librarian should I be?
A couple weeks ago I took a quiz on Facebook called " What type of librarian are you" and my results were a youth librarian. I thought this was interesting because since I worked in a public library I got turned on to Twilight and Harry Potter. Since then I have become to love this type of literature. Yet, I'm not sure I want to work with the public again, it a joy and a pain. Some people are very polite and friendly some are just down right mean. I also love arts and crafts, basically anything creative. So, I took the quiz again to see what it would say again, and the result was a law librarian. That is a definite, NO. A music library or a museum library would be cool. At this point in my degree program, there is still time to grow and figure it out, one can only hope. I hope my future is filled doing something that makes me happy and that I'm good at, but right that is unknown to me.
