so long harry

unless you've been living under a rock you know that harry potter and the deathly hollows part 2 (the very last movie in the harry potter series) came out this past friday and smashed all kinds of records!...tons of people ventured out thursday night to see it a midnight...unfortunately i was not one of these people...stupid work!...haha!...but i did go right after work friday night with cool girl!...

i LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!!!...out of the 8 harry potter movies i would have to say that this is my favorite!...there was a lot of story left to be told and not a lot of time to do it in...so the movie didnt waste any time dilly dallying, it just dove right in where part 1 left off...all the important things from the book were in there...including the epilogue...i recommend every potter fan out there to see it!!!...

i gotta say that im sad that its all over...i got this feeling after i read the last book but in the back of my mind i thought well at least i have the last few movies to look forward to...but now its really over...there isnt anything else to look forward to...so now what?...i think im gonna read the books again...ive never read all 7, in order, one right after the other...so i guess i could do that...but i dont know...i always say im gonna do it, but i'll get a few chapters into the first one and then kinda forget about it...so we'll see how it goes this time...haha!!!...

harry's given me many great times since i first picked up harry potter and the sorcerer's stone back in the summer of '01 (wow! its been 10 years already!)...i have such distinct memories of when each book came out (well 5, 6 and 7...the first 4 were already out when i started reading)...i went to banes & noble for the release parties they had...haha!...and i have distinct memories of the movies...the first one came out when i was a junior in high school...my friends and i watched it on dvd ALL THE TIME...it was our go to movie (well that and jimmy neutron...haha!)

so thanks harry potter for all the memories!!!...ill miss you and your magical hold you had over me!...love you! <3

its a good time to be a fan!

this weekend was an exciting one...and anyone who is a harry potter/jets/backstreet boys fan like myself will tell you the same thing...i know none of these has anything to do with the other but it was a great weekend for all 3!...

lets start off with harry potter (*said in brittish accent*)...friday was the official opening day of harry potter and the deathly hallows part 1...(or hp7a as i like to call it...haha!)...obvi i went to see it friday...i would have gone thursday at midnight but unfortunately someone has to be responsible and go to work...so that option was out...instead i went with cool girl after work...oh.my.god...sooo freakin good!!!...i loved it so much that i saw it again on saturday night!!!....i dont really want to say to much in case you havent seen it yet...but trust me when i say this is a DO NOT MISS!!!!...the only complaint that i have is that it ended...haha!...it was 2.5 hours but i didnt think it felt that long...and then it cuts you off right when the story is going to get really good!...i know this because i read the books...*gasp* i know! i read the books? how could that be???...haha!!!...anyway i cant wait until hp7b comes out...its going to be amazing!!! =)

sunday afternoon i went to the jets game...J! E! T! S! JETS! JETS! JETS! WOOOOO!!!!!! they played the Houston texans...and wow! what a game!...they had a huge lead going into the 4th quarter and then in typical jet fashion they blew it and Houston went up...the only way we could win was with a touchdown...too bad there was less than 2 minutes left...not impossible but it was improbable...so in typical jet fan fashion the stadium emptied out...less than half the fans were still there...of course i stayed...my grandfather taught me never to leave a game early cause you never know what could happen...and boy was i glad that i stayed!!!...sanchez threw a bomb down the field to a wide open edwards...everyone went wild!!! it was another jets FIRST DOWN!!!...so then there was 16 seconds left, 1st and goal, with the ball on the 6...sanchez threw another great pass to santonio holmes right into the end zone....TOUCHDOWN JETS!!!! i thought the people went wild before...no i was wrong...this is when they went really wild!!! ahhhh!!! im not even sure i can express in words the level of excitement going on in that stadium and that moment...it was just crazy!!!

now the jets are 8 and 2...can you believe it?? 8 and 2???...its been a LONG time since the jets have had a season like this one...there arent any that i can remember clearly...its just a really fun time to be a loyal jets fan...if you stick with them long enough they are bound to surprise everyone with an awesome season!!!...im so proud of them!!!

as if that game wasnt enough excitement for one person to handle i came home to watch the american music awards...my backstreet boys closed the show with new kids on the block...hands down the BEST performance of the night!!!...if you didnt see it go to YouTube right now and watch it!!!...the who thing was perfect...i loved everything...from the opening mash up of everybody and hangin tough...to the old school clips in the background during i want it that way...to the proof they were really singing during step by step...to the awesome dance break...to the classic right stuff dance...to "all you people cant you see cant you see n - k - o - t - B - S - B!"...yeah just perfect!!!...i am sooo pumped for the nkotBSB tour next summer...i already have tickets to one show...but im def gonna need more!!!

right now is such a good time to be a backstreet boys fan!!!...so many good things are happening...this tour with the new kids is gonna be so amazing...even my mom said she wants to go!!...i just cant wait for everyone to know what ive always known...backstreet boys are here to stay!!! =)
