What Audrey wants, Audrey gets.
In this case, what she really, really, wants, is Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
She will be persuading her father to drop by the post office on Saturday, 21st July, at 6.50 in the morning to pick up the eagerly anticipated book, and then proceed to devour it within the morning.
I need to work on my oral, and stop using Singlish.
Harry Potter sucked, in my opinion. Ok, I guess it deserved the rating in Life!: 3 out of 5 stars. Just read the book and let your imagination take you. Seriously, or don't read the book and watch the movie. Either one. Or you'll end up like me. Rachel says I'm comparing it too much to the book. Well, I figured I don't really like the directing of Mr David Yates. No offence, all the effects and CGI were brilliant, but nothing was how I imagined it to be. Firstly, was Harry and Dudley supposed to be in the underpass-sort of thing when they were attacked by Dementors? (Personally I felt the Dementors in POA were waaaaaaaayyyyyyy much more fitting of the description in the book) I was under the impression that they were attacked near the street, or even on it! MRS ABRELLA FIGG DOES NOT LOOK BATTY AT ALL. SERIOUSLY. UGH. She is the worst portrayed character in the film, together with Madam Amelia Bones, and Kingsley Shaklebolt. I had no idea he was an Indian in the book! And the Department of Mysteries was SUCH a disappointment, with the Ministry of Magic, and No. 12 Grimmauld Place. Especially No. 12 Grimmauld Place. And the family tree wasn't to be SO huge. How could a cigarette bud burn out a picture as big as my face? And where was Sirius' mother? I was looking forward to meeting her. And the THRESTRALS!!!!!! NO WAY ARE THEY LOOKING LIKE THAT. FOR ONE, THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO BE SOLID BLACK, NOT GREY, AND HORSES, FOR GOODNESS SAKE!!!!!!
And, ho ho ho, the producers are going to have a problem in film 7 when Sirius comes back in book 7 (I'm fairly sure) because the dead cannot come back to life! The moment Bellatrix Lestrange (an excellent portrayal) uttered the Avada Kedavra curse, the producers were going to be in a fix. Or maybe whatever happens, they'll just treat Sirius as dead and we won't be seeing anymore of Gary Oldman for the rest of the films. If that's the case, I'm not sure I'll even be watching it!
1 and a half hours, just flew past like that. My reward for studying so hard the past week.
Time to go and bathe, and back to studying, for now.
