I swear all I do here anymore is complain. Today is going to be no exception. Remember last time how I mentioned that my boss told me they 'didn't have any hours' for me anymore? After two and a half weeks of that they called me and asked if I wanted to come back. I danced around the house in my underwear (sorry Louie, you shouldn't have had to witness that) and went back the next day. Got to see my friends again, earn a wage and fill in time so it was amazing. I was back for three weeks and then I get told the same fucking thing. They don't have hours for me. They asked if I wanted to be put 'on-call' which I'm only fine with because I seriously need to save for Europe but now I'm back to job hunting AGAIN.
Whatever.
Onto Harry Potter. Um. Amazing. I went to see DH1 at about 9PM on the 12th then DH2 and 12:10AM. I didn't really get as emotional as I thought I would. I mean, I cried but I wasn't sobbing like I assumed I would be. Most of it absolutely blew me away and I'm so glad there's only a couple of things I didn't like (skipping the Percy reunion, not much focus on some of the deaths etc.) But for the most part I fucking loved it. I went to see it again last week with my mum and.. being emotional the second time would be an understatement. I don't know why it affected me so much more the second time around. But in all honesty I think it was more thinking about the book than the film itself because I didn't cry until we'd left the theater:
Mum: Why did you cry? It wasn't that sad.
Me: He just... *starts crying uncontrollably* LOVED HER SO MUCH!
Mum: What? Who?
Me: SNAAAAAAPE!
And then it went on from there with me telling her every little thing that made me cry (including things like Neville becoming a professor, the fact that it was the last HP logo I'd ever see, etc). Fun times.
Other than work and HP not much else has been going on. Have mainly just been filling my spare time with anything to do with Playboy, stretching my ears (my left lobe is finally finished at 10mm but I can't get the 8mm to go through my right lobe) and hanging out with Brooke, Gabby, Jesse.
And now - the job hunting begins.

I'm awesome.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry about your job being a prick. (Yeah, blaming the job not the man...) I hope you find work soon though!
ReplyDeleteI need to see HP again!!! I've only seen it once and I feel like I'm missing out on so many details and such ! ahhh ! x
Oh. My. God. I was bawling when Harry was in the penseive. But it was kind of cathartic that everybody ended up loving Snape in the end. I'm glad they put a lot of emphasis on that scene. Neville made me SO proud, from who he was at the beginning to the person he became. I feel like I felt that more in the movie than I did with the book.
ReplyDeleteThankfully I don't remember a lot of the book at this point though because them missing details always upsets me too. But now that it's all over I feel like I need to read the whole series again. It's definitely not over!
Small world, I'm stretching my ears to around 8mm too! :) How long did it take you to get there? I'm only at 2mm right now and I don't know how long I'm supposed to wait before going up a size.
Good luck with the job hunt! Sucks that they're doing that to you but at least you get to fill in sometimes. Life tends to be more interesting when you're busy, I find.
I hate it when blackberries/iTouches/etc. do that! All I wanna do is type something moderatly-almost long WITHOUT having it deleted :P But, alas, it's not possible.
ReplyDeleteThe lakehouse was OK. I have vertigo, so I was pretty much stuck in one place while everyone else could go swimming and hiking :c Why, yes. I will still sulk about that :P
And OK, crying when Snape shows everything to Harry is TOTALLY OK. Because it's a part you should cry at. Like when Dobby...Oh God, what have I started D:
As for your boss, I'm sorry you're having problems. I just found out my boss decided not to pay me what I was told I would get (by over 1K) and call me a name on my final check. He's a douche.
They didn't show Draco and Harry acknowledging each other! I thought that was pretty significant. Apparently, there was this brief moment in the movie when Harry returns and George turns around saying "Fred" and realises his twin isn't there anymore. A bit more attention on that would have made it so so so much better. I don't really like the battle between Harry and Voldemort either. :( But other than that I thought it was brilliant and I couldn't stop crying from the point Snape died all the way to when Harry enters the Forbidden Forest and uses the Resurrection stone.
ReplyDeleteAlso, all the best with job hunting! I hope you find a job ASAP!
Yeah school is something to do all day. I know it gets boring but at least you've got something to do!
ReplyDeleteI've decided to do some nail tutorials seeing as everyone thought it was a good idea! :D
sorry for the late reply, I’ve been working on the site. Which is now open BTW! :D
I'm a little late on this one but I hope the job stuff gets better. I completely know where you're coming from, after the issues I had with the pub. I'm looking for work as well, since I'm not getting enough hours at Collins.
