Terrifying

I spent a good portion of the day re-reading The Red Pyramid because the second Kane Chronicles book comes out on May 3rd, and I don't remember it at all. It is good, but one of my main thoughts while reading it was how this book and The Lost Hero were very dragged out. Like, there is a look of extraneous events that happen in between. I don't know, I just feel like it could have been condensed. 


Speaking of condensing, did you see the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 deleted scenes??? EPIC! I really wish that they would have kept the Dudley and Petunia scenes. When I first saw the movie, I was really sad that they didn't include that, and I really wished that they would have put those in there. I did like the skipping stones scene, I just felt like it didn't belong in the movie, and neither did the scene with Ron and Mr. Weasley. The scene with Mr. Weasley at the Ministry wasn't necessary, but I would have preferred it in there. Which leaves me with the scene in the tent when they are talking about horcruxes. WHY THE EFF DID THEY NOT INCLUDE THAT IN THE MOVIE!!!! IN THAT SHORT MINUTE LONG CLIP, THERE WAS SO MUCH VITAL INFORMATION THAT WOULD HAVE MADE OTHER THINGS MAKE MORE SENSE!!! I was mad when I saw the movie that they didn't include the taboo thing, yet they still used it!! Gah, stupid film makers!


By the way, I'm freaking EXCITED for PORTAL 2 to come out!!! Now, I usually don't talk about video games that much in everyday life because I don't really play video games THAT often, but I am sooooo freaking excited for Portal 2 to come out because I lOVVVVVED Portal sooooo much. (Can you tell how excited I am by the elongation of my letters?) If you don't know, Portal is this awesomely, well-crafted, insane-ly-chalenging, puzzle game where you have control of two sides of a portal. That was not a good explination. Well anyway, it comes out on Tuesday, and that's basically all I'm gonna be doing for a while.

Thorns of Fairy

If a banana were to way three tons, how much would a pen cost? Oh, sorry, that was just a ice breaking question seeing as I don't really have much to say. As usual. Something fun that happened today, though, was that I went to my math class late today, so I was the last person to start the test, but then I was the first person to finish. I always finish all my tests and quizzes first in every class. It's because if I know something, then I do so I will do it and that's that. I don't like to linger on questions that I don't know, and I can't stand to double check my answers. I sometimes try to, but it's just way too painful for me to double check answers. Ew, just thinking about it. 


So today was the first day of Debate states for Jen and I would like to ask everyone to take a second and shoot some awesome-rays over in Jen's direction for a second. Did you do it? No? Then do it! Yes? Good. Now that that's out of the way. I don't know how she did today, but I'm sure she will tell me all about it tomorrow. I'm sure she did well though. And even if she didn't, that's alright because theres always next year I suppose. And if she does poorly next year too? Well, then, that kind of just sucks. Yeah, it's not like I'm pessimistic or anything. 


Fun fact: HP DH part 1 comes out on DVD tomorrow. (W00T!) And the YouTube banner/advertisement is of Harry Potter. I can't wait to watch it again. Then I can't wait to watch part 2. No. I don't want to see it! But I do! So conflicted..... "You're parents are dead, you have no family." Chills man, chills. Or as my Grandma liked to call it "Goose Pimples". LOL. Hispanic people FTW.


Oh and happy birthday Emma Watson. (Tomorrow.)
Also, thank you to Random Title Generator for this title.
