Harry Potter! Saw it!

I saw Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix on its first day of showing here in the Philippines. That's quite a feat for me. I usually am the last person to watch a movie after it has been shown for, like, weeks already. Anyway I watched it at Robinsons Galleria and when I was about to enter the cinema I saw, in full glory of their yellowish-colored uniforms, about 20 highschool Povedans queuing up at the door. I hesitated and checked my ticket. Yes, it's Cinema 3. Correct. So I watched the movie with about 4 rows of Povedans behind me. Simultaneous "eeeewwwww"s and "aawwww"s and "nooooo!"s (when Harry kissed Cho Chang), tormented me. Unfortunately they're the kids who love to mix English and Tagalog in one sentence. The kind of Taglish that usually gives me mental cramps.

Ok enough with them. The movie was good. You wouldn't go "OH MY GOD THAT WAS THE GREATEST MOVIE! EVER!" after watching it, but you can't deny it was good. Harry and Cho's relationship was close to nonexistent which is fine with me. I never liked Katie Leung as Cho Chang, anyway. Now there's nothing we can do about the movie's casting so it was good that they didn't play-up their romance.

I can't wait to read the final book! As we wait, go check the movie out. But first, look below. She friggin' creeps me out.

A big THANK YOU! to all the people who greeted me on my birthday. Does 22 really feel old?
