So i dragged myself out of bed this morning and went to church...a bit late...but i made it there...i guess i was glad that i went...Pastor said a few things that kinda touched my heart...or perhaps being in the presence of God always bring tears to my eyes...
Anyway, had dim sum at Pacific Sutera for lunch...then went to watch the latest Harry Potter instalment...the Half Blood Prince...well...one word...draggy...it lasted almost 2 1/2 hours...and i was glad when it was over...coz i really needed to go to the bathroom...i guess this one tried to stick as closely to the book as possible...they got the gist of it...but somehow, it lacked the excitement i experienced when i was reading the book...i mean, i probably took a few days to finish the book...but i wanted to keep reading coz the way the plot unfolded kept me on the edge...perhaps since i already know the story, it has lost its excitement and i kept wondering when was it going to end...and i didn't even cry when Dumbledore died...i cried when i read the book...i think..it was quite a long time ago...my memory's getting a bit fuzzy...
Few things i found quite nauseating though...the Ron and that girl (can't remember her name..no not Hermione..the other desperate one...) and all their snogging....and the Cormac trying to get Hermione's attention scenes...eeww!!! Luna Lovegood was an interesting character though...love her fashion sense, hehe...and at the end...when Dumbledore was killed...i thought i remembered that Harry was petrified which was why he couldn't do anything to help Dumbledore...and when Dumbledore died, the spell was broken then only Harry was free to go after Severus Snape and the rest of the Death Eaters...but then again, perhaps my memory is failing me....
Still, i guess if you are a Potter fan, you'd still have watched it at least once...though i still prefer the book...and when the last instalment finally opens in the cinema, i'm sure i'll still go watch it even if i may get disenchanted again...
Just a bit off track...saw the Twilight Saga: The New Moon's trailer while waiting outside the cinema...dang! they changed the scene where Laurent (and i never knew he was black) was trying to attack Bella...they were supposed to be in some clearing..not outside Jacob's house...and i take it back...the actor who plays Edward Cullen...doesn't justify the character's supposed gorgeousness...i guess only a real vampire can look as good as Edward Cullen..hehe...
