Harry Potter.

After the dinner non-plan, we ended up going to Colossus

to watch Harry Potter. Lucky for us, I planned that one.

I can proudly say that i held out for hmm.. 3 wks? to watch it with him.. so I was really excited to finally be able to see it.

BOY WAS IT A DISAPPOINTMENT. The movie was darker, which is not a bad point.. cuz i think any movie about witchcraft should have some element of darkness. I really enjoyed the scene about the revitalization of Voldemort too.

However, I found that between scenes, the transitions were very poor. Also, the music chosen did not enhance mood at all. oh yah, and i didn't even hear that classic harry potter theme song.. u know how it goes.. it's in all 3 movies preceding this one. IMO watching harry potter without hearing that theme song was just not right. pace of the movie was also quite slow. although harry potter is meant for a kid audience, i think this movie is more for adult appreciation.

So I give this movie 1 thumb down.. for not catering to its intended audience. By far, the best harry potter movie has got to be the third one. this one is the worst.

"Making plans is for losers"

My bf, who grew his hair out.. (i like him better bald actually. i'm kinda into the bald look i think. anyway, now his hair looks like the topless guy from the Jungle Book)

Anyway, he has this belief that "making plans is for losers". So, he absolutely refused to make reservations, absolutely refused to find out whether the restaurant had space, and absolutely refused to call ahead to make sure they were open.

In my efforts to prove him how he is totally WRONG.. i decided to go along with his non-plan of eating out for christmas dinner. Everyone was telling me that everything was closed, and so I, unlike my bf, planned ahead and had dinner at home before he picked me up, to prevent Christmas day starvation. Anyway, we drove out at around 8pm.

Stop number 1: Baton Rouge

CLOSED.

Stop number 2: Jack Astors

CLOSED.

Stop number 3: Yorklanes

CLOSED.

We passed by several other places including Milestones, PizzaPizza, McDonald's (YES, even McDonald's), Tim Horton's.. all which were CLOSED. I wanted to be able to show you guys but he drove away too fast for me to be able to snap a shot (on purpose). hehe. Smart guy. but luckily i managed to get those 3 shots. hehe

In conclusion, what is the lesson to be taught? MAKE PLANS for peat's sake!

Haunted buildings

my cousin used to work as a security guard up until 2 wks ago, cuz he heard a little girl singing.. in a completely empty building.. at 3-5am. then he asked "who's there?", and that's when he heard giggling. that's when his body went all cold for about 2 seconds. he said he felt like he walked outside in the winter without any clothes on. that's how cold it was. but only for 2 seconds.

he took pictures when it all happened.. from the footage of the security camera. here are some of the pictures. u can see ORBS.. which actually means a spirit is present. the first picture has the ORB in it.. near the middle of the photo. u can zoom in to see that it's not made by a flashlight.. it has little dots within it..

this next picture was taken 3 times.. and only in THIS shot was there a ectoplasm (the white filmy stuff at bottom right):

u can see ectoplasm in this one (white at top left):

this building is seriously haunted. my cousin is the 3rd security guard that has quit because of the hauntings. it's the ADP Building in Mississauga, ontario.. located at World drive and Hurontario.

here's a famous website that reports ghost sightings all across the world. check it out.. it's cool.. u may even find a place close to where u live!
