Harry Potter and the Crazed and Obsessive Fan-Girl.

Soooo... The new Harry Potter film is coming out soon. Like in a little over a month. And I'm kind of freaking out. Why are you freaking out you may ask? Well... Because 12 years of my 21 years of life has been filled with the obsession that is Harry Potter. What am I going to do when this chapter of my life has officially come to an end? What am I going to do when the final movie comes out on DVD and there will be nothing new of the Harry Potter world coming to life, because everything is official done with? I fear I'm going to be one of those people who live in the past and I'll be telling my kids all about the time I stood in line for midnight openings, and how those were the days. Uggg! I sound like a grandma.

You may be thinking, stop being such a drama queen. Harry Potter couldn't have taken up that much of your life. Well.. let me tell you... From the moment I picked up my first Harry Potter book my life changed forever. I know that sounds dramatic, but it is so true. When I read I become so engrossed, a natural disaster could be happening around me, and if it's a good book, like Harry Potter, I wouldn't notice a god damn' thing. I feel like Harry, Hermione, and Ron have become members of my imaginary, awesome, fictional family. When Harry went through things I was right along side him cheering him on. When the golden trio were fighting I wanted they so desperately to get back together. And the many times I thought all hope was lost, I was beyond devastated.

Granted I sound like a crazy person, but this is truly how I feel about the Harry Potter books. when I finished the last book, it really was quite bitter sweet because it was over. I knew the ending, but there was going to be no more stories of the-boy-who-I-fell-in-love-with. I felt like, well now what? So what I did I do, I immediately started to re-read the last book again. I was in such a state of shock that ther serries was officially over that I NEEDED to re-read so I wouldn't go into a deep dark depression. I'm dramatic, so sue me.

What about the movies? you may ask. Well, like any TRUE Harry Potter fan, I hate them. Well I don't hate them but I'm not as in love with them as I am the books. The only reason I go to midnight movie openings is because it is Harry Potter. I'm one of those people who complain about what they left out of the movies, and how horrible the acting is, and how I could have potentially written the screen play much much better. But at the same time I love it, because anything to do with the Harry Potter universe I'm instantly love it.

So after I finished the last book I at least had the movies to look forward to in my Harry Potter universe. But now that the last movie is coming out soon, what am I going to do? How am I going to react to this major chapter in my life coming to a close? What will my life amount to? Okay so I know that's dramatic but it's how I feel okay... I know I'll get over it eventually, but right now in this moment, I'm kind of freaking out just thinking about it.

So I guess to get over this I'll start re-reading from the beginning. I have about a month and a half. Let the Harry Potter reading marathon begin!

The AI Robots, Dug Holes in My Tangled Up Heart

So I recently got a new DVD and I honestly just can't stop watching it. In the past like five days I think I've watched it at least 20 times. And I even lent out the DVD to a friend for a day... Granted I watched it at her house one and a half times.... But... I mean I went a whole night without the DVD.... But I made sure I got that shit right back the next day... Hahahahaha...? I mean it doesn't seem normal to be watching this over and over again... And when I mean over and over again, mean quite literally the second it's over I'm hitting the replay button to start the movie again from the start.

So I'm crazy(what's new right?), but ya'll must be thinking WTF YO? What DVD is this where you are watching it over and over again and just can't seem to get enough of it? Well, before you make any judgments I just need to say, I have no f-ing clue! I don't know why I have such a need to be constantly watching this movie! And I also have to say I'm not watching-watching it the whole time... I mean I'm doing other things while watching this fine DVD, like typing out this post for example, or playing a game on my iPad, or like browsing Facebook. So I mean it's not like I'm glued to the screen watching-watching this movie. It sort of kind of just plays in the background of my life.

With that said, the DVD I've been watching like a crazy maniac is... Tangled. Yup, you read right, the Disney version of Rupunzel. Uggggg.... I know right?!? I'm like a six year old girl who is obsessed with a Disney princess. I really honestly have no clue why I feel so compelled to watch and watch...

Okay confession time, I know exactly why I'm so compelled to watch and watch, it's because I love the music, and I think all the characters are so lovable. And who doesn't sometimes feel like a person stuck in a tower, with no where to go? Who doesn't have dream that they want fulfilled? And who doesn't want to fall in love and live happily ever after? I'll tell you who, robots. That's right soul-less robots who have no human emotions, unless you live in some alternate "Artificial Intelligence" universe, where suddenly robots can feel and in that case it's apocalypse now bitches! (that's right I made an AI reference, deal with it.) But now I can never tease anyone ever again for obsessing over a movie.

I remember the summer before I entered high school my cousin and I went to go see the movie "Holes". It was a good movie and to this day I still think it's one of the best book to movies I've ever seen, but my cousin LOVED this movie. Well it was a little more than love for her. She made me go see it with her again and again(she was lucky it was playing at the dollar theatre or else I wouldn't have gone to see it with her)... And then when it came out on DVD, forget it! She admitted to watching it everyday when she came home from school. I remember thinking gah, isn't she sick of that movie yet? luck for her though, she out grew this phase and no longer watches the movie "Holes" everyday.

But now it's like 8 years later and now I'm the person watching a ridiculous movie over and over again. Well actually it's a very good movie, it's just ridiculous how overly obsessed I am with it. Hopefully like all other things, I'll get over this weird ass obsession in a week or two. We can only hope.
