(this may contain spoilers, you've been warned)
I recently got into the hunger games series (like 2 weeks ago) I read them so fast, Catching Fire only took me like 4 and a half hours. My mom even got into them (She's becoming a fan girl! She even cried when Katniss said goodbye to Prim! She said it was because it reminded her of me and my sister), so we went to the midnight showing of The Hunger Games.
It was amazing! Pretty much just like the book. Of course there were a few parts that were added or taken out, but it's understandable, it was already 140 minutes. The actors were phenomenal, Josh Hutcherson makes an amazing Peeta! He's just adorable! They all better win awards. And the costumes were amazing too, I liked the flaming dress.
One thing I didn't really like was how in the end Peeta didn't find out she was just acting. I think that would have been great, like a cliffhanger. Also, Peeta got to keep his leg. You go Peeta.
I don't understand why the UK edited it, it wasn't that gory. Yes, there was killings and blood, but not a huge amount. I'm sure Mockingjay will be much bloodier.
Speaking of Mockingjay, I just finished it. I don't know how to describe my emotions! Especially about the end! I'm glad she ended up with Peeta, I never really liked Gale. And poor little Prim...I cried when she died. But I hate the people who think it ruined the whole story, it made it real, added so much emotion. If everyone lived and it was all happily ever after it wouldn't be as good. Like in the end with Peeta and Katniss being so broken, but helping each other repair themselves made it so good. Sad, but it was beautiful. And how Peeta wanted kids? Oh my gosh, that was cute! I want a guy like Peeta...
Okay, okay my little Hunger Games ramble is over. Now I must wait until November 22 for Catching fire....
Oh one last thing, a funny story. So last night I just got 3 hours of sleep, and I was outside cleaning and this huge wasp started buzzing my head, I freaked out picturing Katniss and the tracker jackers in my head and ran in the house.
Yeah, I don't think I would survive the Hunger games. Well, I might. If I volunteered for my sister, to win it for her. But it also depends on what the Arena was like and who I was up against. And if I had my own Peeta...
Anyway, this will be hunger games week on this awesome blog!
Also look at my cool Girl on Fire nails!

I've been neglecting my blog..
Oh my, I haven't posted anything in a while...But I have a perfectly good reason! Okay, maybe not to some of you.
Sherlock. Sherlock, Sherlock, Sherlock.
Okay, maybe Benedict Cumberbatch too.
There's my excuse. Also Doctor Who.
They are AMAZING! Steven Moffat and Mark Gratiss are amazing writers, the stuff they write is just wow. I finished the first season of Sherlock in 2 days. Now it's all I can think about. I have to wait until May for the second season. May:| But Tumblr has kinda ruined it for me.
So I've decided to try to figure out how Sherlock fakes his death. Before the third season. All Moffat has said is that we've missed a big clue.
He can be really sadistic to us fans.

Went to the mall yesterday. I got a snazzy unicorn necklace and some cool earrings from Forever 21. I didn't get any clothes because the store was really small. It was weird because the mall was huge.
Anywho, can you believe it's Christmas Eve? It's like the beginning of December goes by so slowly, the BAM! It's Christmas Eve! Yesterday I finished shopping for my mom, so I'm pretty much done. Except for my two best friends.
Yes, I know I'm a bad friend for waiting so long.
But they aren't any help. I keep asking them for ideas, they always say they don't care or know. So I think I'll just get them a BORT. Bag Of Random Things. But what kind of random things?
Fashion scarves?
Hipster glasses?
Keys?
Candy?
Bubbles?
Rings?
Socks?
Glitter?
Crayons?
*sigh* I don't know how my mother does this.

Harry Potter and the deathly hallows part 2 was AMAZING! It certainly ended with a bang. They even did the 19 years later. I'll admit I cried a little. Like when I saw how caring Snape was....
Anywho, I'd like to point out a few things I wish they had put in the movies, that would have made them, awesomer.
Peeves. I mean they had the other ghosts...and Peeves did that awesome song when Harry killed Voldemort..
When Harry, Ron, And Hermione see Neville and his grandma visiting his parents. And his mom gives him the candy wrapper...
Or when Dudley tells harry he doesn't think he's worthless...

Harry Potter
Last year, I won tickets to Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 2 at the IMAX, on a radio station call in contest. Caller 25. It was at 7am. But well worth it. I'm kind of obsessed with Harry Potter. Then this year I told all my friend and family that I would win tickets again. And of course they would just roll their eyes and say sure. But I did. Monday night around 10. I had called and it was ringing and ringing, I almost hang up. But I didn't, and I heard 'Hi! You're caller number 25!' I was so excited! I almost like forgot my name! And on this station, I can always get though. Maybe not win but I can always be caller number whatever.
So Friday at the IMAX, I will be seeing Harry Potter. On opening day. For the last time. But Like J.K. Rowling said: 'Whether you come back by film or by page, Hogwarts will always be there to welcome you home" So I will visit Harry and the gang again and again. And someday with my kids. And Harry Potter will live on, in all of us fans.

I'm counting down the days until Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 2 comes out, 9 days. I'm sad it's coming to an end. Of course I couldn't have been a Potter fan for all the movies, I was only like 3 or 4 when the first came out on VHS. And the books came out in the US months after I was born.
I really can't believe it's in 9 days...it seems like just a month ago it was November.. I kinda want JK Rowling to make another Harry Potter book. Maybe about their kids. But even if she did, Daniel Radcliffe said he wouldn't be in the movie, if they made one. Made enough money I suppose. But still, he could earn so much more. I think Rupert and Emma would do another movie, but I dunno.
Anyway, after a decade of movies, it finally must end. I suppose if it went on forever we'd get sick and tired of it, but we're the Harry Potter generation. We grew up with him. Even after reading about Dobby, we feel sad for him. In the last book when people die, we still get teary eyed. When we see a lightning bolt who do we think of? Harry. Harry Potter will live on though. It is the series of books/movies of the century. JK Rowling, I hope one day I can make a book half as good as yours.

Can you believe that Wednesday was the longest day of the year? And now the days will slowly get shorter? I can't. I mean it's still June! It's depressing to think about summer being over.
After that one day of the year,
The one that's the longest,
Summer starts to slip away.
Slipping though our fingers like sand at a beach,
The days that once passed so slowly,
Now pass by in a blur.
The slow days we once hated,
We cling to,
Begging summer to stay.
But soon school; the dark cloud that looms above us,
Consumes us.
Then the process repeats itself over.
