Yes, I'm still here. But work has eaten me alive! Not that I'm complaining - the more I work, the more money I make and the closer I am to buying my own apartment (if I stop spending the money, that is, with trips and a notebook, and whatelse) - but I'm tired, and I haven't updated in weeks!

Anyway, TWO THREE big HP fandom things!

FIRST! THE 5th MOVIE! I saw it on the premiere with a few close friends and LOVED IT! Undoubtely the BEST ADAPTED MOVIE so far, even though it still has some details missing. You can read my full account and thoughts about it here (in portuguese), but let me just resume my thoughts in 3 bullet points:

1) I LOVE THE SHIPPER SCENES IN THIS ONE! Including the R/S scene - yes, there was one, at least to me! But the best ones were the R/H ones. :) :D

2) I LOVE THE SEXTET! Luna and Neville are SOOO great! As characters, as DA members, as Harry's friends...loved it!

3) LOVED the battle at Ministry at the end. And yes, I preferred the way that character died in the movie better than the book - at least it's not a STUPID VEIL!

SECOND but even MORE IMPORTANT!

FOUR DAYS TO THE FINAL HARRY POTTER BOOK! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! *runs around the house screaming and avoinding spoilers LIKE HELL!*

A few thoughts about what I think might happen in book 7 here (again in portuguese). I just hope I'm wrong about most of them, because I want to be SURPRISED! :D

THIRD! I was invited as a special guest for the last NERDCAST! Isn't that awesome??? :D
If you want to hear me rambling in portuguese, you can go here. It's the 70th nerdcast, and, yes, it's in portuguese.

On a non-HP related subject, IS THIS TRUE??? Could Farscape BE BACK?? *praying*

After more than a year since I read HBP, I read it again. Mind you, I didn't read it before due to RL problems totally unrelated to the book or its quality. This week, though, I managed to finally re-read it!

( LONG rambling about book 6, and some comparison with book 5 )

Anyway, I *actually* wanted to make a post about what I *think* we will find in book 7, but I got carried away. Obviously. And quite expectedly! :P XD

( NOW, what I really wanted to post about, Book 7 )

And man, that was LONG. Essay long, LOL! I doubt anyone will read this, let alone comment!

Anyway, moving to lighter matters! :D

I saw the Spiderman trailer - OMFG! I in love with Sam Raimi right now, because he DIDN'T ruin the movie when he decided NOT TO SHOW VENOM! :D Link here!

And because I can't get enough of Heroes, and monday is WAY TOO FAR, two preview of next week's episode: first one here, and second one there thanks to ninth_wonders! Obviously, SPOILERS AHOY! Can't wait to find out HRG man real intentions! XD

OH, and at last but not least...DIE LANA, DIE! XD
