30 days of HP

am gonna do a 30 day of Harry Potter in a day again. i seem to have the tendency to do these challenges in the middle of the night secretly in the dark of my room when i'm supposed to be asleep. but i think its a very effective way to deal with insomnia, not that it helps but well its fun (:

and well, i'm doing all of it today because i can't wait to do Day 5 and i don't want to force myself to blog when i don't feel like it just to reach that day(actually the chances are pretty low since i seem to love blogging about random little stuff a lot).

Day 1: Your fave book. the 6th book. i don't really know how to explain, but i do think it is the book that intrigues me the most. putting aside the fact that it is mostly revolved around Draco(with Harry's obsession) and gives us a clearer picture of the boy that is only purely viewed as the nemesis in Harry's life, it is the most cruel book for me. it seems as though everything that was previously conceived was pulled apart brutally and every known fact needs to be reconsidered. such as Snape's betrayal even though its priorly staged and the Potions book. not to mention the absolutely horrifying Hocrux hunt. it seems as if this book is the book that really ripped away all the hope that readers had been harboring in their heart esp with Dumbledore's death. but i've to admit i loved this book so much because of Draco's development in character. his fear, uncertainty and devotion to his family is clearly portrayed in this book and well, he is my favorite character so that somehow works towards making this book my favorite.

Day 2: Your fave movie.

maybe the first or the second? i kind of like the settings in the first the most though. it is the movie that stuck to the book the most and i've to admit that i was shocked by how closely Daniel Radcliffe matched the image of Harry Potter in my mind.

Day 3: Is there any of the films adaptations that have made you angry because they’ve ignored important parts of the book.

actually yes. i can't think of any specific parts or scenes, but the relationship between Harry and Hermoine in the 7th part 1 movie kind of disturbs me. seriously, if i'm not a good observer and a non-Harry Potter fan just watching the movie for fun, i'll think the two of them are dating instead.

yeahh, and the Ginny in the movie is just not as cool as the one in the book, i thought the kitchen scene was weird/awkward?

btw, i thought the way Death Eaters appear is very spirit-ish. they're like flying in the air? and i have quite a big problem with it.

Day 4: Least fave female character and why.

Bellatrix Lestrange. cause she's mentally unsound and i simply cannot understand her way of thinking. its screwed up in a very horrible way but i do think Helena Bonham Carter is a great actor and i love the way she portrays Bellatrix a lot.

Day 5: Fave male character and why.

Draco Malfoy.

cause i really admire his courage and dedication to his family that he portrayed in the 6th book. his fear of being in service to Voldemort is very palpable and yet underneath all those pressure he felt, the love for his family did not falter the slightest. no matter how unwilling he is, he still did it just to keep his parents alive. it might sound cowardly to do horrendous deeds just to stay alive, but i think thats a display of courage for him. and it is then when we manage to see him as something more than the git that always think superiorly of himself and allies himself with the Dark.

idk, i just love him lots.

Day 6: What house would you want to be in.

Slytherin?

not to mention Draco Malfoy is in it, but i think i could use a bit of subtleness and i think behind the cunning-ness there must be lots of cleverness so maybe i'll be able to think up of ingenious plans after i join it. even though i've no plans to conquer the world at all.

Day 7: Fave female character and why.

Luna Lovegood.

i think she's a fascinating character. she seems to be always dreamy and spouting stuff that no one could understand at all, but for her to be in Ravenclaw, there must be a real good reason unless the Sorting Hat went crazy. i prefer to believe that in fact she's not as delusional(?) as she seems to be instead she is a character that has her own view towards a lot of things and have lots of brains but its all hidden beneath her weird actions.

Day 8: What do you think would be your fave lesson. ermm, Astronomy?

Day 9: Least fave male character.

secret.

Day 10: Horcruxes or Hallows.

Hallows. splitting souls seem painful.

Day 11: What character would you say you are most like.

none.

Day 12: Fave ship.

ehh.....

Day 13: Least fave movie.

ermm, maybe the 5th? seriously till now i still have no idea what the 5th book is about except for some snippets that i managed to remember. it just isn't the most rememberable book.

Day 14: Team Voldermort or Team harry.

can i choose Team Draco?

Day 15: Who would be your best friends at hogwarts. (three only)

idk seriously.

Day 17: Are you excited about The Deathly Hallows movie or scared it won’t do the book justice.

to be honest, i'm very very worried that it wouldn't live up to my expectations. the Deathly Hallows part 1 was okay, but i wished part 2 will be amazing since it will be the one to conclude the whole series. and i've lots of expectations of the Snape scene so i'm praying that i won't disappoint me.

Day 18: Least fave book.

5th.

i just can't seem to have an impression of what's going on in the book and i've read it a couple of times alr.

Day 19: Do you prefer the books or films.

Books.

Day 20: If you had to meet one member of the cast, who would it be.

Tom Felton. (:

Day 21: Out of all the characters that died, if you could bring one back, who would it be.

Sirius. i kind of have a soft spot for him and i dont even know why.

and Snape too, he deserves to be treated as a hero.

Day 22: Harry Potter or Twilight

Harry Potter. seriously, will i be doing this if i don't love this book?

Day 23: Any part of the books/movies that makes you cry.

not really cry but sort of only teared? when sirius died, the severus part on 7th book.

Day 24: Any particular scene you wished would have been put in the movie but it wasn’t.

srsly i can't rmb now. will try to compile a list the next time i watch the movie again.

Day 25: Nineteen years later. Are you happy how it turned out, or do you wish something was different, ie Neville married Luna.

ehh, no. i thought the prologue was horrifying. somehow, the ending was weak as compared to the start and the rest of the story, but i guess thats how it should be since now that the war has ended it has to end on a milder note, but still i don't like it.

but i've to admit that the conversation between young Albus and Harry is very much appreciated by me. i thought it was real nice (:

Day 26: If you could be able to work one spell without a wand what would it be.

Lumos.

Day 27: Would you rather own The Invisibility Cloak, The Resurrection Stone or The Elder Wand.

The Invisibility Cloak. i've always wanted to be invisible.

Day 28: Do you listen to Wizard Wrock, what do you think about it.

nope.

Day 29: Did you enjoy A Very Potter Musical.

ehh, i only researched on it. didn't watch it at all

Day 30: What affect has Harry Potter made on your life and how much does it mean to you.

well, it used up an hour of my time to type out this thing so i can only say i love it alot (:
