Living in Australia: The Gleek Edition + Glee 3D Live

Things I love about living in Australia
  • We get a lot of movies a day or two before the US.

Things  I don't like about living in Australia
  • No one good ever comes here - especially the Glee cast on their concert tours.
  •  Everyone famous is in the US
~~~~~~~~~~
So on Monday morning I woke up and found that I had won that contest on a cinema's facebook page to go and see Glee at my State's premiere. Except it was that night.

But I went with my friend. There was a red carpet, cheerleaders performing, and even a show choir singing Don't Stop Believing.

They gave out slushees, badges, and the awesome guy checking VIP passes gave us posters. He was amazing.

Then the movie started. It was amazing.I'm saying everything's amazing, aren't I? But it was amazing.

Then the Warblers came on. -le scream-. The mini warbler is so much cuter on the big screen! My friend and I ran up the front and did the Teenage Dream two step. T'was amazing fun. And we won a t-shirt, for being one of the first to dance or something.

And then when Chris Colfer performed 'I Wanna Hold Your Hand', I cried. He is amazing. The entire cast is amazing.

For my subject electives for next year, I put Drama. I don't even know why. I guess just because it loked fun and all my friends were doing it. And I'm VERYY shy.

But now, just seeing that movie has inspired me. I am really looing forward to next year.

Then I went and saw it again last night, which was a session that had been booked for 2 months. It wasn't as fun, because there wasn't dancing or singing. But it was still amazing.

I recommend it to each and every one of you. Even if you don't like Glee. Well fine, maybe not then, but the music is pretty amazing. So you would at least like that part.

But you know what the best part of the movie was? The random lady dressed in a Santa suit in the audience. Yep.

So yeah. I saw it twice before it even came out in the US.

So in My Last Post I Kinda Forgot To Mention I Might Come Back Oneday

It's funny how when you stop blogging, thats when all the writing inspiration comes.

So the Miley Cyrus concert. It was actually pretty amazing. Miley is amazing live. But I was seriously amazed at how many two year old were there. We were closer to the back than the front though, but the view was amazing. Moving on though.

I am a massive Potterhead. And I went to my first midnight screening. You know what makes me extremly happy? Though the world premiere in London was on the 9th, the official release date for the US and England is on the 15th, but us Aussies, being incredibly cool, got it on the 13th. I know right!

Though I don't think the movies will ever be as amazing as the books, the final movie was amazing. They cut quite a bit out though including *SPOILER SPOILER SPOILER* Fred's death. I guess I'm kind of glad though, because all the other deaths had me absolutly bawling my eyes out. Even when the WB logo came on at the begininning, I sobbed.

I just really love my aunty. She made me a robe to dress up with and I really love it. It's Ravenclaw, so it's automatically awesome.

You know what another amazing movie is though? Cars 2. I love love love the original, but I thought that the second would be a bit of a let down. It's basically a spy movie, and we all know I love spies. Mater and Lighning's friendship is amazing.

They showed the Glee Live 3D trailer, so that's never bad. The Warblers had Red Vines, so that's not bad at all either.

This has been a boring post, but I just really felt like posting something XD

The Justin Bieber Movie is Actually Pretty Good.

Before I start this, I just want to let you all know that no, I'm not a Belieber. But I don't hate him either.

Anyway, me and 3 friends were going to go see it today in 3D, but it was cancelled at the last minute. I still really wanted to go, so I asked my other friend, who couldn't come, so I ended up going with my sister and her friend, who was sleeping over.

I saw about a hundred people at the cinemas who I know. I think most of them were seeing Justin Bieber as well.

You know the ads before the movie? Those is one of my favourite parts of the movie! I now have a list of movies I really want to see.

But onto the actual movie. There was a lot of purple. But apart from that it was pretty good.

It basically started with clips and photos from when he was a baby/young child then about him getting picked up for a record deal, all while counting down to his Madison Square Garden concert. I liked the backstage bits the best, but they could have had a few more.

Some of the girls they showed though... seriously. The bits where JB's manager and mum (?) were giving away tickets were so funny. So was every other scene with screaming fangirls.

I don't get why everyone hates him though. He's just a 17 year old kid who is doing what he loves and following his dreams. What did he ever do to you? And how would you feel if someone randomly started hating you, because it was the cool thing to do, or because he sounds too much like a girl?

Any you know what's awkward? When you're wearing a cheap pair of jeans you bought in Sydney, and you go to the toilet before you leave and the button that does them up breaks, then when you go to the toilet after the movie, your belt won't come undone so you tug it but it ends up breaking and you walk around with your pants falling down, the fly sort of coming undone and no belt.

This has been a mixed up, one topic-ed post.

My New Favourite Movie

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 Reveiw: Will Contain Spoilers

Okay, so we arrive at the cinema and go up the elevators to get our tickets and I hear some girls saying  that they've just re-watched AVPM. I thuoght only cyber dorks who blog watch AVPM!

I really loved this movie. Really liked. It made me cry and it made me laugh.

Anyway, I liked how they added humerous bits in quite frequently, which made me laugh, and make the movie not so dark. And the fact that it's Harry Potter definatly changed my opinion a bit. I liked how it wasnt too rushed, and it stayed pretty true to the book.

I'm also sorta glad that it wasn't in 3D, because near the beginning when Nagini jumped out at you, it was scary enough.

I really liked how they added thing in aswell, like at the beginning, they showed Hermione wiping her parents memories.But thy also left out some of my favourite bits. Small buts, but still my favourite. Like instead of Harry using Polyjuice Potion at the wedding, he went as himself.

It was really sad when Dobby died, but I think it was really well done. My favourite scenes were the 7 Potters scene and the bit where Bellatrix was torturing Hermione. I liked the 7 Potters scene because it was quite funny, and well, beacause I just did. I liked the torture scene because its torture, and I think Emma Watson's acting was really good.

My favourite character was Hermione. I would kill to have a wardrobe like Hermione's.

And you should never end a movie with that much suspense. Even if it is only part 1.


Overall, I think I'd give it 4.5 out of 5 :)


P.S. I never did end up finishing the book...

Preparing

Right now, I'm watching A Very Potter Musical, trying to get myself even more excited for Deathly Hallows. Tickets have been booked. YAY! It probably didn't help that Darren Criss was on Glee last night, with him being in AVPM.(Ahh. Last nights episode was the best.)

"I gotta get back to Hogwarts,
I gotta get back to school.
Gotta get myself to Hogwarts,
Where everybody knows I'm cool."

Then tomorrow I think I'll watch all the movies in order.

I'm also re-reading the 7th book for about the millionth time.I have a week to finish it, and I'm only up the the 7 Potters part.


What are you doing to prepare for the new movie? Are you as excited as I am?




6 DAYS TO GO!

5 Little Randomz

1) Is it sad I can't remember every little detail from Harry Potter anymore? I think yes. I used to be obbsessed, and I stil am, I just havn't read the book for ages.

2) I started reading Twilight. It's pretty good so far, but I flipped ahead, and I still have 100 pages to go until she finds out he's a vampire. Talk about slow.

3) You can make me very excited by just showing me the Harry Potter trailer, or the TWTWB trailer. Is anyone else excited about Harry Potter 7, or is it just me? I'm even struggling to sleep, knowing that Tommorrow When the War Began is out and I havn't seen it yet. Have you seen it? Was the acting bearable?

4) I had already started looking at showbags for the Royal Show, even when it was a month away. I think I have decided what ones I want. Only we're saving for Sydney, so we might not even go. At least I'm sure to get in and go because the Guides do volunteer work and get free entry. SCORE!


5) I'm very good at neglecting blogs, as you have probably noticed from my lack of posts showing up on your dashboards.



P.S. I'm about to get readiy to post all of my designs on this blog.

Why Spain Will Win the World Cup... and Other Assorted Paragrpahs

...because Paul the Octopus said they would, and Paul's always right because hes an octopus. So I'm going for Spain so I can rub it in every ones face *if I want* (not that I would) when Spain wins.

Now onto some other nonsense I want to clear up...

I really couldn't care less for AFL, except I *do* go two teams. (It's always been true). Lets call the teams from my state team #1 and team #2. I go for #1 because my sister goes for #2. I support two teams. #2 and whatever team #1 is playing. I just had to add that random snippet from my mind.

Also, have any good songs or movies? I need at least 2 more hours of songs or movies on my iPod for this "holiday" next week that's a 14 hour drive. (Our friend, who lives about 3 1/2 hours south of us would get there before us if we both left at the same time). I don't like long drives.You've probably realised that I don't really want to go. I don't because I miss out on 1 and a half weeks of school. I ALWAYS miss the first session of this dancing course everyone does. Normally I hate it, but the year 7's always get the best song. This year, that means me. Also I have photos to check out from our class party that have yet to be downloaded. Maybe I can get my friend to email them to me.

That reminds me. Has anyone downloaded iOS 4 yet? (for all the iPod touches and iPhones out there) It's awesome. Much better than the last operating system. You can put your apps in folders. Get this... I had 8 pages of apps, and I narrowed it down to 3. It's amazing!

Now only 2 more paragraphs I wanna write.

Today, we went to this electronics store to "stock take" the electronics we would need for our trip. a.k.a. replacing headphones that always go missing. You know how there's always displays of the stuff? Well my sister and I found two iPads that were demos. Now I'm addicted. I <3 the keyboard so much. But it's sort of clunky.  Next to the iPads, there was a Mac (not sure what type) and the screen was like, as big as my TV. There were some TVs across the aisle and the Computer screen was even bigger than them. ANd it had good sound because iTunes was open and I clicked on the Owl City folder and I blasted it throughout the store. *wopps :P* Then we found the massage chairs on demo and the Wii that was also a demo.

Last weekend there was nothing on, so I switched it onto Oprah, where the Twilight stars were being interveiwed. I went along with it and watched it, even though I hate Twilight as much as it's possible. Then my sister did the unthinkable. She put the Bali copy of Twilight we had on. I protested but she wouldn't budge. Now I'm scared I'm turning into a Twi-Hard, because I loved it and now I want to rent New Moon. Please NO NO NO. I get Google Alerts for Harry Potter and it came up with an article titled something like Hermione vs Bella. It's very interesting.


If you have read everything I have said, I applaud you. Well done.Thankyou. Sorry for the long post.

3D Glasses

I LOVE 3D glasses (well the ones you get in my state at least). They are the shapes of Ray Bands Sunglasses. At school, we knock the lenses out and wear them like that. LOL. Last night at the movies, I grabbed a whole handful out of the recylcling bin for glasses. Yes, I know it's discusting. But glasses are a dollar each. And I can wash them :D


Anyway, sorry for the short post. And should I do the Teen Girl's Day Book?
