Harry Potter, Hermione, and Ron


That's right people it is that time of year again....Harry Potter is coming to town! Now in this post I will probably disgrace myself with my nerdiness of how much I love Harry Potter, but it is true, I really cannot wait for it to come to theaters in (count it!) one month!

If you are not familiar with Harry Potter, shame on you! If you believe that Harry Potter is an evil/devil book that children read, you are ridiculous, sorry but it's true, so stop that. Now on to the geeky part of me being an avid fan of this movie franchise. Ya, ya, ya they may be milking it for all its worth by making the last installment 2 parts, but they caught me hook, line, and sinker, I do not even care.

So let the nerdiness begin!

1. I have read all 7 books....multiple times
2. I own all the movies and enjoy watching them
3. I am more then willing to tell you everything about Harry and his friends if you have questions
4. I wish Quidditch were a real sport
5. I cried, when Dumbledore, Dobby, and Snape died. If you do not know who these characters are see #3. Also I may have spoiled something if you have not read the books...sorry.
6. I got chills watching the trailer for the movie. Click HERE, watch it, and love it
7. I put myself on an email notification list (fandango style) to know when tickets first became available
8. I bought said tickets, today, about an hour after receiving the email
10. I want to dress up for the midnight showing (12:10 a.m. I will be there!)
11. I really want to go to Harry Potter land in Florida and drink butterbeer everyday.

So there you have it. I will be one of those people at the midnight showing. Come, if you so wish.

One Month In...

One month into school already! I have not posted anything in a while on here, and that is mostly because, well, I've been busy. Plus I have a whole other blog I have to keep for my technology class, which is great fun, and should definitely be worth more than one measly credit. 

I have mostly been enjoying work, school, friends, and family. There have been many paddle ball tournaments played and so far me and Anders are the dominant force. I mean just look at us, we're legit!



Also this past week for my technology class (previously mentioned) I made a website. Yes a website! Who knew I was so computer savvy? Anywho in reference to this class being only one credit, this assignment alone took me around 9 hours..... yikes! But I am super proud of it! So you should probably check it out. I had to make two classes that I could teach in the future so just go explore and see for yourself:

I am loving my classes and so excited that this is my last year of "real" school. Next year I will be student teaching/internshipping at a middle school or high school. Will I be mistaken for a student there? Most likely. Bring it on. 

In other news my best friend Rachael Andersen is getting married this Friday, love it! Also I am one of her bridesmaids...expect pictures :)
