Did you know?

I am the type of person who loves learning strange facts about things (all polar bears are left handed). So I thought that I would share a cool photo that taught us all. This photo is interesting to me because it explains something in the background. Most of the time we don't pay attention to the little details but it is nice to find out something like this. It can give us insight, or maybe it's just a little brain food for us to forget tomorrow. Who knows? I sure as hell don't, but maybe you're into philosophy, so there, thunk about that! Oh yeah this about Harry Potter, well......What a wizard! Okay I should stop typing, blog over.

Rupert Update.....NEW MOVIE!!!

Rupert Grint is a young ginger actor who plays Ron Weasley in the Harry Potter series. I just thought I would post a little something about how he is doing. I was looking for something to blog about when I stubled upon new info about Rupert. There is a poster for his new movie circling about the web. This new poster for Rupert Grint’s latest project, Into the White, is now online. It shows Rupert in his pilot goggles and bomber jacket. I’ve also included a trailer for you below. The film, which takes place during World War II and Rupert portrays Gunner Robert Smith, is expected to be in theatres April 12th in the US.

Luna Lovegood - Evanna Lynch - Actress over comes Anorexia

Evanna Lynch is the young Irish actress who plays Luna Lovegood in the Harry Potter series. Lynch studied speculative fiction and drama at the Centre for Talented Youth of Ireland, a summer program for gifted children. She was a HUGE Harry fan, an wrote letters to J.K. Rowling. At age eleven she begged Rowling for help in one of her letters.
“I told how I looked up to her,” Lynch tells The Sun
“She wrote back and was like a counsellor. She told me anorexia is destructive, not creative, and the brave thing was not to succumb to it.” This helped her over come her anorexia and go on to play Luna Lovegood. Rowling really is an ispiration.

Tattoos

     For some people their tattoos represent a time in their life, honor a person, or show something that is near and dear to their heart. Not surprisingly people get Harry Potter tattoos. Who doesn't want a Hippogriff on their chest? I thought I might expose you to some of these interesting ink designs.  

There are quite a few that are the Deathly Hallows. That is the symbol from the last book, a triangle with a line and a circle inside. The line represents the elder wand, triangle is the invisibility cloak, and the the circle is the resurrection stone.




    I will continue with more tattoos next time! BYE BYE!!!

What I think they should change about Quiditch.

    Last time I posted about the rules of Quidditch, so now I will tell you what I would like to change about it. As I mentioned before the game of Quidditch lasts until the golden snitch, thats something I would like that to change. It is lame that the game could last anywhere from five minutes to three days, it should be like other sports and have a time limit. A score to reach would be nice too because than the golden snitch would help but you could still win without it. Other than that I think Quidditch is pretty cool! Bludgers are kind of dangerous, but hey, who doesn't like a little excitement? Is there anything you would change?

Quidditch Rules




      Quidditch is a game played up in the air on broomsticks, Harry Potter plays seeker. Basically there a three hoops on each teams side, one higher hoop and two lower ones. These are called goal posts, you use the quaffle to score. The quaffle is one of four balls and the chasers thrust them through the goal posts. There are three of these 'chasers' on each team, and the are the main sorce of points. The people who protect the goals are called keepers, one player at a time per team, they are like soccer goalies. Those two brown balls you see to the right are the bludgers, and they fly around trying to knock players off their brooms! There are two beaters who have the job of hitting the bludgers away from their team and hopefully towards the opposing team. The last ball is the golden snitch. This is the most important ball in the game, because thats how it ends. Once the seeker cathches this small golden winged ball their team is awarded 150 points and the game is done.

Harry Potter Pick Up Lines



      There are lots of ways to impress people of the opposite sex, next time you're out clubbin' use Harry as your wingman. There are lines referring to the guards at Azkaban "If you were a Dementor, I'd become a criminal just to get your kiss." Some lines refer to characters like "My name may not be Luna, but I sure know how to Lovegood!", "Hagrid's not the only giant on campus, if you know what I mean.", or "I know we're not in Professor Flitwick's class, but you still are charming." There are even some that use potions as a reference "I must have had some Felix Felicis, because I think I'm about to get lucky."

       I don't think any of these would work, but it's always worth a try! I challenge you to go out and try one. The results may just surprise you!
