Harry Potter..

Jesus Christ! I haven't updated in a while, sorry. Now lets see what have I been up to? I am currently waiting for a Myspace Black Curtain countdown to end so that I can win tickets, like I did for Wolverine. However, this time its for Harry Potter. Yes, I know the stakes are high and the possibility of me winning again is like |-| well not even that much. But I hope I win!
What else is new? I may be going to Green Day in December, and I still want to go and see WICKED (no doubt about that!)!! I started and finished watching an anime called Vampire Knight, beware it is HIGHLY addictive! So now I have ordered the manga version and I am waiting for volumes 3 and 4 to come in. I have also started reading the House of Night series. Its alright... I guess, the story line is okay, though the writing is extremely poor. But for some twisted reason I like it. *shrugs shoulders*
Well I should be getting back to finishing my Design and Tech assignment that was due, oh I don't know three days ago oh and then there is that Ancient one as well. CRAP! I will post a review for Harry Potter (regardless if I win the tickets or not!) and I guess that's it.

Defying Gravity...

Ok think back to my post, I loathe it all! Remember, it was about the award winning musical Wicked and how it only opened in Melbourne and neglected Sydney fans, oh and how its being turned into a movie? Well guess what, IT'S FINALLY COMING TO SYDNEY!!!!!
Can you tell Im excited? It opens in September and tickets go on sale tomorrow, and Im so excited. I am going to see it at least 3 times, I dont know where Im getting the money from... But Im seeing it three times. Oh and on Friday (12th June) I went on a school trip to a craft fair in Sydney and as we were walking past Capitol Theatre, my friend Sarah and I saw a MASSIVE Wicked sign and of course I screamed. We took a TONE of photos of our Wicked Day in Sydney. So anyway Im super excited and I cant wait until September!!

You will always have the stars...

"The first time I realized that it wasn't just fun and magic- the first time I knew there was anything bad about being a -...anything bad about it was the first time I realized that I would never die, but all my Arrowwood friends would...It scared me, because I realized that all of the people I loved in the world, there would be so few I would ever get to keep...So I tried to think what I could keep. If there was anything that would stay with me always."
"The stars," Lucas said. "You knew you would always have the stars."
I nodded, and I knew he understood everything. He took me in his arms and held me so tightly that I could believe Lucas would be with me forever, too.

Warning: Spoilers
Stargazer is the amazing follow up to the best seller Evernight and just like Evernight, once I started reading I just couldn't put it down! Its a new school year and most of the students are returning, as well as more human students. While Bianca Oliver is happy to see her friends from last year, there is once person missing. Her boyfriend and Black Cross member, Lucas Ross.
The passing of notes between Vic, Bianca and Lucas continues but when a chance to see Lucas in person arises Bianca doesn't hesitate. A surprising alliance between Lucas and Balthazar ends up becoming the downfall of Lucas and Bianca's secretive relationship. But their love proves a strong force that either can not deny. A "prank" call to the Black Cross, leaves Bianca having to choose between her family and Lucas which will she choose?
I found Stargazer to be an amazing sequel to Evernight. I finished it within a day, while working on an assignment! It leaves you wanting more and the first chapter of Hourglass, just isn't enough to keep you entertained until its release in December. 7/10.

Vampire Diaries: Revisited

Do you remember my second post when I talked about a series I had discovered that shared so many similarities with twilight?
Vampire Diaries, ring a bell? The CW Network has just announced that they will be showing the Vampire Diaries TV show, and yes I am excited. Though with viewing the teasers and what not, there are somethings and people missing. First of all Paul Wesley as Stefan and Ian Somerhalder as Damon are just the most perfectest (not a word, but is now), people for the roles. Elena isn't as popular and outgoing and blonde as she is in the books and I'm pretty sure that Margret (Elena's little sister) has been replaced by an older brother named Jeremy. But of course the one little fact that has Vampire Diaries fans in a up roar is the 'disappearance' of the character, Meredith. And as assumed, (but I know I did it to,) it is already being compared to Twilight. Which leads me to my, as promised (and long overdue) review of the not so final three books, yes that's right, I just found out that there are another three books due for release;

• Vampire Diaries: The Return: Nightfall,
  
• Vampire Diaries: The Return: Shadow Souls and
• Vampire Diaries: The Return: Midnight.

Which after I have read them I will post yet another review.
Please be warned there are spoilers.
Book 2: The Struggle. It didn't have as many similarities as the Awakening did, when compared to Twilight/ New Moon the only thing was that like Bella, Elena had to chose between two boys which she equally loved. Granted, most people would debate that Elena didn't love Damon as much as she loved Stefan, and yes that may be true but she did love Damon in her own way. But after saying that, I don't think that Elena would ever chose Damon over Stefan. Overall a great book and a fantastic follow up to the Awaking that left me thirsty for more...
Book 3: The Fury. The Eclipse of the Vampire Diaries Saga. Just like in Eclipse, the Fury leads up to an epic battle where brothers, Stefan and Damon (who still hate each other) must unite to save the one they both love from the one they both once loved. Confusing much? Elena is still torn between the two brothers, just like Katherine was (wink, wink). Bonnie finally taps into her psychic intuition and with the help of Meredith, Elena, Matt, Stefan and even Damon discover a secret that has been hidden in Fell's Church since the day Horina Fell died. But out of the six that discover this secret only five survive.
Book 4: The (Dark) Reunion. Not quite the Breaking Dawn of Vampire Diaries, which I have to admit thank god it wasn't. We start off in Florence, Italy and are pleased to find that Damon and Stefan are still together, just as they promised Elena in her final moments. (Well I did say there would be spoilers!) But after Bonnie's haunting dreams of Elena, she (using her mystic Druid knowledge) summons Stefan and Damon back to Fell's Church for one last battle. With Katherine a pile of dust the brothers and Elena ever loyal friend don't know who's causing all this trouble. It isn't until Bonnie channels Elena's spirit that everyone finds out that Klaus, (who changed the dying Miss Katherine into a vampire) is the one terrifying the town of Fell's Church. Of course we all knew some thing was seriously wrong with that Tyler kid and we finally find out what exactly is wrong with that disturbed child. The, what was thourght to be the final book end with yet another epic battle where, "No more blood will be shed."
Now go read this fantastic seris and come back and comment with your thourghts....
