OKAY. I HAS INTERNET AT HOME, YAY!!!!!!!!!!! :D Kudos to BigPond having it up when they said it would be (minus kudos for it NOT BEING DONE IMMEDIATELY, LOL).

I downloaded the new HBP trailer in HQ and holy crap, you guys. No, seriously, holy crap. HOLY CRAP. LOL. Could this film be, actually epic, despite all the fucking changes they've made??!

DARE I HOPE?!

And it also illustrated one of the reasons I just adore Tom Felton so much as Draco (and as an actor) - HE'S NOT AFRAID TO GET UGLY. LOL.

Now, I know, that sounds strange (especially come from me y/y? LOL), but what I mean is, when he's displaying emotion - he's not afraid to screw up his face, and let spit fly, AND ACTUALLY ACT. LOLOLOLOL. EMOTION IS AN UGLY THING, PEOPLE. I hate it when actors cry and they look all pretty and "I'm going to have a cry now". NO. It has to be "I'MCRYINGAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLAMAFACE" XDDDDDD

SEE THE AWESOME IN HD:


So yes XD And yeah... I kinda cried a little watching this trailer ^^; Because... fuck... IT'S JUST SO EPIC. I WAS OVERWHELMED BY THE EPICNESS OF THE AWESOME.

GOING THROUGH THE TRAILER THOUGHTS (WITH SCREENCAPS):

o1. Okay, first of all: Parental Guidance Suggested for Scary Images, Some Violence, Language and MILD SENSUALITY?!!?!?!?!! AAAHAHAHAHAHAHA I FUCKING LOLED XDDDDDD We must see more of Ron and Lavender than we first thought!! Or maybe it's Ginny, that hussy! "Take my hand" INDEED!! XDDDDDD

( MOAR )

( EVEN MOAR )

o9. "I have to do this!" EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE TOM!FLAIL XDDDDD



1o. "FIGHT BACK, YOU COWARD!!" *Harry pwned* SO PRETTY. XDDDDDDDDDD



WELL. If nothing else, it's gonna be a very pretty film XDDDDD

OKAY. I think I've talked enough about it, LOL XDDDD What do you guys think? :D

OH. AND. The snakes over at hogwarts_elite nommed me for favourite Hufflepuff!! And I was the runner up! So thank you, snakies!! <333 AH WUBS JOO :D

Peace,
Rotae

Okay, so if you follow me on Twitter, then you might have heard me talk about my local cinema back home and the deal I have going with them. I own six extremely large movie posters (you know, the kind you see at the cinema on the weird fabric stuff), I have two HP:GoF ones (Cedric/Cho and Fleur/Ron), a V for Vendetta one, an Elizabethtown one (the movie was okay, the poster was EPIC) and two from Enchanted (the Prince and Princess).

And what you can do is go in and put your name down for them, and you can generally buy them for a VERY reasonable price (sometimes they go to auction for charity).

So. Exactly one day before WB announced they were pushing the release of HP:HBP back nine months (BASTARDS!!!!!!!!!!!!), I went in and said to them,

"Sooooooooooooooooo... you should be getting some HP posters in soon. >.> <.< >.> I MUST HAVE ALL THE ONES WITH DRACO (THE BLOND GUY) IN THEM. SRSLY. I DON'T CARE HOW MUCH THEY ARE. PUT ME DOWN FOR THEM."

LOLOLOLOL. So in their little book it says (from about nine months ago) Rotae: Harry Potter: All Posters of The Blond Guy XDDDDDDD

Why am I saying all this?

I SO HOPE THESE ARE INTERNATIONAL:

Hermione looks fucking WEIRD again, like she did in the last set, but bloody hell, Snape looked epic too. Maybe I should put my name down for his as well, even though he's nowhere near my fav character, LOL. CAN YOU IMAGINE HAVING DRACO AND SNAPE ON YOUR WALL LIKE THAT?!!??! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!

Btw, you like the new icon? LOL.

EDIT: This of course also begs the question: Did I do my Draco HBP portrait too soon?!?!!

Peace,
Rotae

Things I have learnt about Tom Felton this week from his Twitter:

1. He has deep (and wide ranging) thoughts before going to sleep
2. He has a wide range of DVDs, LOL
3. He drives to London for meetings, but sometimes takes the underground to and from the 13 Hours set nvm he's talking about food again XDDDDD
4. He also drives home covered in fake blood, LOL!
5. He reads his @ replies
6. He has an iPhone
7. He drinks tea instead of coffee :3
8. He is OBSESSED with food (especially pancakes) XDDDD
9. He is SO CUTE about his g/f Jade, homg. Srsly.

Sigh. No, seriously, sigh. I would love to have this guy as my friend. He's so sweet <3 I hope he keeps Twittering over the DH shoot as well :D That'd be awesome :D OOOOOOH, and about the HBP promoting! :D

ANYWAY... I had a bad day yesterday :( It turns out they're not going to let me do Maths as an overload in my BTeach :(((((((( No wonder they're short of Maths teachers if they're not letting people who want to do it, do it. SIGH.

I was so stressed about everything that I ended up crying in the course co-ordinators office when she told me ^^; and then again on the phone to my Mum and Dad (Dad said he wished he was here to give me a cuddle :3 *wubs the Dad*). I was basically just in a state of total exhaustion, I think.

Then I had to go into Service Tasmania because they'd given me the wrong form to give to the police the day before and I'd therefore wasted $45, only to be told I needed my passport, so then I had to come home, get the passport and go back AND THEN pay another $15. UGH.

Then I came home and had to sign lots of stuff for my new apartment and go around looking for a witness, LOL. AND put in my form to defer my Uni payments (after they FINALLY got my name right on my enrolment).

BUT. I think I've got everything in on time, so hopefully this will be the last of my Uni dramaz. And Tom made me smile all sighingly over his sweetness, so that was nice :D

ANYWAYYYYYYYYYY. I HAS ARTS BEFORE AH GO TO BEDZ :D CLICKEH FOR BIGGER PICKEH!!


Shipping 28 - 1. Helga/Arnold

OKAY. SO. You know a while ago, I was talking about how I was shortlisted for the ABC2 Fanging It video competition?

I just got a phone call from one of the producers... and...

UGGGGGGGGHHHHHH. LOOK AT HIM. HE'S BEING EFFING PROMOTED AS A MAIN CHARACTER a;ldfl;;lsakd;la;sldkjf;lksd I HATE YOU WB.


EEEEEEEEEEEEEE :D I'm hoping that jackety thing that Narcissa is wearing is an actual awesome coat that goes down over a dress. Because if she's seriously wearing what looks like a jacket for a job interview, I shall not be a happy chappy. But yay! She looks good! :D Except... 0.o... does she have BROWN hair on top of her head? Or is it just weird lighting? 0.o

( Click for bigger picture of Draco :3 )

You know the irony of all this? Yesterday when I went and saw The Clone Wars at the cinema, I stayed afterwards and said, "Sooooooo, you're gonna be getting Harry Potter posters soon y/y?" and the woman (who has known me since they opened about five years ago) was like, "You want to put your name on any that we get with the blond guy in it, right?" LOLOLOL. Ugh. Fail.

WB, WHY SO STUPID?!

LOL. There was a news update just on the tv and the push back of the HP movie was the second headline. LOLOL. ILU Australian news XD

Peace,

Oh, and that top picture basically confirms my suspicion that this picture is Harry listening to Draco and Snape arguing.

THANK YOU, STEVE KLOVES, I KNOW YOU KNOW WHAT DRACO IS ALL ABOUT :D Now, if only you could have been in charge of Draco in OotP *grumble grumble*

This is seriously more than I could have ever asked for with Draco in HBP ZOMGGGGGGGG

I'M. SO. HAPPY.

Hehehehehehehehe :D

LOL. Draco totally only has two outfits ever. It's so awesome XDDDDD

( Click for bigger black and white picture )

But WTH is up with the back of Tom's head? 0.o (now there's something I thought I'd never say LMFAO!!!) WHUT?!


Is that a design or something?! WHAT THE HELL?! LMFAO XDDD

OH, I DON'T EVEN CARE, I LOVE IT :D

I don't think that's Slughorn btw, it looks nothing like Jim ^^:

SOMEONE IS READING MAH BLOG, WB. LOL. JKR obviously told WB to release this, as SHE'S the one KNOWN to read it XDDDDD No, seriously, I mean, she couldn't get them to release it on my birthday, because THAT would look suspicious, as she's already given Draco the same birthday as me, AND it goes well with the 800 word thing that's released mysteriously the same amount of time AFTER my birthday... >.> LMFAO. Conspiracy theories ftw XD

Peace,
Rotae

Okay... so... I've been thinking about this for a while... and... would anyone be interested if I opened up commissions? At the moment, it'd just be my cartoony stuff (which would include Simpson style stuff if anyone wanted it)...

So... would anyone be interested?

Also, my friend's new boyfriend is the SPITTING IMAGE of James and Oliver Phelps. It's so freaky. Srsly. And now that I've told my friend, she can't stop looking at him and seeing the twins. We both are kinna freaked out. LOL. He doesn't think it's amusing at all, but it SO TOTALLY IS.

And, take note of my awesome new icon. I came up with this quote for a Teddy/Victoire fan fiction ^^; Victoire asks Teddy a fairly... ahem... inappropriate question, to which he replies,

"What sort of question is that to ask a man over tea and chocolate hobnob?"

I love Teddy so much. :D He's so droll. :333

OMG DROLL IS SUCH AN AWESOME WORD I mean, English is such a shit language, but occasionally it throws you an awesome word like droll. Or crockery. Or podge. >.> Okay. Enough now. LOL.

And lastly, check out cambryn's New Snape Fragrance, for which I quoted Absolutely Fabulous for the tag line. XDDDDD

"Always - The Scent that Lingers Longer than She Does" BWAHAHAHAHA LOL.

Peace,
Rotae

Just a quick update before I go to bed... I shall reply to all of your lovely comments tomorrow when I am not dead on my feet, LOL.

THOUGHTS: BELLATRIX, DRACO and SNAPE...

'... That Bell girl must've had an enemy no one knows about - don't look at me like that! I know what you're doing, I'm not stupid, but it won't work - I can stop you!'
There was a pause and then Snape said quietly. 'Ah... Aunt Bellatrix has been teaching you Occlumency, I see. What thoughts are you trying to conceal from your master, Draco?"
'I'm not trying to conceal anything from him, I just don't want you butting in!'

I have always found this exchange to be... interesting.

"I'm not stupid, but it won't work" <-- uhm... weird phrasing there, Draco. "I'm not stupid - BUT it won't work?" Like, triple negative, LOL. You have to be intelligent for you mind to be Legilimensed? Uhm... no. I dunno... maybe Draco was extremely flustered, or JK slipped (it has been known to happen, LOL). Or maybe it's my addled brain... whatever, LOL. Any thoughts on that?

How does Snape know it's Bellatrix? Either Bella (and no one else Draco has had contact with), is a very good Occlumens (and is known for it)... or Snape actually got something through Draco's defences... OR, it's the obvious, and Snape knew that Bellatrix was going to help Draco and just assumed. LOL. Though he does seem quite adamant about it for someone who just assumed...

"What thoughts are you trying to conceal from your master, Draco?" - YOUR master? OUR master, surely Severus... (see: Snape is OMG TOTALLY "GOOD", LOL) And why does Snape immediately jump on the Voldemort bandwagon? Surely the first thing you would think of would be in case Dumbledore tried to read his mind, or the Ministry... Draco fobs it off as keeping his thoughts from SNAPE (which is understandable, seeing as it is BELLATRIX helping him, LOL)... but perhaps Snape did see into Draco's mind (that would explain how he knew it was Bellatrix teaching him) and saw that he WAS trying to keep something from Voldemort... in which case... what would that be? That he was failing? Or something else (here's hoping, LOL).

And finally... why would Bella want to know Occlumency? I suppose it'd be handy if she were captured by The Order (because she knows Death Eater secrets)... but it's not as if she's not willing to die for the cause... surely she'd just kill herself for Voldiepants. And she was extremely proud to stand up and show off her alligence to him during the First War... it's not as though she tried to keep anything from the Ministry...

Well... who knows... maybe Bellatrix is actually Regulus. LMFAO. XDDDD

Like I said... it's an interesting conversation.

THOUGHTS?

Rotae

There is a competition on MuggleNet, where you have to write the opening chapter of Book 7.
Seems simple enough... but it has to be under 1000 words.

Here's my entry. It might lead to a long fan fiction of Book 7, depending on how much feedback I receive.

07/07/07 = Book 7 - wouldn't that be COOL?! It's a Saturday and everything.

From Aesop's Fables.

The Birds, the Beasts and the Bat

The birds and the beasts were at war. Their battles were fierce and frequent. Sometimes the birds won, swooping down out of the sun and attacking the animals. Sometimes the beasts won, creeping up on the birds as they searched for good on the ground, and leaping on them.
But there was one creature who was always on the winning side. He never lost, because he kept on changing sides. He would fight for the birds until they looked like losing, and then change sides. For a time he would fight for the animals, and then if the birds gained the upper hand, he would change back and join them.
This creature was the bat. He thought he was a very clever fellow, always being on the winning side.
In the end the war ended. The birds and the beasts agreed to live in peace for ever.
"Now I shall get my reward," the bat told himself. "Everyone will think I'm a fine fellow. After all, I was never on the losing side. I helped both sides. In fact, the birds and the beasts may make me their king!"
It did not work out like that at all. Neither the birds nor the beasts would have anything to do with him!
"You are a traitor!" they told the amazed bat. "You are loyal to no one. You only serve yourself. You let down both sides in the war. We want nothing more to do with you."
From that do to this the bat was an outcast, ignored by both the birds and the beasts.

Moral: People are expected to be loyal and to stick by their friends.

I was amazed at how much this was like Snape in Harry Potter. Even the bat-imagery. This is why I don't think that Snape only working for himself will work in the series. This is also the reason I believe that Snape is true to Dumbledore. If Snape were evil, then all of J.K's comments about not judging a book by its cover (pardon the pun) will have been in vain, and if Snape doesn't actually CHOOSE a side (because its our choices that matter), he won't be considered 'good'.

Anyway... ya.

Peace,
Rotae
