We Love Potter!

I will willingly admit that I am a Potter fan. Thus, going to the midnight showing and getting back at 3:00 AM is totally worth it!

Janessa, "Jeanetta," Simon, and I

I went to pick up Shanna at 10:00 PM, but was surprised to find "Jeanetta" flying out the front door instead. ;) She bounced into my car and proceeded to tell me of her adventures and preferences of the British life and how excited she was to see the Harry Potter movie here in America. She was so glad to be an "exchange student" here at this time - it was a bit of home. :)


We pulled into the theater parking lot and put on our magical Potter capes. Jeanetta even brought a wand...it's remarkable - the resemblance between her and Harry! We found some friends to join in line and I introduced them to "Jeanetta." We laughed and had a good time talking and watching the best pieces of "My Fair Lady" on Jeanetta's ipod. Luckily, it was a warm night - so waiting outside was quite an enjoyable experience.

Finally the moment arrived and the theater doors flew open! Jeanetta and I rushed inside to snag great seats. There were some fabulous people sitting behind us who were Harry Potter finatics more so than we were. They gave the movie an extra hilarious twist with each witty whispered remark - Jeanetta and I were dying!

With a flick of her wand, Jeanetta changed her hair color.
It's frightening how much she looks like Shanna when she does that! ;)

We loved "The Half Blood Prince," and declared it our favorite Potter film yet!

You're lucky you got to go, I wanted to, but of course I couldn't. I saw it the other day, and I thought it was ok, not great, but not bad either.
