First thing first, I’m back! Lol. Yes I have disappeared for a little too long. But trust me, I’m still around – because there’s always more things to covet! :) And here’s the first one…

Now, I am obsessed with Harry Potter. For those who know me, I was one of those HP geek that queued up in front of the bookstore early morning on the first day of its release. I was also one of those people who get excited when the new movie trailer comes out – which is why, I got so excited when I saw the trailer for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows…

As if that’s not enough to excite me, there’s more. The Wizarding World of Harry Potter has opened its gates for obsessed fan boys and girls like myself to visit. Yes, Universal Studio in Orlando has created this magical world for us to venture, from Hogwarts to Hogsmeade, from Dumbledore’s office to the Three Broomsticks. Oh, boy! I would make it one of my goals in life to visit this theme park. Just check out some of the early drawings!

Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Universal Studio Orlando Theme Park

Welcome to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter...

Ride your way to Universal Studio for the adventure you won't forget!

See it for yourself - and relive the book/movie memories of Harry Potter

Pick your wand - or the wand will pick you, as it did for Harry...

Walk along Hogwarts and be amazed!!

Harry and friends love going to Hogsmeade... Would you love it too?

Buy some practical jokes for your friends as a gift - they'll love it!

Ahhh, I want to visit the Wizarding World of Harry Potter now!

One of the places I’d like to visit is the States. And now I know that when I do go there, Orlando Florida will be one of my must-visit spots so that I can really experience the true wonders of the Wizarding World of Harry Potter!!! *shrieks in excitement*

There has been this one thing that has been in my wishlist for a long time and yet I have gathered enough reasoning for me to buy it. Well, by saying one thing, I meant one of the things – as I have an increasingly growing wishlist that is impossible to be fulfilled in one go…

Harry Potter complete boxed set

Harry Potter boxed set. The complete book 1 – 7 of the Harry Potter series, in a nice boxed set, for collection & reading purposes. I’ve always wanted it, ever since book 7 was released. But somehow, it was either I couldn’t choose which version to have or I just can’t justify buying it – since technically, I already have the books separately.

To my defense, I lost book 6. And book 1 is technically not mine (and is a different version to the rest). Some books are paperback and some are hardcover. And they’re all a bit worn out. So yes, plenty of excuses. Because I want my Harry Potter complete boxed set! Lol. It’s only AU$90!

New Moon beats full moon craze – only 3 weeks to go

Halloween’s usually associated with all the freaky things. Lately though, the freaky things we used to know – say, vampires & werewolves – ain’t so freaky anymore! Well, they still are. But in a more seductive and sensual way… Thanks to the good looking boys and a bunch of vampire novels being made into films & TV series.

But the biggest craze would be Twilight. Since the movie came out last year, millions of teenage girls around the world suddenly fell in love with vampires. But if you think vampires are the only in thing right now, think again. This summer, when the New Moon is out, there’d be many teenage girls wanting to be werewolves instead. Why? Because the second movie based on the book from the Twilight saga written by author Stephenie Meyer will be out soon.

New Moon, out November 19...

Are you on the Cullens' side?

Or are you on Jacob's side?

Or have you chosen a new ally?

When the trailer for New Moon was shown during MTV Music Awards, thousands on Twitter posted their excitement. I myself have read all 4 books from the Twilight series and decided that I only like the first one. But upon watching the trailer, I couldn’t help nudging myself to watch this movie when it comes out November 19 in Australia. Why? Well, I’ve read the book – and I am a little curious on how it will play out on the big screen. See it for yourself.

The excitement, the build up, the exclusive trailers & sneak peeks, and the hype – they all kinda make me want to watch it too. But I know I’ll hate it. ‘Cos I’m Team Edward. If that means anything to you, then you must’ve chosen a side too.
