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!

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*

Just in case you’re still planning for Valentine’s Day with your loved one, what about watching the aptly-named Valentine’s Day movie? Here are reasons why you should: 1/ the name of the movie is, well, Valentine’s Day. 2/ it comes out just in time for the V-Day. 3/ it is meant to be a romantic comedy, perfect for all couples who love a good movie. 4/ it is star-studded, and when I say star-studded, I mean like a whole lot of Hollywood big names decided to act in it. Here’s the trailer:

From hottie Jessica Biel to sweet Jessica Alba, from elegant Julia Roberts to adorable Emma Roberts, from teen sensation Taylor Lautner to another teen sensation Taylor Swift. And that’s not all… For the lads, apart from the list above, Valentine’s Day also offers eye candy such as Anne Hathaway and Jennifer Garner. For the ladies, Valentine’s Day stars Patrick Dempsey, Bradley Cooper, Topher Grace, Joe Jonas, Ashton Kutcher, and Eric Dane. Mmm…

The Time Traveler’s Wife, sci-fi meets romance

To continue with the topic of love, I present to you a romantic movie that I’d really love to watch. While I was in London 2 months ago, I saw a trailer (and many billboards) of The Time Traveler’s Wife – a new movie starring Eric Bana and Rachel McAdams, based on the best selling novel by Audrey Niffenegger.

The Time Traveler's Wife - In Cinemas Nov 5 Australia-wide

Eric Bana & Rachel McAdams in this sci-fi romantic drama!

Magical moments, surreal circumstances...

The genre is rather interesting as it mixes science fiction with romantic drama. Although, if you’re looking for some aliens or mad scientist, this is not the right movie for you. The only sci-fi bits you’ll find in this movie is the very fact that the main character (played by Eric Bana) keeps travelling through time without being able to control himself. The Time Traveler’s Wife is a love story of how the man and his wife coped with their bizarre circumstances. Here’s the official trailer that will entice you to watch this movie…

Also, as you may know, I love premieres and red carpets. So, let’s take a look at some of the images from the New York premiere of The Time Traveler’s Wife last August. Brad Pitt – who is the executive producer for this movie – also made an appearance during the NY premiere, alongside with the rest of the cast members.

There's a lot of romance for them in the movie!

The Time Traveler’s Wife may be old news to the rest of the world. But for us down under, it’s coming out on the 5th of November Australia-wide. So if you love sappy ol’ romance or if you totally adore Rachel McAdams in The Notebook, I believe this is the right movie for you. I will attempt to get the boyfriend to watch this one with me! :)
