I am Botasky. Now who wants to be Packy?

For all the inquisitive and curious minds out there, I ask you: What do you think of bunnies (yes, those soft and adorable and fluffayyyyyyy creatures that often times get abused my magicians)? Most of your perceptions would be cute, pettable (if there is such a word, but my spelling and grammar check says none, anyway I'll still go with it), kind, etc etc etc and flufayyyyyyy. Before your imaginations run wild, imagine this scenario: In Pandora their own worlds, which is probably set in an Anime-ish world (thanks, Japan), rabbits are like human beings - they talk, they wear clothes, they celebrate during Sundays, they function like a regular human being, to cut it short. I just realized that this post is gonna be oh so controversial when it finishes, Imma work this out in the end. Therefore, rabbits can have BIG GUNS. Yes, the big guns loved by big boys and men alike. Uhuh, you know it - like AK-47 rifles. Yeah, those type of guns. What were you thinking? Nevermind, just keep it to yourself. Read on, and get your pants back on.

Plans (which will surely remain as plans)

Since it's summer, I want to do a lot of things. New things, to be exact. Ha ha, I know that's not exactly exact, but let me pass this time. Also, I'm not used to make to-do lists or any related lists. I keep it in my mind, make it spontaneous.

Among the things I'd like to do this summer, here are the exciting ones:

1. Gym membership or simply go to the gym and work out
2. Go scuba-diving in the aquariums
   
3. Take skiing lessons
4. Register in a sports club
5. Desert Safari!

I really wanted to make this as confidential as possible, but I guess I could cut off some slack since it's summer.

For the Gym Membership. Simple. I just want to work out. Nuff said. Scuba-diving seems fun, so yeah. With the sharks, fishes, and manta rays. Yum! Oops. Skiing lessons, for me to go to the top of the hill. I need to have some prior experience and I don't see the need for me to stumble every single time I try to ski. Too bad I won't be able to do this often though. Sports Club. Tennis will do, I like Tennis. Archery will do too, provided I get to wear Oriental clothes. Baah. Desert Safari. Nuff Said. Too bad it's so hot.

As I said earlier in my recent blog post, I'm devastated. Private reasons. So it reflects on my blog. Hey, it's mine after all.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: The Last Installment

The final installment of the Harry Potter series is now up - with a trailer. Watch it here:

After an extended opening showing Harry (Daniel Radcliffe) approaching Lord Voldemort (Ralph Fiennes), the trailer blazes through a montage of some of the big action moments in the films: Harry flies over London on Hagrid's motorcycle, runs for his life through the forest, and gets attacked by a giant snake. Harry's friends also get to show their heroic sides, with Hermione (Emma Watson) standing up to a threat with wand drawn, and Ron (Rupert Grint) swinging a sword.

The trailer also gives a look at the epic scope of the movies. It shows the gigantic dragon that guards the vaults of Gringotts Bank. Hogwarts is surrounded by a dome of fiery energy. And the students run away as the school is blasted with explosions. It all leads up to Harry and Voldemort facing off against each other in the courtyard, locked in their climatic battle.

You're not going to get to see that fight, though, for another year. The first part of "The Deathly Hallows" will open in theaters on November 19 of this year, but the second half won't be out until July 15, 2011. That will be nearly 10 years since the first movie hit screens in 2001.

Splitting one massive "Potter" book into two movies isn't a new idea. The filmmakers considered splitting "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" into separate films, but decided instead to trim out many of the novel's subplots and just focus on Harry's story. That wasn't an option for the sprawling final book, so they chose to divide it into halves. Naturally, they did consult with J.K. Rowling first, and she agreed with their decision.

Both parts will be shown in 3D, though they were shot in 2D and will be converted in post-production. Segments of the past two "Potter" films were adapted to 3D, but this is the first time a full movie will undergo the process.

If you think that saying good-bye to Harry Potter will be emotional for you, don't worry, you're not alone. Daniel Radcliffe said in a recent interview that he and his costars were all overwhelmed when they filmed the final shot of the series. He told MTV, "I didn't expect myself to get particularly emotional but I really did." Radcliffe said the last shot he filmed was a simple stunt of him jumping and rolling onto a mat, and when that was finished, "It just was bizarre; really, really strange indeed."

I hope I won't be disappointed. Why? Because,

1. I have already read the book. I know all the twists and turns, what really happened, the real action, the scenes. Therefore, if an exciting part in the book is dropped in the movie, I shall truly be disappointed. Pretty much like the Half-Blood Prince. Lots of good scenes were omitted.
   
2. The book was such an exciting read. The movie should do it justice.
3. Since it's the last, why need to cut down costs? ha ha ha.

But since it will be divided into two parts, I think it will contain all the vital and critical scenes in the book. I really hope so, since the book was such a page-turner.


This is all I can blog, since I'm pretty much devastated these days. Sick and tired.

On being a bookworm

I won't deny that I am indeed what you call a bookworm. Yes, ever since I was a child (internet was still not rampant and fully developed, oh and you still can't copy your homework from Wikipedia), I really took pleasure in reading Groiler's (or was it Broiler's?) Encyclopedias. From A-Z, I read them all.


Oh, wait. Gimme a break. I was still a toddler back then, and yeah, I must admit. By 'reading', I mean looking at those nice, detailed and colored pictures on the book and reading their captions. That's considered reading, you know. But anyway, it still doesn't change the fact that whenever I touch a book (that I am interested in, of course), I won't stop reading it - especially when it's a page-turner! (yes, I am referring to you, Harry Potter. or J.K Rowling) And to those who are wondering what type of books, any book would do, as long as it's not related to books that are in the school's library or something. Math books? Out of the question.


So far, I have been reading Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (since I had nothing to do,meh) , and I only got to it a day ago. I only read on free time though, and by free time, I mean idle times, i.e., when I get off the internet, I'm bored to death, blahblah. And I'm also looking forward to finishing this book by tonight, as there are only less than 100 pages of the book left to be read. I don't intend in finishing all of my books right now though, as the books I only have ATM are 4.. and that includes Eclipse. Yes, Stephenie Meyer's.


And with that, something in me died a little bit. I guess I'm off installing a new game I just got recently. From being a bookworm, to being a hardcore videogamer-slash-fanboy. You knew it!
