Pottering-the Half Blood Prince

Pottering the Half Blood Prince... Yesterday was the long awaited outing together with the Odac peeps...planned and organised by Papa Bear during Bing's wedding... the big outing to catch Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince together.....

So we met up for dinner at 8ish...intro them all (those who came for dinner) to the Wanton Mee recommended by Teck..and then we went back to Grand Cathay to hang around till movie time and for the rest to come....

All in all there was a total of 18 who was supposed to watch the show...but only 17 (Me & Leongie, Meiyu & Yew Tien, Skee & Terry, Papa & Mummy Bear, Chimy, Carol, ZhuZhu & CK, Yucheng, VinVin, Ah Ryl, Rohting, Weilun) of us turned up...except for Vin's gf who fell sick.. =(
anyways... its been a long while since we had such a big turnout for the gathering...hehe

Well me aint really a harry potter die hard fan...(not in terms of the book), but I do enjoy watching the movie...I havent read any series of the book and i don't intend to..but i do kinda know bits and pieces of what happens in the end, from hearing from friends....But yupz.. I do enjoy watching the past few parts of HP.. especially the odd number parts... I dun really enjoy part 2 and neither did i enjoy part 4 (where most people like..cos of Cedric haha)... I remember i like part 5 cos it was getting more exciting cos of the fight between HP and the death eaters... but was sad that one of my favourite character died-Sirus Black...

Anyhow... knowing what happens in book 6 (ahem....death of the headmaster) i kinda had some biased towards the movie already...nonetheless, i kept an open mind and watched the show... At the end of it... well the rest of them...most didnt really like part 6...cos it was abit "DUH" cos of the ending...."Yes...I am the half blood prince"....and cos there wasnt much action in the movie....but still.. i guess it was a not too bad series for me in preparing for part 7..... and to think i got to wait like 1 year for that...lallala
On a different note... well Leongie never did watch any HP or LOTR even...but cos of HP part 6, i kinda made him crash course all the previous HP..(and as of yesterday, he only managed to watch 1, 2 and 3 before he watch part 6)..but well he said he will wanna watch part 4 and 5 soon, cos i told him i prefer part 5 more to part 6.....and soon...I will get him to watch LOTR too and convert him to a LOTR fan as well..hahah

Oh wellz, we've been going around places for furniture shopping..and its not an exception today...went loads of places to see furniture....cos we are getting our keys to the new place soon....

cant wait.... and well Pray for finances, pray for smart and wise decisions to be made for the renovations, pray for smooth moving in, and pray for God's presence to dwell in the house as we prepare to move in.. =)
