Shoe Day

You can really make
any day a shoe day!
I did NOT want to go in DSW today.
Just not in the mood.

But then...
[cue the magical music]




My biggest facination:
The teeniest shoebox I've ever seen.


literally.


It opens up...
And out pops some ballet flats.
Not that I really wear ballet flats...

But...
It's like a little present.
I want to put a bow on it.

Dear Shoebox Makers,
Ya did good.

This is what happens
when you google Harry Potter.


I was actually going for Harry, but whatever.
It's Rob Pattinson!


I'm not quite sure, but are they holding hands?


Oh my gosh, get this girl a runway,
because she is FIERCE.


Who else loves it everytime Ron says, "Bloody Hell"? :)


"HARRY! You've got that crazy look in your eye!"
-Dumb & Dumber


Apparently, this is what Harry Potter would look like
if half of his face was Froto.


Someone felt compelled
to create this artistic interpretation of Crookshanks.


OMGAH!


Fashionistas


Emma Watson is fierce.


My kitten has a crush on Emma Watson.


Darth Vader for Harry Potter.


Um. Twilight...?



And lets not forget this gem!
:)

Gather 'round, friends...

There is more to the LIL C story.
As you may recall, LIL C is majorly in love with me
and @ replied me on twitter. Once.
No...
Three times.



The night of the infamous @ reply by LIL C,
I told him that I would see Harry Potter with him any day
and have a deep conversation about what it "lacc'd"and he "concurred,"to which I tweeted something embarrassingly fangirl
and then recomposed myself and left it at a simple:
"Offer still stands to @kingofkrump."



I was (happily) shocked when I woke up the next morning to find
A LIL C TWEET waiting in my @ reply box.



He clearly loves me.
I also tweeted "Liz loves @kingofkrump" and got this gem:


So, basically, we're BFFs.


And I'm getting this.


.....And this....
;)

"Tweet Secrets" with Liz

This is a new "feature" I will be adding to the blog.
Five secrets a post. Can you handle?




1. BumpIt iPhone App
Apparently, two iPhone owners open this application on the phone
and literally bump phones to swap contact info.
Not twitter, but fun networking ;) & totally FREE!





2. Pingwire.com, the Live Twitpic Feed.
See what everyone is Twitpic-in'!




3. Twonvert App.
OMG LOL. It "twonverts" or shortens your text into
"shorthand language" Gettin' all abbreviated.
Sounds very LIL C.




4. Quitter App.
Now you know it when someone quits following you.
Hmmm... maybe we'd rather be in the dark?
Willing to try it and see who dares. ;)




5. The wonderful bit.ly
Shorten, tweet, and track your URLs.
Now we're talking!
It's amazing.
You can see how many ppl click on your link.
And tweet big links that would never fit into 140 characters!
FAV!

OMG!

I'm totally flipping out!.
Story time:
Ok forget story time, stop the press!
LIL 'C aka best judge ever
JUST @ replied me on twitter.
REPEAT:
The King of Krump.


He gave some fabulous and thoughtful reviews about the Harry Potter movie, so I said that I'd go see Harry Potter any day with
@kingofkrump
and that me and LIL C can have a deep conversation
about what it "lacc'd"



Much to my surprise, he "concurred"


And what did I do? Like a NERD I posted
"@Kingofkrump @ replied me!!!!!!!! :) Day made for LIFE! Omg let's go see Harry Potter! He concurs!"

Now he thinks I'm a nerd....
He loves it, whatever.

Okay, I just redeemed myself. I said, "Offer still stands to @kingofkrump"
I'm so brave online!
Haha.
But how cool would that be to see Harry Potter and then
have a deep conversation with the king of krump about it.
It would make me extremely happy.

Gettin' all Perezy with my images ;)

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Vanishing Cabinet

Hello! Ok. So.
Let's talk! HP&HBP
(Harry Potter & the Half Blood Prince)


MINDSET GOING INTO THE WHOLE THING:
I'm centering my whole week on this movie.
The previews look sooo good.
Finally, I'm in the theater and
the lights are dimming.
OMG!
I am yet to read the book, so this is my
first Half-Blood Prince
experience.
What can I say,
I love the element of surprise!


The Breakdown
Usually, the HP movies are centered around a plot
and then some mysterious subplot develops. Well, this felt like
one giant subplot. I wish there were more "OMG Harry, what is going
on with this book, lets investigate" of a plot.
Or something!
It was more like a
Half-Blood Vanishing Cabinet
than the Half-Blood Prince.

1. Where is that Harry Potter
angst that was growing
in the last few movies?


2. What happened to the
over-controlling
Cornelius Fudge?


3. What resulted from the
Death Eater attack
in the Muggle world?


4. Harry Potter looked like he
was more into the waitress
than Ginny, srsly?? NO!


5. If I saw Draco Malfoy go
into that room with the Vanishing Cabinet
one more time I think I'd question my sanity. LOL


6. "Half-Blood Prince" was dropped
after five minutes and then brought up
at the end for a sec. what?


7. And finally, where the heck is
He Who Must Not Be Named?
(Is he in that book??)



However,

1. I loved Ron & Hermione!
(LOL @ this pic)

2. There were some VERY funny parts (Ice cream scene)
3. Scaryyy- The girl who was cursed outside in the snow. That was scary!
4. My peanut butter M&M's were delicious.
5. I just love Harry Potter.
So woo!


I'm gonna read the book bc from what I hear, it is awesome.
And I bet it will answer all my questions.

What did you think of the movie?
