Obituary for Hermione Jane GrangerHermione Jane Granger

She Will Be Loved

Hermione Jane Granger, 15, of London was born a muggle-born but had more wisdom and talent for magic than any pure-blood would ever have. She was found in the MOM by Albus Dumbledore after she gave her life to defend and protect Harry James Potter.

Ms. Granger was the top student in her year at Hogwarts and idolized by girls who sought to be compassionate, independent, morally true and intelligent in their character. She will be missed by all except Harry Potter and Ginny Weasley. Ms. Weasley was quoted as saying “I am glad she is out of the picture now.” “Now we know it can be Harry and me who will have many beautiful red haired babies we can name after his mom.” “She should have never been in the picture since she isn’t beautiful like me, sarcastic and knows how to get a man”. Mr. Potter was quoted as saying ” Well, she served her purpose but she isn’t beautiful and immoral like my Ginny is.” “She didn’t smell like flowers but I used her when I needed trusted information and to get my hide out of trouble.” Ron Weasley had no comment since his mouth was full of food and he was in pursuit of a blond haired woman through the funeral home. Professor McGonagall was quoted as saying “Hermione was my favorite student. She was a true Gryffindor to the end and loved by all.”

Hermione Jane Granger is survived by her parents.

Services will be held at 2:00 p.m. in the Great Hall of Hogwarts. Albus Dumbledore will be officiating. The casket will be carried by Hagrid, Remus Lupin, Professor Victor, Professor Sprout and Dobby the House Elf. She will be laid to rest in the Godric Hollow Memorial Cemetery at 3:00 p.m. on June 3.

Those who wish to send flowers are encourage to send donations to S.P.E.W. instead.

The movie list is always never ending. Hello, everyone. Still me in Sweden, but will be hitting Madrid in a couple of days – too bad I will be missing the Harry Potter premiere… will probably catch it over the weekend when I get back home.

I saw La Mome, and added new films to my list of films that I wanna watch… check it out here! Cya!

Hej, everyone!

Decided to take time to blog for a little while. It’s been an interesting stay in Sweden until now… Stockholm is pretty awesome. Julyssa is a kick ass tour guide! Who knew Pippi Longstockings was Swedish =P – I loved walking around town… I’ve got an article about this whole trip, including my stay in Solna, Stockholm, Gotland, Visby, Ludvika, and who knows where the wind takes me … :)

Weather is a bit shifty, but I’m always prepared… but Swedish summer is no Peruvian summer. xD

Anyway, it’s time I crash the bed… it’s been a long week. Hej da!

Ok, it’s been like a year since I last updated my music player, so I decided to do it now, since I’m traveling next week and won’t get a chance to do it later. The old player had old hits like “Ready to Make Nice” by the Dixie Chicks, “I Bet that You Look Good on the Dance Floor” by Arctic Monkeys, songs by OK Go, Norwegian hit Marit Larsen… now, this is the list:

  1. E Ha’i Ana Wau by Green Light Go (lyrics)
  2. Falling Slowly by Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova
  3. Filter Factory by Dee
  4. Funky Dancers by Antigone
  5. Habanera by East Village Opera Company
  6. Johnny Negro by Quad Riot (lyrics)
  7. Little of your Time by Maroon 5
  8. My Alcoholic Friends by The Dresden Dolls
  9. Outta my Way by Damone
  10. Sur la Colline de Delos by Kazumi and Maia
  11. Takarajima by Kobukuro (lyrics)
  12. When I Get Where I’m Going by Brad Paisley and Dolly Parton
  13. WINDING ROAD by Ayaka and Kobukuro

So head back up to the Music Player link and open it up! Leave a comment, and don’t steal. If you enjoy the music, support the artist.

Quad Riot lyrics!

Thanks to Johnny Saunders, member of Quad Riot, I’ve got the lyrics to their song Johnny Negro… in case anyone needs them. You can buy the song through iTunes, or their Fandango link.

I will hopefully try to get the lyrics to Ctrl Alt Del soon. :P

Some time ago, I found a little graphic that illustrates work very well, so I’ll share :)

Good, Cheap & Fast

Those are the three basic elements in a project. You will never be able to get the three of them together… in a realistic project of course! So you can either get a GOOD project done FAST, but it’ll cost you $$$ – Some people want it GOOD and CHEAP, but that will take time. Other will want it FAST and CHEAP, but it will probably NOT be good.

So… whenever your client asks you, show them the graphic, and tell them they get to choose… it’s good for you, and good for your business!

So… I might be planning to compile the lyrics to Celtic Woman: A New Journey – Live @ Slane Castle, Ireland – in the meantime, I’ve only got my favorite chapters/songs/performances of the show.

  2. The Prayer
  3. Caledonia
  4. Newrange
  5. Orinoco Flow
  6. Dúlaman
  7. The Blessing
  8. Scarborough Fair

  10. Over the Rainbow
  11. Beyond the Sea

  14. Carrickfergus
  15. Sing Out!

Okay, so I was watching an episode of Desperate Housewives on Sony (Entertainment Television), which had no Bree – AT ALL. The episode sucked so badly, I felt sorry for it. Seriously, the best character of the show is Bree hands down, without Marcia Cross, DH will drop down on ratings. So, in the light of this crappy episode, I wanted to make a list of my favorite TV characters, in no particular order~

Miss Universe 2007

May 28, 2007 — 3 Comments

What’s up with a Dallas sportsman, the Heroes guy, and all those judges in the panel for Miss Universe, lol.

I wonder which countries could be in top 15, if you had to vote without knowing the country of the candidates. Just… you know – throwing this out there, so it can be considered for the next one. xD – seriously, if you get a panel of judges who are American, they are probably going to vote for the US – and the hosting country will always get to at least top 5.

But, oh no! Imagine not knowing who the heck is the hosting country candidate… maybe she will not even be top 15. Now that’d be an interesting thing to watch.
.
.

So, Top 10 was announced, and no Europeans were in it. Noticing all the contestants, you could notice all countries have chosen clear skin, and the most noticeable was almond-shaped eyes, over big eyes… very Asian-like shapes, without being just lines. You could noticed that even in South American contestants. Europe, on the other hand, seemed to send contestants that were not that ‘exotic’ looking. It was odd. The first thing I thought was ‘Europe has not redefined their beauty’ – While there’s been a huge increase in Asian contestants… the funny thing was that I could hardly notice any difference between Japan and Korea… and even Thailand that made it to the Top 15.

Perhaps its my Western eye that can’t quite make the difference, or perhaps it’s because Asian countries have made their standards and are closely following them.

Okay, my theory is rubbish, at least the hosting country one. No Mexico in Top 5, and there’s too much booing right now, and I’ve got no idea why. My question to Venezuela – lol, what’s your opinion of what’s happening in your country right about… now? xD – – – Seriously, these questions are retarded. What would you choose, a wild spontaneous man, or a goody one? Superpowers, wtf? How about asking some really hard moral/ethical/logical thinkers like what’s your position on same sex marriage, what is your definition of family? – And… was Miss USA being booed? Lol, seriously – Miss USA shouldn’t have been there. Tripping over during competition should automatically kick you out.

Best moments:

  • Miss Japan on the country/candidate introduction.
  • Miss Korea saying she enjoyed photography, and the archive footage showing her taking herself a digital photo… Korean style.
  • Miss USA falling. The unexpected expected~~ xD

Lol, shit – Miss Japan won. That’s cool. Well, I called it!! Asian-like eyes… clear skin. She was ‘the one’ (lol, sorry… Matrix just began) – she was the one when she said “hola Mexico!” – oh you all knew it. That sealed the deal. You gotta admit.

Oh! I call it! Just a few seconds after transmission~~ this is a HEADLINE! xD
