Also, I'd planned a really good blog entry.. but.. I can't remember. GODDAMN. =)))) This is so horribly unfair.
Anyway. I am back in Manila. Until tomorrow, at least. Picking up the Mindstorms kit, plus my ACET forms, plus slippers, cookies, Von Dutch clothes, and an extra something that will make someone go O_O
Haha. OKAY.
This shall be a character-appreciation blog! (:
Narcissa Malfoy.
She married the wrong sort of man, but I don't think you can deny that her love for her boy is so amazing. The first thing she asked Harry was where he was, if he was alive. She risked her life for that. If she'd been found out, well. We all know Voldy. I mean, really. That was her first priority. She went up against Bellatrix, just to make sure he was alright. She made Snape take the Unbreakable Vow, so Draco wouldn't come to harm. And I give a round of applause to the directors and screenwriters, who pulled off the Malfoy family's walkout so flawlessly. It was so beautiful. Not caring that a war was going to be waged behind her, she just took her son's hand and never looked back. I just think people should recognize her more. I love how she loves him.
Draco Malfoy.
Well, he's got his fangirls, but how many people only began appreciating him from the fifth book onwards? And yes, Tumblr posts say most of what I want to, but hey. Requotes! Haha. Draco really was the first person to try and make friends with Harry. And he didn't even know it was Potter. He was being genuinely nice. And when he offered Harry his hand, he was just looking out for a fellow kid. I honestly think if Harry had let himself be put in Slytherin, they'd have been good friends, at least. Draco was a boy who made all the wrong choices, to put it in someone's very eloquent words. He fell under the curse of Slytherin house, mainly that they were detested for being thought to being detesting. Honestly. If you put someone in a bad light and hate them completely and let their horrible reputation precede them, well of course they'd have no choice but to end up the way you see them. Sort of like the self-fulfilling prophecy. Someone tells you you'll go to the park today.. and you go to the park thinking that, well, it was bound to happen anyway. Idiot.
Severus Snape.
Honestly, if he didn't look the way he did, I would love him to bits. By the way, has anyone noticed that the kid Snape from 7.2 looks kind of like Gerard Way? O_O I swear to god. =))))
Anyway. Well. This is unrequited love from the very beginning. It must have been hell to see Harry every day, seeing James in that disrespectful, defiant face, but Lily in those brave eyes. I guess he didn't know how to feel about Harry, since he was James' son.. but also Lily. How painful must it have been, to have the one person you love die for the son of someone you hated so dearly. That scene where he was holding her, I cried. Both times. AAGH. He really was the bravest man Harry ever knew. Not just for facing death fearlessly, with his one concern to keep Lily's son safe, but for putting up with all sorts of hell just for that love. Because he loved her that much. He's .. unconditional, unrequited love. He must have been so difficult to want him, but he.. agh. I'm getting all senti. OTL I can't go on. I just can't. Every time I try to say something I tear up. This is just so painful. Nevermind.

I have the Mindstorms kit in my hands. How bitterly ironic that I paid for more than half, and I'll never get to use it. Urgh. D:

I'm going to re-read Good Omens now. I don't have anything left to say. I give up. This was supposed to be an epically long blog entry, but.. well.

I saw something a while ago. I didn't like what I saw, much. Bothersome~

We're going swimming later. :D
Why is there no appreciation for James Potter. D: lately with all the Snape love people have forgotten just how amazing James/Lily really is,and that makes me sad. They're my HP OTP. TT^TT
