Hello Everyone,
I have thought about posting a new blog for a while but I didn't know quite what this should be able. I am currently watching Harry Potter 7 Part 2 with some of the guys at Saint John's and I still don't see how anyone can even consider comparing this movie to The Hunger Games. Now you might ask, but yes I did see the Hunger Games this weekend and no I have not read the books. What did I think of the Hunger Games? I would probably give it an 8.5/10 and that was without reading the book. The effects were awesome and the storyline was so good. I currently have a reading list and Hunger Games is definitely on it. Currently I am reading a book that Cassidy got me called Inside Apple by Adam Lashinsky. It is on Apple and how secretive and admired the company is. It is very good so far and I believe that after this book is done I will read the Hunger Games as well as the last Harry Potter book. Yeah you might think it is weird but for some reason I never finished the 7th book even though the movie is probably one of my all time favorites. We just decided to rank the movies and I would like to hear some of your opinions. Mine go like this.
-HP 7 Part 1 and 2 (Go Together)
- Goblet of Fire
- Half Blood Prince
- Prisoner of Azkaban
- Sorcerer's Stone
- Order of the Phoenix
- Chamber of Secrets
Obviously that is my own opinion but as I have asked other people I believe almost everyone says that the 2nd one is towards the bottom. Leave a comment with your response so I can see what you guys think.
Another thing that I thought of when I woke up this Summer, is why in the hell is it so cold today? We have had such nice weather lately and all of a sudden it actually felt like March today. Hopefully it is warm the rest of the week so that I can go golfing this weekend. I am hopefully going to take Steve Swansen for his birthday and then go to dinner at Maynards to see Jessie Grover, Lexi Ball, Jenn Huber, and others that I haven't seen in a while. Thursday March 29th marks the Birthday of Lexi, Steve, as well as Colton Reed. It is weird that three people who have made such an impact in my life are all born on the same day. I hope I am able to celebrate this weekend with all three of them at some point.
I will close today's post with my Final Four Picks for next weekend. I hate Ohio State so I hope that Kansas beats Ohio State and Louisville over Kentucky. I think the Kentucky team is very talented but I really do not believe in Calipari's system of bringing in Freshmen for one year then sending them to the NBA. Yeah it seems like it is working but it still hasn't won him a championship and I hope he doesn't receive one this year either. Also last night I watched the OKC/Heat game and believe that OKC will win the NBA Championship if they stay healthy. They have such good chemistry, and being a SuperSonics fan growing up it would be nice to see them win one. I hope to hear feedback from you and as always, see you soon friend.
