Dear Dayre,
HAPPY DIWALI YALLLLLLLLL.
What I spent Diwali doing – Watching the last HP movie (Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2) with π³π» while chilling at a cafe.
Honestly running out of places to go in Singapore, especially when the crazy hot weather makes being outdoors such a painnnnnnn. How do the rest of y'all cope cos I really cannot tahan π π»
So π³π» and I went to Harry Potter Studio while we were in London earlier last month and I had a really good time while he walked through the entire exhibition feeling bemused and incredulous at my love for HP.
I made him start watching the first movie and since then we've watched all seven movies already πππ
For the record, I am a HUGE fan of the books, not the movies – but since the movies are more palatable, I decided to start him off on the movies first.
I think I've actually turned him into a grudging fan because since he started watching the movies, he's been asking me all kinds of Harry Potter related questions like…
"Why is Snape the Half-Blood Prince??"
"How come Voldemort's wand can't beat Harry?"
and other sorts of questions to which I am like… "YOU NEED TO READ THE BOOKSSSSS."
π
Nope not spoiling it for him. The books are so much more enjoyable with so many details that are left out in the movies!
Harry's cupboard under the stairs π
Hagrid's hut
Hogwarts Express! π
Miniature model of the Hogwarts Grounds!
Ollivander's Wand Shop!
And the cute cats that play Crookshanks! Read the descriptions if you can hehe they are super adorbs πππ
I had butter beer ice cream!!
Damn sweet. Lol π
By the way, there were three photo stations for the famous "disappearing into the wall" at Platform 9 3/4 scene lol! Very smart of the studio because it's possibly the most popular photo spot in the entire place.
