For All You Harry Potter Fans Out There...

Oh. My. Freaking. Gosh. The set builders from Harry Potter have been working closely with Universal Studios to make a freaking Harry Potter theme park in Orlando, Florida (the place where all the GOOD amusement parks are). It opens this spring!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am a HUGE Harry Potter fan, so living in California and not Florida really, really, REALLY sucks right now. So, apparently it is everything you have ever dreamed of. You can walk through Hogwarts, go to Hogsmeade, get your own wand at Ollivanders, have a butterbeer at the Three Broomsticks; OH MY FREAKING GOSH. I need to go there. NOW.

So for super Harry Potter fans (like me), it is a MUST SEE attraction/theme park. This spring break I'm hopping onto the first plane going out to Orlando, Florida. It's with Universal Studios (next to Disney World and all that) and is about 20 acres of Harry Potter dreamland. (If only they could make the magic work there too...)

Hogwarts! I'm coming to see you soon!

...Anyone willing to buy me a ticket?


Song of the Day: Hedwig's Theme (duh!) - John Williams

Poem of the Day:
The Sorting Hat Song (the first book) - J.K. Rowling

Oh you may not think me pretty,
But don't judge on what you see,
I'll eat myself if you can find
A smarter hat than me.
You can keep your bowlers black,
Your top hats sleek and tall,
For I'm the Hogwarts Sorting Hat
And I can cap them all.
There's nothing hidden in your head
The Sorting Hat can't see,
So try me on and I will tell you
Where you ought to be.

You might belong in Gryffindor,
Where dwell the brave at heart,
Their daring, nerve, and chivalry
Set Gryffindors apart;
You might belong in Hufflepuff,
Where they are just and loyal,
Those patient Hufflepuffs are true
And unafraid of toil;
Or yet in wise old Ravenclaw, if you've a ready mind,
Where those of wit and learning,
Will always find their kind;
Or perhaps in Slytherin
You'll make your real friends,
Those cunning folks use any means
To achieve their ends.

So put me on! Don't be afraid!
And don't get in a flap!
You're in safe hands (though I have none)
For I'm a Thinking Cap!
