There will be, once again, no word count on here because I have not been updating like usual so there are a few things to get in.
First of all: Relay. I was up the entire time. I did not get any sleep. It might be because I was not lying down in the back of the Jeep like usual. Rather, I was in the passenger seat with it reclined.
Second: The Harry Potter books. I started reading the books on either June 14th or 15th. I read the first book, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, in a whopping ten hours. I read the second one, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, in either eleven or twelve hours. I read the entire series within a month. Possibly three weeks. The only book that took the longest was the fourth one, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. But that is because I was trying to read it on the weekend of Relay and I kept on falling asleep like there was no tomorrow while I was trying to read it here in my room. It is not that the book was boring! Do not get me wrong! I love the book! It is just that Relay wiped the floor with me.
Third: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2. Let us just say: Tissues! I do not know how many times I cried during that movie. There was only one part where I was bawling like crazy and that was when Snape was with Voldemort. I knew that Snape was going to be killed so I started crying immediately. And when Nagini started slamming into Snape, I had to look away. I liked his memories, but I just think that they were a bit rushed but definitely slower than his memories in the fifth movie, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. And Snape leads me to the final point.
For about several days before the movie was to come out in theaters, I have been having Snape/Lily moments. All of those days leading up to when I could actually go see the final movie was filled with looking for pictures of Snape and Lily, watching videos of them, and just plain thinking about them. It was even filled with listening to three songs like crazy: "Lily's Theme," "Snape's Demise," and "Severus and Lily."
Snape's memories: Like I said, they seemed kind of a bit rushed but not as rushed as those in the fifth movie. They were, if I recall, overlapping one another rather than having only ten seconds a scene. When Snape met Lily, absolutely no talking, even when they were laying next to each other under a tree. When Lily was sorted into Gryffindor, you see her shake hands with a boy who said his name was James and she said that hers was Lily. And when James and Sirius were running through the halls and knocked the books out of Lily's hands, James and Lily looked at each other like, "Yeah. I am so gonna marry him/her when I grow up." Um. Hello! That is not how it went! She is supposed to hate James until their seventh year! Do not make it seem like they have a connection as soon as they start! And I just felt so terrible for Snape throughout the whole thing.
And when Snape appeared in Godric's Hollow and found Lily dead on the floor in Harry's nursery, that was emotional. I did not really cry during that scene because, well, I was spoiled. People who went to see the final movie on Friday and Saturday were making short videos using Snape's memories from the final movie. The very first video I watched with Snape finding Lily dead and him crying just had me bawling. That was on Friday. I am quite amazed that Dad did not ask what was going on. I do not think I could have hidden it from him that I was getting spoilers from the movie before I had even seen it. And I could not stop downloading the good ones because I was afraid that they would disappear before I could even get online on Sunday after seeing the movie. And I have still been downloading videos of Snape and Lily, just a short nine days later.
And about Snape and Lily, I have had a couple of ideas for music videos. But they include Snape's memories from the final movie. So, I have to wait until the movie comes out on DVD before I can make a video about the both of them. The two songs that I want to use are: "My Love Is Always There" from the Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2 soundtrack. I only just listened to the song yesterday and I had the idea that the song can be about the both of them after having died. The other song is "With Eyes Wide Shut" by blessthefall.
Lastly, Torchwood. This past weekend, I have been watching Torchwood: Miracle Day. Miracle is when absolutely nobody on the planet dies. In the first episode, Jack ended up getting hurt. And it did not heal. At the end of it, Rhys wondered if the roles were reversed. Everyone was mortal while Jack was the only one who was immortal. Now, everyone is immortal and Jack is the only one who is mortal. Which brings me to the second episode.
In that episode, Jack was poisoned and was dying. I was feeling two different emotions while he was dying. The first emotion was sadness that Ianto was not there to be with Jack. The other emotion was kind of happiness. It was that Ianto was not there to see Jack go through what he was going through. If Ianto was there, he would have been probably in tears. And then the third episode.
I hated it because Jack slept with some bartender guy. When the guy was sleeping, Jack called Gwen and talked to her. Ianto was brought up but I do not remember what was said. If I recall, I think that Jack said that he misses Ianto. I personally hope that Jack is feeling upset over losing Ianto. The roles of them are now the same. When Jack was immortal, Ianto was mortal and dying, in Jack's arms! Now, Jack is mortal and is dying. Unfortunately, I can't say that Ianto is immortal because, unfortunately, he died. But yeah. I hope that Jack is feeling upset over Ianto dying.
Apparently there are going to be some memories from Jack and Gwen's past in one of the future episodes. I think episode nine. And then someone on a website either posted a link or a post of a post that the band Gareth David-Lloyd (Ianto) is a part of posted about having to cancel a two-week concert because Gareth was in America (which is where Miracle is being filmed). So, there is a possibility that Ianto is coming back, although in memories. And I am hoping that if the memories do contain Ianto, the editors are not taking clips from previous episodes and adding them into the new episodes or having them redo scenes. I hope that they come up with whole new, different scenes. I can't wait to see if Ianto is mentioned again. I also hope that it is true that Gareth was in America. Especially if there was the possibility that he was filming scenes for Miracle.
Also, there is another Torchwood radio play. The latest of the plays is called Torchwood: The Lost Files. One of them is called, "The House of the Dead." This one has Ianto and Jack as main characters. Ianto is in the bar where a seance is going on. He gets in contact with "Gwen" who says that "she" is on "her" way. Eventually Jack shows up. Both of them go through the entire show, figuring out what is going on. Towards the end, Ianto's dad appears and tells Jack that he can leave now with "him" (Ianto). When his dad disappears, he asks Jack what his dad was talking about. Come to find out, Ianto is dead. No, I mean, Ianto's spirit is walking around the place. Jack talks to Ianto and ends up saying the wrong words. Something to the extent of: "I can't even bear to look at you." I was like, "Excuse me?! You're going to say that to him?!" When Jack tried to touch Ianto, Ianto said something to the extent of, "Don't touch me!" And then, before the Rift closes with Ianto holding some kind of technology from Jack (Ianto had the opportunity to go back to the real world but he decided in the end not to), Jack says to Ianto, "I love you." Ianto says, "I love you, too." HALLELUJAH!! Jack finally told Ianto how he feels!! And then, when the Rift closes and Jack was left on his own, he said, "Good-bye, Ianto." The End. I hated that Ianto did not leave with Jack and he definitely died. But, I am glad that Jack at least told Ianto how he felt.
And now, I am working on another two videos on Jack and Ianto. This time, it is coming from Ianto's point of view rather than Jack's point of view. Which reminds me, I finished those two videos about Jack and Ianto using Jack's point of view a couple of months ago. Anyway! I am using the song "Pieces" by Red and "What About Us" by John Barrowman. I have clips for "Pieces" ready. I just have to add them, edit them, and save the video to my computer before work on "Us."

A Weird Dream Once Again
There is no word count on here because I don't think that dreams should be expected to be written between 450 and 600 words.
Once again, I had a weird dream. And yes, it involved Chris. Hopefully I can remember as much as possible because I am writing this about half-an-hour after I woke up, and I also had to clean up the mess that Indie made along with Mom's torn-up-by-Indie carnations. So, here I go...
Either I woke up on my own and went out to the front room or Sarah woke me up but either way, she told me something about it being my day or something. Anyway, I went out to the front room and Chris had just taken off his shoes. Sarah went and brought out a dress,which ended up being for me. The dress was my wedding dress! It was mostly white. It was kind of layered but then it kind of wasn't. The "layer" around the waist was yellow while the bottom of the dress was, I think, red. A photo was taken by the main frame of my shock.
I end up going to where a wedding would be taking place. It was at West Side Park but the room was definitely different. The room was definitely smaller and to get to it, you had to walk up a few stairs. Anyway, I walk up the stairs and I see this room filled with purple wedding decorations, Dad bending over, working on something, another guy working on something, and Chris looking at me while he was standing by a table. After seeing that this was all for me, I gasped with the need for air, and I started to cry. Chris walked over and hugged me.
Everything had been done in secret. From the wedding dress to the reception hall to the decorations and probably even further down to the First Dance. But yeah, I was shocked by everything.
Mom and Sarah walked into the room and one of them handed me my dress and told me to go get ready. When I came out from changing, it was filling up with people. I even saw an Amish couple. And now that I think about it, it might be because of where Chris works. But anyway!
Mom handed me money and said something to the extent of: "This is for when you go swimming." She then handed me a room key and said, "This is in case you get angry," or something like that. Or it just might have been the room key and not to any "in cases." I then told Mom and Sarah that I didn't have any shoes (appropriate shoes because I might have been wearing sneakers or something) and for someone to go home, go into my orange backpack, and grab my flats. But now, I realize that black shoes and white dresses simply don't go together. So, I would like to think that they simply forgot about handing me my new white dress shoes and they were simply in a corner of the room or still out in the vehicle. But anyway, when Mom left to go get the shoes, I began pacing up and down one side of a table while guests were still filing in. Dad was on the other side, also pacing. Dad told me something to the extent of: "I had my day, now this is your day." And then I went back to pacing.
The End
I know, I know. Not much of a dream. I told myself that if I am having more and more dreams about Chris because the "10th year anniversary" is coming up, I will kill myself. I don't think I could imagine me happily agreeing to marry him, let alone anyone. If I agreed to marry someone, I think it would just be the fact that I would share, not just a bed, but a house with that person. But, yeah. That's how my dream went.
