Yayness! : ) On Tuesday afternoon, I received a call informing me that I managed to get a pair of tickets to the gala premier of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. Like yay! My schedule went on very smoothly as I had tennis in the club in the evening, so once tennis was over, I could shower, have dinner at the club and then walk over to Lido where the gala premier was being held. Security was pretty tight that night. I guess they didn’t want to spoil it for the launch. We’re not allowed to take our mobile phones in and there were a couple of beefy guards stationed around with metal detectors. I felt like I was going to take a plane more than going to watch a movie.
Wani and I went for the movie even though the seats were pretty sucky. Actually they sucked. Anyway, I thought I was running late so I walked over as fast as I could. Then I remember I had forgotten to put on lip gloss. So there I was walking past The American Club putting on lip gloss as I walked past. I didn’t even know how I managed the feat; watching out that my heels didn’t get stuck in the drain, watching out for cars and putting it on without smudging. The Gurhka policeman stationed there looked very surprised I must say. So am I!
Anyway, I felt that the movie was pretty good. I would give it a 7.5 out of 10. I loved it when the scene where they were flying over London. The first time it was on broomsticks and the second was when they were on their way to the Department of Mysteries. Unfortunately, they didn’t feature Quidditch or Dolby. I’m seriously going to watch it again, with better seats this time round. (They reserved the best seats in the house for the stars. Like, what’s new?) Yay! Can’t wait!
