Serpensortia!

So sonshine. This was a great time! Favorite concert was definitely Thousand Foot Krutch. Great band. I wish that Falling Up would have been there this year but for the last few years they have been unable to make it for some reason. It happens. Don't really wanna say much on the subject of this because it's more of a go experience it type of thing. If any of you ever get the chance to go to a large music festival such as Sonshine take the chance! It is a great time and very fun thing to do with friends!

During sonshine I went and saw Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. Now, I am a huge fan of the books and The Half Blood Prince was my favorite out of them all. Because of this I expected to be dissapointed about this movie. I was very dissapointed as I expected, but that is because I was comparing it to the book. If you do that it always happens. It was a GREAT movie for sure. Here are a couple of things that annoyed me the most about the book to movie transition. SPOILER ALERT DON'T READ THE REST OF THIS PARAGRAPH IF YOU DON'T WANT IT SPOILED! The first thing that annoyed me was that Luna fixed Harry's nose. In the book Tonks did it. Now just that fact didn't annoy me it was the fact that they had several of the Order members (and others I believe) protecting the school, but they showed none of them in the movie. The second thing that annoyed me was that they never really told you that Ginny and Harry dated. They kiss once in the movie. In the book they have a longer relationship than what the movie gives you to think. Lastly, They didn't show the funeral. How could you skip Dumbledore's funeral!? Now of course there were more things that bothered me about the book to movie transition, but those are the top three.

Two questions today for the Readers Response. First is what did you think about the new Harry Potter movie? Second is what is your favorite Harry Potter Spell?

Thanks for reading and remember to comment and follow!

Hello,

In This Post
  • Sonshine Music Festival

Now, this will be a very short post. For the seven of you that actually read this, sorry, but i don't think you'll be too disappointed.

So, tomorrow morning I leave with my girlfriend to Sonshine Music Festival! If I counted correctly this will be my seventh year going and my first year driving myself. It is a Christian music festival and bands such as Skillet, Thousand Foot Krutch, Hawk Nelson, and many others will be there. That comment I made about having my pants pulled down while crowd surfing happend at this festival. Now anyone going I hope you have a great time. I know I will! I'll be gone till sunday afternoon and I will probably post that day, but possibly monday. Have a great week and weekend!

Hay... Is for Horses!

Hello,
It is now again time for another post on Pied Rant, the blog no one reads yet.

In This Post
  • Adventures of Hauling Hay
  • Readers Response
  • Questions Of The Week
  • Finishing Notes
So today, I woke up at 5:30 A.M. to drive an hour over to my aunts house to help them haul hay. This is the second year I've done this and I must say it is quite fun. Probably the biggest workout I get all year. At first you're thinking "Well this is easy," and throwing the hay all over, but you'll soon discover that you get tired fast. In the picture to your right is a lot what it looks like. The only difference is it's a trailer with a flat bed like that pulled by a modern day truck. After picking up all the hay and stacking it up like that we then had to go back and unload. This is where the fun part came in for me. I got to climb up to the top of the hay pile and throw them down for my cousin, Andrew, to stack. Now like I said earlier, at first it doesn't seem bad, but it gets tiring fast! I made the mistake of not pacing myself. Although this was a big workout it was a really fun thing to do. I wouldn't want to do it every day, but to do once a year is fun.

For this week's reader's response I want you all to tell me something that is very hard, but fun to do every once and awhile. For me it was helping haul hay.

Questions of the Week!

Now I know I said I was going to use the random question generator, but I now realize those questions are ridiculous. Here is the only question I have gotten so far.

Q: What is the most embarrassing thing you have ever done in public?
A: Well honestly, I haven't done a ton of embarrassing things in public. Probably the worst thing that has happened to me would be something like farting really loud in a public place. There was this one time where I was crowd surfing at a Thousand Foot Krutch concert and as I was above everyone someone pulled my pants down. That is about it.

To finish up I just really wanna say that you all should submit questions to me so I don't only have one in each post! I wanna try to have up to seven in a post each week. Please spread the link to your friends to try to get them to read. I will try to post every day on a variety of things anywhere from what I did today to the latest news. Thanks for reading!
