Looks so fake huh? Wait till it’s done!
It's hard to believe anything good could come out of Draco Malfoy's mouth but today in a media webcast, Draco (aka actor Tom Felton) let us know that the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, a 20-acre "fully immersive" theme park attraction would be opening at the Universal Studios Orlando in Spring 2010. Muggles and Wizards rejoice!
Tom Williams, chairman and CEO, Universal Parks and Resorts was joined by Harry Potter films production designer Stuart Craig and show producer Alan Gilmore to give out a special sneak peek of the most anticipated theme park attraction since...hmm...maybe since Disney World opened? You all know how nutty HP fans get over the newest books/films. But imagine what they'll do to experience riding a Hippogriff or sending owl mail or exploring forbidden rooms in Hogwarts Castle?
The Wizarding World of Harry Potter is part of the Universal Islands at the park where it will be its own sort of theme park within a theme park. All the rides, shops and dining experiences will be straight from the world of Harry Potter. Most importantly, it will be "truthful" to the visual images experienced through the films of Harry Potter.
"Everything will be scaled to size with an incredible level of detail," said Williams.
At the entrance to the Wizarding World, Hogwarts Express will be "billowing steam" and blowing its whistler to signal your arrival into the Hogsmeade station. From there, visitors can begin walking through Hogwarts Village, stopping into Zonko's Joke Shop, Honeyduke's Candy Shop, The Three Broomsticks and Hog's Head Pub. Word is that Three Broomsticks will serve traditional British fare and butterbeer but we're sure they'll have some cheeseburgers and fries as well.
The Wizarding World will also include an Owlery, a sort of open village meeting space where actual owls will rest in the space overhead. Ollivander's Wand Shop will feature an interactive wand shop where the wand will "choose" you much like it does in the Harry Potter books.
As for the rides, a high-speed rollercoaster inspired by the Tri-Wizard Tournament will be running as will a Hippogriff roller coaster where Hagrid teaches you how to "properly ride a Hippogriff."
But the biggest attraction for Harry Potter fans will be the Harry Potter and the Forbidden Journey experience within the towering Hogwarts Castle. This attraction will allow you to see some of the iconic spaces that exist within the castle. Williams promises visitors will be "swept up into a journey that really captures the great stories, great characters and great experiences from the books and the films." Pretty please say the Room of Requirement will be accessible here!
Upon leaving the castle to go back to Hogsmead, Filch's Emporium of Confiscated Goods will feature Ministry of Magic and Magical Creatures merchandise, Omnioculars and remote control Golden Snitches. Speaking of merchandise, there will be tons of Harry Potter merchandise available throughout the Wizarding World from Quidditch equipment to Triwizard apparel, Bertie Bott's candy, Extendable Ears, Spectrespecs and Remembralls. The Universal folk also said that the products have been developed specifically for the Wizarding World of Harry Potter and can only be bought here.
We're so excited for this experience to open in Spring we really can't control ourselves. Or as Draco Malfoy put it "It's going to blow some serious minds.

On Monday, The Great Director, Zan Azlee, cum our Great Film Lecturer, show us this film by Gus Van Sant, the Academy Award winning director, that directed Milk. This film is about Gus Van Sant’s fictional idea of how Kurt Cobain’s last days are like. Oh my goodness! So depressing! The whole film was about the Nirvana’s Frontman doing creepy things like wearing dresses, talking to himself and other craps. Not much conversation, that’s why it’s so boring.. I even slept, bought snacks and even went to the lab to check on my Facebook, that Kurt guy still haven’t die. Haha.. Damn depressing to wait for him to die. Anyway, I fell in love with this Boys II Men’s song that was featured in this film, On Bended Knee.. So beautiful. This is a heartbreak song, so doesn’t relate much to me, but i can feel it. Been there, done that.. So i wanna dedicate this song to those who just got their heartbroken and hopefully, after listening to this song, wake up and move on. Sometimes, these people that don’t see the greatness in you is just not worth bending down on your knees.. You’ll find someone better..
Darlin' I can't explain
Where did we lose our way
Girl it's drivin' me insane
And I know I just need one more chance
To prove my love to you
If you come back to me
I'll guarantee
That I'll never let you go
Can we go back to the days our love was strong
Can you tell me how a perfect love goes wrong
Can somebody tell me how to get things back
The way they use to be
Oh God give me a reason
I'm down on bended knee
I'll never walk again until you come back to me
I'm down on bended knee
So many nights I dream of you
Holding my pillow tight
I know I don't need to be alone
When I open up my eyes
To face reality
Every moment without you
It seems like eternity
I'm begging you, begging you come back to me
Can we go back to the days our love was strong
Can you tell me how a perfect love goes wrong
Can somebody tell me how to get things back
The way they use to be
Oh God give me a reason
I'm down on bended knee
I'll never walk again until you come back to me
I'm down on bended knee
Gonna swallow my pride
Say I'm sorry
Stop pointing fingers the blame is on me
I want a new life
And I want it with you
If you feel the same
Don't ever let it go
You gotta believe in the spirit of love
It can heal all things
We won't hurt any more
No I don't believe our love's terminal
I'm down on my knees begging you please
Come home
Can we go back to the days our love was strong
Can you tell me how a perfect love goes wrong
Can somebody tell me how to get things back
The way they use to be
Oh God give me a reason
I'm down on bended knee
I'll never walk again until you come back to me
I'm down on bended knee
Wanna build a new life
Just you and me
Gonna make you my wife
Raise a family
:[ I heard Jamie Yeo and Glenn Ong is divorced.. So sad. But i am sure the guys who watches ESPN are damn happy.
I skipped class today. Haha.. Too tired, was working last night till midnight. Sorry Resh and the PR people for not turning up for the blood donation event. Didn’t study much but at least i’ve covered 1 Chapter of Communication in Workplace. But still got so much more to cover, Info Tech, Films’s Assignment and Communication in Workplace’s assignment 2. :[

This week's Social & Business Communication classes is damn interesting. Watched videos for 2 classes. First was Al Gore's An Inconvenient Truth. I was tearing like mad. The truth about what is gonna happen to our world and how people now is so ignorance to this issue. Tho there is nothing we can do to stop these, we can all at least slow down the damage. I give a 4 out of 5.
Today we watched Control Room. About this news station in Iraq and how they deliver news to the people in Iraq and how the Americans think of this station and how horrible the war is. Again, it's really scary and painful to see what happened. Damn nice documentary i must say!!!
Wanna thank Miss Elaine for showing us such great videos during class. This is what i called Mass Com.
Anyway, it sucks when your good friend and your boyfriend isn't in a good terms with each other. :S But at least my demand is much higher now!
Life Is Short (4)
There had been lots of bad things happening around me, directly and indirectly.It's just so scary that's it's non-stop. Cases after cases, death after death. What worries me most now is my aunt, she was found in a hospital. So girls, please be attached and get hitch. If you don't, make sure you're alway connected to your friends and family. The most recent bad stuff that happened around me is this 16 years old girl, a sister of my mum's friend, had been kidnapped and murdered in Johor. Gosh.. Can read the details from here.
Anyway, life is short. Appreciate what you've got, especially your family and friends. Most importantly, take good care of yourself. Always be alert..
Life is short, does it mean i should go and be with Wankit now? Yes! But i guess not. If God wanna take me away now, it's meant to be. But if God wanna take him away from me, it's unfair!
