Early Dismissal = Harry Potter 7!

Lalalalala! I'm in such a happy mood today, because I got to see Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows! Because we were dismissed at 12:00pm, Grace and I got the chance to bus to Fairview Mall, get something to eat, browse around, and finally, watch the movie! Needless to say, I was really excited to see the movie. I'll tell you how it all went down in a second, but first...

Teacher Found!
By: Hannah Z

Today our teacher Mr. Arkin decided to grace us with his appearance again. It seems the Case of the Missing Teacher has been solved! After (not-so-) mysteriously disappearing last week, there wasn't a trace of the VP teacher to be found. However today, there is relief for he has been found safe and sound.

Acting as if nothing had happened, Mr. Arkin took up the Substrings assignments which his students had been working on all last week. Then, he continued on to teach the class about counted loops, otherwise known as for loops. The new keywords for and decreasing were also learnt. By the end of the class, most had forgotten about the disappearance, and everything seemed to go back to normal. Now, students will begin to treacherously prepare for both a possible substrings quiz and a second programing unit test. All paranormal activity seem to have ceased... for now.

Yes, so now you know what happened during class today. On to some Harry Potter! To tell you the truth, I don't really know what to say about the movie. There were some great parts, and also some not-so-nice ones. There were lots of parts from the book that were missing in the movie, and considering there are two movie parts to this last book, I expected a lot more details. However on the other hand, the acting was done pretty well, and there were some really funny moments. And some really nice moments, like the scene in Malfoy Manor. With Draco! ;)

So overall, I found the movie to be a little disappointing. It kind of killed the book, the way so many scenes were cut out and details excluded. However, the moments that were included were done pretty well. Still, my favourite HP movie remains the very first one. I rate this movie 3.4/5, but - needless to say - I will be there when part 2 comes out. Just to see whether or not they kill the ending. And for Draco, of course. :)
