Nine Year Old Miah

I had something really fantastic to blog about... like it was a really good idea. But I've totally forgot--- oh wait. Never mind I remember.
This isn't it I'm just gonna tell y'all about stuff. OK so for the past little while I've had an obnoxious cough... OK never mind this will get gross. What else? Oh yes, tomorrow is Camp Orientation. So basically I show up, get the staff manual, order my staff shirts, and say hi to all of my friends. I am really excited, but kinda nervous cause its the first time that I'm going with my brother (he's a newbie this year) and I dunno kinda weird. What else? Oh I'm visiting the good old high school tomorrow, I just wanna say hi to a couple of teachers and well one only teaches on certain days so tomorrow is the last chance I've got. I'm excited because the teachers I plan on saying hello to, I do weirdly miss. Which proves btw, that a subject is a subject, and it all matters on the teacher to make it amazing.
OK so like Rae said the other day we went to see Harry Potter and the Philosopher Stone on Monday, and it got me thinking about where I was 10 years ago. And well firstly I was nine and that's a huge difference between nine and nineteen. But at this time I was living in New York, and the world was prior 9/11. So even that is a huge change in myself and the world. But then I think about when the movie was released, November 2001. After 9/11 and as a child I'm pretty sure that was the moment (9/11) that I lost the whole "the world is a magical place" feel, which I'm sure happened to many children who could remotely grasp the concept of terror. And yet Harry Potter was released to record breaking numbers if I'm not mistaken being the number 2 movie of all time after Titanic (currently number 8 movie of all time.) But for me I missed out on seeing the first film because I heard one kid say they "wanted to read the books first" and I liked that idea. Instead I saw a guy commit suicide. Another loss of a "magical world," but yet we all fell into the world of Harry Potter, I watched the movie for the first time at home I believe June/July 2002 and from that moment on I was hooked. I guess the way in which I can sum up 9 year old me, was my maturity level, because after 9/11 I organized that my Toronto class would be pen-pals with my New York class, because I knew they needed love.
Anyway time for a segway!
As REL know I've been doing an Oscar Marathon, in which I try to watch every film that has ever won and Oscar for Best Picture. So you think this would make me somewhat of a movie buff, but I've come to realize that I don't really pay that much attention to details of film. Or rather I pay attention to costume and set... like I analyze those things (don't get me started on costume design for avatar!) I dunno if I enjoy a movie I get entranced. I enjoy it, and I just watch. Were as if I don't enjoy the movie I analyze it. Make sense? Basically I get sucked into the experience of watching a film, television show, and theatre. So as far as the best actor ever... I mean besides Theatre/ Musical Theatre actors (especially Musical Theatre, you try being able to sing, dance and act!) I'd have to go with Meryl Streep. She's such a camelion (sp?) that its actually ridiculous! I mean have you seen the Devil Wears Prada, Mamma Mia, Julie and Julia? I mean this woman has been nominated for an Oscar 16 times! So yeah Meryl Streep. My choice.
OK seeing as its 11:57 I think it about time to wrap this mother up! (whats that from?)

P.S. I watched an American in Paris last night and two things slightly blew my mind firstly her dancing and flexibility. Second the whistling (1:44ish mark) cause I've heard that like a gazillion times!!!
P.P.S 45 DAYS UNTIL THE END!!!! :(
