Dad and I went to go see the premier for the movie "What to Expect When You're Expecting" today at the Starcité Montréal cinema theater because I had won a pair of tickets 

The cinema was located next to the Olympic Stadium, so we took a few pictures, I love the clouds 



It was an interesting humor filled movie, but I did find it lack substance and found there were quite a lot of plot holes. It was awesome to watch because the theater was packed full, so we were all laughing (since laughter is contagious), but it wouldn't be a movie that I would pay to see 

After the movie, dad saw a cardboard poster thing for "Dark Shadows" and excitedly wanted to have his picture taken 



DAD AND I SAW A LUKE AS WE WERE LEAVING THE METRO STATION! I saw a person with a bowler had who was carrying a musical instrument case in front of me and went: It's a Luke~

I was ecstatic to receive an e-mail from Pottermore saying that it was available to everyone now~

My username is: ScarletStone30118 [please leave me a comment if you plan to add me!!]

My wand is beech with dragon core, twelve and a half inches, reasonably supple 



The Sorting Hat placed me in the house of Slytherin and I burst out laughing~



I swear I wasn't even trying to get into that particular house and answered the questions honestly, so I burst out laughing when I landed in this house since my close friend said I would be in the house of Slytherin. Looks like she was right :3

The first Saturday in the month of May is considered as "Free Comic Book Day"~

It's an event where you get to go to your comic book store and pick up some free comics! Not only that, but many of the things inside the store is on sale at a discounted price 

I was amused that there were cosplayers at the event as well, they provided endless entertainment for the people who were waiting in line to get their comics. Thankfully, it wasn't a very hot day and it was quite breezy~


There was an incident where someone accidentally dropped their bags of French fries and then chaos ensued. Seagulls were circling around the food and some brave cosplayers tried to take them down... Unfortunately, there was no ammo in it... 


Dad was so cute and adorable when he wanted me to take a picture of him with the Stormtroopers from Star Wars 


My free comics that I got, there were some others that I had really wanted to get, but they were either out of stock and we were only limited to four comics each 

April is finally coming to a close and with it, my bus pass for the month will be expiring as well. Since the semester for university (at least for McGill University) I decided to abuse and go out as much as I possibly could with the little days left in the month. What better way to spend going to Downtown and Chinatown but to eat?

I went to two Korean restaurants with my friend within these past two weeks. I adore her, she's a friend that I met in one of my classes and I was thrilled to find out she was a Korean drama fan! We decided to meet up and go to a Korean restaurant to do BBQ like what they do in the dramas 

( First Restaurant: Chez Bong )

( Second Restaurant: Seoul Chako )

My younger brother didn't have school today, so we went Downtown to try some food at a really popular Japanese restaurant that people would line up and wait outside in the cold to eat at. Intrigued, we went to the restaurant called "Kazu" 

( Awesome Japanese Restaurant named Kazu )

Sadly, the last day of April will be on Monday and I'm hoping to go out again before being confined to the house and typing out that twelve page paper that I must force myself to finish before the second week in May 

I took a break from studying and went to see "The Hunger Games" movie with both Eric and Tessa today as it is Easter Monday in Canada and schools are closed~

Tessa even got me a present of a Tigger wearing a Easter Bunny suit



I absolutely love and adore Tigger because of his very happy and excitable demeanure



After watching the movie, we spent the rest of the time wandering about Downtown where the two of them ended up spending more money than I did on toys and accessories. The only thing I ended up purchasing (aside from food) was this Link figure from "The Phantom Hourglass"



On another note, I ended up throwing out my back again from all the excessive studying and sleeping in front of the computer across the keyboard... So they ended up laughing at me for being an old lady who was hobbling to and fro with them

Please be aware that it's most likely that I will be spamming your F-list with the pictures of ducks until they leave by late April to early May.

It won't be a daily post since I'll be heading into the month of doom, but it's likely I will post more frequently than I usually would 





I feel I should name these pair of ducks since they've been visiting every year for the past few years. The male can be identified by the blue patch on his wing, the female does not have this 

It's gotten to that point in the semester where I'm both physically and mentally tired thinking "Damn all this to hell!"

Next month will be the month of hell since it's the end of the semester and EVERYTHING is freaking due around the same time period 

( This is more of a ranting entry, so please ignore this... )

After this hellish doom and torture that I'll be going through, I'll be free from this sadist relationship I have with McGill University (until the fall) and do other things, such as:

. Finish fansubbing the joint Arashi videos that arashinorakuen has with ao_no_michi
. Clean my room. Remember THIS? Yeah, it's about 100X worse now.
. Pack for the week I'll be down in Texas with kaitousessha
. Catch up on all the dramas/tv series and mangas/manhwas 
. Read the novels that people gave me to read
. Subtitle additional videos for Victor
. Burn/transfer files on PC and HDD

Why aren't my ducks here yet?! I want to hear them quacking in our backyard!! Judging from the entries that I did from last year (01 02 03), they should be coming soon... Within the next week or so...

It's that time again! It's Mannequin Five Spring SP~



All their outfits this time around have flaws in them for me, which is centered around the bottom half of the outfits

I like one because of it's simplicity and elegance, but I do wish it was a little but more colorful. I also like two, but I disapprove of  the rolled up pants and the shoes. Three would have been passable, if he wasn't wearing that PINK outer jacket. Had it been a red jacket, I would have voted for three, hands down. The fourth one immediately evoked a "WTF?!" reaction out of me the moment I laid eyes on it. Five would have also gotten my vote too, if it wasn't for the rolled up pants and the shoes...

So by a process of elimination, I like the first one since there's really nothing at fault with it aside from the lack of color in his outfit (which the fourth one immediately makes up for)

In terms of who's wearing what... I have no idea... I've always got them wrong *fails*
1: Sho   2: Ohno   3: Jun   4: Nino   5: Aiba  [My money's going on 2 to win and 4 to lose]

EDIT: I ended up voting once more on the website but wrote in simple English sentences:

I went to the Montréal Museum of Fine Arts today as part of a class outing for my "Modern Chinese Art" class. It was awesome because we were able to visit the "think lab" (the lab where the museums restore paintings and is off limits to the public) and we were privileged to see two ink master paintings because my professor works at the museum~



The one on the left is done by Xu Beihong, titled as "Galloping Horse" and the one on the right is by Qi Baishi, with the simple title of "Shrimp". I must say the amount of detail cannot be properly conveyed through a photograph and must be seen in person to fully appreciate the simplicity yet beauty of the artwork the ink masters put into them

     

Unfortunately, I have another class right after the class outing, but I decided to go home because I would have only been able to make the last half hour of the lecture (when it's an hour and a half long class). When I got home, an envelope from "The Montrealer" was next to my computer desk. Apparently both dad and I won two pairs of tickets each to go see a 3D documentary on coral reefs at the Montréal Science Centre



The only downside was that the tickets were ONLY good for TODAY and the both of us only received the tickets TODAY (last minute much?) So we decided to bring the whole family and two of my friends in order to use up all eight tickets and it was so awesome!! You could practically touch the fish on the screen



Right in front of the science centre, there's this HUGE dinosaur that's there because there's currently a dinosaur exhibit going on. What amused all of us was that Tessa was the only one who didn't notice the dinosaur until we were leaving

I had way too much time on my hands and had to idle seven hours away on campus in order to attend an additional screening for my professor...

So I walked around the fifth floor in the McLennan library at McGill University to take some pictures because I was texting Hope and she wanted to see the snow (since she doesn't get snow)
