December 10

December 10.

Det her indlæg blev ikke skrevet lørdag den 10 december, har dog en god grund. Jeg var simpelthen optaget hele lørdag med en Harry Potter maraton. Men til gengæld for i nu glæden af at læse om min maraton. Den startede lørdag morgen ved Alessia, den italienske udvekslingsstudent. Da nogle af de deltagene (alle drengene) var forsinkede valgt vi at vente til kl 10 med at starte filmene Det var då også hyggeligt bare at snakke og køre klar til det hele, der var så meget slik, chips, is og sodavand. Vi startede fra kl 9 med at spise slik.

Lidt info om filmen, og hvad det kræver at have en maraton med dem alle. Jeg tror de fleste ved der er 8 film i Harry Potter Serien.

1)   Harry Potter og de vises sten

2)   Harry Potter og hemmelighedernes kammer

3)   Harry Potter og fangen fra Azkaban

4)   Harry Potter og flammernes pokal

5)   Harry Potter og Fønixordenen

6)   Harry Potter og halvblodsprinsen

7)   Harry Potter og dødsregalierne – del 1

8)   Harry Potter og dødsregalierne  – del 2

Disse 8 film tager til sammen 1,178 minutter, eller næsten 20 timer. Det er er 20 timer uden pauser eller noget. Så da vi første starte kl 10 ville vi først have været færdig kl 6 om morgen. Men efter kun 2 film blev vi alle rastløse og besluttede at efter hver anden film skulle vi have en Just Dance ( Wii Spil ) pause. Så vi kan vist sagtens sige at vi ikke så alle film i en køre uden at falde i søvn. Alle var stort set vågne til og med nummer 6, men da 7 blev sat på faldt vi alle i søvn. Kl var omkring 4 da jeg faldt i søvn. Er ikke helt sikker på hvornår jeg vågne igen måske kl 7 fjernsynet var stadig tændt skærme var dog blevet helt blå.

Vi var fast besluttede på at se alle filmene ellers ville vores maraton jo være mislykket så vi så de 2 sidste film om morgen. Der blev ikke snakket nær så meget som om aftenen. Nogle af os kæmpe for ikke at fald i søvn igen. Vores Harry Potter maraton var afslutte kl 13. Da jeg kom jeg gik jeg direkte i seng med intentioner om at stå op kl 15 så jeg kunne se noget amerikansk fodbold i fjeren. Vågnede dog først kl 17.30, hvad mon det skete med min alarm?

Er godt træt og kommer nok til at mærke det hele ugen, og næste weekend skal jeg tilbringe i selskab med de andre Rotary udvekslingsstudenter hvilket betyder endnu en weekend uden en masse af det de kalder søvn.

Har en snak på hjerne fra Just Dance som ikke lige frem passer til højtiden men den skal nok blive nynnet en del de næste dage.

Have en fantastisk december dag.

This post was not written Saturday December 10th. However I do have a good reason for this. All of Saturday I was occupied having a Harry Potter Marathon!  On the bright side you now get to read about this wonderful marathon. I think that is another of those win-win situations. I get to have a bunch of fun and you get to read about it. This movie marathon started Saturday at 9 am, it was held at Alessia’s (the Italian exchange student from my school) house. As some of the people participating were running late (all of the boys) we ended up deciding not to start the movie before 10 am so they could be with us form the beginning. However it was fun setting everything up and talking before we started the movie. There was so much junk food you wouldn’t even believe me if I told you and we of course started

 eating/drinking this at 9 am.

Little info about the movies and what kinda of time commitment it is to have a marathon with them. As I think most people know there are 8 movies in the Harry Potter Series.

1)   Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone

2)   Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

3)   Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

4)   Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.

5)   Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

6)   Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

7)   Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1

8)   Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 2

All of these movies combined takes 1,178 minutes to watch, almost 20 hours. That is a 20 hours with no breaks or anything like that. So as we didn’t start until 10 am we would have finished all the movies by 6 am. However after only 2 movies we all became restless and decided that we after every 2^nd movie would have a Just Dance (Wii game) break. So it is safe to say that we didn’t watch all the movies in one go without falling asleep.  We all pretty much made it though number 6, but when 7 started we all pretty much fell asleep. It was about 4 am when I fell asleep. I am not 100% sure when I woke up, but I think it was around 7 or 8, the television was still one however the screen was all blue.

We were very determined to finish what we started, so it was decided that the last 2 movies had to be seen or else our whole marathon would have been wasted.  The amount of words that were spoken during those movies weren’t near half of those the night before. Some of us were just fighting not to fall asleep. Out Harry Potter marathon finally ended at 1 pm. When I came home I went straight to bed in the hope of waking up for some football at 3 pm. Didn’t wake up until 5.30 pm wonder what happened to my alarm?

I am still pretty tired and I think I will be able to feel the aftermath of this marathon all week. Next weekend I am spending in the wonderful company of the other rotary exchange students in my district, this of course means another weekend without a whole lot of that thing called sleep.

I currently have a song stuck in my head from Just Dance, it is not exactly suitable for the holiday but I am sure it will stay around for the next couple of days.

Have a fantastic December day.
