Movie: Barbie and the Magic of Pegasus


















The Pegasus is actually her sister, not expected it. Love the ending where all the spells have been broken.
They can skate really well and it was very nice to see them skating together.

Drawing: Emma Watson


































The second vector drawing for today, this time Emma Watson, the cute looking actress from Harry Potter movies! :) Well, this time I've put gradient for the hair and keeping it simple. I like to draw with Photoshop, tomorrow I will start with school, so no time for this kind of fun stuff.

Drawing: Angelina Jolie


































This time it's not a Disney figure, but a human. I've chosen for the beautiful Angelina Jolie. The hair is very difficult to make, so it's not really successful.

Movie: Barbie Fairytopia: Magic of the Rainbow

















This movie is okay, not very nice. There is not much adventure.

Ratings Barbie movies

I've watched many Barbie movies and I think it's time to rate them, I have not seen all Barbie movies, but I have seen enough to rate.
















Barbie and the 12 dancing princesses: 5/5
I love this one so much! The plot is very good written.


Barbie and the Diamond Castle: 4/5
The journey is interesting and the dogs are cute.

Barbie and the Three Musketeers: 3/5

Barbie as the Island Princess:  2/5
I don't really like this one, they sing too much I think. The plot is so-so.

Barbie in a Christmas Carol Movie: 5/5
I love this one very much, even though the plot is not unique (it's adapted from Charles Dickens). It's something new to me, because I did not know about the story of the three fairies.

Barbie in a Mermaid Tale: 3/5

Barbie Mariposa: 4/5
I love the adventure they undergone.

Barbie Thumbelina: 3/5
This movie is not of a grown up Barbie, but the baby Thumbelina.

Movie: Barbie and the 12 Dancing Princesses


















This movie is really interesting! The remorseless cousin of the King wants to become queen, making the King sick. She is very smart getting the flower which fulfills her wishes, so it can protects her.
The dance Genevieve with Derek together was so romantic! :) The funny part was the counter spell which made the cousin dancing haha, very hilarious, "Let go of me!" haha! The healing water is also wonderful and Lazy is very smart of getting some. They didn't explain what happens to the cousin, I mean she is still officially the queen. Of course I love the happy ending, Genevieve marries Derek whom is not a prince. :)

Movie: The Legend of Secret Pass


















I like this movie, the lamb in there is so cute, its eyes are so beautiful and exciting looking. She is also very happy and that makes it even more cute. It's so wonderful they can turn into birds. :)
I love the happy ending. The ending is also the beginning of the movie, that is quite funny to see how the bird with the lizard on its back is flying.

donderdag 26 augustus 2010

Movie: Over the Hedge


















I love this movie, the animals are so nice and they collaborate to steal food, funny is that they actually steal junk food from human. Oh and if this was in 3D it would be even better, since there are many action scenes.

woensdag 25 augustus 2010

Movie: Barbie as the Island Princess


















I don't really like this one, they sing too much.
Queen Ariana is very mean, so mean that she uses evil tricks to get rid of Ro.
The ending is of course a happy one.

Movie: Space Chimps


















The defeat of the dictator Zartog was quite easy, I have expected more.
I also love the teasing between Luna and Ham they are quite a cute couple. :)

dinsdag 24 augustus 2010

Movie: Barbie in a Mermaid Tale


















I love this movie. :D Her hair with pink highlights looks quite good and it's wonderful that she is able to change into human or mermaid whenever she wants, that's really a smart solution.
I think I will watch some more Barbie movies, as they talk very clear English.

Movie: Mickey's Twice Upon a Christmas


















Short stories, instead of a long adventure, which I rather want to see.
But it's nice, it's all about christmas.

maandag 23 augustus 2010

Movie: Meet the Robinsons


















This movie is okay, funny that he is able to see his own future. The animation is good and the adventure is also nice.
The memory scanner is a really good invention, after wearing it and telling the events, it will be shown on the screen, how nice!

Book: Beautiful Approach






















I'm currently writing a book, the name is called "Beautiful Approach". Here is the synopsis:
This story is about the life of a very beautiful lady, named Magnifia Mason. She is way too beautiful, but her life on the contrary is not too beautiful... being beautiful is not everything. Her love life is complicated, she meets different men in her life. Because she is so perfectly beautiful she can choose between men, but later it turns out she has no choice in her love life, she can’t choose. She is willing to sacrifice her love to save people, to turn bad into good within her reach.


Here a longer synopsis:

Magnfia has to face the envy looks of girls and she has to ignore the staring looks of boys. Whenever she is in public, people turns around to look at her. She is able to stop men from walking only by looking at them. She got used to this attention, when she was younger, she has not experienced this, the older she grows up, the more attention she gets. She does not need to do anything to attract people’s attention, especially men’s.

She has really good friends and she works part-time as a model earning money easily. Finding true love is not easy for her, not that she has no choice, on the contrary she has too much choices. Magnifia has a boyfriend, a very handsome one, but she sometimes is wondering if he is the right guy for her. At the same time she meets another guy, a police officer, this one is less handsome, but she feels attracted to him not because of his looks but his behavior. Has she find her true love?

Well, we can’t tell, because she has been captured by a big boss who is involved with criminal activities. He is a very rich man, possessing many houses and money. This man comes into her love life as she has to use her natural born weapon: her beauty. With her immense beauty she changes bad to good, she sacrifices her love to save lots of innocent people.

Drawing: Snow White



































What do you think of this drawing? Yeah it's Snow White.

vrijdag 20 augustus 2010

Drawing: Tinker Bell























What do you think of this drawing? I've used Photoshop to draw this Tinker Bell. The details are left out, only the base shape. Who shall I draw next, maybe Snow White, Cinderella or ...?

Movie: Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure


















The first one I have seen and this is the second one. I love her collaboration with Terence, they are good friends. I didn't know Tinker Bell can be angry that easily lol. I'm wondering why she appears at Peter Pan's story? Has she any relation with him? I need to watch Peter Pan, maybe I have watched when I was young but I can't remember...

Movie: Vampires Suck


















I was really looking forward for this movie because of the trailer. It is supposed to be a comedy version of Twilight, after watching Eclipse (third installment of Twilight) I thought it would be nice to watch this one, a funny, less serious comedy about Twilight, even Alice (the girl from Wonderland) is in it and Lady Gaga, it should be very funny I thought...
Well when watching the first 10 minutes I already have jumped to the conclusion this is a bad movie, the comedy in it is not funny at all, more exaggeration which is not funny to me: it sucks. Yeah, the movie sucks!
Bella is popular amongst the boys at school in Twilight, well in this movie she has been bullied by other students at the first day school... and a greeting from Eric was a punch in the face...is that supposed to be funny? No not at all! Maybe it's me, I don't like this parody. I'm happy not to waste money to buy a ticket to watch this in cinema.

Oh and guess what? I've not finished this movie (I stopped after watching 30 minutes).

Movie: Twilight: Eclipse


















This is the third installment of Twilight and I think it's the best Twilight movie so far. There are many romantic scenes (kissing scenes of Bella and Edward and others) and action scenes, I like when they started working together (the vampires and the wolves) to protect Bella and to fight against the new borns (vampires).

Oh and this movie is not boring at all, there are many different, interesting scenes. At times I think it was funny to see both boys fighting over the girl and to see how they envy each other. The fight with the new borns was intense but good and the fight with Victoria and Edward was intense too, Bella saved Edward by bleeding herself and finally Victoria died!

I enjoy this movie as a fantasy story and not based on reality, Bella has no ambitions and is involved in love between two boys whom are actually not humans. Also I think it is very tiring to be Bella, she loves Edward but she is also afraid Jacob does not like it... she wants both parties to be satisfied... that is impossible.. my gosh, unless she marries both guys... >.< hell no! This is such a complicated love triangle...
I can't wait for the next movie, the last one.

Shrek The Third


















I love this third movie too! I am happy to know that they have another fourth movie (Shrek Forever After), and the babies at the end are so cute! There are many action scenes and the story is very nice. I love to see the fairy tales figures. I think it was funny when the cat looked cute and then started fighting.

donderdag 19 augustus 2010

Movie: Shrek 2



















This movie is also nice, less sadness, but more funny. Especially the scene where the donkey clicked with his mouth, making Shrek and Fiona angry haha, that was just hilarious. I also like the scene where they said: "fine place to raise the children" and Shrek and Fiona's father both coughing hahaha.

The plot is very interesting, there are so many things happening. They turned into humans after drinking the potion and they met the cute cat with hat. As compared to Shrek 1 I think this one is more interesting. The songs they use are also very nice.

I can't wait to watch Shrek the Third which I will watch next. :)

Movie: Shrek


















I have never decided to watch Shrek, because that ogre monster does not look nice. But finally I decided to watch because it's a very popular animated movie. So I started watching the trailer and I love it, especially because I saw fairy tales figures like Pinocchio, wolf, snow white etc. which are great! It must be special to see them in this movie.

The story is really nice and I will watch all the other Shrek movies too! This animation movie is different than other animations. It contains some sadness and they played the soundtrack Halleluja. I really love it! The story is nice and unique, I have not seen something that resembles this.

I think if Fiona kissed the prince, she will turn into human princess again, but she kissed an ogre so that resulted her into an ogress.

UML: association, aggregation, composition

I have studied about these three relationships and I think I fully understand them now.

We can say an association is a relationship between two objects. An aggregation is a specialized form of association and a composition is a specialized form of aggregation. So we can say both aggregation and composition is an association:


















Some more information about the relationships, then I will show you how I determine what relationship objects have.

Association:
One relationship between objects
Objects have their own life cycle
No ownership

Aggregation (has-a, hollow diamond):
Objects have their own life cycle
Has ownership (child object cannot belong to another parent object)

Composition (part-of, filled diamond):
Objects has life time dependency, no own life cycle
Has ownership (child object cannot belong to another parent object)

How to determine what relationship objects have? I've figured it out through asking questions, so I have invented this diagram which maybe can help you:

















 Here is the explanation for this diagram:


1. Is it a part of …? Does it need this part to have a whole, complete thing?
E.g. an engine is a part of a car, because a car without an engine is not complete. This is the same for book and page, computer and hard disk and order and order line.

 This is not applicable for farm and farmer; we know without a farmer the farm will cease as nobody take care for the animals, grains etc… so maybe this will make you think a farmer is a part of a farm, but it is not! A farm is an area of land in which food is produced and managed, that's it, there is no need to think more complicated. This means a farm can exists without having a farmer, the same is a farmer can exists even there is no farm.

2. Is there ownership? Does it belong to…?
E.g. a movie has a review, a review belongs to a movie, and it does not belong to any other movie. The same can be applied to farm and farmer, as a farmer has a farm and the farm belongs to that farmer and not to other farmers. Both can exist without each other.

3. An association
E.g. a student and a course is an association. A student has a course, but a course does not belong to a student. Another example, a person and a project, a person has a project but a project does not belong to a person (unless it's a 1 person project with no other persons involved).



Hopefully you now understand how to determine the relationships. Let's do some exercises, since theory should be put in practice in order to learn:

1. Body and arm = ?
2. Department and teacher?
3. Teacher and student?
4. Project and project leader = ?
5. Order and orderline = ?
6. School and student = ?
7. Customer and order = ?
8. Project and student = ?

Answers (highlight to read)
1. Composition
2. Aggregation
3. Association
4. Composition
5. Composition
6. Aggregation
7. Aggregation
8. Aggregation

Music: Lady Gaga


















I love her music. Usually when a singer has released an album one or two songs will be a big hit (some even don't have a hit at all..), and maybe the third or fourth being popular but not really a hit. But for Lady Gaga it's a different, almost all of her songs are hits. :) That's why I like her music, in her album, around half of her album songs are a big hit, that is really good.

Her voice is very clear and she is able to change her voice when singing different songs. Her songs are pop music which is my favorite type of music. As she writes her own lyrics and play the piano which makes her even more talented. Maybe she is not the prettiest, but her appearance makes her outstanding from other artistes.

Okay, let me sum up the songs I like:
  1. Pokerface
  2. Just Dance
  3. Love Game
  4. Papparazzi
  5. Eh, eh, nothing else I can say
  6. Boys Boys Boys
  7. Starstruck
  8. Fashion
  9. Bad Romance
  10. Alejandro
  11. Telephone

These songs come from the albums, The Fame and The Fame Monster, except for Fashion (soundtrack).

Movie: The Tale of Despereaux


















Oh this is such a beautiful story, I love the ending. All the people having soup again and nobody abandon the mice and rats. They all have been forgiven.
Despereaux is such a cute mouse and a big hero too.

Movie: A Cinderella Story


















I love this movie very much. It's a modern Cinderella story. As Cinderella left a shoe, this Cinderella left her mobile phone. These kind of romantic stories I like to watch beside fantasy, adventure, comedy genres. Maybe I will watch more romantic movies...
The story is not simple, they can't be together without bearing difficulties. The part where they humiliating her was so sad. I'm happy they can be together finally, I love this story!

Movie: Shrek the Halls


















A short movie, about 20 minutes, which was broadcasted on television, a special movie during Christmas.
The kids are so cute.

Movie: Memoirs of a Geisha


















Oh this story is so touching and sad, I really pity that young girl Chiyo, who is sold into slavery by her family. She then turned into a geisha (a woman entertaining men with their talents like singing, make music, dancing, "we are not wives, we sell our skills and not our bodies"). From all the movies I have seen this month, this one is the most touching one, maybe because of the Chinese actresses, it's a first American movie about Oriental things, so that must make me feel it's special.

What I think is funny is they actually use Chinese actresses to act in this movie about Japanese geishas.
Also I think it's a mistake that Gong Li has not aged at all, she should be, because when Chiyo was a child she also looked the same... Their English is decent, not really good, they for example pronounced a child as "chilled". Oh and the little child acted as the young girl Chiyo does look like Zhang Zi Yi, so it's easy to see it's her grown up. Zhang Zi Yi, Gong Li and Michelle Yeoh all look beautiful, even without make-up they look good! I don't like all that make-up: white face, red lips and wigs. Without make-up they look more human, natural, which I prefer.

Mameha is such a nice woman, she is really beautiful and to me she looks a little like Maggie Cheung Ho Yee (張可頤). She is nice to Chiyo and teached her how to become a real geisha. Hatsumomo is such a mean evil bitch. I really hate her, she deserves punishment. I love the ending where Chiyo finds her real love, someone she loves years ago. The whole story is so sad.

Everyone should see this, especially asian people.

Movie: Nanny McPhee and the Big Bang


















Like the first movie I like this one too. Nanny McPhee is so cool. I'm wishing there will be a third movie of Nanny McPhee with different children.
The same is her working method, when you need me but do not want me I must stay and when you want me but no longer need me I have to go. Also the change from her hideous face to beautiful face is the same and of course the magic she uses with her stick.
So nice that all of them have a medal, and the ending was just nice! Their father returned which is a good thing, now their family is complete and Nanny Mcphee has a beautiful face again, 5 lessons completed. ;)

Movie: Kung Fu Panda


















I really love this movie! It would be even more interesting to watch it in 3D! There are so many action/fighting scenes, it's so exciting to see. I love how the plot is written, very good plot and good asian background music.
At the end Po (panda) defeated Tai Lung (bad tiger) which was great, he used the tricks Shi Fu (master) had learned him. Po also found out the Finger Hold and used that on Tai Lung.
No matter what you are, as long as you believe in it you can do it. Oh and I'm happy that Shi Fu didn't die at the end if he did that would be tragic but since it's a comedy he has not. :)

Movie: Barbie and the Diamond Castle


















I like this movie haha, yeah I'm too old for Barbie actually extremely old, I watch this not because I like barbie, but I like the animation, I love animation movies not matter what kind. Also their voices are very clear and they speak standard English, so it's good for my English listening, the more I hear English the better. I've watched a few Barbie movies.
The story is also nice, they sing a lot in this movie, just like a musical. I believe children love this.

Movie: Nanny McPhee


















Oh I just love this movie! It's something new and refreshing to me. I like these kind of stories. I like it when she slowly changes into beautiful. She uses her magic to teach the children, which is wonderful and efficient!
I love the final scene at the end while having a snowy wedding and Nanny McPhee has fully turned into beautiful. Her face is much better looking!
"When you need me but not want me I must stay" and "When you want me but no longer need me then I had to go", I just love her working method!

This movie is really a good family movie and everyone should watch this! I will watch the sequel too, I hope it's as good as this one!

Movie: Tinker Bell


















Now I finally know what Tinker Bell means, I thought "Tinker Bell" is a whole name. I found out during watching that her name is Bell and that the word Tinker means a person who enjoys fixing machines and their parts. So the word Tinker is not a name but a noun.
I enjoy this movie. "Be proud of your talent" that is a really good quote in this movie. It's not an adventurous movie but I still enjoy it.

zondag 15 augustus 2010

Movie: The Incredibles


















This animation movie is quite long, almost 2 hour. I think when watching this in 3D it will be really amazing, there are so many action scenes! Oh I love it when the whole family collaborated to defeat "Syndrome", so many action scenes it is so nice and exciting!
I think it was very funny when their son run the marathon and not to be first or third but second haha, so he got silver ;) How I wish I can see this one in 3D!

Movie: Bolt


















Oh I wish to see this one in 3D, must be really exciting since there are many action scenes. I quite like this movie, the dog is so cute! The dog is so brave to save Penny at the end during the fire. The cat is really smart knowing he has no super powers and that he was acting in Hollywood. Finally the dog realizes that as well.

Movie: Twilight: New Moon


















Oh this movie is so slow at the beginning, it's so weak to see her suffering herself in order to see Edward Cullen. She has to forget him, I mean go on with life... maybe that is easy to said than done. It's so scary and annoying to see her screaming while sleeping...
Jacob looks really good with short hair, long hair does not suit him and makes him not modern. His body is also perfect.
Bella is so weak, she killed herself, I would never do that. Her role is so weak, really suffering for love, what the hell!? Okay, I only watch this because Twilight is a popular series, the plot is not strong at all and I can't feel like Bella feels.

zaterdag 14 augustus 2010

Movie: Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince


















This is the sixth installment already. This one is more about love than the previous movies. Harry started to have feelings for Ginny and Ginny the same for Harry! The same for Hermione with Ron. It's so hilarious to see the scene Ron was in love because of a love potion, his gaze was dreamy and happy, and when he said: "hello darling" and embraced professor Slughorn it was so laughable (he was definitely in love!)
It was so sad Dumbledore died, really sad, although they didn't cry out loud but it was already sad to me when they all raised their wands, so touching!
I personally think this movie is too long (02:26), some scenes are so slow... I think this one is the worst of
all the Harry Potter movies, I don't feel exciting when watching this. Now I can't wait for Harry Potter 7 the last one.

vrijdag 13 augustus 2010

Movie: Bedtime Stories


















This one of Disney is really nice to watch, I thought that it's something like Inkheart when stories come true, but it's different, that one is more adventurous and this one more of a comedy.
Oh I recognize "Uncle Vernon" from Harry Potter movies, he is acting in this one.
I love the ending, and it's a happy ending, I'm happy he and Jill ended up together.

Movie: The Secret of Moonacre


















The poster looks really good, that has attracted me to watch in the first place, also the trailer. The movie is okay, not really superb good. I wouldn't re-watch this one. The story is about returning the pearls to the moon in order to remove the curse for both families, so it's a happy ending at all.
Although there were fantasy creatures, but I don't think it's a really good fantasy story.

Movie: Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix


















This is the fifth movie already. Umbridge is so mean, but I think the actress who acted as Umbridge does not suit this role, since she does not look mean at all, her face is very kind looking just like Ron's mother. I love how she talks, her English is really good, I mean her English is very clear spoken.
So sad Sirius died, the death eaters are really mean using the death curse. Dumbledore's army won't use a death curse at all! Finally Cornelius Fudge saw Lord Voldemort, if it's not the case he still won't believe about the return.

donderdag 12 augustus 2010

Movie: Horton Hears a Who!


















Indeed "hears" as they are so tiny that it is not possible to be seen. This elephant Horton has saved the Who village while risking his life. I watched this movie because it's an animated movie.
The "who" reminds me of a character I have seen before, some character from Disney maybe? I thought there was a character with a hat and its face is like the the Who's, I can't remember the name... well.. maybe some day?

PHP programming: Financial Management System


















Finally finished and published today after several weeks for making this one, yeah I have lost some motivation during the process. But I finally urged myself to continue with it and to finish it before school starts! This PHP script is a web application for keeping track of your spendings and receivings. Statistics are shown in colorful pie charts, the colors you can choose it by yourself.

Want to try? That is possible. Just register an account and log in and start adding objects.

The link to this financial management system is: http://ycscripts.co.cc/scripts/financial-management-system/

Movie: Inkheart


















This movie is about Mo reading out loud and things really happening, his daughter is also a "silver tongue", which means she also have that power.
I love it, it's really cool to see how they went back into the book to save the mother. It's really exciting to see them risking their lives. I can't believe the writer of the books wants to get into Inkheart story... I wouldn't if I were him. That means fantasy is more beautiful than the reality and he wants to be in his fantasy.

Movie: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire


















I love this movie very much! From all the previous Harry Potter movies this one is the best, because it has non-stop adventure. From the previous movies it was only at the end of the movie when something big happened. But this movie has adventure from the beginning to the end.
Hermione is so beautiful and cute looking at the prom. It was a surprise to see Robert Parkinson (Edward Cullen from Twilight movies) as Cedric, a cameo role.
I just love this movie so much, so much happening. Oh by the way in the movie Dobby was not there but he was in the book, I'm sure about it. He gave Harry Potter the gillyweed and  not Neville as in the movie.

woensdag 11 augustus 2010

Movie: The Witches



















Yes this is another child's movie, but I love it, I watched it when I was young. But now I re-watched it again and I love it! Especially the happy ending, that there is a good witch turning them back into children.
Very surprised to see Rowan Atkinson (Mr Bean) in this movie, I have forgotten that he acted in this movie. So they (normal people) all know that they were witches?

Movie: Matilda



















Yes I know it's a children movie, but well, I watched it because of learning English, and they speak very clearly English here, good for me to listen ;) I like this movie, because when I was a kid myself I have watched this one and it's a very good one! She is a very smart girl, but having such power to move things makes it more interesting.
I'm wondering where the headmistress had gone, and what happened to the school, will miss Honey take the position of headmistress, and where are the other teachers?
After all a very entertaining movie, and I believe this movie every child should watch and I believe they will love it!

Movie: Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban



















The third installment of Harry Potter series. This one is clearly different than the first two movies. They did not wear robes at all, so they did not look like students. Also professor Dumbledore is a different person, I recognized this one's voice is less lower. Hermione's hair is here not the same as in the first two movies. So definitely a different producer for this movie!

I like the adventure at the end where Hermione and Harry saved both Buckbeak and Sirius Black. The 2nd installment it was Harry and Ron in action, this time Harry and Hermione. Hermione's special clock is just a brilliant thing, really! I'm wondering why they won't make use of it in the later installments, especially when Sirius died in book 5, why not turn back the time so that Harry can save him and he will be alive?

I think the focus is less on school but more about other things.

Movie: A Christmas Carol


















This is the worst animation movie I have seen. It's not that the graphics are bad, it is the language. I barely can understand what they were talking, especially Scrooges, he's like muttering to himself when he is talking, it's not really clear. So because I can't understand what they were saying, I can only watch the movie. If I haven't read the plot at Wikipedia, I certainly won't understand.

I have seen this story adaption before, that was the movie: Barbie in a Christmas Carol and that one is much better than this one, more colorful and bright and they speak very clearly and I understand all what they said.

dinsdag 10 augustus 2010

Movie: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets


















This is the second movie, I like this movie. Lots of things are happening.
I don't like Dobby at the beginning, he could have killed Harry, well maybe heavy injured...

It's strange to see the father of Draco is there while they were playing the Quidditch match, isn't he supposed to be at work and not at Hogwarts at all? He's there to support his son of course, since it's his first match.

What weird is, why Hermione not fixed Ron's wand, like she did with Harry's glasses? Or wands can't be fixed at all?

Ron's voice was so funny (also facial expressions) when he was afraid, his voice like squeaking.

I love the adventure at the end, Tom Riddle is quite handsome, so Lord Voldemort was a handsome, smart guy back then, well, it's a pity he went to the wrong path. It's ironical to know that Voldermort's father is actually a non-magic person and he hated non-magic people, so hating own father, right?
It was not touching at all when the Phoenix teared at Harry's wound to heal it, I remember when I was reading the book, I cried because of that scene, it was so touching, because it described how Harry slowly died, and the the phoenix was crying for Harry as well.

It's so nicely said that it is not your abilities to place you to the right house, it's the choice what matters. So Harry choose the right path, and therefore placed in Gryffindor.

Why Hermione not hug Ron haha, they looked embarrassed. That hints us they will fall in love together, as Hermione and Harry are friends and don't mind hugging. ;)
