the four latest things i have bookmarked, all which deal with harry potter. only twelve more days, my friends. twelve more days.

harry potter in stick figures (very funny)

the ‘this will totally happen in deathly hallows, trufax’ meme

discussion on a quote from book six (makes my heart hurt every time)

“goodbye, harry” — from stephen king’s column in entertainment weekly (note the part when he mentions that kids that are now 18 grew up with harry potter, because that’s describing me to a tee right there)

my first day free (no exams until art of comm on thursday) was excellent. i got up leisurely at 9am and read all of harry potter and the half blood prince (book 6), save the 6 chapters i had read since last monday when i finished book 5. i was done well before i had to go to work at 2:30pm, and yes, i cried. a lot. maybe too much. i shouldn’t get this upset by a fictional story, right? i find myself having more and more dreams that involve the happenings in harry potter (and i certain secret i have which i’ve been thinking about a lot lately). this is not natural, is it?

i just realized that i don’t have a “fangirling” tag. that’s crazy.

i’ve started half blood prince and i’m finding that i can’t remember most of it (!) erlack, i better get going, i need to fit in two rereads before deathly hollows comes out.

carly had this brilliant idea of making shirts that are totally plain except for the word “PHYSICS” across the front. so i showed her the awesome t-shirt designer i found online (spreadshirt.com) and we made them, and they came today in the mail. totally awesome. i heart physics.

so yeah. saturday. i accomplished nothing, although i did pick up liz from sam’s house, and then i watched repo man and bleached my roots (hair cut slash dye job tomorrow!). after i watched ella enchanted, and of course i then had to read the book once again, because the movie has like no similarities except the character names. i finished the 232 page book in about three hours, so that managed to waste some time. this also lead me to read up on reading rate calculations, mine is about 580 words per minute. this makes sense, as i usually finish reading things before others. this is also why i believe that i can’t form coherent sentences sometimes, i think faster than i can talk.

oh yeah, happy st. patrick’s day!

JULY 21, 2007.

 
OMG.

the golden compass has been made into a film! i’m so excited, the series was my favorite when i was a kid. i think i’ll reread them this week. i haven’t done it since last summer, it’s time.

i was also going to post and say how glad i am that the office and steve carell won golden globes, but we was robbed! this picture slightly makes up for it, but not really.

words i overuse:

what about you?

i had a terrible dream last night that canada and mexico no longer existed. the united states had acquired them due to some strange clause in a nafta agreement, and the number of states doubled. while this was slightly upsetting because i love canada so much, the real reason it was a terrible dream was because i could no longer sing “fifty nifty united states,” changing my life forever.

ETA: OMG, JUST SAW THE PROMO FOR THIS WEEK’S EPISODE. KAREN ASKS JIM IF HE HAS FEELINGS FOR PAM. AND EVERYONE ELSE HAS MUSTACHES ON.

ETA 2: HERE IT IS.

OMFG. THE TITLE WAS RELEASED TODAY:

HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS.

(posting at school because it’s just that fantastic)

Hmm, what to say about camp. Well, you already know that I sprained my ankle. Other news? Not much. I demonstrated a tippy test, which is always a blast. I also took it with a counselor that was scared to do it, SWAT, who is a riot. (This was before the ankle accident.) On Thursday we went bowling. I bowled a 103, 96, 89, and 78, in that order. I always get worse the more I play. And on the day we came back to Rochester to go to the doctor, I bought a hundred bucks worth of books. My choices? Then He Ate My Boy Entrancers, Girls In Pants: The Third Summer of the Sisterhood, The Year Of Secret Assignments, and Thirsty. and Liz got The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time, which I have been meaning to read. Plus HPatHBP comes out July 16th!!!!
