I am currently in the middle of chapter four of Harry Potter and the Death Hallows, and I’m at the computer to post on my blog? Why you ask? When I have such a gripping book to read?
For some reason I put on the NOIR blanc dans NOIR album from Noir by Kajiura Yuki and for some weird reason the first song on shuffle was ‘love’ by See-saw. It was such a sad song and I just couldn’t keep on reading HP7 because I was so afraid Harry would die. I guess I just didn’t want it to end that way. So I’ve holding out as long as I can before going back to the book. Which is stupid, because that’s exactly how I got the cruel spoilers about the Half-Blood Prince last time. But still, the music is making me even more sentimental than usual…
So, onto other issues. Let’s share a photograph.
Seeing double? If so, read on.
My uncle called me last night and we talked about the latest Harry Potter movie in Chinese. And he told me he ordered me a copy of the new Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. I was shocked, because I had already ordered a copy for myself. So, when I said I’ll send it back to his address, he said he’ll just go out and buy it tomorrow. So now I’m stuck with an extra copy of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. I have a couple of ideas what to do with it. Here they are:
1. Return my original copy to Amazon. Get money back and buy some textbooks for next year.
2. Give it to a friend who needs it.
3. Donate it to the library.
4. Keep it.
Choice #4 is definitely out of the question; I would just feel extremely guilty and un-deserving. But choice #1 probably is the most reasonable choice. At least I’m using his money correctly now. I’ve always used his Christmas money on Amazon to buy stuff that I don’t really need, ie. manga. So maybe I’ll use it to its advantage.
Let’s digress from Potter mania.
I started reading this lullaby again the day before yesterday, and I just had to stop because of the new book I got today. I’ve been wanting to write about this ever since I got back from Misaki’s house less than a week ago. So while I read this lullaby again, I realized just how much impact Dexter had on Remy, and how much she changed by meeting him. I feel that now that I’ve gone back and read stuff for the 2nd or maybe even the third time I feel like I can appreciate it more. It happened while at Misaki’s too. It was the 4th time I’ve seen Nobuta. wo Produce with someone else. The first time was with Phil, the second time was with my cousin back in China, the third time was with Amy and the latest time was with Misaki. Every time I notice just in which places the actress of Aoi was. And I also remember what parts each one find funny, what parts that they thought was weird and amusing, which parts they were confused about and how I had to explain it. Just this last time, I realized how Shuji, Akira and Nobuta were a lot like Harry, Ron and Hermione respectfully. Except the fact that Ron got the girl and Akira didn’t. Okay, I feel that I’ve begun rambling and not much of this post makes sense… Sorry.
Last thing before I go back to reading. I found a line very interesting while I was reading this lullaby. On page 175, halfway down, the line was the first line of the paragraph. It said, “It was July 15.” And so, I found this really funny and coincidental. Hehe.

I must say that the first few hundred pages were pretty depressing, but then it gets less and less depressing.
