The longest wait will (soon) be over

July 21, 2007

J.K. Rowling  just posted this on her official website:

Within hours you will know what happens to Harry, Ron, Hermione and the rest in their final adventure. All the secrets I have been carrying around for so long will be yours, too, and those who guessed correctly will be vindicated, and those who guessed wrongly will not, I hope, be too disappointed! As for me, I feel a heady mixture of excitement, nerves and relief. ‘Deathly Hallows’ remains my favourite of the series, even after several re-reads; I cannot wait to share it with the readers who have stuck with me through six previous books.

In a matter of 4 hours, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will be all over any bookstore in every english speaking country in the world—wow! Like any other normal fan, I can hardly wait! 

So you must know that this weekend, i'll be one of those weirdos who'd be locked up in the bedroom reading from chapter to chapter, squinting in enjoyment, until finish! I expect that I'd be occasionally yelled at because i haven't bathe or eaten but generally I won't be disturbed, I won't allow it ;) With my sister out of the country, i have the book to myself (until monday night anyway). When she arrives, it will be her turn to go gaga so i might as well finish it quick ;)

If only I didn't have an afternoon HTML class…  :( (why oh why do i have to workkk this muchhh) but that's that. You can still bet that when the clock hits 530, i'll be out of the school and moving towards home towards my room towards my new Harry Potter book.

Life's great.

Harry Potter is my Transformers

July 12, 2007

I have always liked the phrase "nothing short of amazing" - the first time i heard someone use it I knew it was going to be one of my favorite lines. I don't know, maybe because i'm the kind of person who tends to remember quotes/movie lines/lyrics however silly or seemingly ordinary they are. To be honest, i didn't know exactly what that phrase meant before, but when i finally did i found out that it was hard to mean. To describe something as nothing short of amazing in my blog or in real life is almost remotely impossible until 4 hours ago when I saw..

but don't take my post  for it, go, watch. :)

Spoilers Alert: Don't click on more if you hate spoilers as much as  i do. ;)
