maybe during the weekend, on my way to school, after school, or sometimes I read between classes...

Tickets booked. :]
No going back now, haha. xD

I'm dying to reread now, but I'm so clogged up with work that the only times I get to think are in the mornings and night time. And I just use the internet during those times. {rolleyes}
I'd rather reread when I have my expendable time to concentrate on them. Now I'm not entirely show when that is. Some time next month. :]

Oh and yep, the British version does mention about getting named after his dad and grandfather. You'll be surprised how many little bits and bobs each version gets that the other desn't. For example, the US versions get a line describing Dean Thomas' appearance in PS. We never got that. Sad, 'cause I always thought Dean was a cool guy.

Always found that very illuminating, would have loved to have seen it in the books.

Poor Dean ;__;
Awhh. I wanna hug him now. Seems like everyone in HP has either had a rough time or is going through one. Except in the epilogue xD

I had fun reading through the old rumous section.

Oh how I remember the Pillar of Storgé days. xD
Can you imagine Half-Blood Prince having a name like that? I wanted to cry when I first heard it.

I want a time machine, I really do. :'(

Is it nearly 2010 already?  {mellow}

In one month yes it will be.

I have to keep reminding myself of the good things to come.
I have this thing where, I'll think of the past, or read something from the past. Like today, I've been procrastinating all day really, been reading some old threads from 2002-2003 times. Threads that I read when I was like 9, 10 years old.

This one inparticular;

Seven years ago I read that thread and jumped about screaming like a little kid ['cause well, I was xD]. I remember hearing it on Newsround and evrything. And I just refound it today and I actually started crying and wishing I could go back so I still have books to look forward to. -_-

This is what the series ending does to a person. I wasn't like this until I finished book 7 and had nothing left to look forward to. I wish I'd have appreciated a little more that the series was still onoing when I could have. I officially have PPD. You have no idea. Sad

is just me or is that when I read a HP book, I don`t feel like watching the movie anymore?  {blink}
like I already read it and saw it in my head, why would I wanna see it?

Re: Harry Potter - Official Thread 2! - Cassie - 28-11-2009 10:39 PM

I like seeing the movies. They fail in comparison with the books, but they give you a more intricate insight into the HP world than my imagination can sometimes comprehend. Besides, if it weren't for the films I would not have my beloved real-life trio and HP cast that I love dearly. The films just authenticate the world even more.

I can watch the films over and over. I often have them in the background while I do work, when I get tired of listening to music but need the company of sound. I can't sit at the computer in silence.

Just watch Philosopher's Stone, then jump to Half-Blood Prince and just look at the difference. :]
I love them both for different reasons.
I love the early films, baby trio, a more lighthearted magical world. <3
And then the later films offer more dakrness, and a very hot trio. Minus Dan, who just went down fail road OotP onward. Bless him. Still love him though. Him and his eccentricity.
