Pottermania
Im a self-confessed harry potter fan.
Arrived home feeling great while grooving to Perfect 10 hits and all psyched up to complete a whole bunch of other school's prelim questions.
Spotted my copy of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" on the desk which came slipping out from my ah-lian bag (classmates should know). Dang. Even though the cover wasnt that fascinating. but thoughts came running through my mind again. though i've read it many times, i just cant resist the temptation. i wanna finish up the first book fast so i can move on to the rest. its just staring at me! it was staring at me!! Lord of the Rings was never THAT tempting.
Oh hell, what could it hurt to read just one chapter?
Harry's chosen as the Seeker of the Gryffindor team in the game of Quidditch against Slytherin. Professor McGonagall gave Harry the best broom ever. (they even have models) 'A Nimbus Two Thousand'. Harry was doing well in his training, and Wood was determined to clinch the Quidditch Cup this year. Screw maths, im hooked.
Read read read read, its 10.35pm and im at chapter 11, and still going strong.
*distant voices of all the teachers in the world* "Get your priorities straight Beishan!" Too late. Rowling's got me under her spell.
Spell of the Day:
Expecto Patronum
Useful spell to drive off Dementors, but extremely difficult to master. You have to think of an extremely happy thought with immense concentration, while uttering out the spell with much conviction. If successful, your Patronus would emerge and drive the Dementor at hand away. A Patronus differs among individuals: Harry's Patronus takes the form of a stag, in the representation of his father, who could turn into a stag when he was alive.
