Dissapointed.

I am very HAPPY to say that I have finished reading Harry Potter & the Deathly Hallows in less than 12 hours. 10 hours to be exact. But if you minus off the 3 hours for French and 1 hour for lunch. It took be 6 hours.


My opinion on it? It was good. Without spoiling anything for those who haven't read it, I would say it was very SAD and my theory was wrong. Very wrong. I now want someone to finish the book so I can discuss it with them.

As you all should know by now, the 4 leading bookshops in Malaysia have decided to cancel their order with Penguin Publishing Malaysia for Harry Potter 7.
http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2007/7/21/nation/18369076&sec=nation

While I do not deny that many of you out there would be happy at this news since you can save 40 ringgit. I am very for want of a better word, angry at these 2 hypermarkets. Namely Carrefour and Tesco. While it is good as more people can read this book without burning a hole in their pockets, think of the 4 bookshops will you?

These bookshops have spent thousand of ringgit in preparing for this day. Where thousands of Potter fans over the world will be celebrating the release of the final book. And guess what? Malaysian fans are deprived of this just because Carrefour and Tesco want to sell the book at a loss. Yes a loss. They bought the book for more than 69.90 so in truth MPH, Times, Popular and Harris are not profiteering from us.

I may not be an obsessed fan but I do feel sad that even though it is the last book, there will be no breakfast parties, no quizzes, no contests, no treasure hunts held by bookshops just because of these 2 hypermarkets.

The magic of it all is lost. But there's always mugglenet for the UK celebrations. =D

Deathly Hallows

It's been a hectic week. Class test 3.
Can't really be bothered about studying this year. I mean, I wasn't crazy hardworking last year in studying but I did make an effort to study. This year I just opened the book and stared at the pages. You see, the science subjects just don't interest me. I hate Bio, Physics and Add Maths have too many numbers for my liking and Chemistry is just okay. This why I shouldn't be in the Science stream. But it's a little too late for that. I don't want to change streams and re-study everything again like Tricia. Oh well, I'll just have to endure another year and a half before I can close my science books forever. Seeing as I'll be taking Accounts and stuff at college. But to tell you the truth, I just want to do English. Literature preferably. No idea what job I can get though.

The most important thing of the week is what's happening at 12.01a.m. BST tomorrow. Or also 7.00a.m. Malaysia.

Finally the last book is here. All questions are answered. Theories put to rest. The ending revealed. Kinda sad the cover is so ugly though.

P.S. BST stands for British Summer Time.

A bunch of the 6M people. With 2 of my ex homeroom teachers.

Sometimes I really do miss my primary school days.

Went to Ji Lynn's party on Sunday. It was okay la. But so few KDU-ians seeing as class tests are this week. All her ex-school friends are so weird.

I'm sure anyone who hasn't been living under a rock knows that 'Harry Potter & the Order of the Phoenix' was released nationwide on 10th July 2007. And like everyone else, I was excited to watch it. Was going to watch it yesterday after my piano exam, BUT tickets were sold out till Sunday for Gold Class. But in the end my mum managed to get 2 tickets for today's 3p.m. movie.

Me and my sis went to Chili's for lunch then went straight to the cinema as didn't want to be late seeing as this is an important movie. =P. Saw Joey, Yue Ping and other people whose names I do not know. Eventually found out they were going to Gold class too. As people started entering the cinema hall, realized that KDU-ians took up more than half of the Gold Class.

There was Joey's gang, Victor's gang, Chloe and Kian Yuan(sp?), Lauren and someone else I couldn't see and Matthew Pang. Just goes to show what a bunch of spoiled kids KDU-ians are if more than half the cinema was us. Haha. Did you know the SeGi college has an advertisement in the cinema? It's the first time I've ever seen a college advertise themselves like that.

Now to the movie. In my opinion it was one of the better Harry Potter movies. They may have left out many aspects of the book and changed a couple of parts. But they did manage to make the movie in a smooth way that even if you didn't read the book it wouldn't have seem incomplete. Effects were nice. Maybe I didn't really have expectations seeing as the fourth movie was such a disappointment, but it was better than the other movies.

The unfortunate thing was that Draco Malfoy only appeared a little bit in the movie. Boohoo. Luna Lovegood was good though. And the Thestrals are cool.

Sorry for the lack of updates. But as I said before, my sis is a camera hogger.

As you all should have read by now, we, the form 4's went on a field trip to Bukit Cahaya agricultural park, Shah Alam. It was in my opinion, a waste of time. All we did was walk, we did not learn anything except that pizza hut as the lousiest service in the world.



This is the weirdest tree I have ever seen. It was a hybrid of durian, mangosteen, grape etc trees. Trixie and Nat thought they just stuck the fruits there.

That's part of the very pretty garden. It was the 4 seasons garden. Which just so happened to be SUMMER when we visited it. Was much cooler than outside though.


Look at the number of KDU-ians.

Noisy bird. Screeched like a banshee.

Cute monkey. It peed on Mel C though. It's eating an orange.

Porcupines!!

On saturday was Sri KDU's annual swimming gala. There seemed to be more swimmers than anything else. Blue got 1st, Red 2nd, Yellow 3rd and Green 4th. I went as I had to take part in the 50m relay as red house didn't have enough swimmers. Actually got 2nd but the *school swimmer* Genna forgot the rules and got us disqualified. No biggie though. Haha.

Then on sunday went to Tony Roma's as Shan is back!!! Saw Chiang Lin and family, Riza and family and Ms Hoo. It was her b'day so we sent over dessert and a balloon. =D Got into Sanctuary and drank. Word of advice, do not order a Black Russian if you're not a regular drinker. As it's pure alcohol. Vodka and Kahlua. Played pool and foosball after that. I'm bad at pool. Went back to Melissa's place after that. The night continued on with much laughter and funny situations.

Slept at 4. Woke at 7.30. Went home at 10.30. The rest went to 1U to watch Transformers. Didn't go as had to come home and do 'work'. Ended up catching up on sleep instead.

The easiest and the hardest.

This is why my grandmother once told me that the English language is both the easiest and the hardest to master

  • We’ll begin with a box, and the plural is boxes;
  • But the plural of ox became oxen, not oxes.
  • One fowl is a goose, but two are called geese,
  • Yet the plural of moose should never be meese.
  • You may find a lone mouse or a nest full of mice;
  • Yet the plural of house is houses, not hice.
  • If the plural of man is always called men,
  • Why shouldn’t the plural of pan be called pen?
  • If I spoke of my foot and show you my feet,
  • And I give you a boot, would a pair be called beet?
  • If one is a tooth and a whole set are teeth,
  • Why shouldn’t the plural of booth be called beeth?
  • Then one may be that, and three would be those,
  • Yet hat in the plural would never be hose,
  • And the plural of cat is cats, not cose.
  • We speak of a brother and also of breathren,
  • But though we say mother we never say methren.
  • Then the masculine pronouns are he, his and him,
  • But imagine the feminine, she, shis and shim.

There is no egg in eggplant nor ham in hamburger; neither apple nor pine in pineapple. English muffins weren’t invented in England; quicksand can work slowly; boxing rings are square; and a guinea pig is neither from Guinea nor a pig.

And why is it that writers write but fingers don’t fing, grocers don’t groce and hammers don’t ham? Doesn’t it seem crazy that you can make amends but not one amend? If teachers taught, why didn’t preachers praught?

In what language do people recite at a play and play at a recital?

Ship by truck and send cargo by ship? Have noses that run and feet that smell? How can a slim chance and a fat chance be the same, while a wise man and a wiseguy are opposites?

You have to marvel at the unique lunacy of a language in which your house can burn up as it burns down, in which you fill in a form by filling it out, and in which an alarm goes off by going on. If Papa is Pop, how come Mama isn’t Mop?

If you have a bunch of odds and ends and get rid of all but one of them, what do you call it? If a vegetarian eats vegetables, what does a humanitarian eat?
