August

The 3rd day of August....ugh...days closer to returning to prison...
Anyway, I'm being haunted...
By those birds who launched attack on me the first time.
I was ouside.
Just sitting.
And they started calling my name!
I am NOT kidding!
I'm seriously not.
They want revenge on me!
Or, maybe I'm just going insane.
Either way.

Interesting things about August::
1. July was named after Julius Caesar...."July"..."Julius". His nephew, Augustus defeated Cleopatra and Marc Antony, so it was said he should have a month named after him also. Hence, "August"...."Augustus"

And August 3rd::
1. It's the 218th day of the year

2. 8/3/1527---First known letter is sent from North America by John Rut while at St. John's, Newfoundland.

3. 8/3/1673---Robert LaSalle builds the Le Griffon, the first known ship built in America.

4. 8/3/ 1783---Mount Asama erupts in Japan, killing 35,000 people.

finally!

FINALLY!

I have finished the last Harry Potter book!

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows!

As I approached the end of the novel, the beloved novel that I so cherished, the novel that I spent hours pouring my mind, ears, eyes, and soul into,(and nose of course)..bookworm. I stuck with the Magical Trio through the beginning. The novel, that stimulated almost all of my childhood dreams, acting experiences(from HOURS of role playing Harry Potter.), and gave me an imagination that I could slip into at any rough place. And, as I reached the end of this novel... the last few pages...I felt a sentimental gratitude, sadness, but yet happy, that I could join the journey so many others have onto the Train to Hogwarts. And, I might have shed a few tears in respect for my past, and those beloved characters, who may be lost, but will always be in my heart. To that, JK Rowling, I thank you. So very, very much.

WARNING!

DEATHLY HALLOWS SPOILERS BELOW!!!!!

Deathly Hallows

Ok, so I finally finished Harry Potter 7, The Deathly Hallows....and now, I admire Mrs. Weasley.....

after her outburst to save Ginny,

with her "NOT MY DAUGHTER, YOU BITCH!", which resulted in Bellatrix Lestrange's

death! I literally pumped my fists in the air and yelled, "YOU GO MOLLY!!" So, as I close the pages of this series, I would like to remember the deaths that moved me, and the ones that occured in the 7th book.

-------------------------------the other books.

Albus Dumbledore...6th book.

played by Michael Gambon
