Days of Summer

So, I finished my last exam an hour ago... and Starkid is always relevant.

RON:
We got these days of summer to,
remind us of each other!

HERMIONE:
The time we have to spend apart,
Will keep us in each others hearts!

HARRY:
I'm hoping that the good old days
are something that I will dream about at night.

DRACO:
Don't matter if it's soon or later,
I know that it's gonna be alright!

ALL:
I don't wanna see you go,
But it's not forever,
Not forever!

Even if it was you know,
That I would never let it get me down!

You're the part of me,
That makes me better,
Wherever I go!

So I will try,
Not to cry,
No one needs to say goodbye!

I don't wanna see you go,
But it's not forever,
Not forever!

Even if it was you know,
That I would never let it get me down!

You're the part of me,
That makes me better,
Wherever I go!

So I will try,
Not to cry,
No one needs to say goodbye!

The Platform, Sirius, and Doctor Who.

I'll do a proper post real soon, when I have some time one my hands, probably after exams, but I HAVE TO SHARE THIS WITH YOU.
New favourite L/J fanfic: The Platform
Take a couple minutes to read it, it's under 2,000 words, and really good. (:
I'll probably do a full L/J recommendations list post soon.

R.I.P. Sirius Black who departed this world 15 years ago on this very day. I think you were a brilliant and amazing man, and life was unfair to you. I'm glad you're in a better place, reunited with your Prongs.

Oh, and the bookstore near my house is Doctor Who crazy, I mean, I don't even live in England or anything. Take a look at this:
 

Three of those magazines are dedicated to Doctor Who. Pretty sick.

Drowning in homework.

I have shitloads of homework due tomorrow like you wouldn't believe, and I've barely started. I really don't like the last couple weeks of school because of this, and life just went down the drain after LC. Sometimes, I feel like crying out of frustration. It went from amazing to just complete shit. On Friday, I completely forgot it was Friday, the week went by so fast. During English class I kept wanting to burst into tears, and I have no idea why. I guess I've just been feeling really alone lately.

Anyways, I started watching Doctor Who yesterday. (New Who, Season 1, Episode 1 [Rose]) It's not my first time trying to watch it, but I figured that I should probably start from the beginning. I went to the bookstore, and I saw a magazine called Doctor Who Insider, and it was a magazine completely dedicated to Doctor Who. I bought it. When I went to pay for it, that cashier was a complete fan boy, pretty funny stuff. He was nice, and was just freaking out. I wish I had watched more, so I could have more to add to the conversation. Oh well. I love when I meet other nerdy people who are huge fans of things I like. (:

Weather: nice? cloudy?
Mood: SHIT. It has been all week.
Snack: Cherries
Music: Eet - Regina Spektor
Book: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
Fanfiction: No time for that now,

P.S. If anyone actually reads this blog, do something to let me know please, maybe leave a comment. I always feel like I'm talking to myself.

Best weekend of my life.

This weekend, I went to LC (leadership camp) at school, and it was the best weekend ever. My group was amazing, my builders were hilarious, and I loved every moment. There was a moment where we were in our room, and 'Time of my life' came on (iPod was on shuffle), and we all just walked into a circle and sang it, it seemed magical.

The theme of LC was 'Movies' and so obviously there was a Harry Potter group, but I wasn't in it :( I was in Transformers. When they tell you your group, you go up to the front, and for the Harry Potter group, they got sorted by the sorting hat. I would've died. The most depressing thing is that almost everyone in the Harry Potter group hates Harry Potter. :/

We were talking about bucket lists and someone said they wanted to go to a drive in movie theatre so, we've decided that we're going to see Harry Potter for our reunion. Fuck transformers, we're going to see Harry Potter, bitches.

There's something called Polyadics, and you're with your group for 4 hours, and you talk about deep and intense stuff. Definitely a highlight. However, my builder is cheap, and we all make fun of him for it, but it really isn't great. He bought us 77cents paper towel which does not fell pleasant on the face when you're wiping away tears.

Theres things like 'stress runs' where you run through the school hallways at top speed, and screaming as loud as you can and a talent show where there are group skits, and you make fun of your builders. It's ridiculously fun, and its just so amazing.

At the end, there something called 'warm fuzzies', where you write warm and fuzzy messages to people in your groups and your friends who are there, and the first couple times I read my warm fuzzies I cried. At the closing ceremony almost everyone was crying, especially the grade 12s who are graduating this year. I miss camp already.

It's JUNE! ...and I'm getting sidetracked.

As you all probaby know, IT’S ALREADY JUNE!

Which means my life currently consists of school, exams, summatives, assignments, and projects. Oh, and tons of procrastination. WOOHOO!

I don’t know about you, but this school year passed by insanely fast for me.

Oh crap, “Marchin’ On” by OneRepublic just started playing. (I have a playlist on shuffle at the moment.) I can’t help but tear up at this song. It’s like they made it for Harry Potter. 43 days guys. I just can’t believe it’s ‘ending’. Well, not really, but y’know what I mean. It’s the last movie, and we’re marching on. OneRepublic is slowly getting me to like them more and more. I liked most of their singles, and then I found out about how “Everybody Loves Me” is basically James Potter’s theme song, and then ”Marchin’ On” with that tribute video, I almost died, because it was so amazing. Fan video here.

And now “Innocent” by Talor Swift is playing. Remember sometime ago I said I would blog about this song? Probably not, but I’ve been meaning to talk about this song for a while now, but I’ve never gotten around to it. Anyways, as people know, this song is about that whole Kanye West thing a little while ago. However, this song also fits perfectly for our friend… wait for it… Draco Malfoy. Yup. Little D. It’s like a letter from Big D to Little D (Dumbledore to Draco).

I guess you really did it this time, left yourself in a war path, lost your balance on a tightrope, lost your mind trying to get it back – Dark Mark & joining the Death Eaters

Wasn’t it easier in your lunchbox days, always a bigger bed to crawl into, wasn’t it beautiful when you believed in everything, and everybody believed in you?  – He was kind of shielded from everything before, and now he’s gotten into the middle of everything.

It’s alright, just wait and see, your string of lights are still bright to me, who you are is not where you’ve been, you’re still an innocent  – Dumbledore knew he was still innocent, which is part of the reason he got Snape to kill him instead of letting Draco do it.

Did some things can’t speak of, but at night you live it all again. You wouldn’t be shattered on the floor now, if only you had seen what you know now then. – Self explanatory, and shattered on the floor would refer to crying in Myrtle’s bathroom.

Get the idea? (The lyrics there may not be 100% correct, since I did them off by heart. I am lazy, and couldn’t be bothered to get up and find my lyric booklet.)

I Just Had Sex is now playing. Reminds me of the James Potter sex riot on tumblr, someone had said that was his theme song. Oh, the things we get up to on tumblr. It’s amazing and hilarious.

Anyways, this post has become a whole lot longer than I originally planned, and very much side-tracked. I really should have been working on my essay about Atticus from ‘To kill a mockingbird.’ Oh well, this has been fun.
