News and Such

Well bought and read Harry Potter 6. Have to say that I don't think it was as good as HP5 but still quite good. Somehow my roommate managed to piece together from the web who died (and with decent support for his conclusion). Amazed he was right. At the same time the death made sense as incidentally who was the Half Blood Prince did. I've heard that HP6 reviewed as essentially setting up HP7. I do feel this. It wasn't as tense and doom-filled as HP5 rather is fealt kind of transitory. Still worth a read at some point. One thing though: why are the good-guys so freaking incompetent? Continously the school kids save the day and the adults can barely match their opponents! The gov't probably couldn't beat the school kids in a fair fight! Kinda lopsided there :/ Rowling has also increased her Brit slang I believe although i'd have to re-read the older books to confirm this. Mighta noticed more now that I've heard most of it used.

Watched Better Off Dead last night. Very strange movie. Somehow funny still. Actually hilarious at places. It's very1980s through and through. If you watch it, don't blame me if you come away disturbed!

Not much to talk about this week. Wednesday IS Cup Event #2 commences with mini-golf. Andy and I got shafted with very late tee-times (past 7) so at this rate I'll get home by maybe 9:30. Could be an incredibly long day. Debating coming in late and just working late that day. Otherwise seems like a usual week. That's ok though too. Maybe it'll cool down (yea right).

Other then that I guess things are quiet. Kinda why I haven't written much. Not much to say. Well gonna kick back and listen to Jack Johnson now. (Thanks Evie :D )
