I went to the midnight party at my local Waldenbooks for the last Harry Potter book - & dang it was fun.
When we (we = me & 2 friends) got there, we were entered in a raffle for random things (the biggest prizes being the first 2 spots in line to buy the book!). After that, we tried our hands at the spelling bee. I must admit, I was appalled at how badly people can spell nowadays. oo; There were two mothers there who had read the books who couldn't spell some easy words (one put a a "w" in "Bellatrix." o0; ). Though I admit, I messed up "apothecary" (I spelled it "apoth
ocary"

), other people messed up on far easier words. >>;
My favorite part of the whole night was the costume contest!

I went as Tonks (seen
here!), & ended up WINNING!!!! *cries with happiness* I seriously didn't think I would - there was this one girl who had a PERFECT Slytherin uniform - not just the cloak, but the uniform that goes underneath as well!! I guess people didn't like her cuz she went on about how Slytherin was the best house & what-not.

;
Anyways - I have NOT read the entire book yet - I finished re-reading the 6th (& cried ssssoooo hard. ;_; ) last night, & got about 6 chapters into the 7th. DON'T TELL ME ANYTHING!!!! D8 Not even rumors!!

;
Alright, I'm done. >w>;
