predictions for 'harry potter & the deathly hallows' [Jul. 2nd, 2007|01:53 pm]
[mood | excited]

*either ron or hermione will die. maybe both, but in that case i'd never forgive j. k. rowling.

*r. a. b. will be revealed to be regulus black.

*draco malfoy will redeem himself to some degree, but it may not be enough to save him from death. in fact, he'll probably be killed by voldie and the death eaters after he turns against them. yeah.

*neville and luna will fall madly in love.

*lupin will finally stop being such a loser and stop pushing tonks away (as seen at the end of book 6, i know, i know)

*snape, snape, snape. does anyone really know? i don't think i can make any predictions there, except to say i still refuse to believe he is either wholly evil or wholly good.

okay, i know none of those were earth-shattering. but whatever. i'm not geeky enough to seriously ponder these things for hours on end :)

"Sometimes I wonder about my life. I lead a small life. Well, valuable, but small. And sometimes I wonder, do I do it because I like it, or because I haven't been brave? So much of what I see reminds me of something I read in a book, when shouldn't it be the other way around? I don't really want an answer. I just want to send this cosmic question out into the void. So, goodnight, dear void."

[mood | exhausted]

1 julie + 1 busy weekend + 150 (very loud) preview students + 1 very sick roommate + really thin dorm walls + monday + 5 classes = 1 totally exhausted julie

1 totally exhausted julie + 1 triple grande vanilla nonfat latte = 1 shaking, totally exhausted julie

hmm. something's not adding up...

free verse upon the passing of a bingley [Jan. 22nd, 2007|04:17 pm]
[Tags|, , , , , ]
[mood | distressed]

so swimmingly you swam
happy as a clam
like you didn't give a d**n
as chipper as can be

i walked in from my class
peered into the glass
saw your tiny, scaly mass
limp amongst the leaves

the other, frantic, darts
like a soccer mom at wal-mart
but fish aren't very smart
three seconds later, filled with glee

shocked, i tried to save him
but, alas, he hath no more swim
in him
gone.

then scooping up his lifeless form
his tiny face did a sweet smile adorn
to the toilet of my dorm
i swiftly carried him

and in the company of friends
dear bingley's short time here did end
a sad, sad proof of the
impermanence of life

this poem i know does really suck
but you, the reader, are in luck
for now i must go read about huck
huck finn, that is

thus sadly doth my story end
no happy ending around the bend
unless of course mr bingley will lend
his name to another fishy friend

so with that hope in my heart
i truly must from thee depart
and unfortunately start
my homework.

Dear whoever's listening,

Please let me out of here.
I would really like my science test and piano juries to be over.
Christmas break...  I need it.
I would also like a Barbie Jeep and a pony.
Thanks.
