Imagine my joy when I saw the 7th harry potter book on the library book shelf this Friday. Haha. I looked forward to reading this book despite most other harry potter fans have already read it and written numerous reviews. I would check out its price every time I visit any bookshop. I never bought it because I was stingy, and have already run out of space in my room to store books. It's really good that I got it from the library as it solved both my problems. Lol.

To me, the most touching part was towards the end, when even the house elves were united to fight against the dark lord. There were lots of bloodsheds. My favourite Weasley twins, one died and the other lost a ear. Both incidents came about pretty sudden. Of course, being a children storybook (seriously, I doubt children can understand the last few episodes), it comes with a happy ending. Hermoine is married to Ron, and Ginny to Harry.

Met up with sauwai. Haha, this name has been absent from my blog posts for so long. The good thing bout meeting up with old friends is that, the conversations don't just stop at what are you doing recently and what movies have you watched this month. You can't possibly ask anyone "Is your brother getting married soon?" or tell anybody "My boyfriend's brother is handsome." More importantly, you don't have to sound politically correct all the time.

We bought three birthday presents. Gonna have a belated birthday celebration for three of our friends next week. Two of them were born in November. >_< Hopefully I'll see everyone there.

I know it seems really insincere to postpone birthday celebrations for two months.

During my supposedly birthday celebration, which was less than a week from my actual birthday, only two others turned up, one of whom left early. I found out the rest weren't able to make it on the spot. I wore makeup, strightened my hair and brought a camera. I didn't take out the camera of course. I felt like leaving to go home and cry. Very much on the contrary, I told myself to smile brightly to my friends who turned up, which I did. I wanted to show them that I appreciated their attendance.

To me, seeing my friends is a much better gift as compared to the actual birthday present itself. To have a birthday celebration when most of my friends don't turn up is worse than not having any celebration. Of course, I understood that they couldn't make it probably because they had something really important to attend to. But because I didn't want any of my friends to feel the same way as I did, the celebrations were postponed until everyone can make it. Haha. Anyway, I hope I don't have to postpone it another time. :)

I think I've spent too much over the past one week. Since I need not go NIE this month, I can afford to spend the transport fees on clothes. Lol. Speaking of NIE, the timetable is still not out yet. Argh. I really hope I'll get a 3 days week. Then the two months of torture will seem much shorter. :P
