Harry Potter = bane of my existance

Let's just say that I've worked at a bookstore for 3 years.  Long enough to experience the hype surrounding the 4th and 5th books.
I think you underestimate the level of my sneakiness

Harry Potter = bane of my existance


Is that good or bad?

Oh, and just for the fact, consider me obsessed. I attend two schools right now, my normal school and http://hol.org.uk , an online Hogwarts. I take
 
Arithmancy - A deeper study of the meaning of numbers. fun math, pretty much.
Astronomy - Study of the heavenly bodies.
Herbology : Killers and Healers - The class in which we learn about botany and which will either kill/heal you.
Prisoner of Azkaban - Dissection - In depth debates over the third Harry Potter.
Veela Language - I love Fleur Delacour, so Veelan was a must-take! Great language. Bii!

Registration re-opens in December and I might teach Pig Latin as a class starting January. Please join! My name is Anthony Kilcher.  :D

Harry Potter rocks!
Joe

lol... ive stayed away from harry potter. and i dont plan to change that!
ive never really been a fan of stories about wizards and stuff. i saw the first movie only because my neighbors forced me to. and i still didnt like it

but lately i've been down upon my knees
not looking for a miracle

I never really was into the whole Harry Potter phenomenon.

I feel asleep during the second movieee (I was dragged to the theater by friends).

the book is soooooooooooooooooooooooooo much better than the movie!!!!!!!! I don't know...you'd be suprised...I was one of those people who hated harry potter until recently in school I have to read 75 pages in a pleasure reading book and my mom won't take me to the library to get a different book until I read all of our books...which is like 10000000 so I picked up one of the harry potters books and haven't really put it down... It's a great book!! It's like opening your mind to something fun and different. It's a really cool thing.

Neither have I, but it is VERY popular with intellectuals who are into the wizard and magic stuff.  Among other things I just haven't been down to buy any of them.

seriously even if you despised the movies or you hate the whole sorcery/fantasy theme, read it anyway...the first book is like a couple hundred pages, so you can get through it really quickly...and you probably will ;)...I'm only saying this for your own betterment
