Where will u be???

Subject: Where will u be??? Thu Jul 19, 2007 9:39 pm

I have been ill since the past 2-3 months. I have been suffering from this disease since the past 7 years or so but lately the symptoms have got stronger and am struggling to lead a normal life. I cant concentrate on the activities i am supposed to do. I can’t sleep peacefully. I have got an OCD of checking out all the zillions of sites and communities related to this illness (yes, it’s an epidemic; millions are suffering from it all over the world). Since the past 3-4 nights I have even started dreaming about it. Dreams in vivid details, dreams which I can recall completely when I wake up; dreams which have on occasions made me wake up with a start. I am suffering from the illness called Harry Potter.

With the date of its unveiling coming nearer by the minute, my life has been thrown into a tizzy. I am spending every waking minute anticipating the rush of adrenaline when I will unwrap the book and start reading it on 21st July. It seems that the clocks have slowed down. I am constantly surfing the net for news which will confirm that the stories of leaks and the various spoilers are all fake. It seems as if my life depends upon it. That if the spoilers are indeed true and that when I open the book and realize that the names of the chapters are the same which are currently circulating on the internet, then am going to have a breakdown.

I am waiting for the 21st. If somebody asks me what will u be doing on Saturday night, I won’t be ashamed to admit that I will be at home, snuggled up in my bed with a cold coffee, reading. For once, staying at home will be fashionable for many anxious youngsters like me. I am waiting for the magic to begin. Are you?

may the power of love be with all of us beacuse voldemort knows not of it!

I cant believe it...only a day left now...but two long nights... my deam are getting stranger and stranger.
last nite, i was Harry Potter and Dumbledore was back.
The weapon(prophecy) mentioned in OOP was actually muggle money and finaly Voldemort had acquired it. A princely sum of Rs.99/-

I know it makes no friggin sense, but dreams arent supposed to be logical. Are they?

at the cost of ridicule and hostility i will like to confess that i have no fascination for hp.i tried readin goblet of fire after all my friends told me how wrong i was and ended up readin jst ten pages.tho i am not an avid reader i have read most of jane austens books....sense n senbility,pride n prejudice,persuasion n some other books like good earth by pearl s. buck,many charles dickens works....read all the versions of great expectations...from the abridged ones to the original...loved it so.......my fav has been midnights children by rushdie though....i wish i would know what is that magic that j.k rowling weaves with such mastery....

Sadly the saga has ended!
Amrit is right, it has left a void...a void that will never be filled. No book will ever replace Harry Potter...None can. Its not the great style of writing nor the fantastic world that the raeder is transferred immediately into...its something undefinable. It will be safe to say that it is magic at work!

I envy those who never got interested into harry and his life. They have got a whole life to live if and when they start reading the book. We waited agonisingly for 10 long years to know what will happen to Harry, how will he surpass Voldemort...Is Snape good? Which secret does Dumbledore know because of which he trusts Snape and hundreds of others. These new recruits into the DA will be able to finish it all in a few days...IF THEY WANT.
Guys go for it, A little magic does not hurt any one.

I wonder if im sad because there will be no more books to look forward to...no more of Harry,Hermione and Ron's adventures No more of teh mysterious Hogwarts...I really dont know. But the fact remains that there is a VOID.
