Harry Potter

Since I started the Harry Potter class, I have never read the books 1-7 in order. I just finished the 2nd one four minutes ago and I have not read it since I was in the fifth grade. Talk about reading a totally different book! I am seeing so many foreshadows that hint to the other books, but it is so hard not to give away spoilers in the class! Two girls in the class have never read the books before and I find it difficult not to give away spoilers, as was the teachers request. I love knowing that I am getting college credits for my favorite book series of all time! People who think Twilight is the greatest series do not know what they are talking about. Those books have no depth to them. Harry Potter though has tons of British history and customs, and other references to mystical characters in history. I feel such a connection and passion for Harry Potter because the books were the first ones that made me truly enjoy reading. I go into my own world every time I read them and before I know it, I've read the second book in three days! 

Moving on from Harry Potter, I am getting bored! I work five days a week, but with my roommate working back home for the summer, aka my boyfriend Kris, I am lonely! Sure I have my wonderful dachshund Pricilla to keep me company, but she sleeps a lot. I try to take her outside and play with her as much as possible, but there's only so much time I can dedicate to playing dog. Also, Kris gets to have a good ass time at the Gorge this weekend for a two day music festival that I was not able to go to this year. We both went last year, but this year I couldn't afford it because I just went and paid for summer tuition by myself. I have been saving for the last nine months to pay for school and that meant that I wouldn't be able to afford the concert :( I know how much fun it was the first year I went and it sucks knowing how much fun he is having this year. At least he's told me it's not as much fun without me there, but he's still have a hella good time. I keep telling myself that on the fourth of July, I get to go home and see him, but then it will have been two weeks since we've seen each other. Talk about along two weeks!! It's hard being away from my best friend for so long, but I guess it's good to miss each other.
