another day drags on

yes here it is... my last day of cfs camp and instead of making the best possible use of the tools at hand i am updating my blog which i can do at any old time. listening to blink-182 on mon ipod. i love this album. take off your pants and shirt. i've been trying to listen to other stuff all week but when it comes down to it i just love it. it is definately the best.

i was reading the new harry potter book last night. i got to exactly the middle... chapter 15. i'm such a geek when it comes to harry potter. i don't even know why i like it. it's such an easy read and you wait so long for it (2 years to be exact...) and then you read it and you're like hmm and then a week later you're done and waiting for the next one. i guess its more of a comfort thing than of anything else. i don't know. i really disliked the fifth book... it was like harry potter was looking to be special but now in the middle of #6 there are constant referals to arguments and things that happened in the fifth book which i don't remember. i mean it was 2 summers ago that i read it. i'll have to go back and skim through it. at least #6 doesn't have the beginning story chapter like all the others. that gets a little old. my mom says that the books should come with like a bookmark timeline to remind you of all the previous things that happened but you don't have to read it if you don't want to. this is probably a good idea because when you skip that first reiterating chapter in the book you are also likely to miss something j.k. rowling slips in there that will become important later... at the "oh moment" when it all comes together in the second to last chapter including a lengthy chat between dumbledore and harry. that's another thing about the harry potter books that bugs me... they all follow the same format! it's annoying but proves the comfort thing... you know what to expect. grr... the last thing that's annoying about #6 (and also a little bit in #5) is that j.k. rowling tries to develop relationships between the characters. why does she need to add in that hermione asks ron to the yuletide dinner or whatever? or that harry feels a frisson when watching ginny. it's turning the book into a twisted triangle of love and if i wanted to read about that i would (and i do read that crap half the time). she should definately stick to talking about harry potter because twisted triangles of love are not her strong point. though i still think it would be pretty funny if hermione started sleeping around and got pregnant with one twin harry's and the other ron's. like on passions (a soap opera that norah and i like to watch in the summer for those that actually have something better to do then sit around and watch passions and dawson's creek and other crud like that) when ethan had an affair with theresa and she was pregnant with his baby and also his and gwen's baby due to some mixup at the hospital. then when one baby died they fought over the other one and it was funny.

blink-182 is finished. now i'm listening to simple plan. no pads, no helmets, just balls. another old album but new to me... i just got it in new york city.

i guess the attacks yesterday in london were only attempts and not fufilled. thats good. i think 1 person injured? i don't know. the authorities are still not letting a lot of details out and keeping the whole thing hush hush. it makes me really sad that people think they need to resort to bombings and violence to get the message across. what makes me even sadder is that it sort of works. i mean. i don't know what i mean. it's hard to explain.

leaving for florida tomorrow so the nonexoistent people reading this shouldn't expect another entry until monday or tuesday... whenever we end up getting back because i'm not too optimistic about the weather. we have an afternoon flight home on monday and afternoon t-storms down here (and there) are an often occurance. i expect an afternoon of waiting around in the airport and an early morning flight back tuesday. i don't know. at least i'll have my harry potter book to read (and reread if it gets that bad i gues) and the fort lauderdale airport has lots of stores and frappes and stuff. or it should. don't all airports?
