Hello Flist! Just wondering if anyone was interesting in buying this Beedle poster I got from work :) (I have two, lol) Shipping would be $8.00 because i'd have to buy a mailing tube but other than that, make me an offer ^^ I could use a couple of groceries XD

Here is the picture :)( what a lovely piece of decor :D )

Went to my Waldens earlier today and got two awesome presents :D

Here is a picspam :D
( Erm... Mustache )

Dear Flist, I present to you:

The Video

The Shirts

So I bought the HPOotP deluxe edition thing and it came with a digital copy of the movie. Awesome right? Wrong! It is only compatible with windows media player and it can't be uploaded into my iPod! What the Heck!? Why give me a digital copy I can watch on my laptop if I can just pop the DVD and watch it! It's completely frikkin pointless! So the thing only works with Microsoft mp3 players... which is like what? .5% of all mp3 player owners!? WB, WHAT THE HELL!? I tried using my SUPER converter (which is awesome BTW, turns anything into anything else, I got all my avis and mpegs turned into .mp4's for my Nano) unfortunately, I'm guessing there's some sort of copyright on it and it wont work! So if anyone figures out how to get it into an iPod let me know!

Got mah DVD!!! :D

Now it is sleep tiemz 'cos tomorrow I have a 6hr morning shift! rawr :<

I'm sick of my home and I'm homesick for my old home. I haven't been back home (Puerto Rico) since graduation. I miss it. I want to go back for a little while but I'm broke. I don't even know why I want to go back so badly when a year ago I was desperate to leave it behind. I miss Zoey and my grandma. I miss the heat and the traffic. I miss Spanish. I miss the frogs at night, I miss the caco's blaring music at 2 am. I miss the sirens, I miss knowing that there is a party going one somewhere (even though I probably wouldn't go). I miss it a lot. I want to go back for a little while. Why can't I go? Why am I so busy yet have nothing to do? Why do I lack motivation? Why??? What's so great about home and why do I miss it so much? It's driving me crazy. I think about it everyday, it's like Harry Potter, it's ever present in my mind. I should be worrying about more important things. This sucks!! Everything relatively close and important is blurry around the edges yet not-so-important things are crisp and sharp. It's retarded! I should be worrying about my portfolio, about my sketchbook, about my test on Friday! Instead I'm worrying about a convention that hasn't been confirmed and is four years away. FOUR YEARS. I feel stuck, I want to clear my mind, I want to regain motivation and focus. How can I do that? I feel like I do everything that is important half-heartedly and I work hard at things that are trivial. WHY??? I consciously know I'm doing it, why can't I stop!? Anyone else ever feel this way?

</emo rant>

Have I ever mentioned how much I LOVE Fridays? Well I DO :) I just got my paycheck (biggest one yet :D) so I no longer have $59 in my checking account (Thank God, I'm in serious need of refueling my car o_O). And hooray for my savings account! I started saving up for Christmas <3 Also, tomorrow is DS Fridays, meaning I get to steal my brother's Nintendo DS and play with my friends at the Cafeteria (Yes I am a college student, lawl) AND tomorrow (or later today rather) I get to go to Universal Studios' Halloween Horror Nights which I hear is AWESOME. I'll take TONS of pictures for you guys to see :) 

Hmmmm.... Oh yeah, there's a Halloween costume party November 1st at SFCC hosted by our hispanic club which should be fun . I'm debating whether or not to buy a sailor costume  or maybe the Alice in Wonderland costume for it, (on the same day of course so it should be discounted seeing as it's the day AFTER Halloween)

And Finally, I'm selling Sirius Black. My iPod nano.
It's a 1st Gen black iPod nano with 2GB of memory. I have the original packaging but no manual, sorry.
If anyone is interested please comment!

Sirius- $100
Wireless Headphones- $10
Hard Case- $5


(I'm selling so I can buy a new DSLR for my Photography class.
IF ANYONE HAS A DSLR AND ARE WILLING TO SELL IT TO ME PLEASE LET ME KNOW!!! I have a Canon SD1000 PowerShot 7.1 MegaPixel camera that I want to trade in for one (and pay the difference or something...)

I finally have time to post this! I got my Weasley Swap the other day ^^ Yaaaay *is happy* I bought a Gryffindor track jacket at Hot Topic too. I sent some HP goodies to Bloody Harry and he received them yesterday aaaaand that's it ^^"

I shall declare this day ULTIMATE POTTER CRAFT DAY, in which I shall do nothing but Harry Potter crafts (mainly finishing my swap items) Woo! *goes to sleep... after watching anime.. no! No! Sleep! SLEEEEEEP!*

Oh my God I've been absent from LJ o____o Life has been hectic, but I'm surviving. I found out a few minutes ago that I won the HP craft challenge :D I'm so happy! I've never won a craft challenge before :3 I have a bunch of things to tell but I'm too lazy to type them out right now. Look forward to a real post sometime tomorrow or something ^^"

1. What's the nerdiest thing you've ever done in the name of Harry Potter?

Insisting to dress up as Ginny Weasley at Waldenbooks the last 7 days before HPDH came out. I even changed my nametag to say Ginny Weasley and I was in character the whole time XD

2. How many people have you peer-pressured into reading the series?

Pretty much everyone I meet who hasn't read it yet XD I converted my BFF into the fandom X)

3. What's the biggest misconception non-HP have about the series and/or fandom?

To be honest, I'm so immersed in the fandom that I don't know how to answer this question o_O

4. What is your favorite piece of HP merchandise?

Hmmm... this is a hard one... I think my favorite one is the Hogwarts messenger bad from Hot Topic... I love my costumes as well... I can't pick >.<

5. Do you think the HP fandom will still be strong 10 years from now?

Sure! If Star Trek, Star Wars and LotR can do it, why can't we do it as well? I'll always be a fan no matter what :) Harry Potter was my childhood, you can't turn your back on that!

I finished my hoodie yesterday :D:D:D:D

Hey guys ^^! A friend's birthday is coming up in two weeks and I'm making her a Gryffindor hoodie similar to mine. Sadly, I find myself a bit short on cash and in need of a Gryffindor Quidditch Patch.  Would anyone be willing to trade one for a full set of the "There Will Soon Be 7" campaign bookmarks, a limited edition "There Will Soon Be 7" pin and a "trust Snape" sticker?

I am extremely excited to announce that I printed the first copy ever of The Kneazle. It's pretty damn good looking but I still need to fix a few kinks in it :D Hooray!

I've been photo shopping like crazy making an HP fan zine. I got 3 pages done today including cover art :D *accomplished* And just because I want to show off... here is the cover ^^ Oooh and write down your mailing address so I can send it to you ^^ (comments screened)

Overdraft fees are the devil. I cannot even begin to explain how on Earth I managed to owe my parents nearly $600, but this is my current situation. All I can say is that Bank of America is a fucking bitch. I don't get a paycheck until 3 weeks from today... Oh jolly good fun. I also have to take that stupid retarded Computer Literacy Test today... fun.

In other news, my manager got into a car accident and lucky for me, he decided I should fill in for him. So hooray for cashflow!

Alright enough about my RL bitching, on to the fun stuff!

Prophecy was one of the most amazing Potter experience in my life. I could not have imagined a better time. Meeting everyone at long last was great and I miss them all terribly :( I cannot even begin to explain what went on. All I know is I got around 10 hours of sleep during the whole thing and it was bloody fantastic. Lukey and Bonnie are insanely hilarious. Four Kings is the most intense game evar (specially when you are missing a King and do not realize it until the end of the game). From now on, saying "Obliviate" when drunk is a must. I found out not all Snapes like to be hugged. Hufflepuffs are insanely vicious people. Podcast people are snobs. Oliver Boyd is overrated (YES I SAID IT, HE IS AND YOU KNOW IT!) You know you are wasted when there are pictures of you with your underwear on your head. Never go into a vendor room unless you want to go bankrupt. Street signs are considered weapons of mass destruction unless hidden in a trash bag. Canadian money is hard to count. Never break out into South Park's "Blame Canada" song nor "There is no Canada like French Canada" around Torontonians. The Elder Wand is known as the Sodomy Stick. Cashiers do not find the humor in selling "Canned Beaver." Hippodactyls are hilarious. Shoes are not required. Yelling "reducto" at a chess piece is fun and approved of. Feasts are overrated and breakfasts are too early. IMAX is awesome. Posing with a character is a 30 minute job. Never give bloody Harry a mind freeze. Liquor Stores will forever be named "Bottleos." The Hufflepunks is the nicest wrocker on the planet. Wrock Fangirls are violent and scary. There will never be enough words to encompass the awesomeness of Prophecy. 2010 is too far away.
