Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

Oh well.. Finally the long anticipated book has been released.. For those who haven't read the book, but intend to, I strongly suggest you not to read on.. Haha!!

---- YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED! READ AT YOUR OWN RISK---

Children Version of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

Adult Version of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

Ok, this book is all about solving the mysteries that has been hovering around from book 1 to book 6.. A lot of mysteries are solved and many ppl are killed! No doubt about it.. And I can assure you, most of the rumours that have been flying here and there has been all lies and not a single drop of truth in it!

SPOILER AHEAD! READ AT YOUR OWN RISK!
--------------------------------------------------

(1) Ok, first of all I would like to salute J.K. Rowling, in keeping the story in the dark for most of the year, risking her credibility by not letting anyone, even the Customs check her luggage just because her manuscript is in there.

The plot itself is pretty good and well organized.. This shows that Rowling has been planning for the whole plot since the writing of the first book.. Everything just seems to fall into place..

(2) Secondly, I would like to express my suprise.. Cause this morning at 730am i went to Borders to collect my copy, and it is almost empty! What happened to all the queues and all the crowds and... You get what i mean! So, I plainly grabbed the book, paid the remaining 20bucks and went home to read.. Lol!!

(3) Thirdly, this is the book which has the most deaths! Let's see now.. Remind me if I miscalculated!

Remus Lupin

Nyphamdora Tonks

Rubues Hagrid

Fred Weasley

Tom Marvolo Riddle(most commonly known as Lord Voldermort)

Alastor "Mad-Eye" Moody

Rufus Scrimgeour

Severus Snape

Goyle

I must have missed some, cause I remembered it to be more..

(4) Oh yeah, in case you missed it, I didn't mentioned Harry Potter, nor Ron Weasley, nor Hermione Granger in the list! Cause they didn't bloody die! Unlike the suspicion that has been circulating around for sometime! LOL!!

The final chapter is pretty confusing at first, cause Harry has decided to name his kids Lily, James and Albus Severus! And he told Albus Severus that he is named after two of Hogwarts' best headmasters! LOL! That is so confusing! Wonder what it feels like calling your kids name by your parents name..

(5) Mysteries unveiled!

Countless of mysteries are unveiled and the location of the Hocruxes and how to destroy it are revealed throughout the 607 pages of the book..

The location of Hufflepuff''s cup: Never would I think it is in Bellatrix Lestrange's bank account and that is the reason why the cover of the children edition is plenty of gold..

The identity of the last Hocruxes: Well, we get to know that Ravenclaw's lost diadem(some sort of tiara) is a Hocrux, and amazingly, Harry himself is a Hocrux! Amazing right!!! Read the book for more details!

You may ask why the adult version shows Harry is dead... Well, Harry is "dead" for a moment there.. Pretty confusing I agree... Have to read that part a few times..

Snape's betrayal: Alas! He finally die... But before his death, he gave Harry part of his memory.. Pretty informative on why Dumbledore dies and why he turned side..

How to destroy Hocruxes: According to Hermione, the only way is by destroying the Hocrux beyond repair..

Way 1: By using rare and antidote-hard-to-obtain- poisons, like the Basilisk Venom which Harry used to destroy the diary.

Way 2: By using the sword of Godric Gryffindor, which Harry has used to kill the Basilisk and has some of the venom on it...

Way 3: By using some sort of fire.. Forgot the name.. Something like Lynxfyre or something like that...

The meaning of the Title: Deathly Hallows, is three objects which can prevent the possessor from dying.. The Elder Wand, The Resurrection Stone and The Cloak of Invisibility... The Cloak is Harry's Invisibility cloak, which is quite suprisingly! The Resurrection Stone is Marvolo's ring, and the Elder Wand is Dumbledore's wand! Wow!! Read the book to know more!!

(6) Neville's personality has changed totally in this book.. From a coward we see in book One, he changed into someone who can stand up against the tyranny of the "teachers", and in the end, becomes a Professor! In which subject, we can all guess...

Ok.. Wouldn't want to spoil it anymore! Haha!!

In total, I think this book is pretty infomative, and it ended quite stunningly, unlike the way most suppose it will be...

Every Harry Potter supporters should read this book! And i mean EVERYONE!!!

this month

as you all might know, i've been in kuching for the most of this month! been going out a lot and i'm almost given the same crap everyday: "don't come home so late"..



this holiday has been most eventful, at least i wont have to rot in perth doing nothing but sleep and watch dvds... lolx!



the number of times i'm at emagic... i lost count after 10



in total, i'm only at home for meals for exactly 5 times.. yes, you're right! 5 times including breakfast lunch and dinner for 20 days of holidays! most of the time we went out to eat or i go out with my friends to have gathering..



got my results back! currently 3HDs, which i am proud to say that i'm very happy! i actually got a hd for physics! *clap clap!* which is amazing, since i totally suck in physics like most of you noe! haha!!



watched two movies in the cinema..

(1) Transformers: wish I could watch at hoyts but well.. It is so freaking good! But the downside is the sound system here sucks like a vacuum cleaner.. They emphasis on the loudness not the quality! Haiz!! Well.. you couldn't expect much from RM10 right?

Nice Parts:
Every part of the movie, even the part Optimus says:" oops, my bad" is good!

Let downs:
What let downs?

(2) Harry Potter:

Nice Parts:

The DeathEater-OrderMembers showdown! Moody is so cool! One bang on the floor does the trick!

The No.12 grimmauld place appearance! Wow! Definitely not what i imagined!

"I must not tell lies" quill..

The veil sirius "fell in"

The way Dumbly disappear in the office! Nice job Fawkes!

Part two of dumbly and voldy battle

Weasley's disturbance during the exam



Letdowns:

Part one of dumbly and voldy battle- cause it just shows two wand connecting!

Like lionel say, the statue didn't move

The family tree sucks!

No harry's head in the fire.. Shit!

Cho and harry kiss! Kinda fake...


In total this movie isn't that bad, but didn't live to my expectations, like most of the HP movies..


Been spending a lot of money here.. I feel sorry for myself cause i'm going to leave Kuching with nothing in my wallet but my student card and my Aus bank card.. Kinda pathethic i know.. Haha!!

In conclusion, I wanna intro you all one song:
对手-郑伟康/Tank
Quite good, but i cant find a real link for ppl to download..
Just left click it.. Not for download

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows... 3 days away.. You all ain't going to see me online on Saturday night! Haha!!!

Kuching

There's only one word to express the weather in Kuching: HOT!

Been sweating like crazy here!

9/7 is an important day! Cause... It is the day the results is out! WOHO!!

HD for the win...

Java: HD!(unsuprisingly, considering how easy the final exam is!)
Physic: HD! (neutral, it is not too hard...)
Maths: HD! (extremely suprising, considering the fact that i screwed up most parts of my exam!)

Yesterday afternoon, played a bit of badminton, which is kinda screwed up, considering the fact that I haven't touched my badminton racket for ages, and i mean AGES!

Yesterday night, Xiao Liang have a housewarming party. His house is right next to er... some ppl's final resting place, and gives me a creepo! Haha!! JKJK! The food was pretty ok, and the karoake system must be broken by now! Haha!!

Feel pretty lazy to blog right now.. Just to give ppl an insight of my life!

P/s: Yong he, gd luck with ur exam! Poor guy..

At the airport

Now I'm blogging at the airport.. Standing man! How much more dedication do you want to ask for? :P... Anyway, I brought my laptop along, thinking I can use free broadband, but who knows? I forgot to bring my lan cable! LOL SIF GG!!

No chinese, no photos, no nothing.. HELL GG! So have to resort to blogging in english..

Last night went to the airport around 7pm, a bit too early, but I checked in first none the less, and I regretted the moment I told the guy I want window seat... GG!! Should have chosen aisle seats... Ah well...

Went into the departure lounge around 8pm, and regretted not bringing a book to read! High chin!! Have to ku there for 1 1/2 hours! How sad that is! Plus my Ipod Shuffle looks like it is going to be dead in a second so very kiu..

The 5 hours on the plane is so freaking boring! I spell it again, B-O-R-I-N-G!!!!! Have nothing to do! Freaking hell! No entertainment and shit like tat! Tried to sleep, but can't sleep! WTH!! At home can sleep like a log, on the plane cannot! Freak! On the same flight with Andrew Leong and his siblings.. Feel so "Xian Mu" they sleep like... something that sleep always...

When I arrived, I collected my luggage and the guy called me to go for custom check.. SIF man!! Like I'm gonna bring drugs... Do i look like someone who does drug trafficking? Honestly!!! (OK, you can shut up lionel and leong.. SIF!)

The moment I step out of the budget terminal, I have absolutely no idea where to go! Mind go blank totally.. Luckily I saw a shuttle bus and I remembered.. Sheesh!! Went on the bus and got to terminal 2...

Ate Mcdonald's "Big" Breakfast.. Sif big.. It is just two piece of toasted bread and a piece of meat and some scrambled egg.. And a hashbrown if i missed that.. SIF BIG!

Went to check in... Leong and his siblings had some problem with their ticket.. Ku there with them. See I so enough friend! Actually cause I have like 10 hours to kill and I just plainly wants to find things to do to kill them!

SIX more hours to go! Freaking hell!

Er... Maybe later I come back to blog again! Now I stand and blog man.. Tough on the leg.. Maybe I'll sit down and play some game! Shit!

See yua!

他妈的high!

This blog is gonna be in English, cause my uni friends also wants to read.. cause it is hell frustrating.. every engineering student will be hell shitty and wants to kill the examiner if they receive this kind of email in their student account..

Well, here goes nothing...

--------------------------------------------------
Dear student

I am writing to inform you of circumstances relating to the examination of GENG1001 Introduction to Engineering Mechanics, conducted on the morning of June 14th 2007. It is essential that you read the information below.

Unfortunately, due to a series of unfortunate incidents that took place during the exam, the exam script that you submitted on June 14th cannot be used for assessment within GENG1001. These incidents included the exam solutions being handed out during the exam itself, the exam solutions being handed to students as they left the venue while other students were still sitting the exam, and the very large number of queries that arose during the exam which I understand caused some disruption. We have a responsibility to all students to ensure that no student/s experience an unfair advantage or disadvantage during an examination, and unfortunately the examination held on June 14th did not meet this standard.

You will therefore be required to re-sit the GENG1001 exam during the first week of second semester, on Wednesday July 25th at 2pm, in Winthrop Hall. The exam will have the same format and duration (3 hr 10 min) as the June 14 exam.

I acknowledge that re-sitting the exam is highly undesirable for all of you, and I have not taken this action lightly. This is the first time in our Faculty''s history that such action has been taken.

In order to minimise disruption to your other studies, we will cancel any lectures and laboratories in Engineering and Maths units, that would be scheduled for the afternoon of July 25th. We will also ensure that no Engineering and Mathematics assignments will be due in that first week of Semester. We will also be happy to provide letters requesting special consideration to coordinators of units taught outside our Faculty where there are lectures/laboratories scheduled for that afternoon or assignments due around that time.

Please note that any student who has been granted a deferred exam for GENG1001, will be required to sit the exam on July 25th at 2pm in Winthrop Hall, with the rest of the GENG1001 cohort.

I sincerely apologize for this situation, and hope that you understand that we are working towards an equitable outcome for all of you.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And you promised me(us, watever!) a FAIR solution? This is hell not fair! RESIT FOR A TEST? THAT IS NEVER HEARD BEFORE! WAT THE FUCK IS THAT KIND OF LOGIC! DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE!

Plus not everyone received the stupid answer sheet.. And that is like for 5 minutes only! WHO THE FREAK CARES!

THAT IS HELL NOT FAIR FOR US!!! TO THINK WE HAVE TO STUDY DURING OUR HOLS! Somemore I'll be in kch during the hols! I thought studying in Kuching is over already! WHAT THE FUCK!!!!

THIS IS SOME KIND OF NIGHTMARE.. I KNOW IT IS.. maybe if i go to sleep and when i wake up, everything might be OK....

ZZZ....

SHIT! everything is still the same! T.T

So much for holidays...

ONE THING I STILL DON'T UNDERSTAND:
WHY DO WE HAVE TO PAY FOR SOMETHING THE EXAMINERS SCREW UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

fellow geng comrades, anyone who wants to burn down the stupid engineering building, lets gather round and burn it to crisp..

Joking... not angry till like that! but almost!

shit.. I can almost imagine me studying and doing jellyfish in kuching..

SIEN MAN!!!

Weirdest and most tulan phone call ever...

Me: Hello?
Caller: Hello? Hai! I'm from Optus(one of the phone company here, which is weird, cause I'm using Virgin Mobile).
Me: Er... Yeah.. Can I help you?(Trying to be courteous)
Caller: Ah Yeah, there's this new package, that I thought you might be interested.
Me: Let me ask you first, how did you get my number in the first place?
Caller: Never mind about that!(First rudeness)
me: Er... Ok!
Caller: This package is very good one.(The guy is an Indian) If you sign up to this package, we will give you a new phone.
Me: Er.. But I'm already on a package right now.(Which is true)
Caller: You still can have a new one, right? (Laugh to self)
Me: -.-|| (OKkkkk...., starting to get a bit creepy and frustrating)
Me: I'm not interested, but thanks anyway.
Caller: Wait! There's a new phone, a (some model, can't remember)!
Me: I'm not interested... (Uneasy, trying to get of the stupid phone call politely)Er, I'm driving right now, so forgive me for hanging up!(Which i am not, cause i have no licence and no car here)
Caller: You're driving and talking on the phone at the same time? Now, if you sign up for this package, i won't tell anyone about this.
Me: !!! (How rude can you be!! WTF!)

I just pressed the red button on my phone and go:"WHAT THE FXXK!!!!!!"

What do you call a sheep with no leg?
A cloud.

考试。。

从星期一开始就是我在uni的第一个semester exam。。是kiu chin chin! 整整整个non-teaching study break都在念书，我觉得统考的时候我都没有这么pia! 我的一群书友也说他们在TEE(他们的统考)也没有那么用功!可能是因为我们是international student,需要还双倍以上的价钱才能够来到这个uni来念吧!粗勒!可是这里的local读书厉害的厉害，差的却差到爆乳!

有点偏移主题了。。

回归正传，星期一是physic(乃是我最怕的考试)。。幸好放在第一天，没有的话。。幸好今年的题目都算满容易的。。唯有heat and thermodynamic今年比以往几年都难。。electric还算有人性一点。。可能是教授知道他教的太烂了，所以没有刁难我们。哈哈!!! 当天下午就和书友们留在library学星期三的maths。。可是由于某种原因(lionel,你太吵了!)，所以两个钟头后就回家。。在bus上面不懂为何那么满!干!但是林北高超的睡功又发威了，站着睡!你能吗?

星期二，整天在家pia maths!这里的maths跟一中的比，简直就是没得比。。不要误会，我是说这里的实在难到爆乳!LOL! 什么taylor polynomial, power series, kernel什么tulan东西，一念就头痛。。

星期三，考试虽然在下午，可是一大清早就跑到uni哽书。。一进考场，唯一能讲的话是:冷!!! 他妈没牙! 冷倾!! 穿jacket还那么冷!吊!maths又没人性般难!(我在说出题者) 什么东西不问，就问我不大会的东西!分明跟我作对!考完试就510了，回到家就600，冲凉，吃饭，搞到来都700了!还没念到书勒!痛苦!! 念到12，眼睛张不开了。。set alarm(注意这点)，就去睡觉!

今天早上:
时间:0645-0800
地点:家
事件经过:天翻地覆，一面刷牙，一面诅咒那个alarm没有battery。。真的有够背!!!去busport，bus跟我说拜拜!到uni都八点。。干!

没有念到什么就这样(学ah bird还是不知谁)空枪上阵。。幸好有惊无险。。题目还跟以前考题很相似。。所以pass没有问题!yata!!
又要讲故事了:
时间:1000(考试其间)
地点:Winthrop hall(考试地点)
事件:考官不小心发下答案卷。。ROMBLOL!!!! 简直就笑场麻。。。可惜没有分到我这里他们就发现错了!!据说是有一个没头没脑的教官跟其他教官说那是参考资料。。。 LOL! 所以有头有脑的教官就叫每个人望天花板，望到所有answer sheet收完为止!简直就。。。


每个人在这时候都考完试了。。可是。。我还要ku着到下个星期三。。就是因为那个可恨的java!为什么不要早点!!! 但也好。。因为。。我还没动到。。GFG!!

伟达即将成为我的学弟。。有点好笑。。哈哈!!但是还是欢迎他!!

明天到底要去uni学java吗?还是在家?犹豫犹豫。。

现在去吃晚餐了!

ciaoz!!
