| Stockbridge/Boston and Harry Potter Book 6/7 |
[Jul. 17th, 2007|03:56 am] |
So I'm back from Stockbridge and Boston which was an amazing experience for the most part. Highlights include meeting Randy Harrison OMGYAY and seeing him twice perform stunningly in a play I love, meeting some awesome QaF fangirls, karaoke featuring singing, dancing, group songs and romantic QaF music, walking the Freedom Trail in Boston and watching QaF vids with fellow vidders. It was so much fun! Only bad was I had a bit of transportation trouble on the way home but thankfully I only made it home a few hours later than I expected. I will make a longer post about the trip tomorrow. For now I've read all my Flist and will try to catch up with commenting tomorrow.
I used the time traveling today to read the entire 6th Harry Potter book. I had forgotten a lot since I've only read it once when it first came out. Now I regret that since there's so little time left before the 7th and it's making me sad that this is it in terms of canon. I wish I had been a bit more involved in HP fandom, it is a once in a lifetime experience and it's now approaching the end of an era. Hary Potter was the first fandom I was ever in and where I read my first fanfic so this is big for me. I will say that it made me love Dumbledore all the more and his relationship with Harry. I am deathly afraid of spoilers for the 7th book as I'm definitely waiting until Friday night to read the book. But I cannot avoid my Flist or LJ so I beg everyone, I plead (yes, 6th book reference there) with you to not spoil me or anyone else in any way and always put spoilers for the book under a cut tag clearly stating it as book 7 spoilers. I trust my Flist so hopefully nothing bad will happen there. I am very, very sad that someone actually uploaded it. Is nothing sacred anymore?
To end on a better note, one of my favorite Dumbledore quotes: "Ah, music, a magic beyond all we do here." |
