Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
I thought through on Fri’s night in bed why I have been complaining that I’m not ready for the trip, with things unprepared etc.
原来我指的是心理准备。
I’m mentally unprepared.
虽然我知道迟早都要把100%都“打包”带出国。
According to me, being mentally unprepared means 80% of my “stuff” are still outside of the luggage.
还有担心、
还有害怕、
还有想念、
还有依赖。
所以那行李箱永远只装满20%...其它的,还徘徊在行李箱的边缘。
Went downstair de clinic for a jab on Sat morning. The new doc looks so young…lol. Well, he was like trying to coax a patient while doing the jab, still talking to me…I know…diverting attention mah! Haha.
Sat evening met 4-in-love and we went Pat’s house. 1st time there…her mum very nice…treated us to wonderful home-cooked dishes! Too bad I dun like cooked cabbage…but the soup yummy! *Haiz…I shld learn to appreciate my mum’s cooking too.* Later discussed about what to bring with Pat…finally got a list. *Ppl, my handwriting’s terrible!*
Then, we took bus to Serangoon Tiamo Dessert Café. Ambience nt too bad…the 2nd flr “pub” was quite cosy. We ordered some desserts and side-dishes…like the Finger Egg Mayo sandwiches and the cheese one which I didn’t dare eat. Too bad our seats there de lighting a bit too dark, was having a hard time doing those psychological tests…as well as laughing! *Pat & WZ’s laughter almost“响彻云霄”liao~* Each person ard $7 nia…kinda cheap.
Pat & HL took bus, me and WZ took the NEL train. Piang, when we reached Outram, got announcement said last train, then lights started to gone out! Seeing that Boon Lay’s last train arrived, me and WZ pia~ haha… in the end almost forgotten that WZ is take towards Pasir Ris de train…LOL. When the train came JE, still got train gg towards Marina Bay leh! *PHEW~caught last train.*
Spent the whole Sat afternoon finished reading HP book 7. Guess many of the HP fans have already wrapped up the book; well I have just finished my last bite.
Wonderful dish.
This time round, I missed the Hogwarts day…the lessons at school and the “less-than-life-threatening” adventures all along. The start of this book is already filled with dangers, the trio being put into a big, big maze that tested their bravery and intelligence. I love the水落石出towards the end…how I read Snape was in fact a hero…Dumbledore talking to Harry at King’s Cross… of course how Harry“酸”that brainless Voldemort in their duel. Rowling even wrote Harry’s life 19yrs later…with Ginny and his 3 children. Ah… it’s like the start of another adventure again that we readers wouldn’t know while Albus embark on his journey to Hogwarts. But again, it would be useless to continue on it since we already love Harry’s life so much.
The fact that wizards can “save” their memory, more than simply photos, fascinates me a lot. It’s a pity this is reality, we could only recall what’s happened in the past. What if one day memory fails me? It would be nice if I could store those happy memories I’ve experienced since my younger days.
Knowing that this is the last book (ah…I don’t really read any other English fictional series), I laughed, frowned, panicked with the story. Of course, not forgetting that I’m touched at some points. Can’t rmb many exact, meaningful quotes but since I came across this chunk today, shall quote it here:
“You’ll stay with me?”
“Until the very end,” said James.
“They won’t be able to see you?” asked Harry.
“We are part of you,” said Sirius. “Invisible to anyone else.”
Harry looked at his mother.
“Stay close to me,” he said quietly.
This part is so touching…when you have your closest kin in the world by your side, close to you; you feel the strength to overcome anything and everything.
I thought of the song lyrics I wrote last time and posted here before. HL asked me who I wrote it for? A girl or guy? Well, now I guess the song’s for Harry, a guy.
The lyrics?
They meant what James, Lily, Sirius, Lupin and all that loved Harry wanted to say to him.
And Yes,
Harry fought strong, a beautiful battle won.
You Have Me
It’s not the end of the world
Your heart was never so brittle
The sun went down
And all things were against you
You can fight no more
Well I see the pain you’re going through
The more I look at you
Rain falls hard on you
Friends turn to foes
You can take it no more
But didn’t you know
CHORUS:
You have me standing on your side
You have me with you through the night
No matter how high the tide maybe
So what if you don’t see the light
You have me so now you just cry
You don’t have to hide
You just got to try
A little setback you get so upset
It’s not the end of your life
The heart is drowned
And all hopes are lost
You lose the will to fight
Well I see the pain you’re going through
The more I look at you
In the winter out in the bitter cold
Did you know
(CHORUS)X2
The more I look at you
The more I wanna say
You have me
all your life
