Nice try, Dakeed, but your puzzles are way too easy. I've already figured it out and I'm going to make sure you can't

Haha about the flying class getting hit by the broom -- I was just commenting that people should be able to summon their broom by now, seeing as we're in 3rd year haha. The commentary throughout is fun though! My favorite one so far is when Penny's boggart is revealed to be a werewolf, Tonks asks wh...

Title: The Life and Death of the Great Lakes Author: Dan Egan Genre: Nonfiction Over the summer, I read seven books about various aspects of the Great Lakes, and this book was my favorite! It came out this year, so all of the information is current, and it provided a fascinating description of the h...

I love quidditch, I love the hype
but on the pitch, I just can’t type.
I try to dodge, my fingers glitch.
I type dododge, my teammates twitch.
I think I’m hitting the right keys
but all of it is typoese.
I know you think my typing’s poor -
Just wait until I practice more!

I spent the whole game thinking I was the slytherin player who scored 15 goals. Apparently I was actually the player in the bottom corner who kept running into walls. Whoops. I tried XD

The seeking sign-up date has passed! Stay tuned for the schedule which will be posted in the next day or two!

I'm playing!

I'm generally available 7pm -11pm CST, which is 1am-5am HOL time, but much more negotiable on the weekends!

Okay, hopefully there won't be (too much) terror, but we are hosting the Quidditch World Cup this year! Once again, Bulgaria and Ireland are facing off, this time for several weeks! Because seeking was so critical in their last showdown, the top Seekers from each side are also having their own tourn...

The seeking tournament is making a return for Summer 2017! In past years, the format has been as such: all participants are divided into groups of 4-5. You play each person in your group once, and the top two players in each group advance to a single-elimination tournament. We are planning to do the...

Final thoughts on Princess Bride! It was kind of exciting how he kept saying what time it was, and had the time counting down on how much time Westly had left. I really loved how everyone had their chance to be a hero. Inigo got to defeat the six-fingered man (""His eyes bulged wide, full of horror ...

I watched the Princess Bride, after finishing reading it for this month's book club. The full title of the book includes the phrase "the good parts version" and I thought the movie was the good parts version of that! Some of the backstories were cut or shortened, which was fine with me because it ke...

This chapter had so much happen! I marked my favorite parts so let's go from there: "Stupid, stupid, go wait for Vizzini with Cupid" "Dummy, dummy, go out now and fill your tummy." "dunce dunce, use your brains and do it right for once." These were great. I love Fezzik's love of rhyming. I was defin...

In these chapters, I started enjoying the quirkiness of the narrator(s). Chapter 2: I totally agree that the prince is not a pleasant person at all. How horrific just to have this zoo for the purpose of gruesomely killing things! But I have to say, I loved this bit: "Your father is dying." "Drat. Th...

I have never seen the movie, or at least not all the way through. I tried to watch it once and fell asleep, and they played it in school once and I also fell asleep >_> So I've seen bits and pieces of it, and I know some of the famous lines and such, but I don't actually know what the plot is. Maybe...

I went to see the new movie today and I loved it! I'm going to put this all behind spoilers, but I'll just say I definitely recommend it :) I thought the animation and visual effects were outstanding! I loved how the household characters like Lumiere and Cogsworth looked, and most of the movie was j...

Amy, I haven't heard of any of the games you've mentioned, but I might see if the library has them. I've been super into trying new board games too, lately! Kendra, I totally agree with you about Monopoly - sometimes I'm in the mood for it and it's tons of fun, and other times I get bored quickly. I...

Title of the book: The Handmaid's Tale Authors: Margaret Atwood Genres: Speculative fiction, dystopia This book has been on my to-read list for years and I finally decided to get around to it! I also just heard there's going to be a Hulu series based on that, so this is good timing! Summary: The sto...
