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...

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...

Title of the book: A Dog's Purpose: A Novel for Humans Authors: W. Bruce Cameron Genres: Fiction for animal-lovers This book is coming out as a movie in January, and the trailer made me cry, so I was really interested in reading the book. The story is told from the point of view of a dog, which, as ...

I didn't know anything about Pokemon until Aly convinced me to download Pokemon Go and I've been obsessed with it the past few weeks! I joined Team Valor, but I don't really understand how you do the battles haha. I tried one so far and basically just watched all my pokemon die. My favorite pokemon ...

I used to love The Amazing Race and The Biggest Loser. And once upon a time, I used to watch The Apprentice and For Love or For Money with my mom. Other than that, I hardly keep up with any shows, reality or non-reality. I watch clips of Dancing with the Stars every now and then though, and they're ...

HOL says it's 2:17 pm and here it's 8:17am. I just woke up not too long ago, and I'm sitting in my rocking chair thinking about what I want to have for breakfast and deciding whether I want to head into the office early or work on things at home for a little. And stressing a little about what to do ...

My favorites are "He's Just Not That Into You," "Dirty Dancing," and "Silver Linings Playbook." Maybe I'll watch all of them today! Or maybe I'll watch some that I've never seen before.

And The Notebook - I've only seen it once, but I loved it!

What are some of your favorites musicals? It's really hard for me to pick mine - I always end up with a list of like 15 if I try to start naming them. The ones I worked on in high school - Les Miserables, Beauty and the Beast, Thoroughly Modern Millie, and Wizard of Oz - will always have a special p...

I don't know about anyone else, but I almost forgot this was coming out until a couple weeks ago. It's been about 5 years since I read the books, but I still wanted to go see it. I think overall, the excitement has just sort of worn off. I hardly remember the book at all, so I can't even compare it ...

OMG YES!!! I'm so obsessed too! I've listened to it at least like 20 times by now, and I still notice a new line each time. I was listening at work and started cracking up at "Should we honor our treaty, king louie's head? Uh do whatever you want, I'm super dead!" Tried to explain to my coworkers, n...

Hello! I'm Arielle Lemoyne, 7th year Ravenclaw! The other classes I'm taking this term are Confronting Your Boggart, Disney Studies: The Classics, Famous Magical Equines, and Marvellous Musical Theatre - Act 1. In real life, I'm just starting a masters program in Natural Resources and Environmental ...
