Have a fun day!

thoughts on HP5: written while listening to the book

"Better wizards than you have lost buttocks, you know." - Moody

I would want Dumbledore for my lawyer.

Moody has a spare invisibility cloak?

I love that the punishment Fred and George are 

most afraid of is that Hermione will tell 

Mrs. Weasley :)

I love that Professor Grubblyplank smokes a pipe.

Why would Malfoy think his Quidditch team 

being reinstated would have anything to do 

with influence at the ministry?

I've never thought potions sounded 

that hard. Just like trying a new recipe.

I HATE PROFESSOR UMBRIDGE!

"Harry allowed him 30 seconds of reminiscence 

before clearing his throat." (referring to Hagrid 

talking about Mdme Maxim)

I find it hard to believe that they snap your 

wand when you get expelled from Hogwarts but 

not when you're sent to Azkaban. (as in, how 

does Bellatrix still have her wand?)

"Oh, stop feeling all misunderstood."

- Hermione to Harry

Harry is such an idiot. (when he looks into 

Snape's pensieve)

"The girl sitting behind [Sirius] was eyeing 

him hopefully, though he didn't seem to have

noticed." Of course he didn't notice - she was 

sitting behind him.

Harry, don't break into Umbridge's office! 

Just use the mirror!  I don't understand how he 

could've forgotten about that. I would've 

used that thing like, everyday. 

It's so sad when Harry thinks he'll be able 

to talk to Sirius again in the mirror :(

Luna makes me so happy :)
