I was going to start blogging again—maybe even two posts a day!—but my copy of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J.K. Rowling just got delivered!
Unlike Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, for which I had to wake up early and line up for two years ago in Manila, all I had to do this time in Toronto was order the new one online—several months ago—and have it delivered on the first day of its release.
Unfortunately, I made some errors in ordering, so I didn't think I'd get it on the first day of release. When the delivery boy arrived, I was actually expecting another book (related to my dissertation), which led to my disappointment because the box was smaller than I thought it would be (meaning that I got the wrong book), and was even wondering why it had been sent in an Amazon box.
Well, I opened the box half-heartedly, saw that Rowling's new book was in it, and knew that everything I planned to do this weekend would have to wait until after I read the whole book.
Enough. I have a book to read =)
