...again. I'm not cut out for this.
I had a French speaking exam the other day. It actually wasn't as bad as I thought, and now we get to watch Cyrano de Bergerac in lessons. Bonus. We should do this more often.
The most amazing thing happened on Saturday. I was in Game, looking for COD 4 as you do, (if you MUST know, my brother got an Xbox for Christmas and needed someone who is older than 16 to buy that game for him. Don't worry, I haven't converted to the Dark Side) and my brother spotted a blue, rectangular box just sitting on the shelf in the PC section. It took me a few seconds to realise what he was pointing at. I picked up the box, and who would have thought it? The Harry Potter PC collection, the first three games, all for £10! Well, I knew that was a deal that I couldn't pass up, so after borrowing a tenner from Dad I went to the till to pay. I don't know if the woman at the till underchared me, or if the price was wrong on the box, but somehow I managed to get it for only £4.99! I have in my possession the first three Harry Potter computer games, and I only paid £4.99! This is my childhood, right here in this box! I feel about 8 again.
I still believe that there was an admin error that meant I didn't get my owl inviting me to Hogwarts. Even Dumbledore makes mistakes.
Other than reminiscing about my incredibly sad and lonely childhood, I haven't done much this week. Well, nothing that I can remember right now anyway. Guess I'll just go and correct the spelling mistakes in the Radio Times while casting a flippendo spell at Argus Filch.

There are spelling mistakes in the Radio Times? That's why you love it so much isn't it...?
ReplyDeletehaha me and Joey may be the only people reading these but it makes me laugh so much and I can't help by laughing out loud at your posts, George. And smiling wide with my mum looking at me with a weird look on her face and then asking 'What are you smiling at, Rebecca? You haven't got a boyfriend I don't know about do you?' No mum...
Anyway. I love your George's Ramblings. And £4.99! BARGAIN!
I like that you guys are the only people, I write to myself really. Hah, my mum doesn't even think enough of me to have a secret boyfriend. If I'm smiling at the computer, all she says is "Georgia, you're not watching funny videos of cats again are you?" And yes it is a bargain! I'm so happy!
ReplyDeleteThe pictures from Zoe's party are uploading right now, by the way :)
I'm sorry if I meddlingly interrupt, because you wrote yourself that you are writing to specific people only, but I sidetracked here from Rebecca's blog (apologies again). Only, the thing that pertubed me as a bit of a Pothead was that the revered Dumbledore ought to have passed quite some time before you were eligible for entrance to Hogwarts, if I'm not mistaken. Which would of course then explain the missing owl (I wish I could claim the same excuse, but as a foreigner...), since anybody else would be far more prone to fumbles.
ReplyDeleteHmm, I hadn't thought of that. That's a very good point, I should have known that poor Dumbledore's death will have thrown a spanner in the works. And don't worry, you are not meddlingly interrupting. Thanks for stopping by :)
