Lost in Pottermore

I expect everyone knows what Pottermore is, or at least have heard of it.

When I first heard of it, I wasn't too interested. Mainly because it was just too awesome. Yeah, I'm not making sense, but that's how I honestly felt. They said that only 1 million people will be chosen to enter early, but the lucky 1 million must find the magic quill first. I was stop by the site every day to just read the clues and wonder where that would lead. Nonetheless, I knew the competition to find the quill must be fierce so I didn't even bother with it. One day, on the last day of the challenge, I was googling random things about Harry Potter when I came across a site that translates what ever you type into Parsletongue or how ever you spell the snake language. I decided to check it out. Well what do you know, I came across the magic quill! So yes, I did end up getting into Pottermore early - and I am really really happy that I randomly came across it. I guess the saying is right: "If you aren't looking for it, it will come to you". The main purpose of this entree is to say how addictive Pottermore has become. I already have Twitter and Tumblr that just consumes me, but now there is also Pottermore. The best thing about Pottermore is that I can read the book a long with it and just get lost in the world of Harry Potter, something I've been dying to do since it's too late for me to enter Hogwarts. I have accomplished all my spells, but I am FAILING at potions! Currently I'm waiting for my potion to brew so hopefully this one turns out better.

Apparently the Harry Potter stars have Pottermore accounts too and they will be hanging out in the common rooms of their houses. I haven't come across any of them though, so I'm starting to doubt the rumor. One thing that I was disappointed about Pottermore is that the whole chapters are no within the site. The other thing is how every single comments are moderated so you have to wait couple days before it is posted. I also wish that the common rooms and the great hall would have a large virtual chat box where we can just all talk and connect better. It's easier that way. I understand that they are concerned about safety, but why else would there me moderators? ;) I wish that we could look around the common rooms and the great hall 3D like all the other chapters. It would also be awesome if JK Rowling could add Hogsmeade to the places we can visit.

Skool is Not Kool

I think my most common phrase is "I'm sorry, I was too busy". Even though every time I say it, I truly mean it - it seems like it has lost its meaning to many people.

Currently it is four minutes past midnight and I should probably brush my teeth and go to bed. However, I felt that I should at least finish one thing today and that is posting something on here, whether that would really make a difference to anyone else but me. You see, that's my problem. I always do things with consideration of others and never just for myself. I was raised to think selflessly that it's beyond my comprehension if I had to do something just for the sake of me. Thus, putting the whole doing something for myself once in a while act into practice, I thought I would just update this blog, just so I can at least sleep with feeling 10% accomplished.

Why was I so busy?

Well, the first monster to keep me away from my passion of drawing, painting, reading, taking pictures, being with friends and blogging was SAT. Anyone finished taking their's yet?

After that, well - obviously my AP classes. Taking three (I guess not much depending on the person) is quite a lot for me and I've been up this late studying for my AP Calculus. I don't even know why I'm taking it.

Anyways, being the usual me, I lost the will power to blog more interesting stuff half way through blogging so I'm going to use lack of sleep as an excuse and ditch.

Many apologies...if anyone even cares.

Intellectual Rant

I realized something.

I first created this blog so I can have another blog that is not like my Tumblr: xBliss where I can talk more about my daily life and thoughts instead of posting more fashion and beauty stuff. Clearly I must be into those things because instead of posting things about my uneventful life, I keep talking about the awesome luxurious things I found online and trending TV shows that I'm currently watching.

I envy those bloggers who can post once a day or once every two days about their life and thoughts. I seriously don't have enough things to talk about on my blogs and I don't know how to consistent with things like that...unless it involves fashion. Even that much I'm not THAT consistent because clearly I haven't updated this blog for a while.

After all, I did start creating blogs after watching Julie & Julia starring Meryl Streep (favourite actress!!). Julie loves writing so she decided to start a blog. I could totally relate to her love of writing. She then focused her blog mainly on cooking all the recipes of Julia, an amazing chef. I think it's the main theme that I am lacking. Obviously I subconsciously created a theme of posting about my favourite TV shows, fashion, beauty and other luxurious products. Maybe I will just stick with those themes and from time to time have these rants about random moments in life or random epiphanies I've had.

Anyways, I have to go for dinner so I'll post a bunch of stuff I've been really looking forward to blogging about!
