"I can teach you how to bottle fame, brew glory, even stopper death — if you aren't as big a bunch of dunderheads as I usually have to teach."
As I'm sitting here at my computer trying to think of just one topic on Snape I think about starting at the beginning. I absolutely love the quote for this blog, and with many schools starting this past month there are a lot of teachers out there who may appreciate this quote as well. Whenever you embark on a journey of...

Right, so, the movie being moved from November till July – was I upset? Sure. But I chose to gloss over it, cause I don't like complaining about stuff (I needed you to know that before you kept reading...). I’d wait, of course I would, I knew the end product would be amazing! But of course, I was expecting Half-Blood Prince. So what the bleep is this movie that’s allegedly being released in its name?! (Don’t read on if you do not want to know any details from the screening reports. I haven’t read it all myself but it will...

I've literally just read the first chapter of The Catcher in the Rye, a book I've never read before and decided to pick it up in my local bookstore after a couple of videos from the vlogbrothers on YouTube made my mind for me.

I went to the bank yesterday to pay some Leaky bills (joy) and met Kingsley! Seriously, his name is Kingsley, and I was so delighted to meet someone named that, that he couldn’t stop laughing. Plus, he was a gentleman and had the same deep voice I imagine Kingsley to have. Thought you all would like to know. He was amused when I asked to take his picture:
It’s an undercover ministry assignment for sure. ;P

Hey guys, I’m sorry it’s been a while… School started this week again and teachers have been pummelling us year elevens with the knowledge that our mocks are in January! Anyway, I’m back now, thanks to Sunday being my only free day, and I’d like to talk about Wormtail! OK, It’s a given that I am not Peter’s biggest fan to have ever walked the planet, so this’ll probably be the most biased blog I have ever created but I am going to talk about why he broke off from his Gryffindor roots to become a slightly less than faithful...

It was just a rumor... but now it's sounding more and more credible. The buzz on the Who forums is all about how Paul McGann, a.k.a. the Eighth Doctor, the one who only did the TV movie (and a lot of audio adventures), is going to be featured in one of the specials to be shown in 2009. It's not been confirmed so it's still just a rumor - it just sounds more credible now than it did before. I still don't know how I feel about this. On the one hand... it could be neat to find out more...
