Haaa Pixie it actually couldn't have happened - although I made my deposit (and had my heart set on) Paris, I ended up doing a program in Milan. At first I was disappointed but I've had the most amazing summer so far - still have three weeks left - living la bella vita and all that! I'm going to Paris the weekend of the 15th when my mom comes to visit so it all worked out in the end. Not sure if I understand Pottermore. At first I thought she was saying it was like a fanfiction site exclusively for the series and then I realized, wait, that's not what she's saying. So we get to read the books online with extra features? And like a forum? Anyway I'm sure it'll be cool, whatever it is.

Heyyy guys!!!! Oh yeah, Pottermore! I agree with Hogwarts, I'm not sure what to make of it. My brother got me all hyped up and said that it was an online game like World of Warcraft, but Harry Potter styled. And then the news came out of what it actually will be and I was slightly disappointed. But like Hogwarts said, I'm sure it'll be cool. I'm currently rereading through the series, and it's so much fun! It reminded me of how much I miss Harry Potter. <3 I'm on the 5th book now; don't think I'll finish before the movie comes out because of work. But I'm planning to see it on my birthday anyway.

Ahah, I'm re-reading the books too, but on audio tape so it works a bit better with my schedule—listen in the car, while exercising, at the dentist's, yah know.
I just got early-registered for Pottermore because I'm still a nerd and still in complete denial about how busy I'm going to be this fall with thesis, work, senior reqs, etc... ah well.
Also, what did y'all think of the last movie? Of the whole "this is the end blah blah" advertising? It's weird. There went 10 years of our lives.

Randomly thought of you all and came on to see if this still existed. Wow, so surreal reading all your posts again! I feel like everyone is off doing their own things and living it up, but I'll never forget you guys! Miss you all!

Heyyyah! Another one of those random 'Oh I just remembered.....' pop-ins - still have a link to this place but can't believe this site is actually still here.... Seems like everyone else is the same! The love for HP is definitely on a low simmer these days - I should really read the books again soon though. Did sign up and got into that Pottermore thing during the beta doodah, but to be quite honest I couldn't be bothered! A flame still tickers though... I am now the proud owner of Snape's actual wand. Bought back for me as a gift across the Atlantic from Ollivanders in Potterland!! Also, very excited about going on the studio tour - not booked yet but planning to do within the next few months I now live in London town and it's well under an hours drive from where I live - maybe a HSWW reunion in Levesden Studios?!?!? Ha ha ha!! Hope you're all good Pink x

Merry Christmas (or Christmas Eve) to everybody! Too bad the guild/forum didn't last until the last movie came out (relatively) recently. Not so much into HP now but I just finally finished watching A Very Potter Musical, and plan to watch the sequel soon, so there's still something. WOW about Snape's wand Pink, that's AWESOME Is it framed or mounted somewhere xD Post a pic! And I visited London for the first time in September during the Paralympics, it was amazing Saw Matilda on the West End... Loved London! So where's everyone at?? I only just graduated from Architecture last year after six long years at uni, so I must've been slaving away at that the whole time I was in the guild. I feel like I haven't progressed much at all then =P

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all!
That's brilliant to hear Rachel. Six years is a long time to spend at Uni. I've just completed my 5th year of University. A 3 year Bachelor in Design and a 2 year Masters. Now, I'm a wee Junior Graphic Designer at Australia's most awarded design firm of 2012 (and now he's boasting... what an ass).
It is so weird thinking how long ago it was and how far people have gone with their lives; it would be interesting to hear from everyone else. How is everyone going? I want to know what people are doing with themselves.
(I'll hold back the corny comments about how HSWW had such a positive affect on me)
