So, I've started listening to the HP audiobooks.

• Stephen Fry is amazing!


• A book I've read many times before sounds entirely new!


• I'm only beginning to appreciate Harry's unique viewpoint and way of describing things now.


• ... I'm surprised Harry made it out of #4 mostly untraumatized.

Tomorrow I need to start asking people about going onto their roofs, because fear of not graduating is beginning to exceed fear of rejection. I think, after enough failures, like in Bioshock, I won't be afraid anymore.

Cleaning out the inbox:

THE RULES:
(Thank Alina for all the funny parts.)

1) No breaking things
Or we will break you.

2) No making babies
There are enough ugly people in the world.

3) No going outside and making very loud noises
Or bad things will happen! (Like the parents of the three year old children next door will be
very angry. Or decide to call the police.)

4) You may not throw up (or by extension pass out)
If you look like you don't know what you're doing, people will be sent to monitor your
drinking.

5) No guests
Sorry, but this includes your boyfriend, your girlfriend, your best friend, even your favorite
sibling. Let's face it, they'd be lost amongst the Calculus jokes anyway.

6) Only grade 11s, 12s, and alumni are invited
The grade nines get more action than all of us anyway, let's not publicly embarrass
ourselves in their presence. And the grade tens will be busy thinking about who will go to
Pinecrest.

7) NO DRUGS
I'm looking at you......cough

8) No hanging out in the front yard
There will be a big backyard - enjoy it. But in the front yard, other people can actually see
you. Let them live with the illusion that they live on a very quiet, peaceful dead-end street.

9) You must, at some point, thank Alex's parents for letting you party at their house
Preferably before you lose the ability to make sentences

10) Know how you are getting home!!! (We mean this. My parents already have to stare at 2 dopey-eyed teenagers every morning, they really don't want to deal with 50.)
You will be in North York people, far from civilization - but everyone is expected to
vamoose around 1:30. So:
- Ask people who live near Alex to house you if necessary
- Rides are recommended
- Remember that the Subway at Finch- Eglinton closes at
roughly 12:00 am due to tunnel maintenance
