imagination runs wild!!

Finally, in the sixth book, harry has become mature signifying the end of innocence and miserable days with the dursleys. He doesn’t need to tolerate bull shit from anyone anymore-be it the new minister of magic, malfoy or even kreacher.

Rowlings imagination has yet again conjured an engrossing story of voldemort’s childhood, snape’s “deceit”, or the horcruxes. The horcruxes finally explain the reason behing volemort’s “immortality”.

The snogging parts are interesting and so are dumbeldore’s memories of voldemort in his penseive.voldemort and harry, though both being half-blood orphans, have very different attitudes towards themselves as well as others.harry believes in love, trust and friendship. Tom riddle on the other hand, fears death more than anything else and has no friends.a striking contrast between two people so intricately linked by an age-old prophecy.

Though the half-blood prince has been well-plotted, I think the story has some loop holes too.if you all remember, its mentioned in one of the chapters that the half blood prince’ potions book was about 50 years old and thus it was clearly concluded that the book could not have belonged to harry’s father or any of his batchmates. So how could it belong to snape, who obviously was in the same batch as james potter?!!?

Anyone who would have read the half-blood prince with some logical interpretation will surely agree with me that a wise guy like dumbledore, the man who voldemort feared the most would never plead for his life to a “deceiver” snape. People like dumbledore don’t fear death..infact that was the main difference between voldemort and dumbledore as rowling has been telling us in the last 5 books. Also, dumbledore being such an intelligent and been there-done that kind of guy who has been offered the post of minister of magic so many times, would surely be having a solid reason for trusting snape..even if the entire hogwarts’s staff didn’t trust him, even if he had been a death eater, even if he had had a hand in harry’s parents killing, and even if harry had never trusted him-dumbledore’s favourite student?? An old man’s mistake? I don’t think so!!

I somehow feel that dumbledore asked snape to kill him to maintain snape’s trust in front of the other death eaters including malfoy. Why? Maybe coz then snape could somehow find out the location of the remaining horcruxes and destroy them. Does anyone buy this?

To know all these answers, we would have to have another long 2 year break for the final book of the harry potter series.

Personally, on a ten point scale I would rate the half-blood price a 7/10.

But hey, does anyone have any idea what R.A.B stands for??

movies, meetings and a mundane classes

With no studies and exams for the time being..its time to catch up with the latest movies. I recently went to see SARKAR, a RGV film.The movie,otherwise engrossing and ek-dam value for money, had some confusing parts.

I don’t understand how a single person(i.e subhas nagre), having no political position whatsoever, could manage to influence an ENTIRE CITY!!??
I mean come on, aren’t we a little bittle out of touch with reality?fine, he does public ka bhalla nd all that, but which public ka bhalla karne walla banda brings about justice by catching hold of people in the middle of the road and beating them left right and centre?? Would it be fair to call it anarchy mumbaiya ishtyle?He he!

Smita was over at my place recently..after an invitation extended to her for the first time ever.well, the time for her to arrive was set to 11 am the day before her arrival..but madame “punctual” smita arrived a good 1.5 hrs late nd that too fully drenched!!

The day went off well, we played videogames, ate lunch, saw photos and then went to café coffee day to eat chicken pizza and chococcinos.

I am really really missing school these days..teachers, friends and damn it, even the M.T s and morning assemblies!! It was soooo much fun…making friends, mocking some teachers, mass bunking boring maths classes and a little bit of studying here and there!!!

Talking of maths classes, I can’t help recalling our class XII maths periods with Ms ghosh. I fail to remember a single maths class in our f block FF class room which wasn;t accompanied by a very punctual chipkali crawling out from behind the black board,at the precise moment when ms ghosh would be facing us to explain a question to a usually mundane class.Eager to break the monotony, some students us used to point at the lizard and shriek out – “MA’AM CHIPKALI!!!” Poor ms ghosh, thinking that we were pointing towards her obviously thought that we had all finally decided upon “chipkali” as her nick name and had no qualms acceptiNg it in front of her!! What followed after this gasp of hysteria is anyone’ s guess!oh gosh..she must have had a horrible yr dealing with us. All apologies from us…

Well, I think I have finally landed upon an interesting topic to write abt…TEACHERS!! So next post..how teachers turn to pinnochios? Any wild guesses? ;-)
