So am back home this week too… :P
came to attend the Foundation Day service of the Church as well as for the Holy Communion.

Studies are going fine and am faring quite well in my studies.. not much new stuff happening lately..

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix has released… thought of watching it today but its raining here… so will watch it next week. Went to the bookstore today to inquire about the Deathly Hallows release.. the shopkeeper told me that he will give me a call as soon as the company people (Penguin India) get the parcel to his store on 21st!(Only 6 days left!!) gosh am so excited!! can’t wait to get my hands on it.. The store is not offering any discount this time… so will have to get it at 975/-.

As for the torrents… Saviour King DVD (uncompressed) and DVDRip are up at CT. The uncompressed one’s size is 6.12 GB. Have started the download… it will take 2-3 days to finish… am downloading the DVDRip thing from Torent Crestin… (if I download it from CT my ratio will be destroyed :P.. anyways.. its still 5-6 hours before the DVDRip version gets downloaded fully.. will complete my assignments till then and after that will watch it :D will convert it in .mp4 and transfer it to my iPod too…

will be leaving tomorrow morning at around 7 am…

ohh… and btw… Sree bhaiya is getting me a domain name {as per him in nxt 2 days} and will be hosting it too :) updates will be made when I come home nxt weekend!

till then c ya! and God Bless!!

I hate Cornerstore..

June14

Ever since I had come home for the vacations I had abandonded my mobile phone as it was out of balance.. used to use the landline to make call to my pals. Turned it on today to top up the prepaid card. First thing I noticed was that I had quite a large no. of miss calls from the guy who runs the Cornerstore Bookstore here. I had pre-ordered the last HP book from him. I called him up and he said that he was cancelling the pre-order as not many people were interested in pre-ordering it from him. To be honest, I wasn’t either.. but it so happened that I visited the mall where the store is located, saw the Deathly Hallows poster and pre-ordered it…

Well.. this was the second time he has ditched me.. he did something quite same when Half Blood Prince was releasing.. So I went to the store thats behind Mayura Hotel and pre-ordered it today. The owner told me I can pick my copy on 21st July at around 2 pm. But I will be in college then.. so will come home that weekend specially to read Deathly Hallows :D

psst : a niece of mine cleared the pre-med entrance exam for CMC, Ludhiana :) am so happy for her

Deluxe US ‘Deathly Hallows’ cover art released!

June8

Deathly Hallows

Scholastic has released the cover art for the deluxe edition of the American Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

David Saylor, Vice President, Creative Director, Scholastic described the art: “Set during a highly dramatic sunset, Harry, Hermione, and Ron–clothes in tatters–cling atop a flying dragon in this astonishing artwork created by Mary GrandPré for the deluxe edition. As mist creeps down towering hillsides to a village below, questions arise about where the trio is headed and what has led them to this spellbinding moment.”

The cover art looks good but I like the UK childrens cover more :) have already pre-ordered my copy from local bookstore.
