Harry Potter on CD

My Favorite Things #17/365

One day I was listening to the radio as I was driving in my car. I realized that while I liked some songs that played, most of the songs on the radio did not interest me. This is when I decided to start listening to Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince on CD. It is great! Jim Dale is a fantastic reader and, of course, JK Rowling is a fantastic writer! I finished it much quicker than I planned (I wanted to finish it right when the movie came out, which doesn't happen until July!) so I started listening to the seventh book. I'm over half way done with that now. Next, I think I will listen to LOTR on CD. I love reading books, but sometimes, like when you are driving or cleaning your room, you can't read, so it is a great alternative to listen to the books, at least I think so!

I think LOTR would be much easier to 'read' if I listened to it!

I love listening to the Harry Potter tapes/CDs. I plan on putting some of the books on my iPod.

Tom and I got the Hobbit, and the first two parts of the LOTR books on CD. We still need to get the last one.

Steph, if you do buy it, make sure to get the unabridged version!

Day 21 - Class, Louvre, FHE

Class was good today. I had French 102 and Religion. Not bad. After that, I headed to the Louvre with Haley and Chelsea. I didn't bring my SLR with me because it wouldn't fit, so I took my point and shoot. Wow. What a difference. I knew I loved my SLR, but not I really love my SLR! I didn't take any good pictures, but I'll tell you that I did see Charles I Dismounted by Van Dyck. That was pretty exciting. I love to see paintings that I recognize. After we chilled at the Louvre for a while, we headed out (well, we lost Chelsea and found Richard) to the Ricks' place. We were a little early so we went to see the Eiffel Tower. We saw it all lit up. It was pretty awesome. Then off to the Ricks'. We played a charade-type game for FHE and it was a lot of fun. I really enjoyed myself. And I was able to use their super fast internet to update my blog. So it all worked out well and it was a good night! PS Thanks to those of you who have been able to post comments. I reall...

Day 54 - Dernier Jour

Last day in Paris! I can't believe it. I'm sure gonna miss this place. Ali, Shamra, Mckell, Claire and I headed out to the city this morning. First stop was the Opera house. I finally got to see the inside this time! Beautiful. We had some fun :) Then we went to Berko's, the wonderful cheesecake place. It wasn't open and it was 11:35. We thought they wouldn't open until 12 but as we were sitting there waiting, they opened the doors! Yay! I got creme brulee cheesecake. Oh it was divine. This is one of the things I will miss most about Paris! Love it. Then Claire and I went to the Jewish museum. It was pretty interesting. I couldn't take many pictures. Then off to the Promenade Plantee. It was a really beautiful walk. I like this flower. It's weird. Then we walked back to the metro. It was quite a long walk so we were very tired! We went to the Louvre for a little internet time. Afterward, we went to Laudree to get a present for Greg and Martha. Then back to t...
