Potter-Mania

Withing hours of the announcement of the release date for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, it became a #1 bestseller on every bestseller list for the first time in literary history. Amazon.com reports they have over 2 million pre-orders for DH and expect to get more as we get closer to the release date. DH became #1 on New York Times bestseller's list, selling more than all of the top ten combined - all of that in a matter of hours. This will possibly be one of the most influential book releases in history. Millions of copies have been printed and sent off to book stores; 12 million, actually. And that's in english-speaking countries alone. So don't try and argue with me that this isn't a big deal.





This is my receipt for my pre-order... read below; you'll understand.

I have had my copy pre-ordered since March 9th. And I, like many other crazed fans, will be waiting in line to be one of the first people in Canada to set their hands on a copy of DH - then immediately after that I will be sitting in a car for a 20 hour ride out west. Yes, I am leaving on a 2 week vacation to British Columbia, and the Harry Potter Midnight Gala will be the kickoff to an adventure across the country. I will have everything I need to keep me occupied on the road. I made my mum stop by the Asian Grocer today to pick up some last-minute snacks for the way there. Although it will take us 3 days to get to BC.
Here are some of the asian junk food I'm bringing!;


This is all of them together



This stuff is called Hi Chew; it is like taffy... but strawberry flavored. It's really good!!



These are called Kinoko. They're these chocolate mushrooms with hazelnut pieces inside. So tasty, even if it's 100000 calories per bite.



Pocky! Everyone knows and loves Pocky! It's like a cookie stick dipped in chocolate!



And these are really good too. They're a hard candy called Litchi Candy, I got raspberry flavored. Who can live without Asian junk food?

Also - I got some Milkis, which is a Korean beverage, it's carbonated milk, but it's in the fridge right now - getting cooled down so it's better!
