crimes against humility: Carrick, Revisited →
crimesagainsthumility:
Michael Carrick is one of my favourite footballers around. I sometimes joke that he’s the Geordie Guardiola, then I realise that Guardiola may have been the Catalan Carrick. I like alliterations. Anyways, he’s come in for a huge amount of stick over the years, and I’ve felt the need to…

What do you guys think?
I see this happening a lot. For loads of people my age, in university, studying, say, sociology, it is a thing separate from themselves as people (which is of course highly ironic). It’s a subject to be mastered, facts to be...

How's JAPAN?
Japan was pretty alright, rather tiring because the sun rises and sets early, so we had to get up early, and for people like me, that was rather tough heh.
But autumn leaves are lovely, there are plenty of temples to visit, the giant Buddhas are quite breathtaking, their clothes are so so amazing (especially their boots with heels and their coats: they know how to dress so well), ate sixty...

Err I wouldn’t know because I haven’t been there and thus don’t know what cool awesome souvenirs they have haha. But if this were a question of which magical item I’d like to have from the Harry Potter world, then I’d take the Pensieve any day. And the Cloak and the Time-turner. And Gryffindor’s sword and Felix Felicis would be tied for second spot.

I started when only the first two books had been published, sometime before Primary Three: Harry Potter was hardly the phenomenon it is today. It was thoroughly amazing those two books recommended by my elder cousin, and from then on, I pre-ordered every Harry Potter book. Never in my wildest thoughts did I believe that the series which magically captured such a large part of my imagination as a...

elder wand, invisibility clock, resurrection...
Rowling sets out to make possessing two-thirds of the Deathly Hallows have a real good catch, doesn’t she? So definitely just the Cloak for me, it can do wonders all by itself anyway.

Umm I’m not sure actually, maybe my brother? He’s quite decent with directions and good company. Although I also have a verbal agreement to travel Europe with a few other friends, and I’d love to roadtrip in USA with some other people. Come to think of it, ideally, I’d travel with all my close friends/relatives, separately, going to different places. I don’t think I...
