May have already been delivered to my place of residence. Sadly I took the entire week (and both weekends) off for Thanksgiving! Which means I won't be home to see if it has come until december 1st....I guess this will gaurentee my return to the real world, right?
Things that I have learned in the HSKS6:
So here is a question for you all out there...I had to wake up extremely early to finish a bit of homework (a rather large bit of homework, actually). And as I sit here, with it still dark outside, my cup of coffee and my mouth apparently wanting to catch some sort of insect, I wonder about in the HP books, when they wake up early to finish homework....how do they do it without an alarm clock? I'm not even going to touch the question of how do they get alert enough to do the work without coffee, but seriously, no alarm clocks? How on earth do they do it!
Firstly that Tom Riddle showed contempt for what made him ordinary, like his name. Second that he did not have friends and was independent; Dumbledore does not believe Voldemort has ever had... or wanted... a friend. Thirdly that Tom liked to collect "trophies" and objects that were somehow unique and special.
#2 What did Merope sell when she was alone in London before the baby was born?
The locket that once belonged to Salazar Slytherin. Pity she only got ten Galleons for it.
#3 What does Mrs Cole like to drink?
Her beverage of choice is gin.
#4 What does Tom Riddle demand Professor Dumbledore do twice when they first met?
Tom insists twice that Dumbledore tell him the truth. The first time he is yelling; the second time, he appears to be slightly more in control of himself.
He also asks Dumbledore to do magic and Dumbledore demonstrates by lighting the wardrobe on fire.
#5 What did Mundungus nick from the Black house?
The locket Regulus had Kreacher steal, amongst other objects that are not specifically mentioned other than being "Black heirlooms", according to Phineas.
