Harry Potter

Finally! It's been less than three weeks to go till the release of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows". What will happen to Harry in the end of the story? Will he die or not? And what about Snape??? I am so excited! Personally I am expecting that there will be lines about Norbert the dragon (appeared in the 1st book's) in the 7th book, I am a big dragon lover like Hagrid.

Harry Potter series have a lot to do with my English study. When I was a child I loved science fictions and fantasies so much, I read Dr. Dolittle, Twenty Thousand Leagues under the Sea and hundreds of Japanese SF novels. I think learning language is similar to making myself again in another way of logic because when I think about something I use to use only Japanese language but recently I think in both English and Japanese. If a languages consists our thought, the language(words choice and way of speaking) will be our character. So when I started studying English, I wanted to produce myself in English same as I grew up in Japanese. Harry Potter series were ideal books to fill my fundamental part of English. I read all Harry Potter series(so far released) 3 times and I have been
reading aloud Harry Potter and philosopher's stone(1st book) over 30 times after Stephen Fry's audio book. I think it worked well for my English so far, but there is a problem. I am not good at TOEIC or EIKEN examinations. It's obvious, these examinations have nothing to do with hocus-pocus. I'd better try O.W.L. or N.E.W.T. lol
