I've read the idea in x_disorder_x's journal, and found it downright brilliant:

160 days for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows to come out. 162 chapters written so far by J.K. Rowling.

So, if one reads the first three chapters of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone today, one only has to read one chapter per day to finish the series so far and delve into the seventh and last book absolutaly updated.

Loved the idea, and will totally do it. Thanks, Meea.

Post scriptum: Today is one of my best friend's birthday (yes, again! *grins*), deadcinderella! Happy Birthday, my dear sister, my dear Beth. Jo will always be here for you. *sings* "Just call my name, I'll be there in a hurry, you don't have to worry!" I love you.

Well, everyone is talking about it, so I figured I should just say a little bit about My Favourite Book Fair of All Time.

Bienal has always meant a lot to me. Ever since I was a kid my mother took me there, every two years. After I moved to São Paulo I started going every year, one there and one here, in Rio. There was never a Bienal that wasn't special to me in some way.

Over the past four years, they all brought excellent surprises. In 2003, I came out of the closet for the first time in my life. My confident was my best friend and future girlfriend, deadcinderella.

In 2004 I got closer to my freshly acquired friends in São Paulo, especially to hermikiller who would also turn out to be a future girlfriend.

2005 was a Rio year, and I went with my mother, my sister, deadcinderella and christycorr. One of the first times I went out with Chris, and the first weekend we saw each other every day. I guess I don't really have to explain how that turned out.

This year, 2006, I was only able to go on a Wednesday, usually a fairly calm day. Of course, I wasn't counting on the school trips to the place. I met xxxemo_girlxxx, bought only two books on Roman History, and saved the money to spend at Livraria Cultura afterwards. I had a great time, and my companion this time was my best gay friend, magnun.

I wonder if we'll ever date. *laughs*
