Summerknight Personally I don't mind spoilers too much, as long as it isn't a huge synopsis of the book and a blow-by-blow account. It is more the whole story put together which makes a book good for me. And if so many characters are going to die, then I'd almost prefer to know beforehand so I don't cry as much.
Even though I love books that make me cry... crying
I'm right there with you on that one. I like to be warned about who dies. One in particular was a rude shocke to me...

 Fate made us sisters,....The fifth book I think was the best so far because it really helped me make my predictions firmer. I keep arguing with my brother because he thinks half the things I am wrong about and end up proving him wrong in the end though rofl
Books don't really make me cry, nothing like that does. I don't attach myself to characters though so maybe that helps. I almost got to start the 6th book, but once I wanted to read it my brother said no, but my mom said yes because he was doing something else. Just so I couldn't read it he read some of it. Gah.... it makes me mad that he did that though because I could finish it before him and then he wouldn't have to be bothered by me.
I think it is also silly when people read the end of the book with no intention of reading the series though. Yesterday I saw people at Wal-mart reading the ending. It ruins the entire point of the book I think. ....but love made us friends.

Wow.... One year for a thread and I was here from the start... That is crazy... Absolutely crazy... wahmbulance
Thank you Elie for hosting it for so long! heart
I have annoying news... No, not Harry Potter news, but real life news... I rang up a telephone number that the government has created which tells you about your rights and stuff in the work place and it turns out that I have been getting less than the minimum wage all the time I have been working at my current job (which has been almost two years now). I did a few calculations and I'm owed at least $3,300. eek
So now I have to go through the process of asking my employer for back pay and if they don't give it to me I have to write a letter of demand and if that isn't complied with then the government will come in and investigate.
So tomorrow I'm heading in for work and I'm going to photocopy my time sheets (just in case they all go 'missing', not that they should, but I'm going to try to be prepared just in case anything happens) and we'll see what happens.
The annoying thing is that it is my sister's school friend's mother's business and I feel like the trust I had in her has been completely eroded as I feel she took advantage of me as it was my first job and I didn't know the process.
Anyway... wish me luck. I might be looking for a new job in the near future. sad
EDIT: What is the new Tsubasa item? I'm not in the US or Canada so I can't take the quiz and can't get the item.

I've hardly gotten near my book, since my boyfriend is always reading it, I'm on like chapter 6 and he's all most finished it stare
I don't like to know people die in books, it just ruins the whole thing, and when you actually get to that page you're like "Never mind, I knew that was going to happen" but this one did make me cry, even in the few chapters that I have read.

Thank you Angelgirl for the gogglies!!! heart
I spoke to my boss and she said she didn't realise that she was underpaying me and that she was very sorry. She was very good about the whole thing and she is going to probably talk to someone to get it confirmed or whatever, but hopefully it'll all be worked out soon and I can get my money...
However, if the current wage I'm entitled to is the correct one, then she says she'll have to cut back my time as she can't afford me... Ah well... That doesn't bother me that much. I'll look for a new job soon anyway and at the moment it gives me more time to read!
Money, money, money!!! cheese_whine

Fate made us sisters,.... That's good Summer. At least she didn't throw a fit about it or anything and that you will be able to get your money. Sad she'll be cutting your hours, but oh well. Yeah for more reading time ^o^
I finished the 6th Harry Potter book last night, I almost did cry >< when I finished it. Now I am just waiting for the perfect time to steal the 7th from my brother and read it xd ....but love made us friends.
