<p>Ok what happens is Harry ends up going to the worst jail in the US... He has a choice of whether to go to Joliet Penetentiary or yes, you know it, Baltimore county jail, the worst jail system of them all. </p>

<p>Unfortuantely, Potter discovers CC and doesn't do anything else because he is too freightened about getting into Schrodinger U., the finest UNiversity in all the land. So, nothing happens to him and the book chronicles his troubles as he studies for the SATs, wins major awards, and eventaully, starts a non-profit organization to help with tsunami relief. Unfortuanately, Potter does not get in to Schrodinger and he is depressed and claims he nees to take a year off....</p>

<p>Overall, Harry's adventure through college admissions was great and I loved how the Half-Blood Prince was used as a metaphor for college admissions.</p>

<p>the book looks boring. my friends and i bought it as a joke (laughed at the people who were dressed up) but i was hoping that my 18 dollars would at least be well spent.</p>

<p>For some that's just a small price to pay...</p>

<p>OMG, do you have no heart!? Now I have no reason to read it :(</p>

<p>got the book today from the bookstore :)</p>

12

<p>ummm i dressed up for hp....it was awesome</p>

13

<p>I dressed up in my almost entirely hand made Hermione costume (including wand) and dressed my parents and a friend up as well. My mom went as Trelawney, my dad as a ministry wizard, and my friend borrowed a Hogwarts sweater and scarf. It was really fun, and I ran into so many people that I knew. The activities were basically all for little kids, though there were the two most adorable house elves ever there, complete with butterbeer and SPEW sign. They won the costume contest. It was fun overall, but the packed bookstore was really hot! I was about 10th or so in line for my book, but by the time I got home and started reading, it was 12:45. I read it entirely, though I took a nap about 150 pages from the end. In all, I think it took me 9 hours.</p>

14

<p>im still waiting for my book. i ordered it online from barnes and noble several days ago and it still isnt here. apparently something's wrong with the UPS. :(</p>

<p>hopefully it'll come tomorrow...</p>
