NATALIE McDonald, who appears on page 159 of Harry Potter And The Goblet Of Fire, was a real person. She was a nine-year-old girl from Toronto, Canada, who was dying of leukaemia. She wrote to JK Rowling asking what was going to happen in the next Harry Potter book as she would not live long enough to read it. The kindly author emailed back, but Natalie had died a day earlier. In tribute, she became a first-year student at Hogwarts named by the Sorting Hat in Gryffindor - the house for the brave at heart - in the fourth book. When Rowling was later in Canada for a promotional tour she visited the McDonald family.

How do you love someone more when you think you’ve loved them at the maximum level already?

Dziś mamy Dzień Flagi. Cokolwiek nowe święto ale mamy tak mało pozytywnych świąt. :) Mamy też Dzień Polonii i Polaków za Granicą więc wszytkiego najlepszego dla naszych rodaków na całym świecie :)
Today we have Flag Day in Poland. Quite new holiday but we have so few positive holidays :) We have also Day of Polish Diaspora and Poles Living Abroad so all the best for countrymen all over the world. :)

So last night I had a dream that they were streaming the election but I overslept and missed it and it was literally the worst thing that ever happened to me.

Omg i would be like….what is my life worth now!?!?MK!!

Worse still, in my dream, Yuko got 5th. 5TH. I’d be fucking pissed if I  missed a plot twist like that.

In my dream I was watching election and Miichan got 40th.

AKB二期生、4月1日で7周年ってことで…集まりました(^^)♡みんなくる予定が、なんだかんだでなっち、優子、佳代ちゃん、なっつみぃ、恵令奈、わたしの6人になっちゃったけどいろんな想い出話しに花が咲きました。久しぶりに笑い転げた。

AKB 2nd Generation had our 7th anniversary on the 1st April so we all got together (^^)♡ We all planned to meet up but in the end it was Nacchi, Yuko, Kayo-chan, Nattsumi, Erena and I, the 6 of us. We talked about our memories, and I laughed so hard. 

My favourite generation ever (≧∇≦)/
