There's an essay I have to write. Usually I hate writing essays but this time I've found something good in it. If not for the essay, my school would start at 8 am. Fortunately, the teacher promised we don't have to attend the lessons as long as we are working on the essay. That means my school starts at 10 am, so I do have the time to run to the nearest book shop (which opens at 9 am) and see if they're already selling The Children of Húrin.
Of course, it's possible, and even probable, that they haven't received the book so early in the morning, but it's nicer to imagine that I could be among the first people in Finland to get a copy.
