Those typos...

jejo763Oh my god! I just laughed myself silly. I'm reading this amazing H/D story, but every once in a while I happen to notice a typo that sends me rolling on the floor. Note, that I am not a native English speaker so if I notice something it usually is quite... visible.
Examples (to give you taste of those typos. Some are direct quotes):
"The event would be held in Slytherin Major..." Hmmm... So, is this a new music note that I don't know about?
"He was hopping the day would be..." Skipping, jumping, hopping. No.
"This year was defiantly going to get interesting" So, the year itself stood up and refused to be interesting despite everyone's wishes of it being one?
Quidich multiple times, actually everytime
Draco helped prepare diner. Were they building a separate house? Not actually, just fixing something to eat.
Harry's wand is holy. And we never knew that his wand was something to worship...
All of these mistakes are quite small and might happen to every one of us, but they defiantly make the reading that much more entertaining.
Sorry to the author if this offends, the story really is a great one.
