Harry Potter means the world to me. When I was a little kid, my mother bought me the first Harry Potter book and that's when I started to love Harry Potter. She would read me a few chapters every night before bed and did the same with the second, third, fourth and fifth. I read the last two books myself and even decider to read them in reverse order just so I could understand them even better. I've now been pretty much Potter obsessed for about 5 years, it's brilliant. Whenever I read the books or watch the films I imagine how amazing it would be if it was all real! I went to see The Deathly Hallows Part 2 just last week, I honestly don't think I've ever cried so much in my life, not just for the fact it was the last film but because Snape has always been one of my most favourite characters and I found his death to be pretty much heartbreaking. I was so happy when I bought the tickets to the last film, my best friend and I have never been so excited, I said to her that the film was like the defining moment of my childhood and I have never looked forward to something so much. I was gutted when the film finished and it hit me that there would be no more films or books to be released that I could look forward to. I've been watching all of the films over and over again for about 2 weeks now, I don't think I could ever get bored of them. It's just like I'm in my own little world. I would say that JK Rowling has me under her spell. Harry Potter is honestly the best thing in the world, the plot is amazing. As soon as I am old enough, I'm planning on getting several Harry Potter tattoos. Harry Potter is the only book series I have read over and over again, no other book can ever compare to any of the Harry Potters! It has became a big part of my life, Hermionie taught me that being clever does not make you 'uncool', it's something to be proud of. Ron taught me that it doesn't matter if your family is not as well off as others, it only matters that your family loves you and they are always there for you. Harry has taught me the most, he taught me that no matter how much of a bad past you have had it cannot stop you from being a happy, loyal, brave and strong person. I think that all of the characters can teach you something important. I don't think I will ever stop loving Harry Potter, I'm a total Potterhead. I honestly don't know what to look forward to now that the series has finished! It is so much deeper than just magic and make-believe, it's love, friendship, bravery, it's a life lesson, it's a wonderful and amazing world. It's been like an emotional journey for me and I have stuck with Harry til the end, I've dedicated most of my life to Harry and I regret nothing. Every time I watch one of the film it makes me cry, I think that JK Rowling did such an amazing thing by writing the books, she is an inspiration. All of the actors and JK Rowling did such amazing jobs at making characters that I love so much. I'd love to say thankyou to JK Rowling, she's an amazing and very talanted writer, she has made many fall in love with her books. My Harry Potter DVD boxset and my Harry Potter books are my most cherished items, I couldn't imagine going a day without reading or watching some of the films. I could write about how much I love Harry Potter for ages but to some it up, I'd really love to be lucky enough to experience the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, it would be the closest thing to magic for me. ϟ
