I have followed Harry Potter since I was 11. My friends and I grew up with the books, and the characters. Last night at the premier, it felt as if our childhood had ended. We just graduated and Harry Potter has had since an influence in our life. This would mean so much to me. Harry Potter taught me to love reading and use creativity. For instance, I used to have an RPG Harry Potter site (hermioneshogwarts.com) which no longer exists. But for the site I would write Harry Potter fan fiction and encourage others to as well. It really helped me to improve my writing. Harry Potter will always be apart of my life.
