What does Harry Potter mean to a 16 year old girl like me? Im in the middle of the most confusing times of my life and time seems to be flying by just as fast (if not faster) than Harry himself on his broomstick. Friends one day are enemies the next and vice versa. What makes sense this week will form into the biggest problem by next week. Homework up to my ears and then some. Marriages and divorces seem to converge and everything is a mess. So many of these events that i type about relate to the Series that JK Rowling started 13 years ago. To someone like me, Harry is a friend that never leaves. He is an ongoing memory that brings a smile to our faces along with his story. At the open of a book and the turn of a page we can be transported into a world where all the stress is lifted and the magic that we once believed was fake becomes a reality. Harry Potter is an icon. A legend. A role model. A wizard! Although I don't have money for things like a replica of the Marauders Map or the Triwizard House Cup, I have my 7 wonderful books and my imagination that makes me a Harry Potter super fan. After all, It all started with a book. When no one else is there, I can always count on Harry. Harry Potter to me, is a friend. Thanks so much for your time! ~Sarah
