I went and saw the last Harry Potter movie premier last night with my friends. Even though the movie was fantastic, I've been really down since leaving the theater. It was a very bittersweet night for me. Harry Potter has been a major part of my life for the past ten years. I read the first book when I was 16 (because my little sister nagged me). Since then I have immersed myself in the Harry Potter world. I've been going to the midnight premiers of the films since the third one, and the midnight book sellings since the fourth one (1-3 were already out when I started reading the series). I'm really going to miss the excitement and tension that comes with waiting to find out what happens next in the story or what it's going to look like on screen. I'm going to miss the hours long conversations with my friends trying to figure out just what JK meant and what could be coming next (and of course the year or so long conversation of "who is RAB?"). I'm not very good with words, so it's very hard for me to say just how sad I am now that it's over. I'm really looking forward to JK's new site Pottermore and my trip to Hogsmeade with my friends in January (the nerdiness must live on!!), but I'm sad that the story has ended :(
