I am geeking out. It seems as if, throughout my entire life, Harry, Ron, and Hermoine have been right there with me. We've enjoyed long quidditch matches, endless romantic debacles, and a series of attempts to slay the dark lord. I still remember the day that I recieved my invitation to Hogwarts via owl (it was a dream, but, still). Somehow, Harry Potter has integrated its way into my life and there is no spell in the wizarding world that could undo that. As we grow closer and closer to the penultimate movie, my heart breaks as I know what is coming. Someday, potentially in 2011, I will have to say farewell to the beloved hero that captured our hearts, minds, and snitches. I may need two spaces between the next paragraph to compose myself.
Allright, I'm fine. As we look towards the future (I feel like I am giving a graduation address), we cannot help but take a quick moment to reflect on the past. I remember that first year where the sorting hat decided I would forever be a Gryffindor. There was the year that I was petrified by the basilisk! Do you recall that one time when I rode Buckbeak the hippogirff across the entire skyline? Do not even get me started about not being slected for the Triwizard Tournament. My favorite after school activity was always the Order of the Phoenix (we were trained to be light as a "feather"). Remember potions class? Now that was one hard OWLS to earn.
Now, on to the future! Let us set forth and search for all seven horcruxes! We shall not be frightened by the terror that is the Death Eaters! I will not cower in fear when Lord Voldemort comes running at me! I will raise my wand high! I will fight for my life! For my freedom! FOR HOGWARTS!
