Day 30: What affect has Harry Potter had on your life and how much does it mean to you?

Well, Harry Potter is my childhood. It's as simple as that. I remember waking up with my mom and sisters at midnight, and going to the bookstore in our small town in England just to be the first ones to get the newest Harry Potter books. I remember dragging my parents to every movie, and getting extremely upset when my friends saw one of the movies before me. And only a few months ago, when Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part Two came out, I remember being almost in tears when I found out that my flight to visit my friend was the morning of the day that the movie came out, and I was going to miss the midnight showing at the cinema. Without Harry Potter, my life would be quite boring, since 75% of the things I think about are either Harry Potter, or Harry Potter related. And it's sort of weird, and this will make me sound like such a loser, but Harry, Ron and Hermione almost feel like childhood friends to me. They were more than just characters in books an movies. They were and will always be my fictional friends and heroes. Aww I'm crying right now, and I feel like such a nerd, but even though it's over, Harry Potter will always be a part of my life.
