Day 18...the boy who lived

So this has become more of a bi-weekly affair...so be it. Last Thursday night proved to be a riveting and magical display of theatrical bliss. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2, though it will never surpass the book's brilliance, was a fantastic end to a decade of Harry. Because Luna is pretty much one of my favorite characters in the series, I felt to go out with a bang for this last movie by dressing up as this crazy blonde-haired lass (seemed suiting for me). I also purchased some Nerds candy (cause those are just oh so tasty)...then off to the premier I went with dear ol' Anna. Ah what a joyous occasion it was with fellow witches and wizards, some sporting capes, hats, wands, Griffyndor burgundy or Slytherin emerald. After George and Snape died along with other members of the Order, with mixed emotions inside I was unable to shed a tear. Nor when the movie came to a close was I able to outwardly express what I was feeling on the inside........as the credits rolled on the screen I thought to myself, this is the close of my childhood! When the last book was released it marked the beginning of the end...then as the movies caught up and the final one ended........this is it. Harry is no more....................I first had the books to look forward to, then the movies...now what??? My pilgrimage to Harry Potter World in Florida? What am I to do with my life now???? So as I scramble to find my sanity, I must bid Harry adieu  and thank he and his fellow witches and wizards for all of the adventure, excitement, and childhood memories they have rained upon me.
