Three Cheers For Ten Years

I should've write something about Harry Potter. But after three times I have watched the movie, still, I can not seem able to pull everything together. The pieces of truth, I have just witnessed the last Harry Potter movie. The end of Harry Potter story. Everything, is highly emotional. As the Harry Potter and Deathly Hallows Part II launched, I believe everyone deserve to be a little sentimental on July.

What can I say? Harry Potter plotted half of my life. I would not have a proper childhood without Harry Potter. For these past ten years, Harry always been the hero for the land beyond my imagination. The president of my childhood fantasy. If Harry Potter never been written, I would not be who I am now, madly in love with Britain. I know Harry will always live within our memories but it is just simply difficult to accept there will be no Harry Potter coming up on the screen nor paragraphs.

Harry's influence drove me deeply into the hysteria back then. Around summer 2002, I decided to join Harry Potter camp. For several days, I stayed in a big house with massive yard assuming it was "Hogwarts" following every and all the wizardry activities. I got through the sorting hat, Potions, Charm, Herbology, Transfiguration classes and Quidditch without broomstick. On the last day, each house had to perform a short drama; and I was chosen to play Hermione. I know, I know, awkward. But if I had to write an unforgettable moment essay while I was in the elementary school, that was it. For the whole year long.

Since then, Harry Potter always been a part of me. You know how Harry Potter is. There is no necessarily need for further endearment. Each person has their own definition and stories regarding Harry Potter. Thus, Harry Potter will always own a place in everyone's heart, somehow.

In conclusion, thank you God for giving J.K Rowling's such magical mind, thank you British environment for raising such talent and thank you for the fellow directors in film industry for bringing it up alive, visually. Thank you, Daniel, Rupert and Emma, for giving more soul to the characters flawlessly. And last but definitely not least, thank you, J.K Rowling, for everything, in literal meaning. For writing the book. For each sentence building every paragraphs. For coloring my childhood.

So long, Harry!
