Okay, I KNOW it's been almost 3 months since 'The End Of An Era,' but I felt like writing this. Harry Potter has changed lives of kids all over the world. Suddenly it's cool to read books, and it's cool to wear glasses and it doesn't matter if you're obsessing over a fictional character. A lot of people have found themselves through reading books, people are no longer afraid to admit their opinions, heck, 8 year olds have started reading 500 page plus books nowadays! Anyways, a lot of people have wondered how this all started how Harry first came into our world. The answer is simple and this story has probably been a million times. One poor single mother called Joanne Rowling stood on a train watching as the scenery flew bye. And so appeared, Harry. Harry's story was at first a small, penny worth esque story printed only 50 times. Back then, book reading was considered, 'uncool.' (It probably is now, but you get the point right?) Each Harry book was sold for like $2.00 back then. But, fast forward 18 years and they are now worth $600 plus dollars. Harry Potter has changed the world drastically, whether you realized it or not. Books were brought alive again after the nearly fifty year gap from the epic classics LOTR and Narnia. The books inspired movies which inspired another Star Wars ish revival of pop culture. From then, HP was a caught in a whirlwind of publicity. The world of fiction seemed to have been awoken. Controversy, debates, fandom etc Harry Potter influenced everything. 7 books and 8 movies later, HP lives on. Maybe there'll be a new franchise of movies happening, (The Hunger Games) or maybe another string of books crazy fans (Twilight :P) But Harry Potter will live on, with it's legacy that inspired millions. Harry might've said goodbye twice but will that stop us from remembering him? No. Will his legacy live on? As Snape would've said, "Always..."

LONG LIVE QUEEN ROWLING!

10. Arguing with Professor Umbridge in class will earn you a biscuit from Professor McGonagall.
You mutter nonsense Latin words under your breath.

You call your least favorite teacher Snape.

Your computer says "You've Got Mail" and you run outside looking for an owl.

You actually ask for a broom for Christmas.

You mutter "lumos" under your breath every time you turn on a flashlight.

You sort everyone you meet into the four Hogwarts houses (Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, Hufflepuff and Slytherin).

You were burned when you couldn't get through the flames of your fireplace.

You had to go to the hospital after you broke your nose running headfirst into the wall between platforms nine and ten.

1. Tell him Hermione has a boyfriend.

2. Repeatedly ask him whatever happened to "Lav-Lav"?

3. Tell him Krum is coming back.

4. Stare pointedly at his forehead, looking bewildered.

5. . . . And when he asks what you’re looking at, say in a disappointed voice, “I just thought you’d have a scar too, being Harry Potter’s (sigh adoringly then look superior) sidekick and all.”

6. Tell him that Krum is having a welcome back party and everyone is invited.

7. . . . Except him, that is.

8. The next time someone says “Ron”, state loudly, “Isn’t that the name of Harry Potter’s useless...

1. Ask him to tell Cedric you said hello.

2. Follow him around and say "Voldemort is your uncle!" in a loud voice right next to his ear.

3. Ask him if the "anvil-sized hints" ever hit him on the head, which is really what caused the scar.

4. "So . . . first you were the Boy Who Lived . . . then you were a nutcase . . . now you're The Chosen One. Why don't they just add it together so that you're the "Chosen Nutcase Who Lived?"

5. Offer him stolen silver from Sirius Black's house.

6. Make sure you tell him you got it from Mundungus Fletcher.

7. Tell him that he should stop pretending to be Harry...

I have decided to write this article because I've noticed that a lot of people have doubts about the Harry Potter movies.

First of all, let me say that one of my biggest pet peeves is when people call themselves "major Harry Potter fans" but have never read the books. I do not think that you can be a Harry Potter fan just by watching the movies, and I'm pretty sure anyone who has read the books will agree with me on this.

Having said that though, the other day one of my friends asked me:
"Why were the Harry Potter movies made?"
She asked this question because she felt like the movies "did not...

Hello my name is Caitlin and I'm a Potter-holic.

Everyone has a story of how their Potter addiction started. My addiction started on 7/16/2005. It was the premier for book 6. I went to the premier for book 5 and attempted to read the book but it was too boring. So I was determined to read book 6. I never read any of the other books. I've only seen the movies. I started to read the book and I took it everywhere. I took it to summer camp and read all day. One day another girl at the camp came up to me and said," Oh my god, you're reading Half-Blood Prince! I just finished it. You know Dumbledore...
