I unfortnately failed my blogging for a month total goal. However, I feel like I’ve created a habit of blogging more. Let’s hope I can stick to it. I have an upcoming blog about my journey on the North Star at Conner Prairie, so look out for that. For now, here are the remainding questions from my Harry Potter blogging.
Was there a scene in the books that wasn’t in the movies, but you wish it was?
In the 6th movie/book, I would’ve liked to have seen the final battle scene. I understand why the filmmakers kept it out (because there is also one in the 7th), but I think it would have created a better ending for the 6th movie because it felt lackluster. There was some quidditch portions missing along the way too that I would’ve liked to see.
What magical job would you want after Hogwarts?
I would like to be auror.
Top 3 favorite chapters
That’s tough, I must actually use my brain to think about this. I love chapters that have Christmas scenes in them. I think it’s in the first or second book during the holidays that the Weasleys and Harry are at the castle over break and have a ferocious snowball fight outside. The come inside, have a Christmas dinner and mug of hot chocolate. I don’t know why but that part always makes me warm. I also love the chapter in the seventh book when Harry walks into the forest at the end. I’m blanking on a third favorite.
Favorite magical treat
Butterbeer!
What would your Animagus form be?
I think like Sirius, I would be a dog.
How has Harry Potter affected you/your life?
It has given me countless hours of warmth. When I was younger, I was completely immersed in the books. I reread the first book so many times before I got the second and third for Christmas. I got the fourth after a minor surgery that kept me on the couch for a week. I’ve lied to get out of hanging with friends to go finish the sixth book. I don’t know exactly what it is that keeps me captured about the books and I know a lot of people don’t understand or think it’s silly. But it’s been so much apart of my reading and fantasy life for over 10 years. I don’t think any other book series will ever take me away as Harry has.
