My Journey Through The Harry Potter Fandom

Yer a wizard 'Arry

I found out about Harry Potter in year four.

All my friend a grade above me would always talk about it, while I sat there clueless.

Then finally, on my 11th birthday, I had received all the Harry Potter books.

It took a while to get into them.

I was in love with the series as soon as I hit HP & the CoS. Then soon came this phase.

Many, many Deathly Hallows wallpapers.

But I wasn't an official Potterhead yet. I had to be sorted into a house.

I took many, many BuzzFeed quizzes and also ones on other un-named sites. They all said Hufflepuff.

It was finally September, and I still hadn't received my Hogwarts acceptance letter.

I am still wondering if it had gotten lost in the mail.

Then I decided to watch the movies

My favourite is The Deathly Hallows.

After two years, I had finally created a Pottermore account.

I was sorted into Hufflepuff.

My Patronus is a fox, my wand is hazelwood with a unicorn hair core, 12 ¼" and surprisingly swishy flexibility, and finally, my Ilvermorny house is Horned Serpent.

For my 13th birthday, I received a Hufflepuff scarf, mug, HP earrings and bag.

Then came the HP memes, lego sets and watching HP music.lys on YouTube.

I duelled my friend (and won).

He almost used Avada Kedavra!

Re-watched the movies and re-read all the books.

Then I decided to make a fanfiction or two, after watching several Harry Potter fanfics on YouTube.

I desired to go to The Wizarding World of London.

But seeing as I live on the other side of the world, it was difficult.

There is just so much more to explore.

I can't wait to forward deeper into the Harry Potter fandom.
