Watching the "Harry Potter" movies make me happy. I do not know why they comfort me when I feel sad or anxious. For example, you know I love traveling, but I hate to flight; the other day I had to be in a plane for eight hours, and I found the last two "Harry Potter" movies: "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" part 1 y 2. I have to say they made my flight better.

Also, they made me realize JK Rowling killed some of my favorite characters. My memory went back to the moment I read the books, and I cried for these deaths. I knew I needed to share my feelings about them.

To start, Albus Dumbledore is not on my list. I always knew Dumbledore had to die. With the best wizard alive, Harry did not have any reason to confront Voldemort directly.

1. Dobby.

Facebook: Harry Potter.

Dobby is the death I cried the most. Dobby is a martyr. He is a slave in the second book, but he is brave enough to work against his owners to save Harry. Later, we know he is happy and full of socks working in Howards.

In the last book (and in movie seven), he appears when we think Harry is lost. Harry and his friends are in Malfoy's mansion as prisoners, and Bellatrix is torturing Hermione. Dobby arrives like a hero. Dobby saves everybody, but he gets killed by Bellatrix.

Dobby dies on the beach; it is heartbreaking. I remember myself crying all the time the book. Dobby deserved a better end, a happy one.

2. Fred.

Facebook: Harry Potter.

When you read a series of seven novels, you have some presentiments about the end of the novels. I always knew that one member of the Weasley family would die, but I never thought it would be one of the twins.

Weasley twins are amazing, brave, funny, and rebels. By the books and the movies, we got in love with them. Why did not Rolling kill Bill (we did not know him a lot), Charlie (we never saw him), or Percy (he is a jerk)? Why she has to hurt us so deeply?

3. Sirius.

Facebook: Harry Potter.

Harry finally finds a kind family member, his godfather Sirius Black. Sirius was unfairly imprisoned when Harry was a little boy. By the time, we discovered how much Sirius and James (Harry's father) loved each other. In books four and five, Sirius is a fugitive, but he always has time to take care of Harry.

In "Harry Potter and Order of the Phoenix" Harry makes a big mistake, and he goes to Voldemort's tramp. The result is Sirius dies, and Harry loses his only real family. In the end, Sirius has a sad life.

4. Lupin.

Facebook: Harry Potter.

Remus Lupin is another sad character. He is suffering lycanthropy all his life (he is a werewolf). The first time Rolling describes Lupin he is almost a homeless. He cannot get a good job because of his condition. When he finally finds the love with Tonks and has a kid, Edward, he dies in "Battle of Howards."

5. Harry.

Facebook: Harry Potter.

I can understand that Harry is the last Horcrux, but all the idea of Voldemort killing Harry, and Harry talking with Dumbledore in limbo is not good enough. It was too much, and it was not necessary.

Probably you have your list. I am not missing Snape in my list. I think he deserves his end.

By the way, each May 2nd, Rowling apologizes for one death in "Harry Potter" novels. She picked this date because it is the anniversary of the "Battle of Howards." So far, she said sorry for Dobby, Lupin, Fred and Snape.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
