    I'm officially done harry potter.  Done, finito, over with.  And I believe there are two ways I could go about this.

    I could, and have considered crying.  Because the me that was in forth grade, the girl with the awkward hair and earphones on all the time.  The kid who was obsessed with harry potter and couldn't handle anything in the real world, is dead.  Truthfully she's been dead a long time.  Not completely dead of course, part of me still laughs uncontrollably at jim dale's voice of Ms.Weasley and I think I'm just as awkward, if not more so at fifteen than I was at ten, my hair is just nicer(though the bleach is growing out).  I'm sad because when I did nothing but listen to harry potter I was much more innocent.  That was and is my coping mechanism.  Just tune things out, they'll go away.  My mom's deppression, my brother's unhappiness in school, my being in the worst class, not having very many friends.  Tune them out, they'll go away.  I think I'll keep that part of me forever which is why I'm not crying while I write this.

    I'm happy.  I got to have the excitement of waiting for the next book, the next movie.  I got to discuss theories with my family and my friends.  I'm ecstatic that I've been able to learn things from a book that is as crazy as Harry Potter.  I got to relate to harry.  A year after the book where one of Harry's friends died was published my grandmother died.  I got to talk to my swim coach about horcruxes.  I'm happy.

Really.

    I can't say I've been busy, really, I've just been doing other stuff.  I read the book The Time Traveler's Wife by Audrey Niffenegger and that was beautiful.  I need to read Animal Farm, but everyone tells me it's a quick read.  I hope it's better than Siddhartha.

    My twin sister and I have started jogging a mile and a half(I know, not that much).  But Alice-my sister- is really not a morning person so it's so hard to get out of the door, I just get really frustrated.  It's 10:55 and I told her to be home by ten of ten.  Sigh.  See, frustrating.

    I'm still puttering on the ukulele and it's fun.  This Monday I babysat these two little girls (4 and 7) and the 7-year-old made a poem, that I'd like to share, because it's so cute.

Bees by Janie

Bees bees
Oh, how I love bees!
Hovering from flower to flower,
Sucking up the nectar for new honey,
Oh how I love honey!
Bees bees
Just bees!
I love bees.

    That being said what's happening to the bees?  It's starting to scare me and my younger sister has taken to saying, "Enjoy the apples while you can, soon there won't be any!"  I don't know as much as I'd like to know about it.  I've always felt a good coexistence with bees.  Sure, two summers ago I stepped on one and when I was 6 a bee stung me on my hand but I've always firmly believed that bees only sting when there bothered.  Also, they die after they sting you, think about that!  I mean, the last thing that bee has done is sting you.

    That's a kind of poetic justice.

    Hmm.  I just think Armageddon is going to come because the bees are dying.  It's like, "Oops, forget about the bees, DEATH!"

    I'd also like to briefly list my views or theories on Harrry Potter.
Dumbledore is dead, it's sad, but he is.
I think Hagrid, Ms.Weasley and Grawp among other's might die.
Ginny dies and turns Harry EVIL.
Sirius is dead.  Accept it.
As far as Harry is a horcrux, I'm not sure I believe that, because 'neither can live while the other survives'.

I also really want to learn about Lily and James' childhoods.  Or at least learn MORE about Lily.  We don't know anything about her.

Yep.  That's it.
