A tribute to the boy who lived

I know this may sound stupid to some of you, but I truly am a big fan of the Harry Potter series. J.K. Rowling's novel's honestly changed my life. It helped me become a better person, in a way. I met so many amazing people through the fandom! I was six when I first heard the name of the chosen one.
What I really don't appreciate is people who say that Harry Potter sucks, when they didn't even bother reading the books. And you know what, for those of you to say that, then you should re think now, because by saying that, you insult not only the wanted person, but the whole Harry Potter fandom, and believe me, next to you, we are way more powerful!
Should we really stop supporting a talented author, who not only helps us improve out English and reading skills, but who also inspires us to bring out the best out of us? If you think that, then you must mad!
Yes, we believe in magic. Yes, we believe friendship is of huge importance in hard times and yes we waited impatiently for a letter for Hogwarts to come when we were eleven. Do you really want to take that away from us?

"But he understood at last what Dumbledore had been trying to tell him. It was, he thought, the difference between being dragged into the arena to face a battle to the death and walking into the arena with your head held high. Some people, perhaps, would say that there was little to choose between the two ways, but Dumbledore knew — and so do I, thought Harry, with a rush of fierce pride, and so did my parents — that there was all the difference in the world."

Home is where the heart is

Home is where the heart is
Can anyone tell me why I'm jut starting to miss my old school, just now, after five years? I don't know what got to me. I'm leaving E.I.S in two weeks, and I'm just starting to miss my old school, in Malawi. Aren't I suppose to start missing this school already? My friend said it's because I'm going back to Africa, but still, it's all so confusing! I think I'm missing way to many people. And saying goodbye to my friends here in the Philippines won't make it any better. My heart aches writing this. It's a big change, they all say. It's going to be a good experience. Change is good. Well, at least that is what they say. My childhood has been torn between my friendship in Africa and my home here in Asia. I don't know where I belong anymore. I'm trying to keep my chin up, I promise you. But looking at those pictures of my old playground in Malawi brings back so many memories! I miss too many people. Way too many people. I make no sense, as usual, but it's the truth. I love of you so dear much!

Give me a definition of the word bravery

Give me a definition of the word bravery
The word bravery. That is one word that you will never know the full meaning. Is saving a life a sign of bravery? Or is it facing your fears. Is holding in tears a sign of bravery? Or is it fighting through hard times. When I was six, someone told me I was brave because I lived crazy adventures. When I was eight, someone said I was brave because beside the fact that I kept on moving, I still kept my chin up high. When I was ten, someone told me I was brave because I lead the way on a scary trail. When I was twelve, someone said I was brave because I faced my biggest fear. Today, someone told me I was brave because I fought trough a problem.
But I don't think that any of these acts are qualified to be a part of the word bravery. It's such a vague word. I'll never understand it. It's all so confusing!

I guess Godric Gryffondor would know the answer. Don't mind that last part, I'm a Harry Potter freak.

Why is it that when I type in brave on google, alot of firefighters show up?

And so now, it all rests on faith

And so now, it all rests on faith
It's all messed up. It's all under pressure. I'm so stressed. So tired. I don't have time for friends anymore. I wanted to spend my last days here with a smile on my face. Of course I try but something always manages to turn it upside down. I'm worrying about my future, there are too many things to do, and school seems harder. I keep on having these nightmares about being lost in this huge school. I'm scared not to fit in. I'm scared for my family, someone even asked me if I was scared he was gong to die in one of his tasks! That made me feel down. Teachers are telling me it's going to be hard for me to move, seeing I'm fourteen. I think I should face the truth. It's going to be hard, and tough, and it's probably gonna be long to settle in but eventually, I'll get used to it. But that won't be necessary because I'll be moving in five years again anyway.

The dreamer's rainbow is loosing it's colors. Please help me regain them, I wanna see my pot of gold again....

Here comes the new kid again. =(

I'm gonna find a way to fight my way through this mess, because being sad is a waste of time.

Today I opened a letter I had been waiting for so long. It was from the U.K, it's the autograph of Daniel Radcliffe! I'm so happy!!! As you may all know, I'm still a Harry Potter freak!
