Waiting

size=”5″ size=”4″ face=”Tahoma”>Being somewhat new to the fandom, I have never got to experience the hype surrounding all things Harry Potter¦ until now. I never got to go to a fun midnight release party for a book. I never got to wait outside a theater eagerly with fellow Potter fans for a movie. I never got so excited to see a trailer before or to wait for a book to come out in all my life!

I am sad that I did not get to join in those wonderful rites of passage that being a Harry fan comes with. I came into the fandom just a little too late. I do wish that I had gotten into it a few months earlier so I could have been included in the “Deathly Hallows” excitement. I would have LOVED to have gone to a midnight release party for “Deathly Hallows.”

But not all is lost! As far as the books go, we still have the Scottish book to wait for. I do get to eagerly await the last three movies that are coming out, and I also have the theme park to get excited about!

The only things I have gotten to experience so far have been the Beedle the Bard release, and the sixth trailer release. I wasn’t aware of any release parties for Beedle near where I live, so I ordered mine and ran home after work to find it on my front porch, and I screamed I was so excited! Harry Potter and the Half-blood Prince will be the first movie I’ll get to see when it’s released. I couldn’t believe how excited I was when the first trailer came out! I don’t even remember how many times I watched it.

I am extremely excited for all the things to come! The next thing we have to wait for is the sixth movie. After that there will be the theme park, both of the last movies, and sometime, hopefully, the Scottish book. Thinking about these upcoming things, I do not know how I can wait! It seems like it will be forever, but I know that it will only be a few more months before the movie comes out, and then a few more months until the theme park opens. I need to relish the excitement of awaiting, because when everything is out, I will miss the waiting. So for now, I guess, I’m glad to wait.

P.S. Is there anything that I have missed that I didn’t include, because I wasn’t around to know about it? If so, I would love to hear about it, so send me an owl. Also, if you like my blog, I would love for you to send me a friend request on MyLeaky! Thanks for reading!
