Writing.
I have to write a children's book as an assigment for my french class. And I love the idea, but I don't know how to begin with. I'll suppose I'll begin with: Once upon a time... but that phrase is way overuse. That is the least of my writing problems. I am not very good at french verbe tenses and the correct use of them, I am not even good in some verb tenses of my natal language to be honest! I am trying, but for me all is very confusing.

In other news, I am re-reading Deathly Hallows because I can't wait for November to arrive already. Is the third time I'm reading it and I still notice details I didn't before. Is strange but, as the end of "Harry Potter" as a whole approaches, I can't help but feel nostalgic. This has been in my life for, what? Almost ten years now? Is a long period of time and I have became attached to this whole set of characters. Feeling I have seen them grow and all those things. It sounds a bit odd, but is how I feel.

Day 13: A fictional book
The picture of Dorian Gray. Is the most recent book I have finished reading and I enjoy it very much.
How do I got interested in this book? I know it is a classic, but I first came to the realization of the
book when it was mentioned in (500) Days of Summer. So there I go, I bought it and then I read it.
It was amazing, for me, in some parts even scary.

The novel tells tells the story of a young man called Dorian Gray that "sells" his soul in order to be
forever young and beautiful and that instead, the portrait painted by his friend Basil Hallward, receives
the weight of age and sin. If you want to read the book, here is the link.

Day 4: Your favorite book
My favorite book. I have two. I am a fan to the bone of Harry Potter and it is just natural for my favorite
book to be Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. But my favorite book that is not related to the Harry Potter
series is The Alchemist by Paulo Coehlo. It is amazing and I highly recommend it. The book inspires you a
lot and incist for you to follow your dreams. I changed when I read this book. And the quotes, oh, the quotes
they are inspirational and insist for you to keep dreaming.

-Everyone on earth has a treasure that awaits him.
-The world's greatest lie: At a certain point in our lives we lose control of what's happening to us and our
lives become controlled by fate.
-Wherever your heart is, there you will find your treasure.
-There is only one way to learn. It's through action.

Today is the second anniversary of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. I can't believe it has been
two years. I still remember when I was doing the line at midnight just to have my copy (very proud to say:
it is a first edition, like my Half-Blood Prince copy). I read it in two days, it is addictive and one thing you
have to know about me is that if I get into a book, I simply can't stop reading it, I don't want to sleep, I don't
want to eat, I basically just read. It is me, and that's the way I am, very obsessive person.

How did I get so obsessed with Harry Potter? My dad has always encouraged me to read, and when I was
nine we went to a book store and as I didn't have a book to read, he suggested Harry Potter and the
Prisioner of Askaban, as the second movie had just came out and I wanted to know what happened next
(Always been curious). At first, I thought the book was to much words for me, so I kind of ignore it, or didn't
read it a lot (It took me a year to finish that book I tell you) But when the end of the book was coming, there
was what made it, there was where I became obsessed... and the other books I read them quite easily and
very fast, my record being Deathly Hallows of course, 2 days. This is my story with Harry Potter and how
I became a fan. These books have changed my life and I absolutely adore JK Rowling. And for you to know,
I prefer the books over the movies.
