So drawing harry potter is fun

I know this is the third harry potter post in a row but I'm almost certain there wont be a fourth. I'm going to CHCH this friday to hang out with LEON and hopefully we will have cool adventures that I can draw about, like visiting other Charlie while she works.


So I like listening to Stephen Fry when I'm interneting and then I started doodling stuff.


I was listening to Philosopher's stone and it's so much easier to listen to this than reading it yourself. I mean it's obviously a kids book and I've read it so often that when I try to read it I get bored and I skip bits and miss things:


"OUT!" roared Uncle Vernon, and he took both Harry and Dudley by the scruffs of their necks and threw them into the hall, slamming the kitchen door behind them. Harry and Dudley promptly had a furious but silent fight over who would listen at the keyhole; Dudley won, so Harry, his glasses dangling from one ear, lay flat on his stomach to listen at the crack between door and floor.

Seriously I'm pretty sure all I can think about right now is Harry Potter, today I got my blood tested to see how much testosterone I have so my doctor can send me my perscription for T (and then I can have a t party) and I come home and draw Harry Potter shit... Sorry - C

Oh by the way here is one more drawing:

We went to see Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part II

This is how we dressed up: (we looked really, super cool, like ice, but even cooler  than that).

The Remus in the middle wasn't with us, but we were the first ones there and were lonely, so when he arrived by himself, we pounced on him and demanded photos. After that we weren't as shy and made lots of Potter Pals.


Charlie: I was super glad I'd brought my Hagrid Doll, I was pretty upset when, well, everyone died. I was a little self-conscience about my tears until I realised that Summer was sobbing. Summer didn't stop sobbing and I didn't know what to do.
Summer: It was the saddest thing I have ever seen in my life and I had to pretty much die so I sobbed audibly through the last half of the film. :'(

Harry Potter is Awesome

When I was in primary school we had book week, on the Friday we all dressed up as book characters and walked through Highbury mall. This was a pretty big deal. I really wanted to impress every one and decided to go as the most bad ass book character ever... DOBBY!!!


Well, if I'm honest I just wore a piece of rectangular fabric my mum had sown into a dress and my hockey socks.


Well if I'm really honest I was the fat, ginger kid with ridiculous amounts of hair. I was practically Molly Weasley but with less offspring.


Everyone was in awe of my costume and I made heaps of friends. We would sit and talk about Harry Potter for ages. We would discuss what might happen in the fourth book, we played pretend games where we got sent to hogwarts. We were, in short, totally awesome.
