My Harry Potter marathon.

How do I start this?! After some time of not writing, I would like to apologize to (if there is) anyone who has been stalking / reading some of my updates in my blog. And for writing my posts in English (which wasn't the case for several years ago). Life's good, it hasn't been hard nor easy, but enjoying the ups and downs of it would be the only way to carry on with life.

Anyway, I am sure everyone of you know Harry Potter. Well as for me, I first saw the first movie when I was (not mistakenly) at the age of 8, it was when my dad bought a pirated CD of it :P I liked the idea, and was dreaming to go to the magical school of Hogwarts. Pretty sure I had a little crush on Daniel Radcliffe, as he was this one chosen boy and the main character of Harry Potter series (and which I am sure most girls experienced this too)

Somehow, as someone who do not have a long lasting passion, I had never watched the series anymore until my best friend (who had been keeping up with Harry Potter since movie 1) told me to go with her for the second movie of Deadly Hallows, as it appeared to be the last movie of the series. I didn't even know the villain that they needed to fight's name is Voldemort, but I continued watching with the help of my own guesses to complete the movie in my own sense. After the movie ended, I never watched the movie anymore. I finished my school, went for the student exchange program, came back and continued my studies in A Level in Shah Alam and in my second semester, I decided to watch the Harry Potter movies.

Taken from a friend of mine, I started to watch. However it didn't seem to be my cup of tea. I finished all of the movies, but with little understanding of the whole story they were trying to deliver.

The Harry Potter marathon started last week on Wednesday (1/10/2014) after I finished my second semeter's trials. I hanged out with a bunch of friends of mine, and we talked about Harry Potter that SEEMED SO ATTRACTIVE TO MY EARS EMERGERD I HEVVV TU WACCIT EGEEINN.

5  days later, I finished the movie marathon with many questions about the series. The movie itself didn't seem complete to me, as it leaves few unanswered questions. For example ;
1) Why did Voldemort attack James and Lily Potter? This wasn't told in the movie. The movie started with Harry being sent to the Dursleys.
2) How did Peter Pettigrew die? I saw him got knocked out by Dobbie the free elf in the Deadly Hallows 2 but in the movie, he didn't die. He wasn't even there during the second wizarding war.
3) Why did Voldemort want to get rid of the muggles and mudbloods so much
4) How did Tom Riddle find out that he was the heir of Slytherin
5) WHY DID LILY FALL FOR JAMES HE IS A BULLY (poor Snape)
6) Is Bellatrix related to Sirius? I don't really get the Black's family tree.
7) Didn't Trelawney die during the first scene of the Deadly Hallows because Voldemort's snake ate her? However I found her being alive and was helping with the injured during the last scene after Hogwarts was attacked.
8) How many children do the Weasley couple have and are they related to the Blacks lol wtf this is so confusing
9) Dumbledore -  why didn't he told about himself more to Harry.
10) Why do Snape's and Lily's patronus charms are the same - doe?
11) Why dooooo the dementorsssss listen to voldemort arent they the prison's guards or something zz
12) About the after movie - what happened to Hermoine Granger's parents? She used the obliviate spell on them to make them forget about her and went to fight with voldemort. After the war ended, did she undo the spell
13) how did harry potter come back to live i thought he was dead after voldemort used avada kadavra -,- jumpa dumbledore hang hidup teruih padia xpaham aku
14) How come the harry becomes the hocrux i thought hocrux is only for the unliving things after you killed someone
15) Snape became the headmaster after he killed Dumbledore, does this mean the previous headmaster was killed by Dumbledore? D:


After having so many questions and bugging my friends with them, I decided to start reading the book. I am currently reading the order of the Pheonix as most of my confusions start there and that's the only Harry Potter book I have lol. Anyone who has the explanation and is willing to explain, do tell me the reasons! :D

Seriously, what have I been missing all these years? Harry Potter is simply...genius
