Writing exercise

On the subject of magic world, there was an imperative event Last Monday in that it was 20 years since the first Harry Potter book had been published. HP fans with different backgrounds all around the world celebrated the special day in multiple ways, for instance, some cosplayed as film characters, some went to the platform 9 3/4 at King’s Cross Station in London and reviewed the HP movies together, etc. I still remember the excited feeling when I read the first HP book about 15 years ago, and I have been obsessed with the wizard world ever since then. I have read every book of HP series, and watched every movie more than just once. I bought HP movie souvenirs like Severus Snape’s wand and badges of Hogwarts and I wish I could dressed as a wizard together with my son to celebrate Halloween. Yes, I am definitely a crazy fan of HP.
