When I turned eleven I was so heartbroken, to not get a letter delivered by an owl! I had so many fascinations about Hogwarts that in my mind it was real! So when I did not get that letter I remember thinking "Just a day late!" Well after a week....I felt so sad and then my brother had to step in "YOU ACTUALLY THOUGHT IT WAS REAL??? IDIOT!" I cried for days, so tell the truth did you cry?

    No, sadly I was already past that age when HP was published. I can imagine how heartbreaking it is (even when you think something you always harbor an tiny bit of hope).

I didn't cry. I really really wished it was true, that when I didn't receive the letter I was like, "Maybe in the US the wizarding schooling begins in high school," but I never really believed that. But bu but... but MAGIC SHOULD BE REAL! crying

No, even though I was young when I read the books(I know I was 10 when the 5th one came out), I never cried. I think it was because my older sister never got one, so I knew not to expect it. *shrugs*

D_: You make a good point, but Lily got a letter, and Petunia did not! Thats why I still had hope!

I was heartbroken when I didn't get a letter as well! I actually hoped that perhaps my father was a wizard! Since I didn't know him, it could've been possible.
I really hoped to get that letter, even though my mind told me that it was just a book, I still hoped.

I cried. And then I hoped that maybe, just maybe, the owl got lost. Six years later, I still hold on to that hope.

    Well, we must be content to live as muggles.. I still love to think about the possibilities - which is why I love reading fantasy.

Why can't marriage be...I did not cry. I guess I just don't believe everything I read. Too bad for me. xd Though, there have been magical happenings in my past. Hmm... ...just as universal as love?

I'll hold on to my hope that in the US, magic school starts in high school... I'd better do some accidental magic by then! domokun

Rakada I cried. And then I hoped that maybe, just maybe, the owl got lost. Six years later, I still hold on to that hope. Yup. My letter is still coming also. Dang those unreliable owls.
