ONCE AGAIN, A WARNING FOR THOSE WHO DO NOT WISHED TO BE SPOILED OF HARRY POTTER AND THE DEATHLY HALLOWS CONTENT, DO NOT PROCEED.

Alright. Back again for some blogging. Been reading some blog entries of my friends and decided to blog for myself too. I don't think I'll be writing much today since I need to go off to study again soon. Supposed to finish chem revision today. 16 more questions! Haha.

I think I'll just talk about two characters in Harry Potter that I am fond of. Perhaps they are my favourite characters. Maybe. Anyway, the male character I'd like to talk about it Ronald Bilius Weasley, best friend of Harry Potter. Generally I find him a fairly balanced person. He has humour which makes him likeable among people but he can also get fairly temperamental. Perhaps he's better now after all those years of bickering with Hermione. Anyway, he's quite loyal to his friends. As Dumbledore so rightly knew, he is an important person among the trio. He's the one who keeps them together, who keeps them talking. Harry did admit that having Hermione as a best friend was different with having Ron as your best friend (This was when Harry and Ron were having a falling out in Goblet of Fire I think). There was much less laughing. I think Ron's humour is a very important aspect in the trio's friendships. He's the one who makes them laugh. I'm thinking this is especially important towards Hermione. She doesn't have many close friends to really talk to in school. She's not very close to Lavender and Parvati. So without Ron, she'll be having far lesser laughs since there's no one else to do that job. Harry can still hang around with some other people (though admittedly his situation is fairly the same as Hermione's) but I feel that Hermione's solitude without Ron or Harry would be much greater for her as compared to Harry without Ron and Hermione. I think her insecurities that had partially led her to push herself in her subjects to be the best in them really shows how much she need friends. Without being the know-it-all, she wouldn't be known. And without being known, you wouldn't have much friends (however being known doesn't equate to friends, yes). Opps back to Ron now. Well yeah he is important in the trio. His Patronus (a Jack-Russel terrier, a breed of dog) does reflect his loyalty towards his friends. Dogs are known to be loyal I guess. Yet Ron can be the person with the towering temper. He can be seen angry in almost every book I think (like every other character) but yeah I think it really shows how balanced he is as a character. He has his good and bad points.

On to a female character then. Luna Lovegood. I'm really fascinated by her character. I can see that she is strong mentally as she does not break down when people make fun of her or take her things and of the sort. She is not shy about wearing her raddish-like earrings or being different. I guess it's just her attitude towards such things are not negative. She has a very open mind and does not see her differences as differences. She treats them as if they are normal hence she isn't affected by the attitudes of others. Yet she still treasures the friends that she have. Really, it was wonderful to read about her having the pictures of her friends put up and linked by that chain made up of the words Friends (Sorry if I've got that part of the story wrong). It really shows how much she values the friendships that she have, no matter how few friends she might have. Even though her beliefs are in contrast to that of Hermione's, she still comforts her during one of the incidents when Ron made fun of Hermione in Half-Blood Prince when they had their last and largest falling out. She is caring and remains positive at all times, even when she was captured and imprisoned in Deathly Hallows. She encourages Harry in Deathly Hallows when he was overwhelmed with negative thoughts and unable to cast his Patronus. Her Patronus is also representative of her (as Patronuses should be). She is similar to a hare which always hops around, reflecting her positive attitude. I really like Luna Lovegood as a character. A very unique girl she is.

Well, I guess that'll be all. Got to go back to studying or else I'm facing another 2 o'clock bedtime. Haha. Thoughts on Harry Potter are the main things that is keeping me going. About 1 week left to Prelims. Haha. Cyaz.
