Watching the "Harry Potter" movies make me happy. I do not know why they comfort me when I feel sad or anxious. For example, you know I love traveling, but I hate to flight; the other day I had to be in a plane for eight hours, and I found the last two "Harry Potter" movies: "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" part 1 y 2. I have to say they made my flight better.

Also, they made me realize JK Rowling killed some of my favorite characters. My memory went back to the moment I read the books, and I cried for these deaths. I knew I needed to share my feelings about them.

To start, Albus Dumbledore is not on my list. I always knew Dumbledore had to die. With the best wizard alive, Harry did not have any reason to confront Voldemort directly.

1. Dobby.

Facebook: Harry Potter.

Dobby is the death I cried the most. Dobby is a martyr. He is a slave in the second book, but he is brave enough to work against his owners to save Harry. Later, we know he is happy and full of socks working in Howards.

In the last book (and in movie seven), he appears when we think Harry is lost. Harry and his friends are in Malfoy's mansion as prisoners, and Bellatrix is torturing Hermione. Dobby arrives like a hero. Dobby saves everybody, but he gets killed by Bellatrix.

Dobby dies on the beach; it is heartbreaking. I remember myself crying all the time the book. Dobby deserved a better end, a happy one.

2. Fred.

Facebook: Harry Potter.

When you read a series of seven novels, you have some presentiments about the end of the novels. I always knew that one member of the Weasley family would die, but I never thought it would be one of the twins.

Weasley twins are amazing, brave, funny, and rebels. By the books and the movies, we got in love with them. Why did not Rolling kill Bill (we did not know him a lot), Charlie (we never saw him), or Percy (he is a jerk)? Why she has to hurt us so deeply?

3. Sirius.

Facebook: Harry Potter.

Harry finally finds a kind family member, his godfather Sirius Black. Sirius was unfairly imprisoned when Harry was a little boy. By the time, we discovered how much Sirius and James (Harry's father) loved each other. In books four and five, Sirius is a fugitive, but he always has time to take care of Harry.

In "Harry Potter and Order of the Phoenix" Harry makes a big mistake, and he goes to Voldemort's tramp. The result is Sirius dies, and Harry loses his only real family. In the end, Sirius has a sad life.

4. Lupin.

Facebook: Harry Potter.

Remus Lupin is another sad character. He is suffering lycanthropy all his life (he is a werewolf). The first time Rolling describes Lupin he is almost a homeless. He cannot get a good job because of his condition. When he finally finds the love with Tonks and has a kid, Edward, he dies in "Battle of Howards."

5. Harry.

Facebook: Harry Potter.

I can understand that Harry is the last Horcrux, but all the idea of Voldemort killing Harry, and Harry talking with Dumbledore in limbo is not good enough. It was too much, and it was not necessary.

Probably you have your list. I am not missing Snape in my list. I think he deserves his end.

By the way, each May 2nd, Rowling apologizes for one death in "Harry Potter" novels. She picked this date because it is the anniversary of the "Battle of Howards." So far, she said sorry for Dobby, Lupin, Fred and Snape.

25 Beatles Lyrics: Your Go-To Guide for Every Situation

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Student Life

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

The Best Lines from the Fab Four

And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make

The sun is up, the sky is blue, it's beautiful and so are you

Love is old, love is new, love is all, love is you

There's nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be

Life is very short, and there's no time for fussing and fighting, my friend

He say, "I know you, you know me", One thing I can tell you is you got to be free

Oh please, say to me, You'll let me be your man. And please say to me, You'll let me hold your hand

It was twenty years ago today, Sgt. Pepper taught the band to play. They've been going in and out of style, but they're guaranteed to raise a smile

Living is easy with eyes closed, misunderstanding all you see

Can you hear me? When it rains and shine, it's just a state of mind

Little darling, it's been long cold lonely winter. Little darling, it feels like years since it' s been here. Here comes the sun, Here comes the sun, and I say it's alright

We danced through the night and we held each other tight, and before too long I fell in love with her. Now, I'll never dance with another when I saw her standing there

I love you, I love you, I love you, that's all I want to say

You say you want a revolution. Well you know, we all want to change the world

All the lonely people, where do they all come from. All the lonely people, where do they all belong

Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends

Hey Jude, don't make it bad. Take a sad song and make it better

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away. Now it looks as though they're here to stay. Oh, I believe in yesterday

And when the brokenhearted people, living in the world agree, there will be an answer, let it be.

And anytime you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

I'll give you all I got to give if you say you'll love me too. I may not have a lot to give but what I got I'll give to you. I don't care too much for money. Money can't buy me love

All you need is love, love is all you need

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be

Blackbird singing in the dead of night, Take these broken wings and learn to fly. All your life, You were only waiting for this moment to arise

Though I know I'll never lose affection, for people and things that went before. I know I'll often stop and think about them. In my life, I love you more

Obviously the best superpower.

There have been many lessons learned.

1. The importance of traditions.

2. How to be thankful for family and friends.

3. How to give back.

4. What the word "community" really means.

5. That it isn't about the destination, but the journey.

6. The consequences of making bad choices.

7. To trust people, until you have a reason not to.

8. To be welcoming and accepting of everyone.

9. How to be my own, individual person.

10. How to work for what I want.

11. How to be great at giving directions.

12. How to be humble.

13. To be well-rounded.

14. How to be great at conflict resolution.

15. The beauty of getting outside and exploring.

16. To be prepared for anything.

17. That you don't always have to do it alone.

18. How to be creative.

19. To brush off gossip.

I have never been so thankful to know you.
