One of the things I have always been intrigued by regarding the world of Harry Potter is the Daily Prophet and the way it works and looks on the page. Upon exploring newspaper designs on SND.org, I found a newspaper that has taken on the design three times. It seems all over the place (the fact that the people in the photos move doesn't help), but they are just trying to fill the space in an intriguing way, right? It is also really cool how the newspaper kind of ties together events in the series. Whether it be true or not, the characters in the series look to the newspaper to find out what's going on. I guess they don't have Internet in Harry Potter land.
Here are some examples of the Victoria Prophet's take on the series' newspaper.

Day 21 – Something that makes me happy
I have decided to finish this challenge on arbitrary days. So today is Day 21.
Harry Potter makes me happy. I have read all of the books at least 3 times each, I have seen most of the movies at their midnight premiers and I adore the magical story. Of course, I'm not as crazy as this guy, but I could challenge anyone to Harry Potter trivia. My friends and I even read the seventh book out loud to each other on a a roadtrip from San Antonio to Columbia, Mo. Not only did it keep us awake, but it also made for an entertaining ride home.
This is even a newsworthy post because I went to the midnight showing of HP Thursday night. I loved being in a theater with hundreds of people that also love the franchise as much as I do. Being there with some of my besties would have been even better, but I'll take what I can get. I ended up going with one of my co-workers and his girlfriend, and it was actually pretty fun.
It's crazy that the story is almost over. When I finished the book, it kind of felt like the end, but not really because there were still movies to be made. Now, though, is really is nearing the end. It's bittersweet, just like the ending of Toy Story 3. I have grown up with these characters, and seeing the ending come to life will be exhilarating. I will see the last movie with Jayme if it kills me.
I love Harry Potter. It makes me happy.
