"Ah, music ... a magic far beyond all we do here," - Albus Dumbledore ... again

Hello, fellow Potterheads! 
Today I would love to talk about the score in the Harry Potter movies. I know I have published a post about this topic before, but I can not stress enough to you all how much the score to Harry Potter is one of the most flawless things going on in my life right now.
For me, my Harry Potter obsession has always come in waves. Sometimes I'll think, 'wow, how was I so addicted to a series,' or, 'oh my god, I was one of those people." then the next day I' reading all the books and playing the music on repeat while watching the movies and drinking tea out of my /harry Potter mug. And the happiness that I get on those overly obsessed Potterhead days outweighs the day filled with the embarrassment that I get when I think about how obsessed I am. I am prous to be a Harry Potter fangirl, and there is nothing I can do about it.
I am going through one of my overobsessed fangirl waves at the moment (I read the first book last night within two hours) and I am currently listening to the soundtrack of the first movie on repeat. And, let's be honest here, when you are as obsessed with something as I am with Harry Potter, you can get pretty emotional. For instance, whenever I hear Leaving Hogwarts I bawl my little eyes out. But when I hear Hedwig's Theme, my sad tears suddenly turn into happy tears. The music from Harry Potter can flip my attitude upside down with one note. Props to you, John Williams. 
I can't be the only person on the planet that thinks this way about the Harry Potter scores. When you can envision a scene from the movies or books from just hearing the song that was played in the background, you know that your love (obsession) with that series is powerful. And that you've watched the movies, read the books, and listened to the music far to many times to still be considered a mentally healthy person. So I invite you all to, if you haven't done so recently or ever, grab one of the Harry Potter books, listen to one of the Harry Potter scores scores, and drink some really good tea out of your best Harry Potter mug, and wallow in all that is the happiness of our Harry Potter universe.
Until next time!
