What it's Like to be in the Triwizard Tournament

To be in the Triwizard Tournament is a one in a lifetime chance! It’s a great feeling. Of course everyone wants to be a champion, btu it doesn't matter as long as you have fun. In any case, I am not the only one to adore.

I always wanted to participate in the Triwizard Tournament and my desire was fulfilled. There are many jobs, and they are all very interesting.

I'm going to give my impressions of what it's like to be the Gryffindor champion (I'm not boasting about it):

I love it! When you do the tasks, you are stressed, but when you are well prepared, it's okay. At most, you have a form to fill out before each task, and in the evening you only think about what the task might be.

Plus, you don't even know what the task is. It is revealed on the first day of the task. Until you know the task, you are anxious to know what it is, but you are also afraid of what it is going to be. And especially if you have not prepared well.

For me, the Triwizard Tournament is like taking an exam, only better. For the Triwizard Tournament, you have a lot of time to prepare for tasks (if you prepare day and night), so less stress.

In an exam, you are very stressed, and once the test is before your eyes, you do not remember anything.

In short, being in the Triwizard tournament is wonderful! It is an extraordinary adventure that not everyone can live. Take advantage of being able to be part of it!

And whatever your position, champion or not, I would always be happy to be part of this adventure.

Book review on “Fake Smiles”

“Fake Smiles” is a book by J.J. Lupin-Tonks about a depressed girl that no one likes or really notices. It captured my heart and made me really feel what this girl was going through. It is a mature book and shouldn’t be read by those who can’t handle things like depression to the point of self-harm. “Fake Smiles” is also a story of those who won’t leave even though you tell them to because they know what you want to do and won’t let it happen. Of those who care even when others don’t. I cried a bit when reading this book, but I didn’t stop since it was too real to just leave. It makes me sad since people are feeling the way this girl feels. I would like to take this moment to say something. Don’t harm yourself. It’s not okay. Thank you for reading this. Remember that it will all be okay.

Fun fact

Want to know a confusing fact? Yes, you might want to put your thinking caps on for this one. In the Prisoner of Azkaban, Trelawney refuses to sit at a table with 12 other characters because she would be the 13th and the first one to get up after that would die. In Order of the Phoenix, 13 members of the order are sitting and Sirius is the first to stand. Remember that we take fun facts from the internet and write fun facts like these off of them. We thank those Harry Potter fandom websites to give us inspiration for some articles we write :)
