If I was in Harry's position, I would go with Hagrid because I could not imagine living my life in a cupboard under a staircase with a family that did not want me.<br /><br />2.

Life with the Dursley's versus a life of I don't know what. Easy choice.<br />2. I admit, it would be hard to stop looking for my desire, even if I knew I could never have it. I would hope I would be able to move on and think about real life rather than just a dream.Josie D 7/8https://www.blogger.com/profile/16947208710345756813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3912002613105678034.post-53523105543286450362011-02-28T13:43:31.711-05:002011-02-28T13:43:31.711-05:001.

I would also trust the guy that knows about his birth and showed him magic and that it was "real".<br /><br />2. It depends upon the person you are. If that person, people, or thing you most desired is gone, you might want to spend time with them. But if you know it is not gone, I would say, go for it and try to acheive/accomplish it.Kyle N.1-2https://www.blogger.com/profile/15312765868469341714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3912002613105678034.post-71186259395409546322011-02-28T13:31:06.527-05:002011-02-28T13:31:06.527-05:001.yes i would go with hagrid, theres always a new ...1.yes i would go with hagrid, theres always a new adventure waiting to happen.<br />2.no,it wouldnt be worth it. its like driving forward but u cant see whats so great in front of you because ur too busy looking in the rearview mirrorHannah J. 7-8https://www.blogger.com/profile/12791139945902103785noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3912002613105678034.post-50014930870627268822011-02-27T22:53:01.572-05:002011-02-27T22:53:01.572-05:00I would definetly go with hagrid because if I were...I would definetly go with hagrid because if I were Harry I would see it as anything would be better than the life that I had with the Dursleys.Kaitlyn K 7-8https://www.blogger.com/profile/11233707246179599015noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3912002613105678034.post-79051719418232347562011-02-27T20:51:24.936-05:002011-02-27T20:51:24.936-05:001) Well, something interesting's definitely go...1) Well, something interesting's definitely going on, considering the odd circumstances in which Hogwarts tried to recruit Harry.

If I saw something attainable (like Ron wanting to be Head Boy/Quidditch Captain) I think it would be easier to resist, because you could work towards that goal. However, if, like Harry, I saw lost loved ones, it would be hard stay away from seeing them again, even if they weren't really there.Hannah K. 1-2https://www.blogger.com/profile/11498108138231302274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3912002613105678034.post-87698499030664578002011-02-27T20:16:03.256-05:002011-02-27T20:16:03.256-05:00I would go with Hagrid since I had reasons to beli...I would go with Hagrid since I had reasons to believe what he was saying was true. He is a giant (which don't exist in Harry's world) not to mention he did do a bit of magic with his umbrella, so yes i would go with Hagrid.<br /><br />The mirror of erised reflected a persons strongest desires, which aren't necessarily possible. In Ron's case it would make sense to go out and live your life because being quiddich captain and head boy was quite possible for him, but no amount of living ones life could achieve what Harry wanted (to have a family). Sitting right here of course I would say it makes more sense to live on instead of staring in a mirror, but seeing as I have never been faced with a temptation such as this, I can't be sure.Morgan O 7-8https://www.blogger.com/profile/15511398036767890580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3912002613105678034.post-34166260898540107222011-02-27T19:44:55.526-05:002011-02-27T19:44:55.526-05:001.
