Hey pple... Min, Nat, Cyn, Clare... thanks... and sorry for all the family drama... just a little mad with my sis.... think that it's time she learn something about being humble... she's too pampered... still not talking to her... (><) maybe I shall not talk to her from now on... saves alot of trouble... dun need to get scolded for nothing every once in a while... this elder sister is quite useless huh? *shake head*
Min!! Welcome! (^-^) *hugz* First time I see you around... must go and read the entry that says ten ways to kill Xiaoting!! very proud of that one! *grinz*
okie.. I'm assuming that everyone who is reading my blog knows who's dying can? okie... shall musk this entry... highlight to read the entry.
Sirius's death is well... very painful. really... I dun see why Sirius needs to die...(in a reader's point of view) and reading him being brought to death is... unbelievable...
At the beginning... we're presented with a man under home arrest... lock in the home where he walked out of since 16, have his mother calling him a traitor, not being able to contribute to the work of the order, have Snape breathing down his neck reminding him that Snape is risking his life while himself is hiding at home... we see a very sad character of Sirius Black.
Then, when Harry came... it seems like the light of his dark life has arrived. He relied on Harry for comfort as much as Harry relied on him. People started saying that he's getting a little eccentric... treating Harry as the shadow of James... I don't blame him you know... ALL his life, James had such a great impact on him... it's probably James that enabled Sirius to not walk into the the footsteps of his ancestors and become a dark wizard himself... he spent ten years with his Black family, more than ten years with the Potters and the rest of the ten years in Askaban thinking about the Potter's death... I can almost feel the emptiness in those ten years in Askaban, James and Harry were the few of his happy memories that kept this man going...
He was so sweet... so 'fatherly' to Harry... he would risk the dementor's kiss for Harry... he would chase away the cats on the road to the train station just to make Harry happy... he's main purpose of life, it seems, is to make Harry happy... (and save) he died saving Harry...
And we're left with a tragic hero... with all his life full of potential... but accomplished so little till his death... he could have been a great wizard (one of the best students of Hogwarts), but he was throw into Askaban because of the betrayal of a friend and probably the prejudice against the Black family (them seemingly a family famous of dark wizards)... he could have loved (I love him...) but he spent his best days remembering the worst of his memories instead of creating his best ones... he could have been freed, but he was locked up in his own home even after he ran free... why have Rowling created us such a character??? to break our hearts?
I understand the importance of Sirius' death in moulding Harry's character... it'll probably be the motivating(?) force that pushes Harry toward the final battle against Voldemort... afterall, Harry can't remember is parent's death... there's probably not enough hatred for him to kill... but seeing Harry perform "Crucio!!" after Sirius's death... I think he is building up the hatred...
But... Sirius death was... too abrupt... really... I mean... we're not even sure if he's dead!! what on earth is behind that veil? *signz*
Rest in peace Sirius, my tragic star...
