Back then, I would visit any kind of active HP forum or website since I was very deep with the series and the fandom. I even went to some non-English websites dedicated to HP. One in particular, Potterish, because I really liked how pretty their website layout was at the time.

Just a year after me getting an LJ account. :D I think we kind of entered the LJ game at the right time, to be honest. Since they stopped doing invite codes (ironically months after I had gotten one to create my account) the site started growing and gaining a lot of activity and popularity.
