Olympic swimmer Sara Nordenstam of Norway has Harry Potter to thank for the bronze medal she garnered last Friday in Beijing.
Quote:

I was very nervous and I needed something to calm me down and I listened to the Harry Potter books because your mind goes off to a magical world and it's great because I was able to keep my nerves in control.

I have read them all, I have seen all the movies and I have listened to the audio books as well. It worked really well today.

Thats pretty awesome! Good way to keep relaxed!

FoxFire 08-20-2008 06:18 PM

Wow :D that's very true. Whenever I need to space out, I read HP :P Sometimes I do this really hard diet thing, and I read HP to keep my mind off of food :P

Wonderstruck 08-20-2008 06:20 PM

That's cool. I find listening to music or watching t.v. is a good way to distract myself before I have a big tennis match. Helps me to not fester and worry about it.

Mari of the Ocean 08-20-2008 06:22 PM

that's awesome!!!!!!!!!!

ravenclawrox*_* 08-20-2008 06:25 PM

Wow, that's so cool! I read Harry Potter for distractions too, sometimes.

Zoe 08-20-2008 07:27 PM

That's awesome! :) It's such a great thing to see that Harry Potter can calm someone's nerves and just take you in another world filled with magic.

RedheadQueen 08-20-2008 07:29 PM

I agree, whenever I am stressed I read Harry Potter and that always calms me down!!! Congrats to her on the medal!!

Shopgirl3876 08-20-2008 08:23 PM

I totally get it. When times are rough and I need to escape, I reach for one of my HP books. And then life is good again!

ebony_wandson 08-20-2008 08:35 PM

When my insomnia is really bad, i watch Philosophers Stone, or I listen to the audio books, helps me to relax!

Ginevra_P 08-20-2008 08:39 PM

Haha!!!

That's nice.

Potter for Minister 08-20-2008 09:15 PM

Whooooo!!! That's awesome!!! I totally get what she means!

Little Trooper 08-20-2008 09:19 PM

Thats cool. I so agree Harry Potter takes you to a magical land that relaces you so well.

hermione714 08-20-2008 10:21 PM

Awesome!! more HP fans!!! I do agree though every time i read the books i seem to drift off, it is amazing really!

Mrs_Molly_Weasley 08-20-2008 11:14 PM

She is right. I do that sometimes when I want to take my mind off of something...

Good luck in Florida! Yeah, I've read Harry Potter too when I get really stressed out. I used to do it all the time in high school after studying for several hours and needed a break to refresh my mind. :)
