I think it is safe to say that almost everyone in this world has heard of the famous Harry Potter, and his alma mater Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Everyone wants to be a Gryffindor, like Harry, and has admiration for the other houses. Well, I should say admiration for all the houses except for house Hufflepuff. Whenever you think of the houses you probably think brave Gryffindor, ambitious Slytherin and smart Ravenclaws, but what makes Hufflepuffs so special? Well the answer to that question is simple. Hufflepuffs are loyal, and loyalty is something that shoulden’t be underestimated. People think that Hufflepuffs are too nice, pathetic, stupid and the leftover losers from the sorting hat. But, when you lose everything and your Huffepuff friend is the only one who is still on your side, I think you might reevaluate how worthless Hufflepffs really are. As a Hufflepuff myself, I can give you ten reasons why Hufflepuff is the most underrated house at Hogwarts.

1. Cedric Diggory was a Hufflepuff.

You know the very popular guy who just happened to be chosen by the goblet of fire to represent the whole entire institution of Hogwarts in the Tri-Wizard Cup and successfully made it to the very end of the tournament. (Plus Harry, but the rules don’t apply to him apparently.)

2. House Hufflepuff has produced the least dark wizard compared to all of the other houses.

Peter Pettigrew was a backstabbing lowlife loser and, oh yeah, was also a Gryffindor. Don’t even get me started on the evil Slytherins *cough* Voldemort *cough*.

3. Hufflepuffs are just nice people in general.

Hufflepuffs are only mean when you cross them, and when I say mean I mean horrid. Don’t cross a puff. After all that is one of the few things that Slytherin and Hufflepuff have in common. They're not afraid of toil.

4. Our house ghost is not psychotic, uptight or annoying like the others.

Nearly Headless Nick is downright annoying, all the Grey Lady does is complain and correct everything you do and you are worried staying with the Bloody Baron can get...well bloody. The Fat Friar is just chill and doesn’t care unless it’s dangerous or wrong.

5. Our common room is beside the kitchen.

With the Hufflepuff commons so close to the kitchen, it means they have unlimited access to free food? I think yes! If you don't think that great you need to reevaluate.

6. Basically our whole house stayed to fight the Battle of Hogwarts.

Not much more to be said.

7. We have Nymphadora.

You can not seriously say that you did not like her spunk.

8. Our mascot doesn't give a shit

Our mascot is a honey badger, need I say more?

9. J.K. FREAKIN’ ROWLING IS A HUFFLEPUFF

If that isn’t enough to be impressive then I don’t know what is, oh and did I mention she admitted it is her favorite house?

10. We put all slander aside, and still stand proud as Hufflepuffs.

So if anyone ever tells you that you’re just a lame old Hufflepuff, just remember that you are just and loyal. Those patient Hufflepuffs are true and unafraid of toil.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
