10 Signs You're Actually Hermione Granger

1. You Know What You’re Doing, Even When You Don’t.

Just like Hermione, you’re a quick thinker. You can anticipate events and improvise when you need to. Your friends can always rely on you to resurrect a situation, and you’re often referred to for advice. While you may not lead a snotty professor into the Forbidden Forest in order to escape her grimy wrath on chance, you are resourceful in your own way and use your street smarts to get ahead.

2. You Feel the Need to Correct Others.

With so much knowledge racing through your mind, you just have to let it free. Trivial things such as grammar mistakes deeply bother you, and you find yourself constantly debating over being nice or right. You’re only trying to help, but you might come off as condescending or arrogant sometimes. But it’s not your fault they don’t know how to pronounce Wingardium Leviosa.

3. You Know When to Take Action.

Being such a perfectionist can gain a lot of enemies, and you have a very clear line for how far you’re willing to let other people go. You’ve all but submitted a patent for the technique you use to shut down your opponents, and you, like Hermione, know when to outsmart them, and when to just punch them in the face.

4. You Can’t Stand Being Average at Something.

You’ve been praised your whole life for being superior in everything that you do, but occasionally, you find something that you absolutely can’t master. You know your niche and don’t expect to defy expectations in your weak areas, but underperforming in your Divinations class may literally cause you to rage quit.

5. You Always Know What to Say.

A lot of friends turn to you in times of need because they know they can rely on you for a judgement-free, cathartic conversation. You have the unique ability to turn your friend’s sadness into motivation and have a way with words that leaves them feeling calm and revitalized.

6. You Read Three Books at a Time.

Wherever you go, your bag overflows with tales of lands far away. You keep your books around, no matter what genre, because you know they’re the best way to learn even more. You immerse yourself within the stories you read and find yourself looking up from your alternate world hours later, not regretting a second of it.

7. You Don’t Take Anything for Granted.

While you are revered for your talents now, you weren’t always gifted with them. You’ve never forgotten the way your life has changed for the better ever since the realization of your dreams. You’ve discovered your own distinct kind of magic and don’t plan on ever letting it go.

8. You Dare to Be Different.

Whether you have always been this way or have learned over time, you are unapologetically you. Regardless of what anyone thinks, you know that you are something stellar. You’ll continue to create your own path and pave the way for others to follow in the future.

9. You Sometimes Intimidate People.

Your unique combination of the four houses may result in people fearing your power; it makes others uncomfortable that you know that you have the ability to change the world. Like Hermione, you keep your head down and work through any doubts, allowing you to eventually achieve all that you desire.

10. You Know That Intelligence Is Nothing Without Bravery.

You know that even if you’re the smartest person in the world, it’s useless unless you put your gifts to use. Your Gryffindor side is your outlet and protection for your ideas and you are sure to make positive change within your community and, by extension, the entire globe. Using your talent to make the world a better place is the most fulfilling and satisfying kind of magic to ever exist.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
