We might not all be wizards, but that doesn't make Harry Potter any less relatable.

The Boy Who Lived can do it all, from going on life or death quests to hunt down Voldemort (because everyone does that, right?) to deal with having a crush on a friend's sibling.

Below, 15 times Harry Potter accurately described all of your own thoughts about your life.

1. When you went out the night before but still decided to go to your class the next morning.

You begin to question yourself and all current and previous decisions as you struggle to keep your eyes open in the middle of history class.

2. When you see your ex with someone new and you know they downgraded.


Honestly, it's a confidence booster. Except, also, gross. It's a fine line.

3. When you pass a test that you didn't even study for


Maybe you do have magical powers, after all.

4. When you're out and you're feeling yourself and you see someone cute.


You hope you look more cute than creepy as you attempt to make some eye contact there.

5. When it's past midnight during finals week and you just can't keep studying.

"Stressed" spelled backward is "desserts." Need I say more?

6. When your friend tells you she's talking to *that* guy again, even though she keeps saying they're done.

You both know where this is going.

7. When you unexpectedly run into your crush and you suddenly forget how to behave like a normal human being.

"I promise, I understand social cues!" Just let me love you.

8. When you and your friend are both busy and it's been a few days since you last saw them.

Forget about the "you up?" text, this is way more dramatic.

9. When your life is just a general mess and you know there's nothing you can do about it at this point.


Listen, it's too late now so you may as well just sit back and enjoy the ride.

10. When the professor announces there will be an assignment due or an exam as soon as you come back from break.

Wait, isn't cruel and unusual punishment illegal?

11. When you accidentally spill "the tea" and instantly realize it was probably a mistake.

Does it still count as a mistake if this isn't the first time you've done it?

12. When your last class ends and it's finally time to start your weekend.


That feeling of relief never feels any sweeter than on a Friday afternoon.

13. When your friend comes to you after going out and you get to hear all about the mess they made the night before.

Get that popcorn out, because it's story time.

14. When someone asks you if you want to go get something to eat.


Why is that even a question? I mean, seriously.

15. When you didn't do any work over the weekend and reality starts to hit you on Sunday.

It's all fun and games until you realize just how much work you're left with on a Sunday night.


So until your Hogwarts letter comes, all you can do is make the most of your own semester and continue to live it up-whether it's through playing quidditch, searching for horcruxes, or anything in between.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
