20 Signs You're A Harry Potter Fanatic
Huffington Post

The new movie "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" will be launching on November 18, 2016. If you're a die-hard Harry Potter fan you probably already know that. You've known about it since the day news about the new Harry Potter movie came out (and you probably cried with joy). Just because the original "Harry Potter" books and movies have been completed doesn't mean that we've given up our love for the Boy Who Lived. Us HP fans are dedicated and loyal subjects to anything created by the creator, J.K Rowling, so it's no wonder our love for the universe has seeped into our lives. You might be a "Harry Potter" fan if...

1. You've read all the books, multiple times...

2. You tend to overreact when someone says they haven't read the books, but seen the movies.

3. When you find a single sock while doing laundry you know it went to a good house elf.

4. You become the sorting hat for all your friends and strangers you meet.

5. You've picked up a bloody good accent from watching the movies so many times.

6. When you feel lazy you've shouted Accio at objects trying to get them to come to you.

7. You've played quidditch or joined a team in school.

8. You played Pottermore since it came out or even better had the beta version.

9. You've done the sorting test multiple times on Pottermore hoping to get the house you want... and then made all your friends and family take the test as well.

10. You had a Harry Potter themed birthday when you turned 11.

11. You've been or dream of traveling (and potentially living) at Harry Potter Wizarding World in California or Florida.

12. You probably cried when one of your favorite characters died... and admit it at least one did.

13. You have great pride for your house.

14. You have so much Harry Potter merchandise.

15. You know toilets in London can transport you to the Ministry of Magic.

16. You mutter Lumos and Nox as you turn on and off the lights.

17. You have visited or plan to visit Platform 9 3/4 at Kings Cross Station... and will attempt to resist running into the brick wall.

18. You've tried Bertie Bots Every Flavor Beans... and realized they weren't kidding about every flavor.


19. You've tried to figure out what your patronous would be.


20. You've taken away great moral lessons.


For most of us, "Harry Potter" has been around for our entire childhood. We stayed up late waiting for books to be released and movies to catch our attention. We have lived through a battle of wizards and are ready to begin a new journey with the upcoming Harry Potter related films, parks and plays. So bring it on J.K. Rowling; we're ready!

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.
