Yes, I took the characters of one of my favorite book series and placed them into the groups within another favorite book series:


Abnegation - The Selfless

1. James and Lily Potter - James tried to protect his wife and son from Voldemort. After James died, Lily begged Voldemort to not harm Harry. He killed Lily, but was unable to kill Harry. Lily's invisible mark also did not allow Voldemort to touch Harry a decade later.

2. Ron Weasley - Like the Potters, he was willing to sacrifice his life for Harry when they were just first-years. Thankfully, he was not stabbed to death during wizard chess; just knocked out.

3. Rubeus Hagrid - He has taken care of many animals: Aragog the giant spider, Norbert the dragon, Buckbeak the hippogriff, etc. He also introduced Harry to the wizarding world, becoming his good friend and confidante.

4. Severus Snape - He was misunderstood until the end. Many saw him as a Death Eater who hated Harry. It turns out, he was working undercover for Dumbledore and protecting Harry as a favor to Lily.


Amity - The Peaceful

1. Colin Creevey - From first glance, you knew that Colin was the happiest kid at Hogwarts and wanted others to share in his joy.

2. Neville Longbottom - This sweetheart just doesn't want to cause any trouble. He is extremely hesitant while standing up to people.

3. Luna Lovegood - She's basically an eccentric version of Colin.


Candor - The Honest

1. Seamus Finnegan - During his first year, he would attempt spells (of which he failed constantly) in front of everyone. During his fifth year, he wasn't shy in telling Harry that Voldemort did not return. You always know how Seamus feels about certain situations.

2. Remus Lupin - He would tell Harry the dark truths: the reason why Harry was scared of dementors was because of his dark past, the Patronus Charm was so advanced that he may not be able to do it, that Lupin is a werewolf, etc.

3. Lavender Brown - Who else would blatantly flirt with their crush as she did with Ron?


Dauntless - The Brave

1. Triwizard Tournament Participants: Fleur Delacour, Cedric Diggory, and Victor Krum - They participated in a tournament that consisted of fighting a dragon, saving people underwater, and running through a frightening maze.

2. Sirius Black - He fought in the first wizarding war. He spent 12 years in Azkaban and the dementors never made him lose his mind. He would contact Harry while he was on the run with people thinking that Sirius was the one who betrayed the Potter parents.

3. Draco Malfoy - He had the impression of being mean. He mustered up the bravery of being one of the youngest Death Eaters, but then mustered up the bravery to change.


Erudite - The Intelligent

1. Hermione Granger - She is the brightest witch of her age.

2. Minerva McGonagall - She was also the brightest witch of her age as well as one of the best professors.

3. Sybill Trelawney - Unlike Hermione and McGonagall, she isn't that smart in the traditional sense. However, she is a seer who made the prophecy about Voldemort and Harry.


Divergent

1. Albus Dumbledore - He is the greatest sorcerer in the world, so it's only natural that he strongly possesses several of these traits.

2. Harry Potter - He always has to differ from the rest of the wizarding world somehow.


Factionless

1. Tom Riddle (Lord Voldemort) - sorry, he's just too evil to join a faction.

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.

Barn Pros

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born. A bond between a person and their horse is a bond so strong that it cannot be broken. Everywhere I went I wanted to be around horses, even forcing my family to go on trail rides during vacations. Horses have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember has taught me great responsibility, as well as 14 things that all equestrians can relate to.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

No Matter How Challenging School Gets, You Have To Put Your Health First — A Degree Won't Mean Anything If You're Dead

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.
