14 Times 'A Very Potter Musical' Described College

Unless you didn’t have access to the internet or are not a fan of Harry Potter, you’ve at least heard of A Very Potter Musical. This fan-made musical by Starkid Productions out of the University of Michigan became a viral sensation in 2009. I loved it; my Facebook flair board had all sorts of pins with quotes from the musical on them.

But what about now? Well, it turns out that AVPM is even more relatable now that I’m in college. So buckle up: we’re going back to Hogwarts.


1. When you're really stressed and aren't sure what to do next

Dumbledore is very fond of Zac Efron, or, as he says, "Zefron." Maybe we all just need to consult our own Zefron every once and a while.


2. When you decide to splurge and buy yourself something you really don't need

I mean going to class everyday and studying hard is enough of a strain already, right? Sometimes you just have to TREAT YO' SELF.


3. When you decide that food is the answer to all your problems

Snacks on snacks on snacks. Ice cream, pizza, Doritos like Ginny... no food is safe once you hit a certain stress level.


4. When you reach that point in the semester when you just lose all motivation

Energy is hard to come by when midterms roll around, and finals are even worse. Just put me out of my misery.


5. When you get a bad grade and you're certain that your life is over

Okay, so maybe you don't drown your sorrows in a giant chocolate bar like Ron. But maybe you just eat some peanut butter right out of the jar because that's the stage of life that you're in right now.


6. When a professor tells you that you have to start working on something now because you can't leave it to the last minute

Spoiler alert: procrastination is a thing. And sometimes it's the most powerful force in the universe. So, yeah, staying up until 2 a.m. to work on a project happens. Sorry.


7. When you think that you'll make friends in class but don't end up talking to anyone, only to wonder why you don't know anybody

It can be hard to make friends in a class, especially when it's a huge lecture class. But then again, you have to make friends in case you don't understand the material. College, man.


8. When you're trying to reach the word count on an assignment

"So, this thing happened where it happened, at this time. That time was the time when this thing happened, in this place. This place was..."


9. When you study for fifteen minutes and decide to reward yourself by taking a break

That's enough, right? Right. Time to watch some cooking videos on YouTube. See you later.


10. When you actually know what you're talking about for once and someone questions you

Listen here, buddy. I might not know many things, but I know what this one thing is. So give me this moment, OK? Thanks.


11. When you wake up early to get to a class and find out that it's canceled

WHAT? So I woke up at 7 a.m. and drove to campus and this class is canceled. No, that's totally fine. Excuse me while I mourn my two hours of lost sleep.


12. When you hear that someone is giving out free stuff on campus

Out of my way, peeps. Free pizza? I'm there. Free shirts? Count me in. Tell me when and where, and I will be there.


13. When you realize that someone really attractive is in your class and you try to tell your friends about them

"No guys, you don't understand how attractive they are. You need to be there to understand. Seriously."


14. When you decide to take your college career one day at a time

Yeah it's cool, and it's totally awesome! Take things day by day and don't get too far ahead of yourself. You can do this!


Get out there and make Dumbledore proud, everyone. Study hard, make some memories, and remember: Pigfarts is waiting for you. All you need is determination... and a rocket ship.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
