The 16 Most Iconic Professor Snape Moments
Nerdist

Alan Rickman, an incredible actor who is most well-known for his role as Severus Snape in the Harry Potter series, died on Thursday at the age of 69. Here are some of Rickman's most iconic Professor Snape moments that really proved that both Snape and the Harry Potter series are always in our hearts.

1. When he first introduces Harry in his usual condescending tone.

"Mr. Potter. Our new celebrity."

2. When he Iconically says to "turn to page 394."

3. Any time Snape whacked Ron or Harry on the head.

Every single time.

4. When he throws the moonlight pun on Lupin during the Marauder's Map night scene.

"Well, well. Out for a little walk in the moonlight, are we?"

5. When Snape physically shielded Ron, Harry and Hermione from Lupin as he changes into a werewolf.

6. When Umbridge questions Snape about failing to become the Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor, and he responds with unparalleled sass.

7. When he yells at Harry and Ron for the flying car Incident.

"I assure you that were you in Slytherin and your fate rested with me, the both of you would be on the train home tonight!"

8. When he accuses Harry of stealing from him to make polyjuice potion.

9. When he deflects McGonagall's attack and you see the sadness in his eyes for being in that position.

10. When he brings to Harry's attention how life isn't fair.

He lived an incredibly lonely life, yet always for the good of others.

11. When he was tired of Hermione's bull crap.

12. When he refuses to injure Harry when Harry tries to attack him for Dumbledore's death.

13. When Snape led Harry to the sword of Gryffindor.

His Patronus was a doe. So was Lily's. I'm holding back tears.

14. When he urges Harry to take his tears to the Pensieve to understand everything.

15. When he sees Lily in Harry during his last breath.

16. Literally the entire flashback scene when Harry realizes Snape's bravery and the love he had for his mother.

Alan Rickman brought to life the beloved Snape who everyone wept for and saw as arguably the most important character of the series. He will live on for always in our hearts and in our marathons.

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.
