8 Harry Potter Spells We All Wish Were Real

I didn't choose the wizard life; the wizard life chose me.

8 Harry Potter Spells We All Wish Were Real
TheRichest

Let's be honest, we have all watched a Harry Potter movie and wondered what it would be like to be a wizard. Unfortunately, we live in a muggle world where the only thing magical is how many times Kylie Jenner changes her hair and how Donald Trump became president. Here is a list of spells I think would be used the most if ordinary people of today's society could use or abuse spells:

1. Riddikulus

This spell allows you to laugh at your biggest fear. Laughter is the best medicine, so whenever you are going through something extremely difficult, use this spell and laugh in the face of fear.

2. Episky

Episkey heals minor injuries. This spell would be useful for your typical drunk college girl trying to walk back to her dorm in heels. Using this spell would probably take a lot of business away from doctors, but let's be honest, if magic was real, who would want to be a doctor?

3. Reparo

With this spell you could fix anything broken with a flick of the wrist. Reparo is extremely useful for that one person everyone knows with a cracked iPhone screen.

4. Aguamenti

Aguamenti allows you to shoot water out of your wand. For when you are trapped in the Sahara desert or simply just thirsty, this spell will come in handy.

5. Tergeo


If you're too lazy to use your Swiffer Wet Jet, this spell is for you. Tergeo cleans up your messes when your parents randomly decide to visit you for the weekend, and you have Starbucks cups and ramen packets on your desk.

6. Alohomora

Alohomora opens locked objects. This spell is the most useful for when you forget your dorm keys or lock yourself out of your car. Using it will stop you from becoming Inspector Gadget trying to open a door with a bobby pin and screw driver.

7. Lumos/Nox

Lumous allows you to create light and Nox allows you to turn off the light. So if you are ever extremely comfortable in bed but the light switch is a mile and a half away, these spells will solve your problem.

8. Accio

If you ever sit at the dinner table and then realize you forgot your fork, Accio is the spell for you. It allows you to summon any object. Now you can bring the gym to you! OK...maybe not (but you can bring Doritos).

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.
