Factions, Not Houses

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.

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.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.
