A Muggle's Christmas List

Just A Muggle Girl Dreaming of A Wizard World

A Muggle's Christmas List
Second Year Christmas, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

With the movie, Fantastic Beast and Where to Find Them, the prelude to the Harry Potter series, just being released in theaters this past weekend I felt it was only right to go back over the HP movies and make a list of things that would be awesome to have in the real world.

1) The Marauders Map

You can't tell me this wouldn't be an awesome thing to have. You could easily see where your boss is so you know when it's time to log off Facebook or you can easily avoid that person that just drives you up a wall. This would have totally came in handy during one of those school field trips we took ages ago.

2) A Phoenix, like Fawkes

Fawkes was a truly amazing creature. In the second film we watch him pass away and be reborn from the ashes and then heal Harry with his tears. Oh and don't forget the dramatic exit he helps Dumbledore pull off in the exit in the fifth film. How awesome would that exit be after you walked across the stage and finally received that piece of paper you have been working so hard for.

3) INVISIBILITY CLOAKS!!

This one could be a bit tricky because of course we would want one to use but would we want everyone to have one? It gets a little "Big Brother" very quickly when you think about. While I would like to pinky promise that I would only use the cloak for good, I'm sure I would soon fall short on that promise. The bright side is how awesome this would it be, until you imagine our professors or parents with one...

4) Time-Turners

Finish a four years of college in only two years without compromising our education all while taking out less money from loans, um yes! With a time-turner we would be unstoppable. Gen-eds would so easy and we would be able to take as many hours without the extra charge of $400 dollars. We could have more time to study for an exam or even go back and improve the grade. Teachers may dislike this but its at the top of my wish list.

5) Brooms and Being able to Apparition

Brooms that could fly would be so awesome considering we already have Quidditch teams on many college campuses and they would totally make it more interesting. No matter, brooms would still be a booger to carry around and we all know if you leave a broom laying around some little kid may steal it (sorry had to throw a little Hocus Pocus humor in there). Apparition is going to be the way to travel. If you are running, if you are on an awful date, or if you just don't feel like driving home. This would be the coolest thing in the world.


Write below in the comments if you feel up to it, I want to know what you wish we muggles had from the Wizarding World of Harry Potter. Please though no spoilers for Fantastic Beast, the internet leaks enough as it.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
