Why You Should Watch "A Very Potter Musical"

Wizards, witches, good guys, bad guys, and an intense battle to save the world all while maintaining friendships and (barely) doing school. J.K. Rowling takes you to another world. The funniest thing to come out of her books is the parody on YouTube.

A small group of Harry Potter loving college kids wrote and performed a parody musical of the series. With a budget of only around $150 ($50 was spent on a huge chocolate bar Ron eats), the scenery of the musical is left mostly to the imagination, but the quality of the songs and plot exceeds the cost of the production.

1. Woe is Harry

The musical picks on Harry the most, obviously, and they exaggerate his troubles of staying with the Dursley's and being an orphan, versus being cool and well-known at Hogwarts with his BFFs.

2. Hermione the nerd, geek, and cause of any problem.

Hermione is bashed on throughout the musical non-stop for being so studious and such a realist.



3. RED VINES.

What really molds Harry and Ron's friendship.

4. "My Father will hear about this"

Draco Malfoy is played by a woman, and is overdramatic in every way possible.

5. Dumbledore from Jersey: Hippie and Zac Efron lover.

Dumbledore is a chill and Zefron loving gay man...

6. Voldemort... has a heart?

Quirrel and Voldemort have a tight bond.

7. Really, really pretty... Ginny!

They make fun of how Cho Chang has blinded Harry and Ginny obviously should be his GF

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
