If you grew up with Harry like me, I'm sure you can relate šŸ˜‰


1. You can't seem to give up the hope that one day your acceptance letter will arrive and Hogwarts will finally welcome you home.




2. Every time you see an owl your heart leaps into your throat.

3. But when it's a snowy white owl, your heart cries instead.

4. So many magical places are hidden behind plain brick walls, and you've taken to poking odd looking bricks with your wand, just in case.

5. You kind of wish your house had a cupboard under the stairs.

6. Wanting to feel the freedom of flying on a hippogriff... or a broomstick... or motorcycle

7. You've been involved in many arguments over what the movies should and should not have left out.
.
8. You'll find yourself feeling extremely disappointed when you purchase a wand and can't actually jinx anyone.

9. You refer to everyone you hate as being "such an Umbridge".

10. You will pledge allegiance to the DA.

11.Every year on Sept. 1, you will feel a ping of sadness at realizing you're not on your way to Hogwarts.


12. You need a Room of Requirement on a daily basis

13. Hoping your kids would know more about The Tale of Three brothers than Cindrella

14. Buying loose leaf tea but never managing to see the Grim, or much of anything, in your cup

15. Wanting some Liquid Luck before all major life events

16. Wishing empty plates in your house would get magically refilled

17. Wanting to wander through the Forbidden Forest

18. You will live by the words and advice of Albus Dumbledore.

19. There are no Dementors to blame for your addiction to chocolate

20. Wanting to have kids just to introduce them to the series

21. People thinking it's odd that you have a favorite Weasley twin and can tell them apart

22. You won't be able to think about Fred and George without tears swelling up in your eyes

23. There isn't enough Butterbeer in the world to soothe your soul after Fred's death


24. Constantly wondering what you'd see in the Mirror of Erised.

25. Sending an angry text is nowhere near as satisfying as a Howler.

26. When people say, "You still like Harry Potter?" and you whisper, "Always," and they don't get your brilliant inside joke.

27.Knowing a GIF is the closest you'll get to magical moving pictures.

28.The glaring absence of Peeves in the films.

29. Never truly knowing what your Animagus or Patronus would be.

30. The under-appreciation of Narcissa Malfoy and the sacrifices she made in the name of love and family.

31. When other books mention the series and you're reminded of its legacy.

32. When you hear *doo do doo do doo* at the beginning of each Harry Potter movie, you lose your shit.

33. Spending all of your time in the library trying to live up to Hermione Granger's standards.

34. Being traumatized by the death of your favorite character.

35. Failing to find a Harry Potter cocktail recipe that tastes like the Butterbeer of your dreams.

36. Still not being over the fact that you were the right age, but lived in the wrong country, when they held auditions for the films.

37. Getting into 'ship wars with your friends over minor characters.

38. You cling to your original pronunciation of Her-my-oh-knee.

39. You're still frustrated at the ridiculous nature of time travel in Prisoner of Azkaban.

40. You don't think Ron Weasley gets the credit he deserves.

41. You find yourself drawn to creepy toilets, hoping to discover the Chamber of Secrets.

42. When you binge the films and can't break out of the British accent.

43. Lamenting the loss of fantastic book quotes when you watch the movies.

44. Instead of becoming a writer with original ideas, you keep writing fanfiction.

45. People think you're weird, not cool, when you write with a quill and ink.

46. You still whisper, "Lumos," when turning on lights and, "Alohomora," when opening doors... sometimes your significant other thinks this is weird and suggests you attend therapy (and you consider whispering, "Stupefy," under your breath at them).

47. You'll never really get over the death of Dobby.

48. You refuse to give up hope for a Marauder's era series.

49. Wishing you could read the series all over again for the very first time.

50. Part of you still wishes the last word had been "scar".

51. Wondering where to find purpose in your life once the series has ended.

53. You'll spend the rest of your life rereading the books.

54. And they'll get better each time.

55. When things are said to be "the next Harry Potter," you cry because there never will be one.

56. A piece of your heart breaks every time you finish the book series.

57. But then you realize you can just start over...
