Hopefully this brightens a dreary day for someone. I know Harry Potter will always cheer me up, especially Hermione. She's been a really important female role model in my life, especially as a scrawny, graceless bookworm in elementary school. I think she showed me that being "nerdy" is a trait to be valued, and I'm grateful for that. And for J.K. Rowling, of course. If you like Harry Potter, I suggest you check out wizard rock; it's a completely legitimate genre of music, I swear. I suggest "The Bravest Man I Ever Knew," by the Ministry of Magic. (Bring on the tears.)
Until next time,
Ana
