Ultimate Girl Heroes: Harry Potter Edition

Am I the only one who frequently leaves all of my homework for Sunday night, only to realize that ABC Family Channel is having a Harry Potter weekend? I then try to skim dense readings on utilitarianism and game theory while watching the series in its entirety. Needless to say, not a lot of work gets done. (What television takes away from my studies, Wikipedia always manages to make up for.) Well, that happened to me this weekend and inspired me to write a Harry Potter edition of Ultimate Girl Heroes, because who among us is not still waiting for our acceptance letter to Hogwarts?

Luna Lovegood
Everyone's favorite Ravenclaw, your child-like innocence is so endearing that you have many friends. You definitely make your own rules and dance to the rhythm of weird. I can't quite decide if you're albino, but after a year I stopped caring and decided I like you anyway.

Hermione Granger
You're likely the smartest person in all of your classes and while you take pride in that, you don't rub it in everyone's face.You may be the only female in history to ever be friendzoned, but don't worry. Your guy best friend will wake up. Eventually.

Bellatrix Lestrange
I know what you're thinking, Bellatrix is a bad guy, so why would she be anyone's hero? While I will admit that Bellatrix is 100% pure evil, she is also 10000000% pure awesome. Helena Bonham Carter is a rockstar. But I digress. You are a powerful force with a dark side.Okay, actually you're all dark side. You will turn against your family and friends in an instant. But you do have some fabulous hair.

Minerva McGonagall
The woman. The legend. You are the ultimate teacher. You run a tight ship yet still manage to show compassion. A force to be reckoned with, you love to help others hone their crafts. You love being a team player yet don't mind taking the reins when necessary. No one takes Quidditch more seriously than you, and you understand the importance of crushing Slytherin at every opportunity.

Ginny Weasley
I just don't get you. I mean you're fine, nice enough, decent looking. You have no discernible personality and make every situation infinitely more awkward. But for some reason you capture the heart of the chosen one. Warning: with so many protective older brothers, I'm afraid a Miley rebellion could be in your future, please don't.

Molly Weasley
Your patronus is a lioness because you're constantly looking out for your family. You are friendly to everyone, but if someone tries to hurt the ones you love, they better watch out. You also understand the importance of stretching a galleon and know that hand-me-downs make the world go round.

Nymphadora Tonks
As a tomboy who goes by your last name, you spend your time keeping up with the boys. You understand that you can't always trust your family, so you surround yourself with friends. You were lucky enough to find true love and start a family, but you are always willing to risk your life for what you believe in. So what if your hair inspiration is Nicki Minaj?

*Happy September 11th everyone. Don't let today be filled with sadness but with pride to be a citizen of the greatest country in the world. Merica.
