A Geeky Gal has made a 30-day Harry Potter Challenge that she posts everyday. The lovely photo below is hers. I have decided to schedule this post for later since not everyone on my timeline is a Harry Potter fan and I’m afraid they might get overwhelmed by the bulk of Harry Potter blogs. With that in mind, I have decided to answer her challenges daily, however, will be publishing it as one post in time for Harry’s Birthday! YAY! You may want to partake so if you’ve got time to spare, here are the rules (click me).
Day 1 – When did you first read Harry Potter?
Day 2 – What is your Hogwarts House & is it fitting?
Day 3 – Which pet are you bringing with you to Hogwarts & why?
Day 4 – What spell have you always wanted to use?
Day 5 – What character do you think you are most like?
Day 6 – Which two characters would complete your trio of friends?
Day 7 – What shape would your patronus take?
Day 8 – What memory of your own would you view in the Pensieve?
Day 9 – What would the Mirror of Erised show you?
Day 10 – What Hogwarts class would be your favorite & why?
Day 11 – Divination: Interpret a dream you’ve had recently.
I have a blog about this HERE.
Day 12 – Defense Against the Dark Arts: What would your boggart be?
Day 13 – Muggle Studies: What muggle skill would you like to learn?
Day 14 – Charms: Create your own spell.
Day 15 – Potions: What would Amortentia smell like to you?
Day 16 – Transfiguration: If you were an Animagus, what animal would you be?
Day 17 – History of Magic: Who is your favorite Hogwarts ghost?
Day 18– Herbology: What magical plant would you want in your garden?
Day 19 – Care of Magical Creatures: What creature(s) do you find the most fascinating?
Day 20 – What are you wearing when out of your robes at Hogwarts?
Day 21– What edible treat(s) would you like to try in the Wizarding World?
Day 22 – What would a day in the life look like for you as a Hogwarts Student?
Day 23– What quote defined the Harry Potter series for you?
Day 24 – What other fandoms would you recommend for Potterheads?
Day 25 – How would you feel if the wizarding world were to exist today?
But for Voldemort’s case, I am certain that he’s pure evil.
Day 27 – What do you think the moral message is in Harry Potter?
Day 28 – Rowlings’ Annual Apologies: What would you change about the series?
From Harry Potter Fandom: The Mirror of Erised is a magical mirror, which, according to Albus Dumbledore, shows the “deepest, most desperate desire of our hearts.” The name “Erised” is “desire” spelled backwards, as if reflected in a mirror. The happiest and most satisfied person in the world would look in the mirror and see a reflection of them, exactly as they were, for they would then have no one and nothing more to yearn or desire for that the mirror could ever show them. But of course, it is intrinsically inherent for human nature to desire something greater than one’s own self – meaning that an event wherein the mirror fails to carry out its intended purpose rarely, if at all, happens.
I won’t change anything drastic, but I will bring more story about the Mirror of Erised.
Day 29 – How has the Harry Potter series influenced your life?
How has it influenced me?
I am a fan. I thank God for HBO Max because the Harry Potter series is now easily accessible through that.
It’s influenced my choice of places to visit. I always check for an opportunity to see the Wizarding World, so traveling to a place where there’s Universal Studios would be a plus. It’s influenced me in a way that I easily feel drawn to people who like Harry Potter –books and movies. It’s like you’ll be an automatic bff if you feel like discussing HP with me & yes, I get turned off by fakers. I mean, those who claim to be a fan and know nothing beyond the main characters. I am that kind of fan. I know.
I am also very determined to introduce this to Brooklyn and I am glad that he feels interested about it. I mean, he’s chosen his preferred house already and look, he’s even worn the costume!!!
Lastly, the book’s a getaway for me in case I want to break free from the real world, I’d like to think that it’s a place where I can dream about all the crazy possibilities on magic and life as a non-muggle. I mean, in my fantasy, I am definitely not a Squib.
Day 30 – Epilogue: Did the original series get the ending it deserved?
I felt it lacked something. A longer one could have been better?
I wished Draco’s shift of allegiance had been more emphasized & part of me wished that Sirius had come back to life…
Ron and Hermione’s love team is something I liked the very first time their shipping’s been implied, I wish I can say the same for Harry and Ginny’s. Their sudden pairing had always puzzled me.
Pardon my last minute rants, it’s just a sentiment from a fan who wants more and couldn’t get over the fact that it has ended, hahahaha! That’s basically it!

What is wrong with being Hufflepuff?

Nothing 😅
They didn’t produce a known villain and they’ve got the least bad wizards 💃🏾
I initially wanted to be with Harry hahaha. But no matter how much I tried to amend my answers, they’d always sort me there.
That’s the only time I’ve researched about the House and around 2016, I still remember it— I have accepted and proudly labeled myself a huffy… we’ve got a group back then, all Hufflepuffs… it had been nice,they’re all nice people ❤️ but we’ve drifted apart after 2 yrs due to time difference
