Dumbledore. He was just full of love for Harry and pretty much every character, and his kindness is something I will always strive to emulate. I think he was a beautiful beautiful man and changed the lives of so many (not including his sister oops)

Dobby. Again, full of love for Harry and kindness to all. He was brave, he stood up for what was right and always did his best to help.

Hermione. She didn’t care when she was made fun of, she never dumbed herself down to be liked or for the sake of the boys, she was an incredible character with heart and flaws (in the books that is) and always fought for what she believed in. Plus she was bloody BRILLIANT.

Ginny. Again, in the books. She was one of the coolest characters and always my favourite growing up, because she was just this girl who really grew into her own and decided she wasn’t going to take any BS from anyone, including and especially not her brothers. She never apologised for dating whomever she pleased, she kicked butt at sport, and was a great friend to Luna and Neville, who others often mocked or ignored. I think she, Hermione and Luna are great feminist role models.

Hagrid. In all honesty I think Hagrid deserved to be Albus’s namesake over Snape (although who didn’t?). He risked his life time and time again to help Harry, he was kind to all, and extended that to all living creatures and animals where others chose not to. He had the biggest heart out of anyone and wasn’t afraid to show emotion. I’m really glad Jo decided not to kill him off. 

Other finalists: James, Sirius, Draco(!), Ron, Molly, Luna.

So ourearthwithoutartisjusteh said she tagged me in this little questionnaire thing and her 11 questions were just so cool and self-reflective and thought-inducing that I thought I'd do it too. After all, who doesn't love talking about themselves every once in a while? Okay, here we go:

1. Your favourite book? When it comes to books, I am a fickle lady. Paper Towns by John Green, however, holds a very important place in my heart. It's his most underrated novel, one that taught me the dangers of mis-imagining people (something I am guilty of doing always). 2. Who is the last person in your missed calls? My calm, brave & endlessly interesting friends Stephanie, she was trying to find me at Uni today.

3. Who do you count on? This chick called Emma, I like to call her my best friend but really she's my soul sister. She's empathetic and kind and man, I wish you could meet her (not because she's an imaginary friend or anything, just cause well...she's mine and I'm not sharing!) 

4. One word for today. Legalised!

5. What makes you feel wonderful? Concerts. I swear, if I had the money, I would just spend it all on concert and music festival tickets. Just that moment, where everyone is pushed so close to one another, and you are all singing together, seriously, jesus it's good! 

6. What question do you love to answer? Where did you see yourself in 10 years? 7. Who do you want to know better? My grandmother who has just moved in with us because my grandfather passed away. The past few days have been lovely, she has told me a lot about her teenage years, and though it's hard to imagine, I'm really glad to know my grandma was once as lost as I am, and look at her now! She's a grandmother for God's sake!!

8. If you could travel anywhere tomorrow, where would you go? New York City, do you even have to ask?

9. What was the last thing you did for the first time? I donated blood for the first time today! It was okay, a little scary in a foreboding sort of way, but afterwards they fed me cookies and wrapped my elbow up so it looked like I had a cool battle wound!

10. Who inspires you? Tavi Gevinson, she's everything I hope to be when I grow up (and she's younger than me), from the way she writes to her creative outlook and her feminism and her style and her entrepreneurship, she's just the coolest rookie out!

11. Drugs? What does this mean, it's so elusive? Are you offering me some, or asking me whether I've done them before, or whether I support them, or whether I'm a pharmacist? 

ooh good ones! thanks love xx
