in all seriousness, i’m starting college tomorrow and i am full of anxiety

i planned everything so i would arrive early, i made a checklist for my bag… i even planned when to meet up with friends and where to eat

the worse thing is it’s not even the beginning of classes… it’s just the big meeting to tell us not to skip class and all that shit

the older i get the more i realize what it meant for lily and james potter to die at 21. when you’re 11 and you’re reading the books, watching the films, 21 feels ancient. it did to me. even the actors they picked looked like they were in their thirties, because actual 21 year olds standing next to harry in the mirror would have been an excruciating sight i think. actual 21 year olds lined up in the photo sirius shows harry would have been horrible to see. they weren’t adults. i look at 21 year olds now and most of them are still teenagers. and i’m so sad because you know harry turns 21 and then 22 and then 28 and 29 and realizes how terribly young his parents were, how brave they were, how exceptional they were, GOD I’M SAD IM GETTING A BEER

Yooo… Most of my friends are 20-22. Framing it this way just sorta clicked. They were so fucking young. Wow

this is just my opinion but i feel like veritaserum was like way too overpowered. at least legilimency was balanced with “it’s not like reading thoughts” or “you can close your mind” but veritaserum was just too much to me.

so many plot points can just be solved with it, but obviously they aren’t cause that would make for shitty books. but it just ends up being very frustrating when you think about it.

this was my new exhausted late night rant post, enjoy
