I thought I wasn't going to like this day. I don't really like Gryffindor. They're dumb a lot. Honor and glory and stuff, you know? Those kinds of people get on my nerves. I am that kind of person a lot, and I get annoyed at my idiocy.
But then I remembered that Hermione was almost a Ravenclaw, and I remembered what the Sorting Hat said about how sorting isn't always a good thing, because severing ties so thoroughly is dangerous, and I remembered that there's probably a little bit of every house in every person, and I grew to love Gryffindor more...
...but mostly I just remembered that I like Hermione a lot. She's one of my heros. Also, I have a fair bit of Maroon and Gold to use today.
So, facebook = Hermione today. Caption = "You said to us once before that there was time to turn back if we wanted to. We've had time, haven't we?" (Oh man, Hermione's so hard core...) Status = "Imagine losing fingernails, Harry! That really puts our sufferings into perspective, doesn't it?" (Oh man, Hermione flips a shit so well...)
And my outfit.
I think of Gryffindors as world-traveller types, thrill seekers, and people who fancy themselves bad-asses, whether they actually are or not. But maybe that's just me...
This Gryffindor is also, as it happens, rather thrifty. The t-shirt is just a maroon shirt I picked up from the dollar store for the fabric, originally, and then never got around to using it. The yellow vest is a second-hand store find. The lightning necklace was 79p at a flea market in Leeds, the headband was £1 at a going-out-of-business sale in Edinburgh, the shorts are from Primark (the ones I mentioned yesterday, actually) and the glasses I stole from my cousin. The Anchor necklace, though, I bought a couple years ago from Modcloth. I thought it would add to the Magellan Chic look I was going for.
Envy me and my fashion sense. You know you do.
Until tomorrow!
