20 Things That Prove You’re Still Obsessed with “Harry Potter”

Growing up, I lost track of how many times people told me that my love for Harry Potter was just a phase that I would soon grow out of. Even now, people still insist on telling me that I will. However, if you are a devoted Harry Potter fan like me, then here’s a list of 20 things you do that proves you’re still obsessed with the series:

1. Insist that you should have been leaving for Hogwarts every September 1st at 11:00 am

2. Buy multiple editions of the books (which you already own) to have them on your bookshelf

3. Continually make references to Harry Potter in everyday conversation even if the people you’re talking to don’t like it or haven’t read the books/watched the movies

4. Get upset when there’s still no Hogwarts letter in your mail, despite being too old to attend Hogwarts as a student

5. Spend Halloween mourning the deaths of Lily and James Potter despite how everyone else is enjoying the day/night

6. Name your pets or children after characters in the series

7. Spend your weekends taking part in a marathon… a movie marathon with back-to-back Harry Potter films

8. Buy an endless amount of merchandise, despite struggling to find the room to store all your purchases

9. Write/Read Harry Potter fan fiction because you can’t accept that the series has reached its end

10. Watch any available fan films on YouTube to indulge yourself with more Potter-related content

11. Store all of your phone contacts as Harry Potter characters

12. Take the Sorting Hat quiz multiple times

13. Dedicate hours of your time browsing the MuggleNet site and listening to the podcasts

14. Watch people on YouTube react to the movies because you wish you could experience them for the first time once more

15. Have the Harry Potter theme song as your alarm tone because it’s the only thing that will motivate you to get out of bed in the mornings

16. Visited King’s Cross Station and attempted (at least once) to run at the barrier between platforms 9 and 10

17. Eat chocolate whenever you’re feeling down and use the excuse that it keeps the Dementors away

18. Connect all of your school classes to those available at Hogwarts (Science = Potions etc.)

19. Reenact all of your favorite moments from the series, no matter how strange you look doing so

20. Read this list and realized that you do all of the things mentioned above
