Luna Lovegood Character Analysis
Looking into the crowd in school I’ve always seen stereotypical high schoolers, but taking a step back from my normal outlook, I see teens who are just trying to make it in this world. High school is not the most loving and accepting atmospheres, believe it or not. It sadly doesn’t live up to the grandiose expectations that are depicted in movies. Everyone puts on a façade when really the people we are trying to impress are in the same boat. So why are we hiding? If there is anything that high school has taught me, it’s that uniqueness isn’t something to fear or hide, but something to embrace. Because of this, my eccentricity, thoughtfulness, and care free spirit most closely relates to J.K. Rowling’s Luna Lovegood. Luna Lovegood is one of Harry Potter’s most relatable characters. Even though she is a bit …show more content…
For example, when Harry Potter first sees the thestrals (only seen by people who’ve seen death), Luna offers her expertise and shares her backstory to comfort him. One of my closest friends went through a rough bout of depression her freshman year. She confided in me and I told her about my own experience with mental health issues. I, like Luna Lovegood, used my own personal anecdote to soothe a grieving friend. We are also similar because of our artistic and eccentric ways. Luna Lovegood is infamous for her quirky sunglasses and beet earrings. While I don’t don vegetable earrings, I have an eclectic sense of style and artistry. Filmmaking, acrylic painting, and acting are a few of the avenues that I use to express this style. I began acting

    Artisan Research Paper

    My personality/temperament results showed me to be a Performer Artisan. Performers have the special ability to delight those around them with their warmth, their good humor, and their tendency to excel in music, comedy, and drama. They are exciting and full of fun and they have a great social interest in influencing others around them to lighten up and enjoy life. Performers are plentiful and make up over 10% of the population. Performers aren’t comfortable being alone and seek the company of others as much as possible. They are smooth, talkative, and witty, and are quick to make wisecracks and wordplay. They like to live in the fast lane and are lively and uninhibited. Their knack for enjoying life is good for the most…

    Spirit Day Research Paper

    A few years ago, I was just a freshman, who was intrigued by every aspect of my school. I was surprised to see that there is a hang out place called Senior hills, and that’s where most of the seniors hang out. There was also a specific room where most musically gifted kids hang out called the Band room. And lastly there is A quad, where kids love the color black, and could spend all day reading manga. As I wonder where I belong to in this huge melting pot, I met a group of older girls in my geometry class, Jordyn, Hannah, and Ally. Jordyn insisted that I should hang out with them, since I’m new and need guidance. They showed me to my classes, and taught me about spirit weeks and rally days. They said we should use spirit days to show school unity and look cuter than usual. One day, during lunch, when we were all dressed up as hippies in our trendy bohemian clothes chit chatting about what to wear for tomorrow spirit…

    Personal Narrative: How I Lost My Identity

    For about as long as I could remember, my wish has always been to fit in, and be well-liked by everyone. I began acting a certain way that wasn’t me, and even began to lose my identity. I followed all trends and began to lose more and more of my identity as time chipped away. This all stopped as soon as high school began. High school was such a disquieting transition along with all of the new changes I’d be facing. New classmates, teachers, subjects, and responsibilities. I was now required to think twice before every move and concentrate on everything more adequately. All these changes made me begin to realize that I should learn more about my identity and do what makes me tranquil and content as a person.…

    Popular vs Nerds

    High school, the time that many people consider is the best years of their lives. It’s the time when you are trying to find yourself, who you are, and who you want to become. Some people choose to study and be the top student in their class: the classic “nerd”. Others choose to take another route the one I like to call life of the party, these people are usually called the” popular kids.” In other words weather you chose one or the other there are always consequences, of course these could be good or bad.…

    Her Biography

    In high school, I began to tire of the pressure placed on me by my family and their high expectations. I gradually stopped my extra-curricular activities, including music and art lessons, and chose to work instead. I graduated at the top of my class, although I wasn’t valedictorian—perhaps because I didn’t want to give my overbearing family the satisfaction. And then I chose a large public university a lot farther from home than the small private college my parents hoped I’d attend. I wanted to be a small fish in a big pond for a change.…

    You are representing the school at the newcomers assembly and have been asked to give a speech inspiring year sevens to belong, as a year twelve student (based on your own experiences).

    Erma Bombeck once said "Did you ever notice that the first piece of luggage on the carousel never belongs to anyone?" Guess why that is? Maybe it's because the first person . . . stands out. They have to summon up the courage to leave their comfort zones, to enter another realm altogether. And that's probably why no one ever collects the first bag. In fact, high school is all about leaving your feelings of security behind. You have to go for it. You have to rise above others first, and do better. Isn't that what academics is all about? Similarly, someone has to be the first to be different. They have to speak out, to expose themselves to others. They have to in effect, collect that first piece of baggage in the terminal.…

    High School Reflection

    Throughout my hectic high school years I have also grown a lot personally and socially. As a freshman I was one of the shy people that sat in the back of the library everyday. I didn’t communicate much sense I didn’t know anyone that well, but now that I am a senior I am far from shy. High school has showed me that you have to keep positive people around you no matter what because they’ll always be somebody negative around that wants to bring you down mentally telling you can’t, or you’ll never succeed. Everything that I’ve been told positively I will take it into consideration and apply it to my life.…

    Life Lesson

    It all started when I got sent to a different school than my friends my freshman year; first day of school I was feeling as cool as the other side of the pillow when reality gently slapped me in the face and I realized; I was no longer Rosa but instead “the freshman”, the girl no one else other than other freshman cared to get to know, the girl who went unnoticed all day. All of a sudden it wasn’t so refreshing and exciting to see so many new faces, different races and ages all gathered in the same place. The urge to get up and walk away from that place came over me and all I wanted more than anything in the world was to see a familiar face.…

    Everything Changes

    Now, I’m a teenager, and life’s too different compared to childhood years. Childhood years were the time we were learning and copying insights from our parents, neighboors and schools, however it is also considered, to be the most enjoyable time in one's lifespan. Childhood gives me freedom of doing what I want to do, to buy and to have. It gives me fulfillment on my daily routines and it makes me move outside of my shell. Being a teenager on the other hand, is a critical period of one’s life. During this time we, individuals try to adjust and adapt to our new environment. It’s because we experience changes in all aspects of our life .It is also noted that at this time of life we will automatically admire to our opposite sex.

    teenagers and stress

    Perhaps, one of the first values that they hold dear among teenagers is their popularity among peers. It is important to notice, though, that popularity in this context should be seen deeper – as a teenager’s striving for acceptance, for fitting in their peer group. Research shows that if teenagers fail to achieve certain levels of popularity (or believe to have done so), they may feel self-doubt. Disappointment in their own appearance, lack of dates or social status can become those reasons that evoke stress in a teenager.…
