Ten Tips

I have a lot of ideas that you can't find elsewhere, so I thought I'd post a few of them along with a couple others in the form of Ten Tips.
1. Read the books and watch the movies. They will help you get an overview of her character. The movies will give you a visual, while the books are the original stuff. Take mental notes on how Hermione acts.
2. Love school. It may seem hard, but it is essential to her character and also something I have learned to do. Think of it this way: you're already there, so why not make the most of it? If you have to go anyway, there's no point in wasting it.
3. Talk like Hermione. I know it sounds silly, but seriously, it helps. First of all, if you don't already have a British accent, don't fake one. That's just weird. What I mean is don't swear or anything like that, and throw a couple of wizarding phrases in, like "Merlin's pants!"
4. Dress like Hermione. I will soon update this and give ten tips on how dress like her, but for now I have to keep it short. Dress neat, not too casual and not too fancy. Make sure what you are wearing is comfortable and easy to move in, but not ragged or worn out.
5. READ. It is the most important (and most obvious) thing you can do. It expands your general knowledge, which is always good. Read all sorts of topics and genres, including and especially nonfiction. If you get textbooks for school, read a few chapters ahead at home every night so you will already know everything the next day.
6. Go to bed and wake up on time. Your body needs at least 8 hours of sleep. Don't achieve that by going to bed at 2 in the morning and waking up at 10, go to bed and get up early. It is better for you and makes it easier to get up when you have school.
7. Don't use text abbreviations. They make you look not as smart as you actually are, and if you do it too much, uneducated. Worse yet, they can start to slip in to everyday life. You don't want to get a bad grade because your essay was filled with u's and lol's. Not worth it, and there's a simple solution: just don't.
8. Don't be afraid to be yourself. The popular kids who don't care about school won't have a good job in 20 years, but you will as long as you stay away from them and focus on getting good grades. Hermione is a nerd, and you should be too.
9. Keep a clean room. Organize all your stuff into bins, and every so often get rid of junk you don't need anymore. After you are done using something, put it away as soon as possible. Also, make your bed every morning. Very important stuff.
10. Value friendship and family above everything else. Be willing to make sacrifices for the ones you love. In the Deathly Hallows, Hermione modifies her parents' memories for their own safety. They go above everything, even school. (which comes in a close second)

Happy Hermione-ing!!!
