I envied my family for not resembling the Russos from Wizards of Waverly Place and fantasized about receiving my Hogwarts acceptance letter in the mail. Despite the numerous horror stories I encountered in history class about the treatment of women accused of witchcraft, I was prepared to take the risk. Although I've outgrown many childhood goals (farewell to my imagined pop star career), my desire to cast spells, stroll with a cute black cat, and ride a broomstick remains strong.
