Laurel Templeton
Name: Laurel
Year: Senior
Patronus Form: Robin
Why?: Laurel's sun sign is in Gemini. Air. She strikes me as kind of up in the clouds, hopping/flitting from place to place, and a bird kind of feels like a natural choice (I mean, Azurcrest).

Everything I've read about robins in a symbolic sense points to their representing joy in change, springtime, singing your own song, letting go and and accepting growth, ability to find pleasure in simple things. These all strike me as v Laurel-ish in different ways. :)

Robins are also some of the first lil creatures you see when winter is ending and spring is on the way.
Their happy memory: Her first (and only) starring role in Annie, seventh grade. She thinks about how it felt to take a bow and be applauded, to know that her hard work had paid off for the production, and the ways in which her creativity was supported by friends and her sister and parents.
Their attempt: Eh. She's mostly here because she's curious, and she has no real background in either DADA or Occlumency. She might look to be performing slightly better than she actually is. That said, Laurel is kind of cheery and good-vibey and high spirits generally, even if lately she's had a lot on her mind (and those things could easily affect her performance if she allows them to). I think in previous years she's probably been successful casting the spell, if only for a short time, or perhaps less-than-corporeally.
Are they in DADA or Occlumency?: Neither.
