Emma Watson Gives a Thumb-up to Her New College Girl Avatar (PHOTOS)
British actress Emma Watson, star of the "Harry Potter" series of films, has a new avatar, a college-going one - dressed in a pair of jeans, boots and an anorak and carrying a college bag, a handful of books and sporting a thumbs-up symbol.
The 21-year-old has put her acting carer on hold for some time in order to resume her studies at Oxford University.
Watson attended the first day of classes much like any other excited girl. At least, that seems to be the idea, given the photograph of herself that she posted on her official Web site.
