OMG it's so hard to pick!! BF told me that Luna reminds him of me so I picked her, although part of me really wanted to pick Neville because I adore his character! I do love Luna though so I'd be ecstatic if I could be her I love her indepent, free spirit. She is so confident in who she is and doesn't feel the need to conform. She is also very sweet and smart (even if she does believe in some crazy things).
If someone picked Voldemort, could they be young Voldemort (Tom Riddle) because that could be fun but I enjoy having a nose :P
ETA: This is one of my favorite Lunar moments: She is OWNING that lion head!
I picked Luna, too. Strange! There's something about her that's sweet, something that's a little odd, but also very cool. She's that super awkward girl you went to school with, then you bump into her 10 years later, or open a magazine and find an article about her and find out she has this amazing life, doing something quirky and fun, traveling the world, or being a best selling writer of romance novels, or something equally unexpected, but awesome.

I definitely agree with that and she's one of kind. Love her! "Nobody's ever asked me to a party before, as a friend! Is that why you dyed your eyebrow, for the party? Should I do mine, too?" - Luna\
I literally laughed out loud... I agree the choice of Voldemort should be young Voldemort as Tom Riddle w/ nose lol May I quote? "I was in the Restricted section and I came across.."
I picked Hermione because I'm very much like her. Maybe not *quite* as hard a worker but definitely very school-focused and a HUGE perfectionist (this is, however, something I'm trying to curb). I loved watching her grow up and change from 11 to 17 throughout the books. And I think she and Ron are completely adorable
And if the stormy weather came...I'd just kiss you in the rain...
If we're sticking purely to the choices listed, I would choose Luna for essentially the same reasons Danie listed.
But I would really want to be Fred or George. They're an awesome duo, and I love the shenanigans they get into. Their antics never fail to crack me up, and I think they're two of the most under appreciated characters in the series.

I picked Hermione. Her character is very relatable for me - hard working, clever, smart and perceptive. And I'd want to be in on all the action but not have the pressure of being "the chosen one" like Harry is.

I cried too :'( There were some people in the theater that I thought needed to chill though. Seriously, one woman was like uncontrollably sobbing. It was really annoying.
I picked Luna after thinking about it for half a second.
How great would it be to be that self-assured and at peace with the world?
