2. If you had access to a Time Turner, and did not have to worry about any restrictions, nor about whether you were going to return or not, what would you use it for and why?
There are so many things I have done and said that I would like to change, just because I regret them. ;~;
3. Under what circumstances would you use an Unforgivable Curse?
Saving my life, saving a loved one, or saving a cat from death.
4. Under what circumstances would you work for Voldemort?
... Only if he was going to kill a loved one unless I worked for him.
5. What class do you think you would excel in at Hogwarts? What do you think would be your favorite?
I think I would excell at Defence against the Dark Arts. But my favorite would be potions~!
6. You have to make five Horcruxes. What significant objects would you choose, and why? Why are these objects so important to you, that you would be willing to stick your soul into them?
Mallets - My pair of mallets are important to me because I learned to play the marimba with them, and I spend so much time practicing and continuing to learn, that my mallets are a passion
Marimba - Reasons listed above
My glasses - They help me see. And partly picked out for my love of anything John Lennon or Harry Potter (anyone else think Harry was influenced by the success of John Lennon and his odd love of round glasses. WTF?)
My computer - Just because I'm addicted. xD
My copy of Order of the Pheonix - My favorite book in the Harry Potter series. ^^
7. What would your Boggart form be? Why?
Spider - Just because whenever I see one, I run far to another place/room/whatever. And I scream.
8. You can only store one memory into your Pensieve to visit over and over again. Which one would it be? Why?
When I finally got phraise from my band director. Maybe just he spent all this time trying to teach me and I really sucked at playing any percussion insturment. @_@
9. You have stumbled across the Mirror of Erised. What is it that you see? Why?
I'd say my grandparents. Only because I never really had any. I had my grandpa on my dad's side until he died while I was in second grade. All my other grandparents died before I was born.
10. What are your hobbies/interests? How do these activities contribute to your personality?
Music - I'm a band student, and how this contributes to my personality is because it's made me have deeper feelings for certain things, as expressions and feelings can be expressed through music
John Lennon - Having a deep passion for some of the things he did and the music he wrote has made me think about how some things like the Vietnam war and the War in Iraq as stupid and why we should act for world peace, for there to be no more wars, and for the world to share equality. On another note, his British sense of humor has made me a bit sarchastic. xD
Photoshop - This has made me look at art and appericiate it with a different point of view
11. If you could change one thing about the world, what would it be?
Wars - Because we shouldn't have war, for any reason. Because of wars, we have a pointless war being fought for oil, covered up with the alleged wepons of mass destruction. Oh come on, we shouldn't be in Iraq, at least be in Afganastan to capture Osama Ben Ladden. He was behind 9/11 anyway. >.<;
12. List three major qualities you look for in a friend. Why are these qualities important to you?
Personality - I'd like them to be true to themselves, instead of being backstabbers or whatever. I've already been hurt already by people who make themselves out to be my friend, but all they really wanted to do was use me. D=
Intrests - I like people who have similar intrests as me. I'm bored if we have nothing in common.
Difference - I like people who are different, who are not boring people and they stick out from the crowd. They intrest me, because how they act is intresting.
13. Who is one person, real or fictional, that inspires you? Why?
I cannot really narrow it down to one person. So, I'm really going to have to say two people.
John Lennon - Reasons stated in a previous question.
My band director Mr. Ross - Just because he is everything I really want to be, brave, he speaks his mind, he doesn't rally care what other people think about him, and he's just so funny.
14. Outside of Harry Potter, what book has had an impact on your life and why?
Memoirs of a Geisha - Because it is about a girl trying to fiful her true desires, and spends years trying to accomplish them
15. What excites you most out of life? What is it that makes you feel so fulfilled and enlightened about it?
Playing and performing music, because I just feel like I could express anything I want while playing the marimba. I can express sorrow, happiness, joy, suspense, excitement, love, ect.
16. What do you think are your top five positive characteristics?
Open-mindness, wit, creativity, kindness, and hippie-ish views~! =D
17. What do you think are your top five negative characteristics?
Temper, shyness, in-ability to speak my mind, fangirlism, and obssesion with inamate objects.
18. Do you believe in fate or free will?
Fate
19. If someone close to you was in danger, what would you do to save them? This could be anything.
Anything, this includes giving my life or working for Voldemort. :/
20. What is one important life lesson you have learned so far? What did it take out of you to realize this?
Not to play vibraphone with plastic mallets. Mr. Ross killed me for this. To not take life for granted. Just to live for today really. I learned this by being hit by a car a few years back.
21. You have stumbled across five magical wells. One is the Well of Common Sense and Logic, the second is the Well of Creativity, the third is the Well of Optimism, the fourth is the Well of Physical Strength, and the fifth is the Well of Beauty. You can only drink from one well, but once you do you will be endowed with that ability for the rest of your life. Which well do you think you would definitely not need, and which do you think you would want to drink from?
I definately do not need the fourth or fifth well. As for I do not care for such things. I already has optomistic traits, so I'll narrow it down to the first two. Between those, I'd choose The Well of Creativity, because I could be more creative than I already am. =D
22. How did you find out about hogwarts_unity? (If you remember a certain person tell us so we can award points.)
I believe it was from sweetthumbelina.
