If you could change one thing about the world, what would it be?If everyone married someone from a different race, in one generation there would be no prejudice in the world. I’m not saying I’d force everyone to fall in love with someone just to stop prejudice but I’d love it if everyone treated everyone else how they would want to be treated. And I’m not just talking about people, I’m talking about plants and animals too. To me, animals are exactly the same as us, they just don’t have a voice, and without trees we wouldn’t even be able to breathe.
What makes a person respectable? In my eyes, someone who fights for what they believe in, and has their own opinions is respectable. I hate people that don’t have their own way of thinking and just agree with anyone they have a conversation with. Although I hate it when people are overly opinionated, to the point when they become dogmatic.
What do you look for in a friend? I look for someone with a good sense of humour, who can laugh at their friends and themselves. Someone I can have a proper debate with, and someone who’s sure of themselves and their ambitions. I hate people who just kind of sit back, and watch their life go by, not really caring that it’s being wasted.
What are your hobbies? Oh, I have plenty. Well I love art, and designing (clothes) and I’m doing them both for my GCSE. I also love writing novels, and poetry. At the moment I’m writing my first novel and I have co-written two already, but we’ve nearly finished a third one. I’m a movie fanatic. I rent 2-3 at least once every two weeks. On top of that I have movie channels and plenty of my own DVDs. I haven’t gone abroad much, but I am very interested in travelling, and I would love to visit, Paris (maybe even live there), Iceland, New York, India, Amsterdam, Italy, and a bunch of other places. Lastly, I’m a massive bookworm, and enjoy reading manga too. My favourites are Chobits, Tramps Like Us, and InuYasha.
Have or would you give time and money to a charity? I would love to give money to some kind of charity, and I always give my old toys and cloths away. But to be honest, I, or my family, don’t have much money to give away, and I guess you could say I’m kind of bitter towards charity events because of that.
What is the one thing you would most like to accomplish? I really want to become a known and successful writer, as I love writing and wouldn’t want my talents to go on unknown. I also hope to become really good at art and maybe even become famous for it, or a fashion design, but I suppose that could merely be a hobby.
Who is your role model? I don’t like to become too attached to celebrities I don’t even know, because I find it kind of sad, and wasteful. You should be building up your own personality, not becoming someone you are not. Neither do I look up to anyone I know personally. But I have to say I do love Sofia Coppola as she’s a brilliant director/writer and creates such an atmosphere in her films. I love all of the films I’ve seen that she has written/directed.
What trait most annoys you about other people? I hate people that follow the crowd, and stick to whatever their “leader’s” policies are. I think people should let their life experiences and influences decide what they think is right and wrong and how they live their life. I definitely don’t think you should let one admirable person decide what your ambitions are, and force you to believe everyone should do this because they said so. I pity people who can’t think for themselves.
What do you want to do for a living? As I have already mentioned, I would love to either, write, become an artist or a fashion designer.
If your friend was attacked (by a person, animal, or (in the magic world) beast), what would you do? God, I think I would bloody panic at first, as I’m terrible in situations like that. If I had to take action, I would attempt to phone the police or call for help. If that didn’t work I’d be too stupid to think properly, and worried about my friends safety to think about my own, so I’d just start attacking the person and try to attract their attention away from their victim. Hopefully I could get my friend to run away, and escape the attacker myself. If I couldn't save them, well then it's best I scarper and save myself!
Would you ever use an Unforgivable Curse for any reason? Yes, I would. I have my own safety to worry about. I actually don’t think unforgivable curses are wrong, as long as you aren’t using them for no good reason.
What do you think are your top five abilities or qualities?
1: Independence. I like to work in solitude, as I think I work best at the time. I can become very frustrated if I’m surrounded by too many people, or going out constantly. I like having “me” time as it lets me focus on myself and what I like to do. I’m not so independent that I don’t have any friends, I’m so independent that I value my friends more. To be honest, I think some things are a bit more important that friendship, but I am more than happy to become close to someone just as long as they know when to give me some space, or time. Which is what my close friends usually do.

2: Determination. If I want something, I will get it. I’ll work for it, without a thought towards anyone that it might effect. I know this is a bad thing at times, and that’s why I like to work alone. If there is anything I want the most in my life it is success, and you won’t get any of that if you think you’ll just wake up one day with a record deal, or your book published.

3: Creative. I love new ideas, I love change, I love meeting new people- I’m not narrow minded in the slightest! I always like finding out what crazy ideas someone has come up with, I believe that as long as your idea is original it could work. I’m one of those people too, I’m always coming up with strange things to do, or wear, etc. Everything would be boring without creativity.

4: Absolute. There is no way I’m not scared to say that, “I believe that this is wrong, and I would love to try and put a stop to it.“ Although I can be a bit self-righteous, or opinionated I usually let people have their say when I’m debating. I won’t let anyone manipulate me into thinking an issue I believed in was stupid.

5: Courteous. Although I’m quite stubborn and don’t want to believe that I was wrong, or unfair when it comes down to winning back a friend I truly value I can eventually admit defeat and apologise, although it take a lot of work and I feel undignified.
What do you think are your top five weaknesses or worst qualities?
1: Tranquil. Sometimes this can be seen as shyness, stupidity, or constant depression. Although I am neither of those, I’m just not a loud, hyperactive, bouncy person. Well, behind closed doors I can be but usually I enjoy serenity, but have become a bit more talkative since secondary school.

2: Hostile. I’m not so hostile I become aggressive, but I can get really angry when misunderstood, and I guess people get scared of me. I don’t mean to be it’s just the only way I feel I can be openly upset.

3: Clumsy. This is usually in the process of work I find “pointless” or “boring” I make a lot mistakes, and become very disinterested towards my work. I find that only the things I find interesting are worth while.

4: Critical. When it comes to why a person is upset, or worried about something I only think they have the right to be upset if it is for a worthy reason. I always think someone is crying out for attention and there life is too perfect to be moaning about. Although I do not always express this, when I do I end up hurting people. A lot.

5: Cautious. I always expect the worst in people, and find it hard to accept someone’s friendship. I expect they’re pretending to be my friend, or playing a trick on me. I need to really get to know someone before I really take their friendship into consideration. I guess you could say I have trust issues.

Define in your own words the following key traits:
Courage: When someone has felt fear, but chosen to overcome it.
Loyalty: Someone who has chosen to stand by a person that they share a friendship with and show nobility, and honestly towards them.
Intelligence: To be mentally ready for different tasks and obstacles that await someone.
Ambition: When someone gives the impression that they are determined to achieve there deepest desire, and to cherish success.

Name: Ella.

What house do you think DOESN'T fit you? (This question is optional for those who feel they just DO NOT fit in a house. Please explain WHY.) People have claimed I show different traits from each and every house, so I am unsure.
Where did you find out about us? I think I was looking at wildknight_20’s user info.
