please&thankyou;;
Name: Grace
Age: 12... Yes, 'for reals'...
If you could change one thing about the world, what would it be?
It would be nice if we could finally establish a mutual understanding between all nations. Then there wouldn't be all this unnessecary death or pain. How many more wars do we need to fight to get peace?
Who is your favorite Hogwarts teacher?
Hagrid. I love animals(or beasts, in this case) and would love to learn how to care for a hippogriff. Then go off riding one of them to wherever I please. Of course, part of me would be scared to death of it coming and eating my head...
Who is your favorite character in Harry Potter?
Something about Sirius Black just speaks to me. His snarky attitude and sarcasm make me laugh. But what I truly appreciate is when he's misunderstood/treated by his own family and is still able to laugh and smile with his friends. It's an inner strength that I wish I had.
Who is your least favorite character in Harry Potter?
There's quite a few, but I horribly dislike for Peter Pettigrew. He kills his own friend's life to extend his own by a little. Dastardly acting like a rat, he follows simply what he's told by people who threaten his life... Probably his mind thinks, 'What can they do to me when they're dead?'
What makes a person respectable?
There are quite a few, but I think the most important is their emotions. If they can feel compassion, or sadness, or anger, it makes me respect them. If we feel sad, we often strive to feel better because it hurts. If we feel happy, we often strive to do the same because it is pleasant to be feel that way. If we feel love, we want to be with the person as much as we can. Emotions make people work and animate. They make us smile, laugh, and cry.
What is your take on religion?
I'm only slightly religious, I guess. It's good to have a person, even if their existance is denied by others, that you can rant to or share things to. It's good to have something or someone you can pray to and take a little off your chest. All people have the right to their own beliefs.
What do you think about house elves?
They clean, cook, and follow your orders. They're helpful. I don't like the thought of people abusing them, though. Although giving them all the rights of a normal human might be a little absurd, I don't think we should treat them as dirt. It's horrible to do that to someone who does things for you.
What do you look for in a friend?
I don't look for anything, actually. People become my friends because they often make the first move..heh. If they take the time to try and get to know me and become my friend, I think that's someone you can be friends with. If they care that much, I feel touched. So often, I simply make friends 'just like that' without any sort of requirements.
Would you rather have friends and family or money and success?
I'll have to go with friends and family. I don't want money because then people would come after my SSN and the sort. Money doesn't matter when I'm dead. And I have a short life line too. I don't really want success either, because then there will be people who will be jealous of you... It scares me that there might be people who hate me. What if people have assassins?! I'm unsure of having friends either... They can backstab me, and I'm a bit paranoid like that... What if THEY have assassins?! But I do love my family. It doesn't matter what they act like, because they're my flesh and blood(not literally, of course...). So, even if my friends have assassins, they would protect me, right?
If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?
I think there are quite a few. I think I want to change the way that I don't have any motivation to do much. I think it's because I'm lazy, apathetic, and mostly pessimistic. I'm often anxious about what will happen if I do something and get myself down... Of course, there are times when I do things without thinking and it turns out to be horrible too.
What do you feel is your best quality?
I don't think I have a 'best quality.' I think it's when I'm genuinely happy. It doesn't happen often, but then I just grin like the Cheshire Cat or a shark and then fidget a little. And when I'm like this, I don't say pessimistic things that gets everyone else down on mistake. So, it's good for me and everyone else, you know?
What are your hobbies?
I like drawing, because I doodle my fantasies and such. And I like listening/singing music. Especially the ones with expressive lyrics. Most of the times, I listen to Japanese music so I don't understand. But the feeling that they have almost breaks my heart. And when I find translations on the internet, it makes me like a song that I didn't like before. And when I find a subbed promotional video, where there's the translation and the singing, I start crying... If something moves me that much, I think it's noteworthy(because I don't cry often..). Also, I like video games, talking, and shopping for myself. I enjoy a bit of pessimistic poetry too. Heh, I'm not a normal child afterall.
Do you want to have children?
Um, should I really answer this question? I do, but I fear my short lifeline. What if I suddenly die and leave them to some rude orphan parents like what happens to Harry?! I don't want that to happen to my dear children! Of course, I fear also what a horrible parent I would be... I would feel sorry for them because I'm a hypocrite.
Have or would you give time and money to a charity?
I don't know. I barely have those things that are valuable in life. Maybe, if I could spare some, I would. Of course, I would probably give it to one to save endangered animals or children in rural areas. I can give money, but I'm a bit wary of my time.
If your friend was attacked (by a person, animal, or (in the magic world) beast), what would you do?
My friend would obviously not let them attack standing down, right? If it was a person, I'd whack and bite them, no matter how pathetic I may look.. If they were aware of the magic world, then I'd use spells and hexes. But if it was an animal or a beast, I would try to lure it away before restraining it...I don't want to hurt something that's not aware of human morals.
What is the one thing you would most like to accomplish?
To die happy. I don't want to be around forever or things get boring. But, I don't want to cut myself so I bleed to death while crying. That's why I want to be happy when I leave this world. Also, I don't want people being wrapped up about my death or anything...
Who is your role model?
I don't think I have one. I'm influenced by many, but I don't think I want to completely idolize someone because then I'll only be known in their shadow.. or so it seems. Of course, I do admire this one person because he simply amazes me...
What trait most annoys you about other people?
I don't know, but I get easily annoyed by a lot of things people do. I think the biggest one is the failure to follow instructions. You just seem to be talking to the wall and then once you're done explaining they ask you to help them on every step. Then I become Grace-zilla for their incompetent hearing and utterly refuse to help them... Heh..
What do you want to do for a living?
Um, the truth is I want to pursue the racy life of singing for a band... Heh. Of course that's only if I conquer my absolute apathy/stupidity/pessimism... The person I likerespect a lot has been able to reach my heart through his songs. If I can do something like that as a living, to make people realize things and feel such emotion, then I would be happy.
Would you ever use an Unforgivable Curse for any reason?
It's like asking, would I kill someone for any reason? No. The most important reason is that I would probably be too scared to utter those words. Then I would probably not be able to survive the utter guilt that I killed someone. I mean, even if it was Voldemort or Peter Pettigrew, they were still human capable of feeling and living. You would wonder, 'what if I didn't kill them?' Maybe, they would turn out to be better? There's always a chance.
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.)
Actually, I think it's okay whichever house I go in. The bitter truth is that I fear my intellect will be challenged and ridiculed in Ravenclaw. I'm not intelligent at all...And then I get into low, anti-social, depression mode in my little dark corner and it gets all horrible like that because I can't do things that they can do simply...
What do you think are your top five abilities or qualities?
(This is very hard... My low self-confidence keeps me from seeing these things)
1) Genuine Happy~
2) Emotions
3) Loyalty
4) Humor
5) Love... although, this could be emotions... But I feel my love is really important. Hehe...
Where did you find out about us?
Some links on other people's websites... I don't remember. x_X; I'm sorry.
Why do I like answering questions like these? It makes me feel important. Haha!
