(Follow me for a pumpkin-luscious application!)
1. Name: Kim
2. Age: 18
Remember to explain why/elaborate on the following questions.
3. Have you read all 6 Harry Potter Books? Which book was your favourite?
What kind of insane question is this? Of course I have read all of the 6 books, love them like family. Choosing a favourite poses a major problem however, considering I love them all like family its hard to pick which member you like more. All jokes aside, I would have to say HBP, I just found it fabulous. Loved every minute of it. JK’s style of writing is just -ahhh amazing, no other word for it.
4. Which house qualities do you value most?
Determination, I can’t stand it when people sit and do nothing with their lives, because they have to wait for others to make decisions for them. Intelligence is another important quality. I enjoy talking to people who are educated, for they are interesting and have an understanding of certain topics. Honesty and patience, are important to me. I’m fairly impatient but really value my patient friends. =)
5. What are your pet peeves?
Err, snoring. I will never be able to understand why, but I just can’t stand the noise. It also stops others from sleeping..which is never good. I also dislike know-it-all’s, people who no matter what you say will correct you just for the hell of it. *punts them*
6. Based from your personality, what kind of Animagus would you be? (The animal chooses you, you don’t choose it.)
*Thinks of animal*. I’d probably be a tiger cub. Cub’s still have that childhood creativity, and carefree life, but also have to be aggressive, and smart in their predominantly adult world. I’ve been to the zoo and seen the little tiger cubs “play fighting” with each other, and it was the exact image of my sister and I *sigh*. They have the ability to be playful, yet can get angry when it comes to close friends or family, I believe that is what describes me the best.
7. What shape would your Boggart take? (Remember: Your Boggart takes the shape of the thing that you fear the most.)
Clowns. Who ever invented them, deserves to be shot, or have their Boggart follow them around 24/7! What started out as childhood “nervous-ness” (I blame the movie IT, and that one dancing clown at the circus but they are just so scary) has evolved into fear. Ahhh, even thinking about them gives me the heebie-jeebies. Scary little buttons that squirt water, red noses, and really big shoes. *hides*
On a more serious side, I’m not really afraid of things like bugs, or the dark. However the thought of being alone for the rest of my life, miles away from anybody, gives me the shivers.
8. What do you worry about the most and why? (Note: This is not the same thing that your Boggart becomes. Your biggest fear and your biggest worry are two different things.)
I worry about not living up to my own expectations, and disappointing my father who has only the highest hopes for me. I know he only means well, but sometimes he pushes a little bit too hard, and I end up making him upset. Growing up I lived with only my father, and he always set high standards for me. Being much older now, I believe that has carried through. I worry about what he might think about me, if I don’t succeed. Its silly really, but still stayed with me all these years.
9. Would you put your name in the Goblet of Fire?
Hell yes! I love challenges, things that push myself to the limit. If I was chosen for the tournament, I would definitely give it 110%. However it is important for others to know that I wouldn’t put my name in to seem “brave, or to look impressive.” It would simply be a chance to show everyone what I am made off, but mostly it would be to prove something to myself.
10. What do you believe is the greatest weapon you possess? How, why, and when would you use it?
I’ve been told that I have the power to make people do what I want them too. I know that sounds evil, but I can’t help it! I don’t use it too often, only when I believe someone is making a mistake that could hurt themselves and others. I believe that when faced with a difficult situation, intelligence would save the day. Sure strength and bravery are important when trying to defend yourself, but I believe I could underestimate my adversary without resorting to violence.
11. Would you ever want to be a prefect?
Yes, in some situations. It sounds shallow but I believe that in the back of everyone’s mind we all dream of being a prefect, even for one day. I think that I would make an mediocre prefect. I believe it depends on my mood for that day. A prefect needs to be in control all of the time. Not only in control of themselves, but of others too. Some days, I’m very “uncontrollable” and I feel that on such days Kim and prefect should not be in the same sentence. Hehe.
12. What quality do you admire above all others? Do you feel that it is a quality you or the people you surround yourself with possess?
Personalities. People who when they walk into a room make a statement. People who know how to make others laugh and feel comfortable around them. I can’t imagine a world full of boring people *hides*.. I would not want to live in a world like that. I believe that the way I act reflects on my choice of friends, and vice versa. I’m a very talkative and fun person, but I have a serious side. I know when something is to be taken seriously, yet I also know when its okay to laugh something off. My friends are very similar to me, which is why we all get along so well.
13. What are the worst qualities that you believe a person can possess? Why do you feel this way?
Vanity. Self centred, conceded people are just- not cool. I will never understand how someone can judge others on what they look like, and decide what type of person they are. How if someone is gay, they are not worthy of being spoken to. I cannot stand people who talk down to others like they are the “Queen Bee”. It irritates me to no end. If people would just stop and take the time to get to know someone they would probably be surprised that there is more to people than just looks.
14. If you were to look into the Mirror of Erised, what would you see?
A confident women living a happy life.
15. How many people do you consider true friends? What qualities do they have that are important to you? Why are they your friends?
It is difficult to say. I don’t consider many people true friends. Sure I have many close friends who I go to when I need someone to talk to, a shoulder to cry on, or someone to laugh with. A true friend is someone that no matter how far away, and no matter what the situation they will be there for you. I would say that I only have one true friend. We would do anything for each other, and I say that sincerely. We’ve never once called ourselves ‘best friends’ because we both don’t believe in titles. I really wouldn’t call her a friend, she’s more like family.
16. What are your thoughts on Voldemort?
*Ponders*
I think he is an evil man, who is sadistic and craves power. But when you break things down, one time in his life, he had the power to do good. Sure you can argue that he had “evil” in him since birth, but I believe it was his upbringing.
The orphanage, the anger he felt. Maybe if he had been raised in a normal way, none of this would have happened. With that said, it did happen. I know it seems like I am sympathizing with him, but that is not the case. He is the “Hitler” of the Wizarding world, a madman who deserves to be put to an end. A man who if had his way, would be ruling an evil world.
17. What do you think are your main 3 characteristics?
Hmmmm. I can make people laugh easily, I’m intelligent, but have a bit of a secretive side. Kinda mysterious, Oooo. *laughs*
18. What house do you feel you belong in?
This question is very difficult. *Thinks*
I’ve taken many online quizzes, and they all put my in Slytherin, however this ‘sorting’ is much more in depth. I’m very astute, and determined, which I guess would place me in Slytherin. However I value intelligence, and friendship. I guess when you read over my ‘post’ I have a bunch of the traits. I wouldn’t be surprised however if I was stamped Slytherin. I gotta give it to them, they’ve got I really bad rep, which I believe isnt true!
19. "Blood or water" - Which is more important; friends or family?
Water. Though you can argue that your families intentions are for your benefits I believe that sometimes they don’t always know what is best for you. I respect my friends and their opinions. I have a lot of family problems, and though I’m sure they only want the best for me I feel that I can go to my friends for guidance and support. I know they feel that they can come to me as well.
20. How did you find out about us? (House points are given to users who refer you here.)
I was searching through some interests I believe. Don’t really remember, I’ve had the link for awhile.
--I’m very excited to be rated, I hope this was enough information so I don’t get squibbed. That would suck. *crosses fingers*
