<li><b>What sort of profession in the wizarding world would you choose and why?</b>
If I had to honestly choose a profession, I think I'd be a Herbologist in the wizarding and real world. I love nature, and I love to grow things. And if I could especially grow things that would help people make potions, or cure illness, that would make me especially happy. That, and I enjoy working with my hands. I get so easily bored, so to be able to grow and make something would be a kind of trophy to all my hard work. Or killed me, whatever. Hopefully I can grow nice herbs and flowers and remember my earmuffs for any screaming:) If not, I'd easily be an actor, musician or of some sort. Or at least be on stage. I love to shine and have an audience!
<li><b>You have to venture deep into the Forbidden Forest one night. Pick one Harry Potter character other than Hagrid and one object (muggle or magical), besides your wand, that you'd want with you.</b>
Hm. That's a toughie. I'd more than likely bring Hermione. She knows her way arond a spellbook and I imagine, if I were to ever attend Hogwarts, the only things I'd be good at would be anything related to me using my creative side. Memorizing spells simply isn't my forte, if you know what I mean. So, let's say I was pretty good at herbology. I'd know what plants to stay away from and she would hack if the ocasional shawdowy figure or mean looking spider thing decided I was the menu choice for the evening. Of course if herbology didn't happen to be my thing, I'd probably end up being with Hermione anyways, because she can keep me preoccupied as a friend instead of making me nervous like Harry or Ron would. Or Draco. Draco is a bad choice. He's probably shank me when I wasn't looking, because I'm too upbeat. As for item? Probably an invisiblity cloak? I mean c'mon. If all else, run like you stole Lindsay Lohan's purse!
<li><b>If you had the opportunity to live forever, but your family and friends did not, what would you choose? And if you did choose to live forever, what would you do with eternity?</b>
Not in a million years. In fact, if I could choose, I'd like to die before all my family and friends do. I am horrible with grief and loss, and as seflish as it may seem, it's my honest truthful feelings. Besides, if you live forever, what much is their to live for. I live because I know I'll die one day. I say what I say without holding back, because I know one day I may not get a chance to say it again. It could be tomarrow that they're gone. But if you live forever, I know I'd stop living for myself. Because I know that I wouldn't die, but I know they would, so I'd start trying to please them instead of myself. Which is no.
<li><b>If you could travel back in time to one point, when and where would you go? Why?</b>
I'd like to go back to the roaring twenties. It seems like those days were the only years where their were no crashes, wars, and everything was ok for a while. I mean, that and the dresses they wore were beautiful.
<li><b>What HP character do you identify with most and why?</b>
That's another toughie. Personally, I think that everyone has a bit of everyone in them. If I had to stick with someone, I'd probably stick with Ron, sadly. I'm almost always ignorant to the situation, a bit on the slow side, but I'm passionatly protective of my friends and family and will do anything for them in the end. I also think I have a bit of Nevile in me. People tend to underestimate me when it comes to alot of things, but if given the chance, I'll gladly prove you wrong. I'm also on the nerdish side and tend to not fit in with the norm of what a girl my age should be or look like, but I manage to keep up with basic times and fashions.
<li><b>What would you see if you looked into the Mirror of Erised?</b>
I will probably see me up in front of people, playing music or making music that makes people really happy. Music that makes people want to dance and smile and bring about peace and inspire art and creativity in everyone that hears it. I can see myself making something that everyone will like and use and will let people remember my name. I'd also see my family standing around me telling me they were proud of me and all the hard work I did to get to the place I'm at. Hopefully I'll have a decent amount of money, but only enough to live on, beacuse I hate having too much money. I think it makes people greedy to have too much, but I'd like enough to help my family through all the trials they may have.
<li><b>Do you believe that moral actions should be judged by the intentions behind them, or by the consequences they create?</b>
The intentions behind them. I mean sure, people don't always think before they act. They think that they know what their doing or saying and they turn out making the situation worse. But I mean, I'm way to nice to prosecute someone for trying. Because God knows, in the end all you can really do is try. You can never promise you'll be the best. But if you try, everything will turn out ok. If they know their doing it for the right reasons, even if someone gets hurt, sometimes things like that have to be done. But on the other side, if it hurts more than it helps, it's probably better to stay at home in your pajama's. :D
<li><b>What was your ideal job as a kid? Has that changed? What is your ideal job now?</b>
When I was little, I wanted to be a nurse. It's my family's profession. My great grandma, my grandma, and my mother are all nurses. When I turn 16 in the March, I am taking the class to get my legal CNA license. This is not to say I want to do this for the rest of my life. When I get older, I'd like to act unprofessionally in a local theatre troop, and as a living, I'd like to work in home care, taking care of elderly people in their homes, and helping them live independent and happy lives while learning what their lives were like and providing them with company and something to look forward too.
<li><b>If you were able to invent one spell, potion, or charm, what would it do, what would you use it for or how would you use it, and what would you call it?</b>
If I had to invent one single potion, it would be a mix of all that potion-y goodness and one bird's feather to give someone proportional wings that they could use to fly with. The wings would come from your spinal cord, and painfully sprout from your back, but quickly and can easily be numbed. Because they are attached to your spine, it would be like moving an arm. They's be angel wings that were the colors of the bird's feather you put in the potion (like you'd have peacock wings if you used a peacock feather, dove wings for dove feathers, etc).. and had to be longer and stronger the heavier you were. You'd look almost like some sort of bird I love the idea of being able to fly away and be free so my potion would be called "Aerowingus" and it wears off when you says they the counter charm "re-ground" that would cause you're wings to rejoin with your spine, which wouldn't hurt as bad, but still sting like a bitch.
<li><b>If you were to face a boggart, what would it turn into? And what does it turn into when you throw the counter-spell, Riddikulus?</b>
If I were to face a boggart, it would more than likley turn into a raging fire. I've always been wary of fire, despite beeing a firebug at a young age. But when I was little this was after my firebug stage, like 5 or six, my family was camping and my uncle dropped a bottle of lighter fluid in an already brightly burning fire because he's the only dumbass in the world that want's to make a fire bigger than it has to be. I got caught up in the fear and the awe of the heat and light, that I couldn't run back. I just stayed in my seat until my mom snatched me outta the folding chair and tossing me back to my Grandpa, who droped me on the gorund. Using the counter spell, it'd probably turn to a drizzly rain or just a puddle of water because I love water.
<li><b>What do you look for in a friend?</b>
In friends, I simply look for people who try to listen. I like people who aren't selfish and don't alway talk about themselves. I look for people who are real and don't whine and get all pissed about little things, and aren't afraid to talk about things or say things that may make people mad or feel uncomfortable. I want friends who are a bit on the wild side but still care about authority and respect it too an extent, but also know how to joke around and not be serious. Yes, they must have a sense of humor, but the same humor I do. Making math jokes just makes me want to put a spork in your eye. I also like people with a decent amount of intelligence, but I hate people who correct grammar. I know I'm not smart, get over yourself, you Grammar Nazi! Hail
<li><b>What trait most annoys you about other people?</b>
When people get annoyed when you ask them what they said. I hate this because my hearing is blown from all the loud music I've listened too, and I find it hard to hear the first or second time around, especially if you mumble. And I hate people who think you're dumb if you don't understand the joke or something and they just say "never mind." That just makes you feel worse for not catching it. People that bitch and moan whenever they don't get their way, and people that need to have everything go perfect can also kindly jump off a cliff. People that mistake my optimism for ignorant bliss or immaturity: no. I've lived in enough situations to know smiling through it makes it alot better, and theirs always some good in most intentions. Or at least a reasonable explanation.
<li><b>What do you think are your top five abilities or qualities?</b>
Optimistic at appropriate situations - I know how to make people feel better about their problems because I can put myself in their situations and make them feel better and give them better advice.
I think on my feet. I act as a hobby and frequently we forget our lines. Usually, more times than not, I am the one who jumps on it and tries to make the situation more like a real conversation until we pick up our lines again. Although I hate lying, I will to wiggle out of an uncomfortable situation if I don't know what else to do. I tend to make things like quick thinking situations run smoothly, but afterwards, I usually bumble and freak out over what just happened.
You know those people that say "I hate when...?" - I make those people have ulcers. As in, I can take and deal an insult and make it sting. Without or without being racist. You think I'm a fat whore, I think you're a tramp with an eating disorder and no emotional depth. Simple as that.
I'm creative - I love to write, paint, draw, all that jazz. I hate NOT using my brain. I like to figure out problems & I tend to do so easily. Ask me to do a math problem though, and epic fail.
I'm just a naturally nice person - I don't like to hurt people. I want people to be happy.
<li><b>What do you think are your top five weaknesses or worst qualities?</b>
I have an emotonal streak. I cry at all the worst times. I tend to be a big baby over alot of things. One of my big baddies is that I'm very blunt. Hurtfully blunt. Like, make you cry blunt. If people say they don't like things about me, I turn around and say too bad, which tends to not get my alot of fans. Hmpf, oh well.
I tend to have a nasty angry side which goes along with the emotional side. It isn't bad unless I get very very angry, in which case I casually break shit until I feel better. Effective yet expensive.
I'm extremly glutinous and lazy. I don't like work. At all. Work is bad for Emmy. Procrastination is my God.
I'm not brave. At all. I cry when I have to make decisions that hurt people. I hate expressing feelings of love and lust because I'm afraid to get hurt emotionally. Not physically, just emotionally.
I'm very manipulative. I'm not above bribery to get my way. And vice versa. I'm so easily bought. I have been know to offer to drop on my knees in Gamestop to get the cheaper price on a game.
