I'm sure you'll get a lot closer to the drama people as time goes on. You guys spend so much time working together and you're so expressive that it's hard not to become close. That's the way it seems to me.
Teehee! Yes, he is adorable, isn't he?! He seems more like a huggable thing, though. ;D

Like a big huge teddy bear and is alive and talks to you! but that's actually really freaky. So not like that.
The Real world of TD is a lot like the real world of HP. Take Jules and James for example. They're like Fred and George Weasly only in a different house. Ginny Weasly seems quite a bit like Hermoine. I've always gotten that vibe from her. Pkia and En are Dumbledore only split in two. And although we don't know much about Pansy Parkinson except that she's a Malfoy groupie, I've always thought she's very flirtasious with guys so that's like Jen! What do you guys think?

I think there's another thread like this, but still fun to talk about. TD is another kind of real world for most of us.
Heh yeah. Hermione is like the current-Ginny, while Willow is a lot like the early-Ginny. And Jules and James...they're like an evil Fred and George. I suppose Jen could be like Pansy, too, except without the obviously obnoxious part.
I think Pkia is more like McGonagall, but I can't pinpoint who En is. He's sorta like Dumbledore but not. And he's sorta like Lupin but not. I'll have to think about that one.
Who else...? What about you, Ti? *thinks*

You are right! Hermione is like a current-Ginny. She’s very social and nice to everyone…
However, I must put down my foot here; Jen is so much better than Pansy. I guess you can argue that we, in fact, don’t know what Parkinson is all about, but right now… Her shrill laughter gets to me. It strikes a nerve.
Now I know that we don’t know much about Lavender either, but I’m connecting her with Jen. I believe Ms. Brown is that popular one in the books?
Oh, Ti... Wow, that's a difficult one. I'll have to think on that.

Um, this sorta relates to my life. Having recently studied Nixon recently in my US class, I've decided that he would've been a Slytherin.
Yeah, so Nixon's administration was clouded in secrecy and paranoia, mostly because he was always so worried about getting re-elected. He tried to shut himself away from the public and his cabinet, opting only to confide in a few very close friends and associates (like Kissinger). Personality-wise, Nixon was a loner yet knew how to wield power. Many thought his solitary ways stank of corruption and manipulation, and in ways, they did; he spied on Democratic opponents, kept an "enemies list", and of course there was the whole Watergate thing. But Nixon did focus himself when it came to foreign policy; he was incredibly determined when it came to China, the Soviet Union, and Vietnam, even if it meant bombing Cambodia to end the fighting. He took the hard course and followed through, even though there were plenty of people criticizing him and cursing him, all the while keeping most of his plans to himself.

-grins- You and your history. I learn so much from talking to you... it's delightfully insane.
-bounces around from a while-
Guess what? Guess what? No... no picture yet, but something else. I met your friend's "Harry"!!! I was eating his cookies today for lunch! He looks so cheery on the box! Him and his ducky. I believe it's a Korean snack? Mum bought it in a Korean market. ;D Teehee!

Oh really? I wasn't sure where that thing was from. That's cool.
This is a repeat of what I said in the very, very first post, but I wanted to iterate. That one teacher who I said was Snape? Yeah, some of my friends have him again this year and told me what he had recently said, and I thought it was so hilarious and Snape-ish.
Some parent: Why did my kid get an F? Him: Because there's nothing lower than an F.

Wow, that's great! It's a new favourite quote! Reminds me of my old history teacher, but of course, I've ranted on about him already.
My Algebra II/ Trig teacher is very much like Mr. Rogers, but that has nothing to do with Harry Potter so I'll stop now...
Oh hey, I think I've found a Ron.

Really? Did I tell you about that one time at lunch when I saw Ron standing by the vending machines? He had the tallness and the red hair and the not-so-great clothes and everything.
So what's your Ron like?

So...what else has happened recently...all I can think of is the PoA movie since I just watched it less than a week ago. I now have Sirius and Lupin sleeping in my bed again. Wow, that...doesn't sound good. Well, actually, it sounds great, but not quite right. ;D Don't worry, they're just toys. But I can dream...
Hey, Willow, don't think I forgot so easily. Whatever happened to that pic you were going to get of your Tom Riddle?! Don't tell me you chickened out...

Really? Do you have a big bed? Wait, did you say toys? -eyebrow raise-
Heehee... He's in the yearbook... And you won't believe what his first name is! No, it's not Tom, but it's close... TIM!
However, I never got a chance to take a picture of him and I didn't buy a yearbook... Perhaps I should go ask my friend to loan it to me for a while...

I'm going to avoid that question. For, um, legal purposes.
Didn't buy a yearbook? Sounds sketchy to me. Who doesn't buy a yearbook? That's, like, the only thing to look forward to near the end of the year. I'm just kidding. If you can, see if someone will lend it to you. And then scan and share. Hehe.

Yeah... no yearbook for me.... And on a second note, I still have yet to get a hold of his picture. But I will! One of these days..
Hey! I found a Hagrid! His name is Chris and he was a teacher for the SAT courses I was taking. He looks just like our lovable half giant! Well, except for the fact that he isn't as tall and he has reddish hair... But Chris dresses like Hagrid, he has the shaggy beard and he's just as funny.

I finally have his picture!!! It took me the longest time, but I have his picture. I admit, it's not the best, but at least it's something.
I've been catching glimpses of him a lot lately and every time I turn all giddy and girly. I know nothing about this person except his name, grade and that he's friends with this acquaintance of mine. But I like him anyway?!
At least I haven't reduced to stalking... not really anyway. Is it such a crime to want to steal glances of my current subject of interest? Is it?!
Ok, enough ranting. Here is the moment of truth:
My Tom
Can you see the eyebrow thing? Eh, maybe not... Darn picture.

Some guys are fun to stalk. Others are not... And it's always terrible when they find out you're stalking them. Or when you go with your friends on their stalking ventures and the guy ends up thinking you're the one stalking him.
I found a teacher who reminds me of Quirrel. It's like he's scared of us students. And my IB coordinator is a lot like Dumbledore. He likes to listen to all of us, he's really involved. Sometimes he goes around showing us stuff, though that's not really Dumbledore. Of course, he's much younger. And looks somewhat like Adam Sandler.
