Pottermore: HOGWARTS, HOGWARTS, I think I'm going back---

Pottermore, after torturing us endlessly, has finally announced it... we'll be going back to Hogwarts, where everyone thinks we're cool, on September 1st. Well, I guess there go my plans for that day. Chapters 5-11 of Chamber of Secrets will be open... wide open.

Fanfiction to Read: Reading Drarry Out Loud.

Disclaimer: I have no idea where this came from but... mpregs ahoy!

So, we all know of Draco/Harry. Some of us love it, some of us hate it. However, I've decided to take it one step further. Recently, a really awful fanfiction floated up (much in the same way that awful shit always does) and it was so horrendously bad and cringeworthy, I decided to v-log my way through reading said fanfiction. Be warned: this fanfiction contains mermaids, Mermaid!Harry, OOC Draco and Harry and everyone, mermaid sex, and mpregs. If you're feeling strong enough to handle this, well... vid's after the cut.

Over My Head: Roleplaying, EDs, and Attachment

Recently, I have joined an RP group, a Harry Potter roleplay, set in the next-gen universe. We all use OCs, and had to make up our own characters. I made up mine on the spot, tossing together bits and pieces to create a complete person, perhaps akin to someone I know... many someones. His name is Christian Peverell; he has long red hair and green eyes. He's tall, about six foot two. He dreams of being a singer in a rock band. Muggleborn, of course. Confused about his sexuality. And, most importantly, Christian is anorexic.

[Reblog] Realm Beyond Sight: Hogwarts inspired couture dresses!

Just a small update, ladies and gentlemen. I came across this LOVELY blog post with some couture dresses based on the four Hogwarts houses, designed by DeviantArt's DistantDream. Rather than writing a whole new thing on it, I thought I'd just link you to it!

Have to say, my absolute favorite out of all of these dresses is the Ravenclawesome one. It's totally my style!! (Even though I am a Slytherin...)

Twilight and Toxic Relationships

 Since I have nothing much to write about today, I thought I'd share one of my academic essays. This is an example of my work while writing essays and research papers. If you are interested in hiring me to do a research paper or essay, use the contact form provided in the Contact Me tab.

Relationships can be very difficult and stressful. Romantic relationships especially demand attention, time, care, and responsibility. Living as we do in a society that prizes a successful and loving relationship above most things, it can be very hard at times to live up to the standard. The desire to succeed at love has fueled a whole industry of self-help books that are geared towards people who want to be in a steady and loving relationship. Some books, such as The Rules tell women that they must make an extra effort to attract a man and keep him interested. Meanwhile magazines such as Cosmopolitan give hundreds of inane tips in each issue on how to keep a relationship from going stale, from “He Shares the Details of His Day, Therefore He Must Be Hiding Something” to “If He's Happy, He's Cheating” (Dennis and Smith 2011). With all these challenges and pitfalls and bad advice, it is unsurprising that modern relationships are a great source of stress for all involved. The best way to understand modern relationships is to examine the relationship portrayed in this generation’s most popular romance novel, and study how the characters display an unhealthy dynamic in their relationship. 

International Quidditch Association... wait, what?

International Quidditch Association... yup, folks, you've read that right! There is actually an international association dedicated to playing Quidditch. Please excuse me while I am mindfucked. 

Tom Felton, Anne Rice, and why NYCC 2012 is Going to be Awesome

Okay, this pretty much says it all. Tom Felton will be at New York Comic Con, and he will be ready to Crucio everyone. Or, well, that's what the fansites say, anyway. Once you add in the fact that Anne Rice herself will be making an appearance... well, I have two killer reasons to go to New York Comic Con this October, come hell or high water... or giant army of Death Eaters. 

Fanfiction to Read: Remus Lupin, PI by Larry Huss

Have you joined the Pottermore Sorority and read all about my experience at a Harry Potter meetup? Still find yourself bored? Time for Weekly Fanfiction Roundup! Today, I thought I'd write about an epic mystery fanfiction that has become a clear favorite of mine.

Sorority of Pottermore and Fraternity of Pottermore?

Have you ever wanted to join a sorority or fraternity? Are you a huge fan of Harry Potter, and a big Pottermore player? Well, these two Facebook groups might be just for you! Of course, it might seem a little strange at first - sororities? At Hogwarts? Actually, it's much more awesome than you think it could possibly be.

Meetups, Victories, Waiting, and Slytherin

Well, for the past week or so I've been neglecting this blog. Frankly, it shouldn't be surprising, as there's not much Pottermore related stuff to blog about. In any case, I thought it would be good to write up a little recap of all the things I did this past week when I wasn't working on projects that cannot be named. Amongst these things is a boatload of headcanons I wrote for the fanpage I admin (which I won't be sharing since Ms Rowling owns the copyright to those), going to a Harry Potter meetup and learning some fascinating stuff, and finally achieving an important goal from about 7-8 years ago.
