1. Name: Scotty.
2. Age: 16.


Remember to explain why/elaborate on the following questions.

3. Have you read all 6 Harry Potter Books? Which book was your favorite?

Of course! My mum owns a book shop so I read the first book long ago. I was reading it as a test for whether the store would have them or not and I fell in love with them. That was yonks ago and my obsession has only grown. I think GoF is by far the best book; it was filled with passion and adventure. It had a wonderful storyline that was exciting and grasped my attention. It was well-written to a specific audience, which the latest two lack. To me, the way that the latest two books have been written seems like she's struggling to choose which audience she's aiming the book at. Adults or children, and it's stuck somewhere in between.

4. Which house qualities do you value most?

This question could be taken from many angles, but i'll go with the house qualities I value most from only one house; Hufflepuff. I don't know how I can answer this question without being viewed as a 'pusher' but, I truly respect and understand Hufflepuff. The overly bubbly stuff is completely untrue. As a friend, I most value and admire their patience. I don't really have the patience of a Hufflepuff, but I value those that do, because it's a very admirable quality to have.

5. What are your pet peeves?

People chewing with their mouths open. It makes me want to scream. The chewing sound drives me insane, especially with my mother. I can't eat near my mum, her jaw clicks while she chews and it takes me to the edge. Everytime she chews, I feel one step close to snapping. Other than that, I don't like dishonest people or immature people. I don't like people who enjoy conflict, sadists don't only scare me, but they make me really uncomfortable. I just don't understand how you can treat people poorly and ENJOY it. It's just disgusting.

6. Based from your personality, what kind of Animagus would you be? (The animal chooses you, you don’t choose it.)

A tiger. I'm a bit like a cat; lazy, relaxed, preeetttyy. But I couldn't be just a cat, I get a lot angrier than just a little cat, I also have a lot more power and strength than a kitty. I guess I’d be a tiger because they're strong, reliable, graceful, quick, etc. They're also the mascot for my favourite Rugby League team! I also think I’d do well as a crow, basically opposite to a tiger but, something about crows comforts me. I know it's strange because most people fear them, but I just feel strangely attached to them.

7. What shape would your Boggart take? (Remember: Your Boggart takes the shape of the thing that you fear the most.)

Heights? I don't know. Those dementors are pretty scary. Oh, I saw this crazy Japanese movie and these Japanese school girls turned feral and were seducing Japanese men and then killing them. Those school girls were MIGHTY scary. Possibly that? It could also take shape of the weird homeless man that lives across the road in the council reserve. He throws bottles and other assorted rubbish things at me while I’m waiting for my school bus in the morning. He's really scary.

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 my friends. I have myself under control, so I don't need to fear for anything of myself. That would be selfish and pointless. I worry about a couple of my closest friends who are going through tough times. One of them is having a lot of trouble coping, especially. It's sad because she's the most amazing person I’ve ever met. She's the peak of elegance. She moves with grace and poise, she has the voice of an angel. It's horrible for her to feel so down all the time, I worry about her a lot. I worry that I won't be there for her when she hits rock bottom.

9. Would you put your name in the Goblet of Fire?

No. I don't have enough talents to feel confident enough with myself to put my name in the Goblet of Fire. I would only enter the competition if I was sure that I would have a GOOD chance of winning. I wouldn't even consider entering if I thought I had a slight opportunity to make an arse of myself in front of the whole school, and the visiting schools. I'd die of shame. I only enjoy glory for things I’m good at. The rest of the time, I’m happy to be sitting in the shadows, as a normal little boy who just goes about his life with ease. Triwizard Tournament is also a little tough and challenging, too much for my head to handle. Though, getting out of final year exams is very appealing. No, still wouldn't.

10. What do you believe is the greatest weapon you possess? How, why, and when would you use it?

I don't know. My brain? My music? I can't really answer this message. I guess I’m pretty strong and I’ve been in a couple of physical fights, but who doesn't from time to time? I never really get into fights about stupid things; I don't end up having a war of words, so I guess I can't truly answer this question. I guess I can bite back if you insult me, that's just acting on impulse though. Unfortunately, I’m not the confronting type, unless I’m passionate about the issue. I get passionate fairly easily though..

11. Would you ever want to be a prefect?

Yeah, sure. I like Prefect; it's a good amount of responsibility without having your life revolve around it. With the Prefect Badge comes authority and respect, everybody likes a little bit of authority and respect ever now and then, eh? It's also something snazzy to put on your resume for the future. Though, I wouldn't like being in control of a lot, I’m not that organised or confident in my abilities to feel comfortable. I'd enjoy being Prefect, but surely there's someone better fit to fill the position than yours truly.

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?

Um, this is basically the same as the House Quality question. I admire patience. I admire those that have patience; I admire those around me who are patient with me.

13. What are the worst qualities that you believe a person can possess? Why do you feel this way?

Self-centered. I hate people that think they are the greatest! Well, I don't hate them. But it annoys me when people regard themselves superior to others; I think it's one of the most disgusting things in the world. I don't think that anyone has the right to believe themselves higher or more important than somebody else and, if your mind unfortunately works that way, you shouldn't advertise it to the innocent victim that you consider bellow you. At least people should have the decency to be subtle or quiet about their self-centeredness. I also don't quite enjoy sadistical people (as I’ve mentioned previously).

14. If you were to look into the Mirror of Erised, what would you see?

Wouldn't have a clue. I don't really desire that much. I'd probably see myself onstage, performing in front of millions of people and doing a darn good job of it. The people would be enjoying my performance and their lives would be better because of the performance. Hopefully I touched some people in the audience and helped them find answers in their lives. I’d have a beautiful (inside) wife and couple of kids bringing home the dough and having a good time. Providing my family with a reliable money source!

15. How many people do you consider true friends? What qualities do they have that are important to you? Why are they your friends?

I have a lot of acquaintances, but not many closer friends. I have a couple of people I regard to be my truest friends, which I trust wholly and completely. They posses patience (for the third time), kindness, understanding, honesty, a sense of humor, etc. They posses everything a perfect friend could possibly posses. They're my friends because our relationship is solidly built upon a lot of trust and definitely a few personal jokes that bind us together strongly. They make me feel great about myself and, I hope I do the same with them!

16. What are your thoughts on Voldemort?

Nah, don't like him. He's inhumane. I've mentioned my dislike for Sadists previously, and the dislike still stands. But, you've got to see the light in the darkness! For without darkness, there is no light. That's the basis of my thoughts toward him. I don't like him, I don't support him, and I don't follow him. I believe what he does is wrong, but he makes the do-gooders do good.

17. What do you think are your main 3 characteristics?

Sense of humor. I take jokes lightly, which is good. I rarely get too serious, but I know when to stop. I try to put a smile on people's face, just so that they feel better. I also feel better if I make a jokes or something, it helps me deal with my problems.
Honesty. I'm pretty honest, sometimes to the point where I can unintentionally offend people. I still think it’s a quality I’m proud to have.
Friendly. I’m pretty welcoming. I enjoy meeting new people and I try and make them feel as comfortable as possible. I try and be as nice as I possibly can be, most of the time.

18. What house do you feel you belong in?

I consider myself a Hufflepuff; i'm loyal, kind, honest, etc. But I don't really think i'm all that hardworking. I have the laziness and passion of a Gryffindor, same with the boldness and self assured-ness. I think that the house that represents me most is Hufflepuff, but I have a large amount of Gryffindor in me. I get fired up and passionate about stupid things and i'm always standing up for what I believe in. I also don't have the patience of a Hufflepuff. I become attached to people easily but, I don't let people into my mind or heart easily. That could be a bit of my Slytherin coming through. I've been sorted into Ravenclaw before but, I don't think I fit it. I'm smart, I get good results and such, but my brain doesn't think with wit. My brain works like a two year old tripping on acid. You know? Non-stop, about stupid things. I don't ponder heavily about life, I prefer to wonder when i'm going to eat next. I go with time, which could be the Gryffindor in me. I tend to live and let live, which is Gryffindor. It takes a long time to build up trust from me, and it can be lost within a second, with one tiny mistake I could never trust you again. I pity you if you experience that from me, I become bitter, sour, patronising and sarcastic towards you. This could be the Slytherin in me. But I truly believe that i'm a Hufflepuff. Generally kind-hearted, honest to a certain point that I don’t know when to stop and, sympathetic. I try to listen to people, I try to understand them. Though I don't always succeed, i'll keep trying because I want to be everyone's friend. I guess that's why i'm a Hufflepuff.

19. "Blood or water" - Which is more important; friends or family?

Essentially, my family is more important. Though, each member of my family is of different importance, as are my friends. I don’t sit at home and rank my friends and family, I just know which one’s are closer to me and, therefore, more important to me. A few of my friends are more important than one of my sisters, because I just don’t see a heart inside her at all. She’s a stereotypical Slytherin. But the rest of my family is more important to me than my closest friends. I was just raised that way.

20. How did you find out about us? (House points are given to users who refer you here.)

Nobody, I’m so bored I just looked for somewhere to apply! :)
