1. Name: Nicole
2. Age: 17
3. If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you choose? I would love to have homes all over the world so that I could travel yet still feel at home. I want to be a citizen of the world. The old world is simply amazing. I think I could spend a lifetime there and still be able to marvel at the culture, history, and natural beauty of it. I would still need to be able to come home though.
4. What would your Room of Requirement look like? A library like the one in Beauty and the Beast with comfortable chairs indoors and a rose garden for outdoor reading. It would also have a computer because the internet is an amazing tool. There would be many photographs on the wall. It would be my sanctuary way from the world to be by myself or whoever I want whenever I want.
5. Who is your least favorite Harry Potter character? Viktor Krum the egotistical, sexist, stubborn, pigheaded wonder.
6. Is the glass half empty or half full? It's half full. There is so much good in the world. People who don't see are looking for the bad. People see what they want to.
7. Give us a quotation (Can be from a famous person, a song, or even a poem-whatever you want) you feel represents your life or personality. There are really two. The first is "I wanna be perfect/but I'm me." Perfectly by Huckapoo. The other is from Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls "And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming/ Or the moment of truth in your lies/ When everything feels like the movies/ Yeah you bleed just to know you're alive/ And I don't want the world to see me/ 'Cause I don't think that they'd understand/ When everything's made to be broken/ I just want you to know who I am."
8. In your life, who comes first: family or friends? Family is the most important. Friends come and go but you're stuck with your family for better or worse. They love you unconditionally and will always be there for you. A person's closest friends usually become a second family.
9. What is your favorite childhood memory? During a cruise, I went to the daycare on formal night. There was this little girl who was convinced that I was Snow White. I was so flattered and overjoyed to have a friend and be thought of as a princess. The fact that it made the little girl happy was an added bonus.
10. What would you say is your biggest flaw? My biggest flaw would probably be my self confidence. I usually doubt my abilities before I even try. It makes me regret not taking more chances.
11. If you had been at Hogwarts during Harry’s fifth year, do you think that you would have joined the D.A.? I would join. It is best to prepare for the worst and hope for the best. I would want to be able to protect myself and those I care for.
12. Describe how you react to difficult or stressful situations. I try to think clearly while calming everyone down. I usually am able to come up with a simple plan that solves the situation. The key is to remain calm.
13. Which do you value more: compassion or justice? Compassion is one of the greatest values. To be cliche, not everything is black and white. Good people must sometimes be bad under certain circumstances. Situational issues must be addressed.
14. Would you say that you’re a child at heart, or that you have an old soul? I'm definitely an old soul. I love traditions and act way too old for my age. It's not my fault though... my friends always make me the voice of reason in their half baked schemes. Although... I do love fairytales and Disney which might make me a bit childish.
15. Which Hogwarts House do you think that the Sorting Hat would place you in? I'm not sure... I would trust the hat to place me where it thinks I will do the best. Maybe Gryffindor or Ravenclaw, though.
16. Do you care which gender you are stamped as (If yes, tell us which gender you would like to be stamped as)? I don't care men and women are equals.
17. Anything else? No, I think I've revealed enough. A girl needs to be able to remain a little mysterious.
18. If you have a picture of yourself and feel comfortable posting it, please do so! Pictures are fun!
