Survey
1. Name:
Chad
2. Age (no one under 13, please):
Eighteen because I'm cool like that.
3. Location:
I live in a middle-of-nowhere town in Northeastern Pennsylvania, kind of near Allentown. I go to school in Wilkes-Barre. It's a fun place sometimes and it's definitely the only “city” with a hyphen in its name. Oh, yeah. Take that.
4a. Three positive adjectives to describe yourself:
Brave, spontaneous, and comical (I just wanted to sounds cooler than funny)
4b. Three negative adjectives to describe yourself:
Reckless (occasionally :-p), opinionated, and unpredictable (in that “not always so good” kinda way)
5. If you could live anywhere in the world for one year, where would you go, and why?:
Oh wow. I wanna live everywhere in the entire world for a year a piece, but for this one, I’m gonna go with New York City. I love the city with its energy and the fact you can stay up till all hours of the night and actually have something to do (I try doing that at home and fail miserably, well, I stay up, but have no where to go). You can also do basically anything you want there. To be put bluntly, New York is me in city form - spontaneous, energetic, and always ready to do something.
6. Explain the significance/meaning/origin of your username:
Umm, to be completely honest I just picked it cause I needed one and it sounded cool. I also though “Sectumsempra: for enemies” would be a cool title, even though it really didn’t make sense for the title of my journal, so I took it down in about 2.5 seconds. I’d like to give you some deep powerful story about how it reminds that everybody has a breaking point (since Harry used it in desperation), but it just isn’t true. I kinda wish it was, cause that would make it 5 billion times better. Maybe I’ll go with that explanation from now on.
7. What's your favourite holiday, and why?:
Halloween, no doubt, and no, not for the candy. I love the freedom to be whoever, or whatever I want. I mean I like me, but I get really bored of it every now and then, just like I get bored of lots of things. It’s also cool because you know it isn’t a permanent change, I just go back to being me the next day.
8. Favourite three books (besides Harry Potter):
Bitten by Kelley Armstrong
Obsidian Butterfly by Laurell K. Hamilton
Prozac Nation by Elizabeth Wurtzel
9. What is or was your favourite and or best subject in school?
Any class that actually allows me to express myself for who I am, so things like Writing classes and Acting classes. I know it isn’t really the answer you’re looking for, but I don’t really have a favorite.
10. If you could ask JKR one question, what would it be?
Probably something completely random like “What’s your favorite flavour of jelly?” because I’m sure the poor woman is absolutely sick of answering questions about Harry Potter.
11. Which of the Harry Potter books thus far was your favourite, and why?:
Well, Half-Blood Prince is probably my new favorite (my old being Order of the Phoenix). I loved the book, especially its twists and turns and the way you really didn’t know what was going to happen next in the plot. It was the perfect follow up to Order of the Phoenix, showing Harry mature. It also stripped away his last bit of security, setting up the final book with him as basically alone. Sure he has his friends, but that’s nothing like the people he’s lost. They’ll stick with him to the end, but they can’t even begin to compare with the one’s he’s lost in terms of advice and training (I was trying to keep that as spoiler-free as possible, even though I’m sure you’ve all read all the books).
12. If you could have the power to perform one spell, and only one spell, absolutely flawlessly for the rest of your life, what would it be and why?
Probably Accio because I’d definitely put it to good use. You never know when you’re gonna need something, and I can be pretty forgetful sometimes. Plus, I lose stuff so hopefully I could tweak it to bring the item even if I wasn’t exactly sure where it was. Even if I couldn’t, I’d still probably put it to more use than any others.
13. What House do you honestly think you’d end up in, and why?:
Gryffindor, because I’m just very much like that house. I’m brave, not just on one level but many. I’m brave enough to take risks. I’m brave enough to be myself all the time. I’m brave enough to accept the views of others and to stand up for my own. I’m also spontaneous, which I see as a quality of Gryffs and I’m quick-tempered, another trait I see them as having. I’m also always up for a challenge and ready for anything. I don’t know, I just think my whole vibe is very Gryffindor.
14. Are you willing to accept cross-gendered votes/stamps?:
I’d prefer to stay a penis.
15. Anything else we should know?:
Umm, I took like two answers from my application to lumos_sorting because they more or less asked the same thing, or the answer I gave for a different question fit the question asked.
16. Please post at least three clear pictures of yourself:
