• What sort of profession in the wizarding world would you choose and why?
  I would be an auror, it brings somewhat of an exciting lifestyle and also it deals with the profession i wish to teach at hogwarts. I always liked a more hands-on approach to remedying a situation with evil. It also is a respectable job that is admired by many, and I believe that I can excel at it.
  
  
• If you could teach one class at Hogwarts, what would it be and why?
  If I was to teach a class at hogwarts it would be the defense against the dark arts, I would love to share my knowledge of counterattacks against an opponent's offense. I spent a great deal of time in strategy and fighting games devising tactics against my peers offense and defense. I believe I have natural aptitude for this kind of subject. It is also pretty much guaranteed that there will be a position for this job knowing that hogwarts cycles through the teachers for this subject quite quickly.
  
  
• This year, The TriWizard Tournament is being held once again and you're of age. Do you put your name in the Goblet? Why or why not?
  Yes I would, there isnt too much to lose for me. I love taking risks when involved in things such as tournaments, and it will prove to me if I am a worthy person to even compete.
  
  
• If you could choose your animagus form, what would it be and why?
  I would be a Yorkshire Terrier. They are absolutely adorable dogs that can show the love and loyalty of a canine, but also the shrewd nature of a feline. Their small stature helps them get away from any mischief by sneaking away or playing the helpless victim. They fear no opponent bigger than they are, that is, until they are charged, then they will scamper quick as their legs can take them. They are also known in British royalty as a princess' choice of breed. They are great puzzle solvers as well seeming that my yorkshire terrier found ways to prop up items to find a way out the window for a much needed bathroom break.

• What HP character do you identify with most and why?
  I would associate myself most with Arthur Weasley. Though I am not envious of the unstable situation of his life, I believe that Arthur handles things the best way possible given his position. He also is a caring father and husband and also is a bit on the fun and eccentric side, with his fascination with muggle lifestyle and "Artifacts." Alot of terrible things happen to Arthur but he seems to handle it with a strong composition that I can really admire.
  
  
• What would you see if you looked into the Mirror of Erised?
  If I looked into the mirror I would see myself in a happy, stable and comfortable family life. Nothing would please me greater than to be financially secure and also be a wonderful husband and father.
  
  
• If you won a million dollars, how would you spend it?
  If I had a million dollars I would settle the financial loose ends of my life and then situate myself in stable location with my family. I will also calculate it so I have money left to invest, most likely in land because land never depreciates in value. I will not indulge, seeming that I do not have any grandeur form of material desires. I guess a downfall to this operation is that I will have the want to pamper my wife.
  
  
• What was your ideal job as a kid? Has that changed? What is your ideal job now?
  My ideal job as a kid was to become a college professor, and that has changed drastically. I originally intended to become someone my mother alway's wanted to be, but I decided it is best to build on my natural talents. So now I want to become a game artist, mixing my talent for art, and passion for video games.
  
  
• If you were able to invent one spell, potion, or charm, what would it do, what would you use it for or how would you use it, and what would you call it?
  I would create a spell that will stay as an invisible shield to my body that can reflect an offensive spell, it is absolutely crucial in fighting against the dark arts, to give me some kind of defensive capability against spells i do not see coming. It can be used to shield against being ambushed or can be used to buy some time to cast a spell. Magnus Reflectus seems appropriate because its a greater reflect.
  
  
• If you were to face a boggart, what would it turn into? And what does it turn into when you throw the counter-spell, Riddikulus?
  If i was to face a boggart it would find it difficult turning into my greatest fears because it cannot be manifested in physical form, however it could probably try to intimidate me by turning into an unpleasant woman (maybe an exgirlfriend.) When I throw the spell riddikulus on her, it would probably turn her into a man, that would be pretty entertaining.
  
  
• What do you look for in a friend?
  Compassion, trust, and entertaining to be with. Someone who I can really get to become close to without any fear of losing them to petty matters.
  
  
• What trait most annoys you about other people?
  The trait that annoys me most about other people is the great lengths they will go to cause more problems over trivial problems. It is not too difficult to be easy going and could do the world some good, but instead they choose to cause more drama and havoc.
  
  
• What do you think are your top five abilities or qualities?
  Compassionate- I am sympathetic to many people. I try to see the more noble side of people and try to help them when they are in need.
  Ambition- I have great hopes and dreams, I will always try to do the best I can at achieving them, but they are mostly there for motivation rather than goals.
  Easy Going- There is very few things that will ever get me worked up, which im glad for, because I think given the situations, I would otherwise be pretty stressed out.
  Strong Morals- Surrounded by infidelity, I would say I have strong moral judgement and willpower to do good.
  Intelligence- I wont boast an incredible amount of intelligence but Im quite adept at analyzing and studying. I can also point out the shortcomings of myself, and how to improve upon them which i believe requires intelligence.
  
  
• What do you think are your top five weaknesses or worst qualities?
  Jealousy- Though I can say that I am not jealous in any way in regards to a romantic relationship, I am jealous of people who are more successful than I am.
  Charisma- I hate to admit it, but I do not believe I am the most persuasive of speakers or carry a charming allure to my being.
  Apathy- I think sometimes i tend to close myself off completely emotionally from the things that are or resulting in my unhappiness. This can sometimes mean that i can be quite hard to reason with when i dont care anymore. I think this is one of my most natural and habitual defenses against getting hurt.
  Laziness- I cannot help it sometimes like any other man but to get lazy sometimes. There are times I do not wish to do anything and things do not get done. This bothers me greatly.
  Overachieving- Sometimes i take on a project that is too much for me to handle and i get overwhelmed by it, i should learn to gauge my capabilities more shrewdly.
  
  
• Define in your own words the following key traits:
