Something I realised the other day.

( We were the first, we will always be the first )

University news:

UCAS (application site) status has changed. My future may be on the tracking page, and I'm bricking it. I haven't been this scared since I saw my dentist holding a great big needle and heading for my gums.

Eeek.

This is going to be a bit longe than my usual posts.


( Peek-a-boo, I read you )

Am I the only person who's totally sick of hearing people slag off actresses. I've lost count of the number of comments and posts I've read about Bonnie Wright being 'boring' or 'plain.' Yeah, I think you call that normal, just like the casting people were looking for. Personally, I think she's pretty and looks better than most people. She looks like a real person, not some fake idiot.
Emma Watson also seems to take some heat, I've read posts calling her 'fake' and even one claiming she had a 'superior smirk.' So what fi she does? She's worth millions, is still going to uni, and is going to do great.

Lay off of these people. They make money, they go to uni and college. They're brilliant examples of doing well and staying grounded.

Werewolves all the way. You only have to worry about them trying to kill you one day a month, while if a vampire gets too hungry you should run. Plus, if it's a Potterverse werewolf, wolfsbane lets them keep their minds, so they won't rip you to bits. And they're cooler than vampires.

I saw the movie tonight.

Awesome. It was so good,but really depressing at the end.

One word of advice, Jessie Cave, who plays Lavender, will make you want to scrape your brain out with a spoon. She's a decent actress, but the character is insufferable.


Rupert Grint really shines, as does Emma Watson, but Radcliffe pales in comparison to their roles. Bonnie Wright is also brilliant.


Although there is only one scene including them, Natalia Tena and David Thewlis who play Nymphadora Tonks and Remus Lupin, have a touching scene between their characters. Watch out for Greyback, he'll make your skin crawl.

I am the prostitute working the streets because nobody will hire a transsexual woman.
I am the sister who holds her gay brother tight through the painful, tear-filled nights.
We are the parents who buried our daughter long before her time.
I am the man who died alone in the hospital because they would not let my partner of twenty-seven years into the room.
I am the foster child who wakes up with nightmares of being taken away from the two fathers who are the only loving family I have ever had. I wish they could adopt me.
I am one of the lucky ones, I guess. I survived the attack that left me in a coma for three weeks, and in another year I will probably be able to walk again.
I am not one of the lucky ones. I killed myself just weeks before graduating high school. It was simply too much to bear.
We are the couple who had the realtor hang up on us when she found out we wanted to rent a one-bedroom for two men.
I am the person who never knows which bathroom I should use if I want to avoid getting the management called on me.
I am the mother who is not allowed to even visit the children I bore, nursed, and raised. The court says I am an unfit mother because I now live with another woman.
I am the domestic-violence survivor who found the support system grow suddenly cold and distant when they found out my abusive partner is also a woman.
I am the domestic-violence survivor who has no support system to turn to because I am male.
I am the father who has never hugged his son because I grew up afraid to show affection to other men.
I am the home-economics teacher who always wanted to teach gym until someone told me that only lesbians do that.
I am the man who died when the paramedics stopped treating me as soon as they realized I was transsexual.
I am the person who feels guilty because I think I could be a much better person if I didn’t have to always deal with society hating me.
I am the man who stopped attending church, not because I don't believe, but because they closed their doors to my kind.
I am the person who has to hide what this world needs most, love.

"Ooh, really smart. Now why don't you go and crawl back into the water and wait to evolve?"
