POTTER COMEBACKS NEEDED

Last year my friend started the comeback book. basically its a book with different categories that help you come up with good comebacks.

Don't be a bully, be my friend

Oops, another long post! I Have reason to believe it’s Anti-Bullying week here in the UK. I used to think I was bullied at High School until a year ago when I came to Uni and joined the HPA. The reason I stopped thinking I was bullied? I learned the true meaning of friendship. I learned about making the choice of what is right, over what is easy.

When I was younger I lived in a well-to-do village with over-protective parents and went to a village primary school of only eighty kids. When I was e… Continue

My Epic Adventure of Life Change: Wrockstock III

I had been so nervous the night before I left; this was the adventure I had only dreamed going on since the first day. I knew my life was never going to be the same again. I had finally gotten my acceptance letter to Hogwarts. My adventure started very much how Harry's did in Deathly Hallows, everything seemed to be going fine until we had gotten to the LAX Airport went the swarm of Death Eaters attacked from all angles and directions. I felt just like Harry did when he watched his best friend a… Continue

The Wagon of Warmth

A few days ago, a group of children from my neighborhood were out collecting items for the homeless shelter. This group of children included myself and sister, along with dozens of other children. This organization is called the Wagon of Warmth.
This is how it works. A week before collection day, each of the families in the organization takes a street and we distribute flyers to each of the houses. We have a list of things that are needed on it. These things are everything from non-perishable fo… Continue

Phoenix Poetry Reading

I am on the editorial board of my school's literary and art magazine, the Phoenix. Of course, the name made me want to join from the start. A few times a year, we hold a themed poetry reading in the library. The first one of the year was today, and the theme was night. I wrote a poem inspired by the work of the Harry Potter Alliance. As I expected, a few people giggled when I explained the dedication of my poem, but not in a rude way, just because everyone knows how much I love Harry Potter. Thi… Continue

TWLOHA

Today was To Write Love on Her Arms Day. For those of you who don't know, the aim is to write the word "love" on your arm to raise awareness and show support for people struggling with depression, self harm, suicide, and addiction. This was my arm today. I think it will be familiar to all of you. My apologies for being a terrible artist.

Wouldn't It Be Neat If We Did A Holiday Season Gift Exchange???

Hey everybody.

For many of us, gift-giving season is fast approaching. :) I've always sort of wanted to do a Secret Santa type thing, and I thought it would be neat if we could do one here, amongst all our awesome selves. Everyone here has done a lot of good hard work this year, and we deserve to give each other presents... if we want to... :)

Maybe this is a totally weird idea, but I think it would be fun.

Thoughts?

.Marie.

what do you do when…

What do you do when your family is unsupportive and you need someone to talk to,
What do you do when your friends all have their own problems but you still need someone to talk to,
What do you do when your Dumbledore isn't around but you still need someone to talk to,
What do you do when Albus Dumbledore doesn't have the answer.

What would you do when this happened to you!?

No regrets, Cam

It is exactly six years today since a 17 year old from Auckland died of cancer. Many of you may have heard about Cameron Duncan from the Lord of the Rings: Return of the King Extended DVD. Cameron was a softball palyer and film maker who was hit with cancer in his knee in 2002. He made a short film, DFK 6498, about his experience. Later, he was told his cancer was terminal and he had two months to live. With this news, and taking inspiration from Gandalf (“It is not all who live to see such dark… Continue
