I'M STILL BACK! sort of

I have finished school (I'm bricking it for college in September NO LONGER) and I've been lurking again, and just now I decided I really, really wanted to read my old reviews. And stories, though some of them are cripplingly bad! But all my reviews were lovely, so I've decided not to delete Dramione? No, We'll Be Heraco like I was going to. I didn't want to lose all my reviews because they said I was funny, and I've never been funny before! So right now, as in pretty much five minutes ago, I've decided I might try and rewrite DNWBH, probably, and make it less cringe-worthy and make more sense!

So...I'm Hannah, I'm sixteen (!) and I pluck the part of my eyebrows that you're not supposed to...take that as you will. I like reading about other people (I'm guessing that makes me a bit of a freaky stalker) so I'm putting some stuff about me up too...

My favourite books are: Harry Potter (I will never get over my almost life-long crush on Draco Malfoy), the Twilight Saga, Black Maria by Diana Wynne Jones, The Suicide Club by Rhys Thomas, Trudi Canavan's books, Sophie McKenzie's, erm, The Gentlemen Bastard Sequence by Scott Lynch, the Night World books by LJ Smith, The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss, Sporeville by Paul Marlowe, the Pellinor series by Alison Croggon, the House of Night books by PC and Kristin Cast and a ton more in my bedroom that I can't actually remember.

My favourite music...how long have you got? is pretty much: HANSON! the Jonas Brothers, Patrick Wolf (who is INCREDIBLE) Simple Plan, Three Doors Down, Hinder, Placebo, Switchfoot, Hall & Oates (we listen in the car...good times) Nickelback, The Calling, Creed, HIM, Anberlin, Amber Pacific, Cute Is What We Aim For, Alkaline Trio, Sugarcult, Ivoryline, All American Rejects, some Shinedown, anything eighties, some Theory of a Deadman (Hate My Life), erm...David Jordan, the Punk Goes... compilation albums, Beautiful Ones by Suede (this is where I start to list a long list of songs I like so if that bores you skip down or something! I like people to know what I listen to because I am sad) some (for my sins) Miley Cyrus, dare I admit it, Tears In Heaven, anything acapella, anything acoustic, White Lines & Red Lights by Between The Trees, You Are The One by Shiny Toy Guns, Pages by There For Tomorrow, Supernova by Mr Hudson ft Kanye West, Hallelujah (the Rufus Wainwright one) Little Red Corvette by Prince (on the principle that my brother hates me singing it) and a whole ton of other stuff I can't be bothered remembering at the moment. More music than is probably healthy, which it isn't seeing as though I can't even remember it all.

TV, films...don't watch much TV anymore and if I do it's all BBC3 stuff: We Are Klang just started that's pretty funny, Live at the Apollo (Russell Howard is genius) Mock the Week, Hotel Babylon, Family Guy, Being Human, Personal Affairs, Mumbai Calling, Gavin & Stacey, Top Gear, erm, more that I can't remember...kids programmes like the Sarah Jane Adventures, Young Dracula, MI High is a particular favourite of mine!
Films-wise: Billy Elliot, the Harry Potter films, the Twilight films which are so dumb you cannot help but love, Run Fatboy Run, Angus Thongs and Perfect Snogging, Blood and Chocolate, erm, Golden Compass, Castaway (I cry like a baby when Wilson floats away) Inkheart, and a ton more I can't remember. I'm not very good at this.

As for games...I found HP and the Philosophers Stone on GAMEBOY COLOUR the other day and that was a major blast from the past. I loved that game. These days it's DS stuff, Harry Potter, and my brother lets me play Oblivion on his PS3 just to laugh at me and make me walk into traps that scare the life out of me. Sims, and I had a go on Little Big Planet (which is for like seven year olds and I was USELESS!) and I like the old PS2 games like Pitfall Harry.

My OTP is DRAMIONE! in case you hadn't already guessed, but I'm not averse to a bit of Blaise in there too...I'm a sucker for fics that turn everything upside down and put Blaise and Hermione together and Draco and Hermione together or all three of them, whatever. I'm a sucker for Slytherins, I guess. I'm rubbish at reading Harry/Ginny so I stay away from that. Okay, basically I only read Dramione, I guess, ha ha.

I like (to): blog (which has been neglected shame on me) play Solitaire, swear, stay up late, not go to bed at all, mirrors, take stupid pictures, get out of ICT to take stupid pictures (when I was still there) watch the A Very Potter Musical on youtube, watch films, read loads, write (I've been trying to write loads and I've been getting somewhere!) annoy people, be sarcastic, make awful comments, I love lipbalm of any sort I'm totally addicted, paint my nails and grow them long and evil, read things I shouldn't at my age, eat chocolate, self-deprecating humour, eat McCoy's salt and vinegar crisps until they burn my tongue, listen to music LOUD, go on long drives, clothes, shoes, argue, Max Factor False Lash Effect mascara, Boujour Paris nail varnish, my school hoodie with all our names on which is way too big, cherry tic tacs, my prom dress, red, purple, black, orange, colour, jewellery, socks, keyrings, and a whole ton of assorted junk.

I don't like (to): do anything if I'm really honest! talking to people (can't, really) going out of my way, stupid people, birthdays, people that freak if you say a naughty word, being nice, putting up with relatives, not laughing like a loon, food (picky eater) people from my stupid town, people not from my stupid town, Big Brother, stupid things, pointless things, physics, chemistry, maths, school, a lot of things, really. Oh, SLUGS! I loathe them with everything I have.

I have an A star in GCSE English Language that I am insanely proud of (because I slacked all the way through the work and stuff), just got a new car that will be MINE when I can drive, I have a younger brother and three older half-sibs, an evil rabbit named after Bilbo Baggins. I'm awful at wearing shoes and we have the WORST luck EVER. And I'm stupidly vain. Not because I'm super attractive, but because I just like mirrors. I'm an absolute reflection whore because I don't look like I used to I look way different and I don't understand it. You're So Vain by Carly Simon is my favourite song right now...because I'm vain and I like looking at my own reflection. I'm also a massive idiot and I have rubbish common sense and a brilliant Look that I give people when they're stupid.

I have three A stars now that I am very proud of, and even got in the paper on results day where I gave the most brilliantly lame quote EVER. I'm at sixth form now and loving it, studying both English as well as Law and Psychology and General Studies but that doesn't count because it's rubbish, and panic every morning over what to wear and I enjoy walking there and back unless it's raining. I have to carry a big fat folder around because it won't fit in my bag and I'm not getting a new one, and my favourite part of the whole day is the breaks. Also, I do salsa at 4 on a Monday and it is BRILLIANT. Do it.

So yeah, now that you've all totally turned off and I've made myself sound like the most miserable, unsociable awful person ever, I think I'm going to try and revive fanficcing. I mean, I want to try and rewrite it and make it better but still include the original things, just put more sense into it and more writing because I think (hope) I've gotten better recently. I would LOVE to write a huge mega fic but I have no patience and I'm rubbish at things like plot twists. Maybe one day. At the moment I'm just writing all my own stuff and loads of useless stuff that will never go anywhere. I know perfectly well what I want from my writing I just can't get it. I'm leaving all my old stupid stuff up if you want to have a good laugh over it, I know I did.

So...just drop me a line or something, I'm lonely! Or laugh at all my old fics. I think right now (and it's like twenty to one in the morning) I am going to go and try do something about that stupid fic I wrote years ago called Dramione? No, We'll Be Heraco. I'm probably nicer than I sound and I'd love to talk!

Or play solitaire, whatever!

Just realised how weird I actually do sound...
