This is obviously of Harry and Ginny. Major thanks to mudblood428 who is the wonderful artist who drew this, and also another on to Sunlitdays who shaped the picture into an Icon/Avatar friendly version. I'll add a link to her site soon.

It's the new year so I figured I had better redo my profile entirely. I kept some things but a lot was taken out and a lot was added in. THANKS so much for actually reading this!!

This is totally my inspiration for Severus Snape: "Sometimes, people just build walls up not to keep others out, but to see who cares enough to break through."

Me: I am a teenage girl who loves to laugh. Writing is my passion, and reading gave me wings. I have a deep love of animals and nature in general. My best inspiration comes to me in the rain. Most say I'm weird or crazy, but I couldn't care less. I love music, my family, and I love my church (LDS). Welcome to my world.

Reading: I am an avid reader. My parents get mad at me somedays for not doing anything else. I love most fantasy books, but my very most favorite, is
The Savage Damsel and the Dwarf by Gerald Morris. Just like every other girl I like the Twilight Saga. My other favorites consist of Fablehaven, Ella Enchanted, Goblin Wood, Heir Apparent, Prophecy of the Stones,Dragon Slippers, and of course, Harry Potter.

Fanfic Writing: I'm currently working on another HG/SS story called Heart and Soul. It's cute and hopefully funny! I have two more chapters left before I finish it.
I most recently finished writing a story called The Beauty and the Beast Effect or BBE. It is a SS/HG pairing, were Snape is a cat, that Crookshanks
finds, and Hermione takes care of. (A little twist in the story makes the age difference a little lighter.)

I wrote a cute little oneshot that is a companion peice to BBE. Hermione and Severus decide on a name for their baby. I wrote two others as well that go along with BBE. One is about a typical day in the Snape family, and the other is about a gift Sev gets Hermione.

I've written yet another oneshot about Hermione and Severus. It's Severus's birthday, and Hermione has a special present.

My latest is a oneshot that features Remus Lupin and a girl named Emma.

My next major project is A Second Chance. This once again has Severus, but instead of Hermione, I have my own character, Isabelle. Isabelle has been gravely injured by death eaters, and Severus takes
her home to Hogwarts. Isabelle stays at Hogwarts as she gains strength, and at the same time she's healing physically, she begans to help Severus heal emotionally.

About the same time I'm working on A Second Chance, I'll be writing the sequel to BBE, Of Magic and Mermaids. It's about Seva nd Hermione's oldest son, Rus and his adventures/misadventures of his seventh year.

Movies: My favorite movies are Stardust, August Rush, Pride and Prejudice, and Penelope. I also really like any musicals. My favorite musicals would have to be Oklahoma and The Sound of Music. Both of which I've seen a dozen times or so. (My mom's family is really musical, and so is mine, so I've been raised around music.) Overall, though, my very favorite movie is The Phantom of the Opera!! Oh by the way, I completley love Wicked!! I saw it a few years ago, and I can't
wait until I can see it again!! I also saw The Phantom of the Opera and the Lion King in Las Vegas over the summer. Both were absolutley amazing!! I think Phantom wins out though. The special effects were AWESOME!!

Favorite Pairings:
SS/HG; I absolutley love those those two together. If you don't agree with me, read Time's Treasure by debjunk, as well as one called Freaky Friday by her.
The other SS/HG pairing I loved was Kitten, by Seom. Another one that was great was The Life Unlived by sshg316.
HP/GW; I'm with Rowling all the way on these two.
NL/LL; I've never actually read one of these, but the idea is funny.
AD/MM; They are so perfect for one another. A really good Albus and Minerva story is called Dust and Hums that was written by sylvadragon.
RoseW/SM I love reading this two!! They are proabably my favorite pairing after SS/HG. I don't know though, Albus and Minerva are really good too!
RonW/HG I only like these two together when I'm not in the mood for SS/HG
LE/JP I always have wondered why Lily and James ended up together, and I like reading others opinion.

Girl: Slow down, I'm scared.

Guy: Can you take my helmet off & put it on yourself, it's really bothering me.

The next day in the newspaper, a motorcycle crashed into a building due to brake failure. Two people were in the crash, but only one survived. The truth was that halfway down the road the guy realized that his brakes weren't working, but he didn't want his girlfriend to know. Instead, he had her hug him and tell him she loves him one last time. Then he had her put on his helmet so that she would live, even though that meant he would die. If you would do the same thing for the person you love, copy and paste this into your profile.
