Name: Brittany

Age: 20

How long have you been into HP? What got you into it?: I think I was 14 when I got into it (grade 8). I remember it becoming really popular and I liked fantasy in general, so I ordered the first HP book from a bookorder and became obsessed from there. Before I even finished the first one I already bought the 2nd, 3rd and 4th from Walmart.
I think what really sucked me in was JK's writing style and how each character was fascinating in their own way.

What are some of your favorite HP characters?: Harry, Ron, Hermione, Sirius, Remus, Dumbledore, and Lily.

What are some of your favorite HP pairings?: Ron/Hermione, Harry/Ginny and James/Lily.

What characters/pairings do you talk about most often in your journal?: None really since HP isn't my primary fandom at the moment. Whenever I do talk HP, most likely it's to do with my favourite characters listed above, or anything canon.

What's your favorite of the seven books?: Prisoner of Azkaban.

What's your favorite of the movie adaptations?: Chamber of Secrets and Order of the Phoenix.

What's your least favorite book and movie?:

Do you do any fanworks (art, fic, icons, etc.)? If so, what?: I don't draw publicly or write, but I make icons. However, said icons are not HP-related :P

What non-HP fandoms are you into?: Naruto, Inuyasha, Ranma 1/2, Fruits Basket and other minor ones listed in my interests.

What do you post about outside of fandom?: Real life, memes, randomness, the normal :)

What are you looking for in an LJ-friend? (this can include anything from 'someone who'll comment' to 'someone to RP with' etc.) Just a nice person to get to know. Comment here and there, and I'll do the same.

What are some of your pet peeves/dislikes (real-life or fandom)?:
Real life: Idiot drivers, retarded celebrities, loud noises, stupid people, etc.
Fandom: Pointless drama 'nuff said. It's fun to lol at, but gets tired and stupid really quick.

Other favorites: Books, Movies, TV, Music?:
Books: Memoirs of a Geisha
Movies: Disney, Lord of the Rings, Moulin Rouge!
TV: The Simpsons, Futurama, Seinfeld.
Music: Anything except for rap/hip hop. I really like foreign music.

Anything else?: ♥

Name: Lindsay

Age: 18

How long have you been into HP? What got you into it?: Er, honestly I can't remember...I think I picked up the first book around 1998. At any rate, I started before Goblet of Fire came out. And I read them because I was bored, and my brother had a copy--but I kept reading and he didn't.

What are some of your favorite HP characters?: Ginny Weasley. The Malfoys. Bellatrix Lestrange. Luna, because she is amazing. Oh and Dumbledore. :D

What are some of your favorite HP pairings?: First it was Ron/Hermione, then Harry/Ginny. Now it's mostly Draco/Pansy, Pansy/Ron, Lucius/Narcissa, Neville/Luna and the occasional Draco/Harry. ;)

What characters/pairings do you talk about most often in your journal?: Er, actually, I don't really post about a certain character or pairing. I talk about the series in general and sometimes I make fic recs.

What's your favorite of the seven books?: Goblet of Fire. It has always been.

What's your favorite of the movie adaptations?: Chamber of Secrets. Order of the Phoenix was also rather spiffing.

What's your least favorite book and movie?: Book: Deathly Hallows. Movie: Goblet of Fire.

Do you do any fanworks (art, fic, icons, etc.)? If so, what?: I've written one fanfic, I make icons, and I try to draw. I am not an amazing artist.

What non-HP fandoms are you into?: Smallville, Dragonlance, The Tudors, and for awhile, Inuyasha, but that's kind of died due to the dragging on of the series.

What do you post about outside of fandom?: Pretty much anything. Life, funny stuff, arts and crafts, books and movies...actually, I think my journal is a little boring. Oh wells!

What are you looking for in an LJ-friend? (this can include anything from 'someone who'll comment' to 'someone to RP with' etc.) I'm not picky; I make friends with anyone and everyone. I would say I'd like an RP buddy, but I do all of my RP-ing on greatestjournal.

What are some of your pet peeves/dislikes (real-life or fandom)?: Real-life wise, as in on lj, I don't like people I don't know to friend me without saying anything. Outside of lj...I dunno...emo kids bother me. xD Fandom-wise, I don't really have any complaints yet.

Other favorites: Books, Movies, TV, Music?: The Wayfarer Redemption, Holly Black, historical fiction, the Stephenie Meyer books, Dragonlance, and lots of others (Books); action, horror, comedy, musicals, pretty much whatever (Movies); Smallville, Supernatural, Futurama, Family Guy (TV); and anything you can think of, but Nightwish, Divinity Destroyed, Blind Guardian, Within Temptation, Rihanna, Blackmore's Night, and Wizard Rock (Music) to name a few.

Sorry that was so incredibly unorganized.

Anything else?: I like to dye my hair. xD I dunno.

Name: Jules

Age: 17

How long have you been into HP? What got you into it?:
I've been reading the books since 2002. My father bought me CoS because he didn't know which one was the first book. Anyway, I didn't realize that I wasn't reading the first one but I still got onto the story quite well.

What are some of your favorite HP characters?:
I've always been a fan of Hermione. I think she's awsome. I also like Ron, Dumbledore and Harry alot.

What are some of your favorite HP pairings?:
Ron and Hermione, of course :P And I always liked Harry/Ginny, but not as much as R/Hr... I also got quite attached of Remus/Tonks.

What characters/pairings do you talk about most often in your journal?:
Hehe, I think it's Ron and Hermione.

What's your favorite of the seven books?:
Oh, that's hard to say. I really loved the last one, but my heart will ever stick to the second book, just because I read this one first.

What's your favorite of the movie adaptations?:
The films are getting better and better (with one execption). Right now I can't wait to get the DVD of the 5th.

What's your least favorite book and movie?:
I would say the 3rd book and movie. But I also don't like the first book very much. Maybe I was too bored by the story because I knew everything that happend in there (because it wasn't my first book)

Do you do any fanworks (art, fic, icons, etc.)? If so, what?:
Yes, I'm doing artwork, like icons, wallpapers, banners etc. I also did quite alot music videos, but I'm currently too deep in other fandoms. I'm still planning of making more HP vids.

What non-HP fandoms are you into?:
Doctor Who, Torchwood, Life on Mars, Heroes, Trainspotting, etc etc

What do you post about outside of fandom?:
I still go to school, so I'm not working anywhere. I did (until 2005) athletics.

What are you looking for in an LJ-friend? (this can include anything from 'someone who'll comment' to 'someone to RP with' etc.)
I'd like to have friends to whom I can talk to. If I and he/she are sharing good laughs together it would be even better :) I think similar interests are also important.

What are some of your pet peeves/dislikes (real-life or fandom)?:
I don't like people who are acting stupid (and by that I mean really really stupid) For instance: I'm making a Harry Potter video, creating my own storyline, where Hermione dates Neville (or something like that) and someone comes up and says: "Oh it's not true, she belongs to Ron! This can't ever ever happen." These people are driving me insane, because it's fanmade and it's not canon. They just don't seem to understand what fandom is. Anyway, I'm also not very fond of character bashing. A little bothering is alright.

Other favorites: Books, Movies, TV, Music?:
Ohh, too much to tell you xD I've listed them all on my profile, but here's an extract: my favorite movie is Moulin Rouge, I love reading thrillers like "Candlemoth" and satires like "a dirty job". I'm quite open for everything. When it comes to music, I love rock, pop, soul... nearly all genres but I can't stand hip hop our house/trance.

Anything else?:
I guess I'm babbling to much xD sorry :P

Name: Adel

Age: 19

How long have you been into HP? What got you into it?: About 6 years ago- Sorcerer's Stone was a summer reading book and after that I was hooked.

What are some of your favorite HP characters?: the trio, Ginny, Tonks, Sirius, Luna... all of em?

What are some of your favorite HP pairings?: RON/HERMIONE (shipper much?) Harry/Ginny, Lupin/Tonks, Luna/Dean

What characters/pairings do you talk about most often in your journal?: R/H, Ron in general.

What's your favorite of the seven books?: Life or death situation that I had to choose?? 5th or the 7th

What's your favorite of the movie adaptations?: The Burrow in CoS. One of my favorite scenes out of all the movies, best set/place adaptation so far.

What's your least favorite book and movie?: Least favorite?! Um, it's kind of hard going back and reading SS/PS or CoS because the films cover nearly everything in it. Don't have a least movie - wasn't the 5th one awesome though?

Do you do any fanworks (art, fic, icons, etc.)? If so, what?: fics mostly, and icons if I get Photoshop happy

What non-HP fandoms are you into?: Alias

What do you post about outside of fandom?: Randomness of my life

What are you looking for in an LJ-friend? (this can include anything from 'someone who'll comment' to 'someone to RP with' etc.) Not sure, someone who'll comment/speak back I guess. I've just come to notice that the HP community is made up of a lot of good, funny, extremely nice group of people and isn't always fun to meet some of those?

What are some of your pet peeves/dislikes (real-life or fandom)?: In life - unreliabilty, people who can't drive, mean people in general. Fandomwise - ummm, I'd have to think on it

Other favorites: Books, Movies, TV, Music?: Books - Dan Brown, James Patterson until he decided to suck, Daniel Kootz. Movies - um not one favorite, but usually things with Denzil Washington in it is worth watching. TV - Alias, Grey's, Armywives

Anything else?: without randomness life would be entirely too boring

Name: Kelly

Age: 23

How long have you been into HP? What got you into it?: I've been into HP for about eight years- a little less. I read the first three books in a row because I'd heard they were very good. The rest is of course, history.

What are some of your favorite HP characters?: I really adore almost all of the cast. HP has one of my favorite, if not my favorite, ensemble casts. My favorite character is Ron then Neville and Luna. After that, in no particular order some of my favorites are Hermione, Harry, Ginny, Remus, Fred & George, Lupin, and actually pretty much every single member of the Weasley family and a good majority of the adult cast/Order members.

What characters/pairings do you talk about most often in your journal?: RxHr and NxL as they're my two favorites. The other ones from time to time. As far as characters, Ron (and the Weasleys as a whole) and Neville I think the most.

What's your favorite of the seven books?: Deathly Hallows

What's your favorite of the movie adaptations?: Chamber of Secrets and Goblet of Fire.

What's your least favorite book and movie?: I love all the books and couldn't pick a least favorite, but my least favorite movie is Prisoner of Azkaban. All the movies I have things I'm 'meh' on.

Do you do any fanworks (art, fic, icons, etc.)? If so, what?: Fic (here and here) Icons (here). I like to do general tl;dr discussions/analysis and such as well. I don't do it myself, but I LOVE Wizard Rock! My favorite group is probably Ministry of Magic.

What non-HP fandoms are you into?: Manga- Rumiko Takahashi's entire body of work- from Urusei Yatsura to InuYasha and also Fullmetal Alchemist. Anime- Gundam Seed/Destiny. Lots of other series, but those are my biggest. TV- Heroes and Avatar the Last Airbender.

What do you post about outside of fandom?: School (English major), work, movies, general mundane things.

What are you looking for in an LJ-friend? Someone who will comment from time to time and that I can comment to. Someone easygoing but mature.

Other favorites: Books, Movies, TV, Music?: Books- Historical fiction, classics, children and young adult literature. Favorite books include Night by Elie Wiesel, His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman, The Man Who Laughs by Victor Hugo. TV- I don't watch very much. I love the stuff I grew up with, but right now I only watch Heroes and Avatar. Movies- Pixar movies (which I talk about quite a bit) and Disney films up to 2002. I love goofy comedies (Adam Sandler, Jim Carrey and the like) and movie musicals, but beyond that my taste just varies upon the movie. Music- I'm a big musical nerd. Of course, I listen to Wizard Rock. Outside that, classical, celtic, classical crossover, and alternative rock. My car radio dial is always on the local alternative station and it's what I listen to most frequently.

Anything else?: Hope to meet some new people!

What are some of your favorite HP characters?: Dumbledore, Voldemort, Harry, Neville, the Malfoys, Fenrir Greyback solely for the lulz...

What are some of your favorite HP pairings?: While I'm not much into pairings, I suppose Ron/Hermione, maybe? No, wait, NEVILLE/LUNA. OMFG. Should have been canon.

What characters/pairings do you talk about most often in your journal?: Voldemort. XDD

What's your favorite of the seven books?: PoA!

What's your favorite of the movie adaptations?: CoS. It's closest book-to-movie adaption, to me.

What's your least favorite book and movie?: For book, that would be GoF; I just really don't care for it much. For movie, that would PoA. Just...no.

Name: Elizabeth

Age: 16

How long have you been into HP? What got you into it?: For three or four years. I didn't think twice of the books at first, not even considering giving them a chance. Didn't like reading that much back then anyway. Then I got sick one day and borrowed it from a friend. Simple as that. Even though I've seen the first film before I read the book, I have become enchanted, and it hasn't left me ever since. Here I am completely obsessed still! :)

What are some of your favorite HP characters?: I love many of them. From the marauders and Lily to the Weasleys and Hermione. Luna is incredible, and so is McGonagall. And though I hated Snape the entire series, oh how I admire him now. But I guess I love the trio the most.

What are some of your favorite HP pairings?: Hermione/Ron, Sirius/meLily, james/Lily, Harry/Ginny etc.

What characters/pairings do you talk about most often in your journal?: I don't tend to talk about pairings much, since I never cared too much. For me the series has never been about romance, but about a friendship stronger and more beautiful than anything else in the series. I liked how Jo put forward the love between friends, parents and their child, and so on. But I guess I still had my hopes and tips, and I talked most of my hate for harry/hermione, heh.

What's your favorite of the seven books?: That's so hard to say. It changes constantly.

What's your favorite of the movie adaptations?: Sorcerer's Stone, I think. It was so magical.

What's your least favorite book and movie?: Chamber of Secrets the book and Prisoner of Azkaban the movie. While I loved some imagery by Cuaron, i just hated the way the film went and happened.

Do you do any fanworks (art, fic, icons, etc.)? If so, what?: I do a lot of fanfiction. Harry Potter not only taught me how to read, but also how to write. And it's so wonderful for me.

What non-HP fandoms are you into?:

What do you post about outside of fandom?: Life, observations, normal troubles. i use Lj to interact with people with different views, share ideas, but I try to stay myself as well. internet can be so fake at times, but thanks to LJ, I have found some wonderful and great friends. And I'll be happy to meet some new ones. :)

What are you looking for in an LJ-friend? (this can include anything from 'someone who'll comment' to 'someone to RP with' etc.) Yes, i like people that comment from time to time. It's nice to know that someone you have friended cares in a way. And I enjoy talks outside of LJ as well, not only in the internet, but to write letters and such. It can be so much fun, heh.

What are some of your pet peeves/dislikes (real-life or fandom)?: I don't like when I leave comment after comment on entries to my LJ friend, and that person never bothers to reply to a single message. That's really a let-down. I hate hypocricy, homophobia, sexism, people blinded by themselves and fakeness.

Other favorites: Books, Movies, TV, Music?: Many, many books. Same goes for the films, since I'd like to be an actress one day! And I have this special love for animated Disney movies. They so remind me of my childhood. From TV I watch Grey's Anatomy and a couple of other shows that always have the luck of getting canceled. And I love music...am into rock and punk, but also indie and pop. I don't like disco, hip-hop and stuff like that, but have no problem with other people liking it. Sometimes I just can't help and make fun of it.

:)

PS: Excuse this typo-friendly comment. It's so late here where I live, and being the lovely insomnia zombie I am, I'm still awake, filling out a Harry Potter friending survey. yay for having a life! :D But Harry's all i need, really!

Name: Lina (but my full name is Caroline).

Age: Seventeen, turning eighteen in September.

How long have you been into HP? What got you into it?: I've been into Harry Potter for eight years. I got into it because my fourth grade teacher read it to the class. He used to pronounce Hermione's name "Her-me-own", haha.

What are some of your favorite HP pairings?: Ron/Hermione, Draco/Hermione (for fanfiction), Neville/Luna, Remus/Lily, Severus/Lily.

What characters/pairings do you talk about most often in your journal?: For characters, Remus, Neville and Ronald. For ships, definitely Ron and Hermione (good shipper for five years!).

What's your favorite of the seven books?: It's hard to choose between Order of the Phoenix, Deathly Hallows and Goblet of Fire.

What's your favorite of the movie adaptations?: Order of the Phoenix. Even if it was butchered, I really, really enjoyed it.

What's your least favorite book and movie?: Actually, I'm not sure. Part of me wants to say Philosopher's Stone for both, but I think it might just be because it's been so long.

Do you do any fanworks (art, fic, icons, etc.)? If so, what?: I used to doodle a lot in high school, but I never put it on the internet. I do (or rather did) icons at [livejournal.com profile] amortentia_.

What are some of your pet peeves/dislikes (real-life or fandom)?: I can't stand when people are rude, ignorant and inconsiderate. Or when they put their feet on the dashboard when they are passengers. But that was random. I also don't enjoy it when people bash on ships or characters.

Other favorites: Books, Movies, TV, Music?: Some of my favorite books include Atonement by Ian McEwan, A Series of Unfortunate Events by "Lemony Snicket", Emma by Jane Austen, The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald and The Sun Also Rises by Ernest Hemingway. I love loads of movies. Some of my favorites are Catch Me If You Can, Love Actually, Saving Private Ryan and School of Rock. I only watch the Disneychannel and Dancing with the Stars. My music taste is sort of random (my last.fm page (http://www.last.fm/user/mmtakeheart)).

Anything else?: I start at UCI in September, I'm addicted to onesentence.org, I adore almost anything British (except for the food) and I salsa dance. Oh and I'm random. :)

I adore almost anything British (except for the food)
Haha, me too. I just can't stand backed beans and stuff like that. But otherwise I love the british lifestyle. I'd really love to go there and experience it.

btw: I also loved school of rock xD Can't get enough of Jack Black as well.

There's just something about England that captures my heart. I can't wait to visit one day and experience it first-hand. :)

School of Rock pretty much owned my soul when I was a freshman. It was an unhealthy obsession that got to the point where I could put my head down in class and play it in my mind! x) Hahaha, well I'm not so obsessed with it now, but I do quote it from time to time. ;)

What's your favorite of the seven books?: I dunno. The one where Ron has either a kiss or some brilliant relevation. All of them.

What's your favorite of the movie adaptations?: So far, it'd have to be OotP. It was previously PoA, but -- well -- OotP had tons more R/Hr moments. It made my toes curl.

What are some of your pet peeves/dislikes (real-life or fandom)?: A pet-peeve about fandom is that you can meet some really shitty, uptight people whose only goal is to hate and act like they're above others. I plain dislike real life.

Other favorites: Books, Movies, TV, Music?: As for books, I'm into Stephenie Meyer's novels. Films -- anything dramatic. Like, scrape-the-bottom-of-the-pan, punch-you-in-the-gut, gritty dramas. Music's the same. I don't watch much TV, but if I do, I watch Modern Marvels on the History Channel. Or Degrassi. And, of course, WWE.

How long have you been into HP? What got you into it?: I've been into HP since 2000. The reason I got into it was because I was working at the WB Studio Stores when I was in college. I went home for the summer and when I came back everything was Harry Potter. I figured if I'm going to be selling it, I might as well read the books. :)

What are some of your favorite HP characters?: Snape, Ron, and Harry are my favorites.

What are some of your favorite HP pairings?: My OTP is Ron/Hermione. I also like Harry/Ginny, Snape/Lily, and Rose/Scorpius (but not as Draco/Hermione 2.0).

What characters/pairings do you talk about most often in your journal?: Ron/Hermione, Snape, Rose/Scorpius

What's your favorite of the seven books?: Deathy Hallows. CoS comes in a CLOSE second.

What's your favorite of the movie adaptations?: It's a really close tie between OotP and CoS.

What's your least favorite book and movie?: Least favorite out of the books is OotP; leas favorite out of the movies is GoF.

Do you do any fanworks (art, fic, icons, etc.)? If so, what?: I'm a beginner when it comes to icons, but I'm learning quickly. I don't write fanfiction for HP, but I do read a ton of it and try to recommend good ones.

What non-HP fandoms are you into?: One Tree Hill and Buffy are my two other main fandoms...but I watch a ton of TV including Supernatural, Prison Break, Smallville, 24, Bones, The Office, Criminal Minds, Friday Night Lights, House, and a variety of past tv shows like Alias and Roswell.

What do you post about outside of fandom?: my life and music

What are you looking for in an LJ-friend? (this can include anything from 'someone who'll comment' to 'someone to RP with' etc.) I'm looking for someone who will comment and make various recommendations about the things they're into. I would also prefer it if people on my friends list were over 18, but it's not something I will stick to as a general rule. I'm just looking for mature individuals.

What are some of your pet peeves/dislikes (real-life or fandom)?: hypocrisy and disloyalty are my two biggest pet peeves.

Other favorites: Books, Movies, TV, Music?: See above for TV shows. I love reading all kinds of books especially fantasy, suspense/horror, and historical fiction. I'm into all genres of movies especially fantasy/horror, action/adventure, and romantic comedy. As for music, I rule nothing out. I'm a fan of good music, but my tastes do veer to indie rock, alternative, and singer/songwriter.

Anything else?: I'm just looking for cool peeps who are not afraid of a mixture of ranting and squeeing. :)

Name: Tya

Age: 15. I feel like a baby because I've been reading the other posts, and everyone is around 20. But I will be 16 soon, people!

How long have you been into HP? What got you into it?: Umm well I've liked it since grade 5. But didn't really start obsessing until the first 2 movies were out. I used to hate it, actually, until my friend bet me I couldn't read the first one. So I read it, and loved it!

What are some of your favorite HP characters?: Ron, and Snape. <3

What are some of your favorite HP pairings?: Ron/Hermione, Snape/Lily, and my friend just introduced me to Rose/Scorpius, which I am finding really cute.

What characters/pairings do you talk about most often in your journal?: Ron/Hermione I suppose.

What's your favorite of the seven books?: I love Deathly Hallows. And also Half-Blood Prince.

What's your favorite of the movie adaptations?: The first two, definitely.

What's your least favorite book and movie?: My least favourite movie is the 3rd one. But I don't really have a least favourite book.

Do you do any fanworks (art, fic, icons, etc.)? If so, what?: I can't draw. At all. And I fail at computer graphics. I do attempt to write fanfiction, but I realize if I ever posted it on the internet it would be bashed on babb right away. So I just write it for myself.

What non-HP fandoms are you into?: Umm nothing, actualy. Haha.

What do you post about outside of fandom?: My life. It's quite interesting, really! (okay, that's a lie. but sometimes interesting things happen.)

What are some of your pet peeves/dislikes (real-life or fandom)?: I really don't like the snow. Because if you wear gloves that make it so you are able to move your fingers, the snow always melts through and your hands get cold. But if you wear some that the snow doesn't melt through, it's impossible to move your fingers. And it annoys me.

Other favorites: Books, Movies, TV, Music?: Erm, well I really love the Georgia Nicolson books. They're pretty funny. And I've just started reading a book called Twilight, which is really good so far! I don't watch much tv, to be honest. But I do like to watch the Comedy Network at 1 in the morning while I have my midnight snack and watch stand up comedy. And I like all kinds of music. :)

Anything else?: Yesterday I put a Ron poster above my bed. ;)
