 I cannot believe my luck! Last week I got to see Deathly Hallows part 1, and tonight I got to see Deathly Hallows part 2! It was amazing... such a bittersweet but satisfying end.

*sigh*

The Harry Potter saga is officially over... all the books, finished. And now, all the movies. 

random drabble..

It just seems really weird to me that i got so many votes for Gryffindor.. I mean, yeah, I sounded a bit excited on my application, but it didn't occur to me that excited=Gryffindor to some people.
Then again.. I also tried to be 'fair' to all the houses.. I actually deliberately stifled any impulses to promote any House i thought I should be in, and included all my charictaristic inconsistancies, hoping that it would even out into a 'fair vote'... But I was wrong.

But, you might ask, why can't you be satisfied with being in Gryfindor? ..Most HP fans would be overjoyed to be sorted into that house!
I have nothing against that house, for me, it's a matter of principle, and of where I feel comfortable.

While I was answering questions to the first application, I also browsed around [livejournal.com profile] hogwartsishome a little, and When I got to the list of students part, i was thinking "hmm.. I'll bet theres alot more hufflepuffs than any other house, and probably should be less gryffindor, because real bravery is very rare.." Well, to my surprise, gryffindor turns out to have the most students of all the houses! about 60 more than Slytherin, 20 more than Ravenclaw, and 10 more than Hufflepuff! (which I had kinda accurately guessed, because it's the 2nd largest)
And i got to thinking... this should be evened out.. because it does seem a bit unfair that certain houses have less people to go and do activities to earn points, and heres Gryffindor, with a whopping 160+ students, thier likelyhood of bringing in more points is significantly larger because of their size.

Besides.. theres already a huge bias set in the HP books towards Gryffindor! I mean, most of the main characters are from that house! and since it's in Harry's (a gryff's!) POV, the 'puffs seem crabby and suspicious, the 'claws don't seem very smart at all ('cept for Luna), the slytherins are pure evil (which i strongly disagree with, they're just misunderstood! and hardened by the ever-growing scorn from the other houses) it seems that the only house we really know anything about is Gryffindor.. since we know all the personalities of the main characters, theres so many qualities that we can see in a person that are also possesed by a gryffidor character.. and so automatically you make that false assumption that just because they have these certain qualities, they should be in gryffindor! ..and on it goes in a vicious circle.. grr!

Hmm... saw the first firefly of summer this evening, it reminded me of when me & my sisters used to go catching them as soon as we saw the first ones come out. Fireflies have got to be the ultimate symbol of summer to me for some reason...

And the most highly anticipated movie in my life- The Prisoner Of Azkaban is going to be in theaters tomorrow. And I'm still begging Mom and dad to let me see it on opening day. Grr... I sincerely hope that they give in!

Sirius Black

Parody of "Baby Got Back" by Sir Mix-A-Lot

 

(Spoken, by Malfoy:)

Oh.. my.. Lord, Crabbe, Goyle, will you look at that Potter. He thinks he's so great just because the Dark Lord gave him a cut on his head twelve years ago. But, you know, who deserves to understand the Dark Lord anyway? He only talked to Potter through that book because he wanted to take care of unfinished business, okay? I mean, Harry's friends are just so revolting, I can't believe he hangs out with that mudblood girl, and that Weasley, and his hair - it's so, black!

 

(Harry:)

It's my third year and I cannot lie

You other wizards can't deny

After I broke free from the Dursleys' barge

Having blown up my Aunt Marge

I escaped with my hair all mussed

Got aboard the old Knight Bus

Its speed is so exciting

You'd think Keanu was driving

The minister said, "No problem"

In the Leaky Cauldron

I thought that I'd be finished

Faster than you could say ("Qui-Qui-Quidditch")

Diagon Alley with Ron and Hermione

That book of monsters

Bite my hand off it wants ta!

Crookshanks is after Ron's pet rat Scabbers

That cat, that rat, in a Tom and Jerry spat

I heard some dreadful news

There's a madman on the loose

He killed twelve muggles with just one spell

And now he's mad as hell

So Ron ("Yeah?") Ron ("Yeah?") (ron's voice in this is so cool!)

Who's the world's most wanted man? ("Dunno")

That prisoner ("Prisoner?") Prisoner ("Prisoner")

Who escaped from Azkaban

Sirius Black

 

(Toad chorus:)

Double double toil and trouble

Fire burn and cauldron bubble

Double double toil and trouble

Something wicked this way comes

(Harry: "Sirius Black")

Double double toil and trouble

Fire burn and cauldron bubble

Double double toil and trouble

Something wicked this way comes

 

(Harry:)

Dementors on the train drive me insane

I just can't help myself, I'm cold and I've fainted

My brain is tainted

With memories of ("AAAAA!") VOLDEMORT ("AAAAAAA!")

I'm not talking 'bout Malfoy

His father's just one of Voldy's toys

Professor Trelawny's a Seer

But if you ask me her lesson's just a bunch of guessin

She tells me I'll die any second

So I'm in class with Remus

Boggart's gone with "Riddikulus!"

If I study bonus I'll produce a full Patronus

They took away the broom I got for Christmas

Want to check it for jinxes

Can't even go to Hogsmeade unless I've got-

-the Marauder's Map!

Malfoy's full of crap, and I want to go after Black

They say he'll kill at will

But I'd rather fry the guy

'Cause he's bad, and he's mad

He betrayed my Mum and Dad!

So Hermione ("What?") Hermione ("What?")

I'd rather find him than have him find me ("Harry...!")

He's one bad mugglef- ("Shut your mouth!")

Even Malfoy's got to shout

 

Malfoy: Sirius Black... you know Potter, when it comes to the dark arts that Sirius guy's got nothing on my extended family. (cause he is his extended family!)

Harry: Shut up, Malfoy, this is my rap!

Malfoy: Scared, Potter?

Harry: You wish

Malfoy: Come on, give up the mike!

Harry: I said no.

Malfoy: Professor! Potter's not lettin' me represent for the Dark side!

Snape: Potter, let Malfoy kick it old school or it's detention!

Malfoy: I've got a weak arm you know

Harry: Alright fine, here it is!

Malfoy: Heh, this one's for all the Slytherins, wee-yotch.

 

So you think you can curse or damn me

Or say my acting's hammy

But if you want me to care then understand me:

My pureblood family

Don't want buds unless they're not mudbloods!

When they intermarry with muggles

It just makes me sick to my gut

I bought my way into Quidditch

You can do that when your father's rich

It's power I desire - you don't see me sing in no choirs!

When an animal bites my arm

I can do it far more harm

'Cause my dad can claim that it maimed the students

And then execute it

Some wizards want to go to Gryffindor

But me I want a little bit more

Than the small, meek and measley

Like the bottom-feeders Weasley

They love non-magic folk

Is it any wonder they're broke?

Now this Sirius guy has come kickin'

And I understand if you're chicken

But Potter if it were me, I'd want revenge you see

I'd curse his ass and send him back

Into the Shrieking Shack, Sirius Black!

 

(Toad chorus:)

Double double toil and trouble

Fire burn and cauldron bubble

Double double toil and trouble

Fire burn and cauldron bubble

Double double toil and trouble

Fire burn and cauldron bubble

Double double toil and trouble

Fire burn and cauldron...

Something wicked this way comes

Something wicked this way comes

Something wicked this way comes

Something wicked this way comes

 

(Harry:)

Why would I go looking for someone who wants to kill me?
