I have goodies to share

danazraella — Mon, 31 Aug 2009 23:44:03 +0000

Well. Not share, but to show off and brag. I want to thank Agatha Vablatsky for her lovely and thoughtful Care of Magical Creatures package she sent me.

Considering I just spent 90% of my tax refund on a giant stuffed polar bear the idea of making an (evil) army of Otto’s to achieve my goal of world domination through chilly cuteness really appeals. Enclosed there was Cotton Ease, needles, the pattern, Animal crackers (because world domination makes you kinda snacky) some flowers because I’m da princess. Best of all there were porper eyes and NOSES! OMG the noses are so cute. I have a thing for animal noses. The only reason I like hedgehogs is because they have the most wicked cute noses!!

Agatha when I take over the world you’ll definitly get a big huge house or Belgium..either or…*Mwah!*

Thank You so much!!

I started a real me blog this week and realy I haven’t felt ok for a while so trying to be someone else is messing with me. (that makes more sense if you’ve played D and D, I think) but I’m going to cross post something from my rl. blog for your amusement (I know I sound like a chimpunk on speed, yes it’s funny
)

Summer Drinks?

danazraella — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 15:14:39 +0000

Summer is here (once every few days…I mean mid-July and I have to wear a sweater) but when asked about my favourite summer drink I have to post. Noblis Oblige and all that, right? I made this drink when I was about 9-10 and discovered it by accident. It’s a third Berry Blue KoolAid, a third lemonaid and 1 third Cola (reg or diet) It turns green and it foams. Scariest looking drink ever. I drank it all the time one summer, had a perpetually blue tounge. I looked like a newt. Which is what my best friend and I called it.

..Even I know how to use spell check …usually..

Good Luck and Have Fun!! Let the anagram solving begin! In the second volume of the HP books by JK Rowling, The (#1)Chamber of Secrets, we continue to learn the incredible adventures of Hogwarts student (#2) Hary Potter and his friends (#3) Ron Weasley and (#4) Hermionie Granger. Belonging to the house of (#5) Gryffindor, they attend Defense Against the (#6) Ark Darts taught by Wizarding celebrity (#7) Gilderoy Lockhart, a none-too-bright fellow who cannot even handle pixies! In The (#8)Chamber of secrets, we also meet Dobby a (#9)House Elf for the first time. Determined Dobby seeks to sabotage the return of (#10)Harry Potter to Hogwarts and is pretty persistent but is unsuccessful. After a few weeks at school, the deceased Ravenclaw student who haunts the girls lavatory, also known as (#11) Moaning Myrtle, shows (#12) Harry Potter and (#13) Ron Weasley an old empty diary that dropped through her ghostly form out of thin air! Many nifty things continue to happen for the next several months… we won’t go into all the juicy details right now… however, the ending is prime reading indeed!! (#14)Harry Potter finally kills Tom Riddle’s (a.k.a #15 Voldemort) sneaky diary (which we now know is a #16 Horcrux) and saves the sister of (#17) Ron Weasley, (#18) Ginny Weasley!!! Oh! Of course, we must mention that the thickheaded (#19) Gilderoy Lockhart unintentionally erased his own memory, so he won’t be back for book three, The (#20) Prisoner of Azkaban…

There are bugs…the brochure never mentioned BUGS.

So last year I didn’t exactly finish Muggle Relations. Well I passed but I needed at least an E . Which I almost got. Luckily Professor Burbage (did you know she had a cousin who was killed by Voldemort…?) Offered to give me a “pending” grade if I took this “laptop” and went back to writing a “blog”. [It's worse than learning a foreign language this muggle terminology. At least most foreign languages sound like bowel complaints. ] I have been at camp writing a bit here and there and I have come to a few conclusions. One a laptop is never to be left on your lap as it gets very, very hot. Two I can write all I want but I have to stand on the top of the cabin and face south if I want it to post. Because owl post would be less complicated. I truly think that Prof. B. is just trying to kill me I really do.

Camp. Camp, for the uninitiated, is a cabin in the woods, with nature. Nature is bugs. Oh, people will tell you that it’s lakes, trees, plants and animals but in reality…every one of these things leads. to .bugs. Lakes breed musquitos, trees breed grubs and catipillars, dead trees beetles and worms, animals have fleas or ticks and flowers make bees. Oh look a butterfly….wait no that’s a moth trying to eat my yarn. Nature is just so dirty and unhygienic. Things out here just randomly poop. Anywhere they want just ” hmm. i feel like pooping” then BAM poop. AND NO ONE CLEANS IT UP. A big huge counrty side complete with poop. It’s digusting. I’m a Hogwarts student, get me out of here!

Pack of Lies!

So I am banished to “camp”. Like blog is reminiscent of indigestion, camp is uncomfortably associated with polyester mesh shirts. “Camp” = orange stretch pants with purple leg warmers.

I am sharing a room with girls from different houses. It’s like living in a giant social experiment. Any moment now I expect to hear a voice over by David Attenborough. “And the Ravenclaw preferring to keep her territory clean takes exception to the Hufflepuff’s bra being layed out on the table. A confrontation will no doubt ensue after her feathers have been ruffled.”

*eyeroll*

In a fit of bonding we are playing 3 Truths and A Lie

* I went to a French Immersion primary school

* I watch pro wrestling as it’s a modern day soap opera

* I am afraid of rabbits.

* I tested highly for both Slytherin and Gryffindor.

Stu-Pendous Indeed!!!!

My package came last week but between homework and exhaustion I never goot to blog. I only got to take the picture Sunday!! ’My downstream partner was Stu!! Of Ravenclaw (who eventually got unpinned from the book in the library). I love Stu..not like that of course, I mean I have standards, I mean a Ravencalw?!. Exactly. But I am willing to admit that Stu rocks!

To say I love everything is no overstatement. There was magnets with a Potter theme and one of my Ravatar! There was enough candy to fill Honeydukes and Caramel flavoured tea from Madam Puddifoot’s that also has a really cool tea “ball” shaped like a lemon… Being a Ravenclaw Stu is fatastically organized and sent a full truseau of knit gear. There was a project bag (love!!!!1!!) with snippers, stitch markers, a bracelet counter, which I was wearing so not actually pictured (see I am actualy knitting!!), a note pad I am not organized enough to use. Seriously If i make a pair of socks that match it’s a coincidence! There was my fave type of needles, Knitpicks Circs. (1 sock on 1 circ is the method of choice dispite the face my monkeys are on pony dpns). The best things about this is the yarn of choice. All dark and evil like! Like me! it’s by Fearless Fibers ( http://fearlessfibers.etsy.com My love affair with etsy deepens) and the patterns I am totally in love with the wveryn lady socks. Tho I have to say the yarn may become a shawl (the yardage is excellent, the sheen is phenominal and it’s just drop dead evilusious! oh new word [TM]). There is a bottle of Feliz Felicitas (which i think will taste like maple syrup …. {or rum}). But the favourite thing ever?!?!?! The purse. Dude, Stu, can sew!! I am totally using this bag everyday! I love this bag soo damn much it’s just the best thing since ever. Heart love. The lining and the knit bag match, cuz Stu is organized like that. I love this package and i Love Stu. Iéd kiss him but really that would totally be leading him on and I’m only a little evil not hugely so. tho I did get this… a henna/glitter peacock! So maybe I am distantly related to the Malfroys?

Love You Stu!!

Just when you think it’s safe to assume

I’ve been doing some reasearch into the shard of Cassandra and coming up with nothing. I even tried being nice to a Ravenclaw ! (Have I sunk so low?!) But it was for nothing. Well it was kinda funny when the kid picked up that huge tome and then fell ovewr pinned under it and then leaving him there… I mean he had already looked through it so there was no point in helping him up, right?

I snuck out a few times this week. Back to Hogsmede, the Hog’s Head to be exact. I made an invisibility cloak but apparently I didn’t do such a good job the second time I wore it and somehow the spell washed off in the rain…can you scotch guard charms? Still Alberforth didn’t seem surprised I was there. One nigfht there were only 2 peeople in the pub and I was going to just leave but I struck up a conversation with him, which is hard to do with someone so ridgidly mono-syllabic . I was able to pick up a few trinkets in the chat. The Ministry has determined the theft was only for the shard and the found items were planted there by the real thief. And that whole illegal charms on a goat? True. Apparently he made it talk. ~I shouldn’t have said that.~
