The Little Things

Hello! I have been nominated for an award thanks to Lily. I know I haven't been doing awards much lately, but I've decided to change that. I NEED to get that Christmas post off of my homepage :P.
Normally awards are the bane of a blogger's existence. This one, however, I felt was rather sweet. Ladies and gentleman, may I present...
The Little Things Tag.
#1: One thing that makes you feel beautiful?
I suppose taking off my glasses and letting my hair down. And then I come to the conclusion that I need my glasses to see...
#2: What's something that people compliment you on?
While I have gotten appearance compliments like "nice haircut" and stuff, I love it when people say things like "thank you for being such a good friend!"
#3: What's one of your insecurities?
My height.
#4: If you could tell every insecure person in the world one thing, what would it be?
I would just walk up to them, look them in the eye and give them a big compliment. And then walk away.
#5: Do you talk in your sleep?
No. But I cry. Not all the time, just during a sad dream. Which, luckily, doesn't happen too often.
#6: Little things you appreciate about life?
That "even in the darkness, every color can be found" (Dr. Horrible quote).
#7: Favorite little things about someone you love?
My favorite thing about Harry Potter (I don't feel like getting personal) is that he causes so much stress, heartbreak, and emotion that you feel like you raised him yourself.
#8: Something someone said to you that made you feel self-conscious?
I don't let other people's opinions affect me.
#9: If you could change one thing about yourself, what would it be?
Nothing. I'm PERFECT. Just kidding, but seriously, I wouldn't want to change anything.
#10: What's one thing about yourself that you would never change?
I just sort of answered the reverse of this. So, now I reply with the reverse answer: everything. I want to stay who I am.This makes me sound sort of self-centered, but, whatever.
Tagging: Who ever wants to do this!
Bye!

Happy Blog-Aversary!!!

Hi everybody! Well, it's been one year since I started Everything Hermione, and what better way to celebrate this day than with a contest!

But before we get to that, I have to thank each and everyone of my followers. Thank you guys so much for helping me to make Everything Hermione what it is today. Even when I don't post for weeks you guys are always there when I come back. And when I go on those excessively long rants to which most would respond by hitting themselves over the head with a baseball bat, you guys comment with your kind words. Your comments always make my day. I would especially like to thank July for being my first ever follower. I was pretty much giving up on blogging before she joined :). Also, special shot-out to Hilda, who has such kind words in her comments for nearly every post. All of you have been incredibly loyal to me and I am lucky to have had you jump on board this past year. Thank you all for joining EH this year, and I now we'll have lots more fun for the years to come.

Now back to the contest :D.

This contest is going to be a writing contest. I will set out a series of several titles. You must pick one to use for your story. Here are the rules:

1) Story length is unlimited. You can have it ten pages or two sentences! Of course, stories of one or two pages are easier to judge and have a better chance of winning!

2) Entries are do by Midnight on March 2nd--no later unless the deadline is extended.

3) Stories can be of any genre.

4) Stories of inappropriate content will not be accepted. If you get them in early enough, then  I will send it back to you and give you the chance to fix it.

5) Depending on the error, points may or may not be taken off. If you typed "you can'tt" instead of "you can't," I wouldn't take off points. But if you typed "that ain't write," instead of "that isn't right," points WOULD be taken off.

6) Please email your entry to hermionegranger2121@gmail.com. While commenting is acceptable, an email is preferred :).

7) Prize is the option of one guest post or, if you're up to the commitment, a weekly slot during the whole month of April!

8) Have fun!

Here are your titles:

-The Attack of the Vicious Birthday-Cake Eating Bunny Slippers

-Revenge of the Birthday Candles

-The Mysterious Present

-Noodles the Clown: The Story of Why you Should Never Become a Birthday Entertainer

-The Great Wrapping Paper War

Have fun with these crazy Birthday-Inspired titles! I can't wait to see what you come up with.

See ya <3!

My Sincerest Apologies

I am so incredibly sorry that I haven't been posting. I've been very busy lately, trying to juggle music lessons, art lessons, play rehearsals, extra curricular activities, and, most of all, school.
It's 2nd semester and the teachers have been loading us down with homework. Just what I need right now.
I promise you that I WILL post more. I don't have another play rehearsal for about a month, so that opens up some space. And it's a long weekend, so...yeah. Also, I'be got about 20 unfinished posts, so I can start shipping some of those out.
Until then,
Hermione
