Hunger Games (again)!

Caution: Spoilers Ahead
Okay, so you know how everyone alway goes "Team Peeta!" or "Team Gale!"? Well, I, along with several others, are Team FINNICK! (I used to be Team Haymitch, but I switched :).) I finished Catching Fire today, and Finnick is just totally awesome! Anyone else think that Finnick Odair is one of the best characters in HG? You're awesome if you do. I already know that he dies in Mockingjay, but even so, I'll be crying my eyes out like when Snape died. (Don't judge me!)
My top three favorite characters:
1. Finnick Odair, the awesome
2. Effie Trinket, the comic-relief
3. Haymitch Abernathy, the drunk
Before I read Catching Fire, this is how that list was
1. Effie Trinket, the comic-relief
2. Haymitch Abernathy, the drunk
3. Tie with Cinna and Rue. Cinna, the thank-God-he's-not-like-Effie-or-any-of-the-other-Capitol-people, or Rue, the OMG-I-couldn't-stop-crying-when-she-died.
So, yeah. I'm kind of glad Cinna and Rue are off because their description things took a while to write.
Well, there will be a new poll out soon! Next post has more info about the poll! (It's an HG one).
This is Hermione signing off. And may the odds be ever in your favor.

Hunger Games!

I just got back from the Hunger Games movie! It was sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo cool! I dressed up as Effie Trinket, two of my friends were Katniss, and one was Rue. At first, the camera work stinks, but the rest is awesome. 
I have one request: leave a comment on you FAVE HG pair: Katniss and Gale, Katniss and Peeta, or Effie and Haymitch. Thanks!
May the odds be ever in your favor.

So, most of you have voted on the poll "If slugs you could give slugs a noise, which would it be?" Here are the results:
In first place, with 5 votes is "Loddle" at 71%
Tied for second with one vote each is "Mrph" and "Tulu." They had 14% of voters each.
Finally, "Pop" was last, with no votes at all. :'(
There you have it! And here is a picture for the winner, "Loddle," drawn by yours truly:

I'm Back!

Hey, guys, I haven't posted for a few days, 'cause I was making sure you guys saw the survey and participated if you wanted to (thanks, Julia and Jennifer!) If you haven't seen it and want to participate, then scroll down.
I'm going to be posting pictures of my dog soon. In most of them she'll be sleeping, but she is the World's Laziest Dog, so...yeah. I'll post some today or tomorrow.

About HP Trivia

Think you know Harry Potter? Know you know Harry Potter? Test your knowledge with Harry Potter Trivia! If you are a friend or just someone who goes to school with me (you know who you are) contact me and I'll have you over to film the quiz show! I've been coming up with very hard questions. You have to think outside the books. So if you want to be quizzed, you have to learn behind the scenes secrets of the movies, reread the books, and read interviews with the author, Miss Joanne Kathleen Rowling, that go beyond the epilogue. Good luck! Here are s few sample questions: 
 Who does Draco Malfoy marry? (Not mentioned in books)
a) Pansy Parkinson
b) Arabella Black
c) Astoria Greengrass

Answer: C
Most of you probably chose Pansy Parkinson. The answer was Astoria Greengrass, which you probably did not know. J. K. Rowling tells us this in an interview with several lucky children in Scotland. This is why you must think outside the books. You never know when a question like "How tall is Daniel Radcliffe?" might pop up. Good luck to those of you who want to enter!

Time Problem

Okay, this is just something that I want to explain to you guys who noticed the times under my posts: they're completely wrong! Something happened...I don't know what...and now one says I posted at five in the morning, another at two in the afternoon...weird. Just wanted to clarify that I didn't get up at five in the morning to post.
