A little over a year ago I started writing a fan fiction, In Moonlight’s Shadow, that was about one of the characters in my Albus Severus Potter series. It soon became the longest and best (in my opinion) story I’ve ever written, including original fiction. I just kept thinking up more and more plot points [...]

I have been an avid watcher of Jon & Kate Plus 8 for about nine months. I watched nearly every episode since going to school and actually having cable. After just the first episode, I was hooked. I was very impressed with Jon & Kate and the kids are adorable. Jon & Kate show so [...]

Four weeks ago, I was at the first Wrock concert during LeakyCon. I only knew my family and one girl I had talked to online for a year and a half prior to the Con. It is hard to believe that it has been four weeks since LeakyCon started.
Now, four weeks later, I am [...]

Last night my dad came home and told us someone had baked him muffins, but he left them at work. My sister was quite disappointed because she loves muffins. My dad said he’d go back and get them because he had to go to the store I work at anyway to buy soda.
My sister, brother, [...]

How many Harry Potter fans can you fit in an elevator? A lot. We discovered that at LeakyCon. At least once a day I found myself crammed into an elevator with at least ten other people.
One of the times that we did this, the elevator made a very strange noise and lurched. Everyone ran off [...]

On the last night of LeakyCon, there was a ball. People wore a variety of clothing, from Prom dresses to Harry Potter costumes to Muggle wear. My family was a good representation of the whole spectrum. I wore my Professor Trelawney costume but didn’t frizz my hair out, so I was just a random witch [...]

My sister has a Garage Band addiction and often asked me if she could use my laptop to play around with it. Since I now have a new MacBook, she asked if she could use my old iBook. I let her.
As she was using it, the screen inevitably turned white. It did this a few [...]

Remember the survey I took about the smoke detectors in my house? The man who had called me told me I would be entered into a contest to win a $1200 home security system for participating in his survey.
The other day the phone rang and my sister answered it. She handed me the phone and [...]

Why does it not surprise me that Warner Brothers has changed the release date of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince again? Oh, wait, I know why! Because they did it not only once, but twice. This makes it the third time. Three times. I cannot think of another movie that has had its release [...]

Last night we went out for Chinse food and I had to drive separately since I had to work right after. In the two years I’ve owned my car I have never known how to turn on the car alarm.
After we finished eating I got into my car. My mom came over to say goodbye [...]
