"To play Sam, who is so alive and so free and spontaneous and young was the best thing I could have done. It helped me break down a lot of barriers, listen to myself, and not care so much about what anybody else is thinking about me.”- Emma on Perks of Being A Wallflower

-Charles Bukowski

Hello everyone!!! Its been quite awhile since I last made a set!! (Been busy with exams and schoolwork) So anyways, during Christmas break, I went to NYC for the first time and may I say, New York, is a MARVELOUS city!! It is so inspirational and lovely and absolutely breath-taking. I love the architectures, the fashion I see on the windows display, Times Square, everything. Then, I went to the Top of the Rock and saw the entire view of New York City!! It was so beautiful...all the city lights were fashing and flickering, small vivid taxis rushing to their wherabouts, and the Empire building right in front of your eyes..its the City of Dreams. I hope maybe I can study there someday..or perhaps go to London for college :)
I've been inspired by both Billy Joel's song and New York itself so hope you all enjoy my set!! :) xoxoxo -Chloe
 
LYRICS:
Some folks like to get away, Take a holiday from the neighborhood. Hop a flight to Miami Beach or to Hollywood. But I'm takin' a Greyhound on the Hudson River line. I'm in a New York state of mind.I've seen all the movie stars in their fancy cars and their limousines. Been high in the Rockies under the evergreens. I know what I'm needin', and I don't want to waste more time. I'm in a New York state of mind.
It was so easy livin' day by day Out of touch with the rhythm and blues But now I need a little give and take The New York Times, the Daily News.
It comes down to reality, and its fine with me cause I've let it slide. [ From: I don't care if it's Chinatown or on Riverside. I don't have any reasons. I left them all behind. I'm in a New York state of mind.It was so easy living day by day Out of touch with the rhythm and blues But now I need a little give and take The New York Times, the Daily News.
It comes down to reality, and its fine with me cause I've let it slide. I don't care if it's Chinatown or on Riverside. I don't have any reasons. I left them all behind. I'm in a New York state of mind.

CHAPTER 2:
 
I woke up to the displeasant sound of Snape’s unpleasant voice that had an anger tone to it. He was teaching Potions class at the time. He rushed towards my desk within an instant and grabbed me by the collars….”Wake up…..you….bumbling girl…” he snarled. He propped me up to his height while clutching my collar on my uniform. At that point, I woke up and was petrified. The first thing I saw when I woke up was the unhappy face of Severus Snape. How……..mortifying right?
 

I gulped… He studied my face for a while and looked me straight in the eye. “Never….fall asleep in Potions class…” he snarled. I avoided making eye contact with his dark, mysterious black eyes…it was as if they had no pure soul just looking at them. Merlin, if I had to look Snape in the eye, I just may as well die. He glared at me one last glance and let go of the grasp of my collar carelessly. Then he turned and muttered, “Five points….taken from Gryffindor..”. Half the Slytherins chuckled and broke into an uproar of sheer happiness. I saw Snape’s expression on his face…it broke into a wicked grin and he snorted at me. I looked at my peers, in the dusty old room with only one window in the class, with one ray of sunlight shining in on Snape’s desk. They all frowned at me….with pure meaness in their faces..I crossed my arms in frustration, filled and boiled with anger.
I saw Malfoy whom was sitting at a table to my right. He laughed and snickered with his friends..then suddenly his friends saw me and stopped laughing…and so did Malfoy. He turned around and saw me looking upset…He gave me a wink and a smile..I rolled my eyes at him.
 
“Stop…the bickering!” he hissed at everyone..everyone remained quiet. Just then class was over, and everyone got up to leave quickly. Snape was sitting at his desk,eyeing me, while tapping his fingers rhythmically.
 
I grabbed my books and just then Malfoy bumped into me once again. His friends sneered and snickered, but Malfoy didn’t. “S-Sorry..” he whispered..and winked at me again and left..I hated Malfoy terribly..his parents were just impacted by me when they found me in Flourish and Blotts. I guess that’s when I first met Draco. I was reading my books and his parents were there and Lucius, however, eyed on me uncontrollably..he whispered to his son, who was by his side and he walked towards me and introduced himself. I had a great conversation with him until I realized he was a terrible person at Hogwarts.
Enough of that…I sighed and moaned about my books and bent down to pick my Herbology, Astronomy, and The Care of Magical Creatures book. I stacked them up into one and was about to head to my other class when I heard someone’s footsteps approaching towards me. I mumbled angrily, knowing its Snape. I looked up and to my surprise, it wasn’t him. A friendly boy with a lightning scar shot a smile at me. He held my History of Magic book. “Oh…” I stuttered..I didn’t know what to say..I wanted to say thanks but nothing came out. He bent down to his knees to my level and handed it to me. “I’m sorry for the way Snape has treated you today,” he whispered to me. I smiled at him. “Its okay, Harry…I guess he’s just trying to…..” my voice trailed off in wonder. I, myself didn’t know why. I remained silent, determined to figure out why. Then Snape’s footsteps broke the silence. I saw his black shiny shoes stop to a halt just by my side. I looked up timidly and there he was, staring down at me, with his arms crossed firmly.. .
 
”Are you trying to be an impecible dolt and waste my time because its certainly working dear…” I was about to argue back but Harry interrupted.
“Professor, I’m sorry, its just, I don’t quite think she deserves to be tre-"
 
“Stay...out...of.this.POTTER!”
 
Harry gulped…
”Unless,” Snape snarled and gave that wicked grin to us..
”You want 15 points taken off of Gryffindor..” he chuckled cruelly. I looked down solemnly at my feet and grabbed my books and was about to leave when he grabbed my collar again, choking me and tightening my pulse. Harry nodded at Snape and looked at me one last glance, and sadly walked away…and shut the door.
 
I let go of his grasp against my collar and stormed out of the room in a hurry.
 
I went to Defense Against the Dark Arts class which wasn’t far from Potions...As I opened the door to the classroom. All eyes were on me….
 
Class went alright there, nothing special. It was the second week of school and I still didn’t have much friends…..everyone left class and headed to the Great Hall.
I sat down gloomily in my usual seat, far from everyone else, but near the fireplace…a couple Slytherins tossed food at me using Wingardium Leviosa….but I don’t care anymore..
 
As I munched down my delicious, tasty food, I felt someone staring at me…….i looked up and looked around…no one was. I sighed and went back to eating but I had that tense feeling again….I looked up at the table where all the professors sat and there he was…staring at me again with his hands folded…
 

I got up from my table….and started running when I heard footsteps rushing after me.
 

 
I hope you guys like it and please tell me what you think!!

Rest in peace to my Aunt Darlene. She has fought with leukemia for over four to five months. Then, struggled with cancer in her bones and her body.
Although, most of the times I visited you in Hawaii, I never got to see you because you were struggling to feel better. I love you so so so much and you were such an amazing person!! I'm real glad we had one last conversation before you died..the last words you said to me..i will never forget. I even remembere you told me, as long as there's a rainbow wherever I am in Hawaii, you will always be there. I'm so devastated that you had to go, but I'm relieved that you're out of sufferings. You mean the world to me..may you rest in peace in Heaven by the great Oahu ocean. I love you forever and always.

Age: 16
What you are: wizard
Type: Half-Blood
Small bio: Parents died at an early age, only family left are her grandparents
Where you live: Hogwarts


it all started with me being alive and taken away from my real parents
i never knew much about them but what i do know is theyre dead
yeah....i said it dead
it makes me frustrated the fact i never knew them and it leaves this tormenting pain in my heart whenever i think about it...
but enough of that..

a little bit about myself is i was born in ireland
my dad was a terrific man..one of the three siblings in his family
he had an older sister and a younger brother
they werent muggles they were halfblood….

long ago..my ancestors were somehow wizards..it started off with my greatest ancestor..whom was named Elenor McGraw. She was tall, thin, has bright crystal blue eyes that make you wonder…
She was good friends with the dark lord also known as tom riddle before he became powerful.
Then….they fell in love

She craved for love and wanted it desperately
But...tom marvolo riddle broke her heart
She would moan and cry and try to commit suicide..
but one day...
he came back...
he decided that they should mate..see the great powers of evil and great bravery/courtesy collide and create a new kind….
then he left her..chose great power over love..
she died from labor...lost her magic anyhow because of him
and so came my second ancestor...Grindelwald

 
~~~~~~~~~~~

Grindelwald..later known as a thief in dark times..

 
but ..anyways..my dad grew up as a wizard...greatest one in the family
it was time for him to depart his parents, and head to Hogwarts
He missed them terribly but his younger brother was too young to go yet so his older sister and him went alone.

 
As he grew older, he became used to the magic, wonderful home of Hogwarts..and went to Diagon Alley one day…
He went to Flourish and Blotts...of course, he was a total nerd and into books full of spells and mythology creatures oh my!
He walked in, inhaled the fresh smell of books and went to his favorite section in the back…he found this one book, that seemed pretty rare….it had an old feel to it…and it was the brightest book out of all the other books in the shelf..he grabbed it quickly and dug his nose and read a couple pages…

Suddenly this girl with long red hair was running and bumped into him. She had a pile of books in her hands.

 

 
“Oh my goodness!!! I’m so sorry!! Here let me help you!!!”

The girl started picking the book up that he was reading and handed it to him and my dad helped her grab the books that she dropped. He examined the titles and they all seemed pretty brill to read.
They both handed back their books and when she touched his hands, he felt this magic, as if it was a little shock or something..he looked at her closely and saw she had crystal blues eyes that you could gaze at forever and become lost in it…he stammered..

 

“Uh…do you want to look at books together? We can have some butterbeer or something…”

 
“Sure!! Why yes of course!! I’d love to!!”

“My name is Sarah” she said..

 
“Carl,” he replied…they both shook hands firmly and walked out to grab some butterbeer.

After that, they both went back to Flourish and Blotts to continue reading some books they both had. They both had one thing in common, reading. Carl and Sarah shared great interest in books especially the same genre..they both examined more books full of great spells and history..and thats how my parents met

 
However.. when they got married..they died..
its so saddening because it was after they both said, “ I do.”
The dark lord apparated to the wedding and killed them like that...within an instant
However..i was alive though at the time
They had me before they got married..if that makes sense..
so i was the flower girl!!!
i didnt know much about the dark lord at the time though. But after he killed my parents, suddenly, he saw me and i saw him
we both..connected......

 
he looked deeply into my crystal, bright blue eyes..it made him wonder why they looked so familiar…so beautiful all at once…When just then…he started receiving vivid flashbacks of Eleanor..his lover...
i had her bright crystal blue eyes which reminded him of his lost love.....He stared at me for quite awhile..i didn’t say anything but a clear teardrop was falling from my right eye down to my cheeks, down on my beautiful dainty, white dress…..I don’t remember what happened after that though…but until then..i realized Voldemort is my great-great-great-great grandfather……..

 

 

 

I hope you guys like it!! I'll create chapter two soon and please tell some of your friends about this story as well!!! (Also couldn't really think of a title..so if u have any ideas please comment) Thanks!!

Tale as old as time
True as it can be
Barely even friends
Then somebody bends
Unexpectedly

Just a little change
Small, to say the least
Both a little scared
Neither one prepared
Beauty and the Beast

Ever just the same
Ever a surprise
Ever as before
Ever just as sure
As the sun will rise

Tale as old as time
Tune as old as song
Bittersweet and strange
Finding you can change
Learning you were wrong

Certain as the sun
Rising in the east
Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the beast.

All i have to say is, i miss harry potter..:(
it was my childhood and i loved it and its still my favorite movie of all time. I also want to say that Emma Watson is indeed a wonderful actress. I suport her for everything she does and I hope you do too.They start out with something individual about them but it gets lost.But i have to say its not like that with Emma or Daniel or Ruper. People will always remember them as the golden trio but they will always be Daniel and Rupert and Emma. Its been so amazing seeing them grow overtime in each movie. Thats what i love about Harry Potter. You see the growth in their character and how they have changed. Plus, all the magic as well. It makes you really believe there is such thing. Long live Harry Potter forever and always

Hello my dear lovelies,its been awhile since I've been on here and I felt the need to create a cropped set cuz its bee FOREVER!! but,recently I've been in my school's drumlnie, and its rough. Its like boot camp, and thers fifty people in the drumline, most of them guys, and i have this huge bass drum on all day, in the hot blazing sun. (almost had a heat stroke and had to sit down) it was humilating. and then after that, we have to go down this hill with our drums..i fell down and sprained my ankle..my left leg was like bleeding all over the place and then the very first football game, i fell over the podium lying on the sidewalk before we went on the bus,my uniform pants wwere ruined...its been getting better but im still fighting it. im not givng up becuase i love doing what i do. So, to those who are stuggling out there,keep fighting it, and work towards it..it will get better. For now, I hope you enjoy my set :)
Here are the lyrics to the song:
Good morning, son.
I am a bird
Wearing a brown polyester shirt
You want a coke?
Maybe some fries?
The roast beef combo's only $9.95
It's okay, you don't have to pay
I've got all the change

Everybody knows
It hurts to grow up
And everybody does
It's so weird to be back here
Let me tell you what
The years go on and
We're still fighting it, we're still fighting it
And you're so much like me
I'm sorry

Good morning, son
In twenty years from now
Maybe we'll both sit down and have a few beers
And I can tell you 'bout today
And how I picked you up and everything changed
It was pain
Sunny days and rain
I knew you'd feel the same things

Everybody knows
It sucks to grow up
And everybody does
It's so weird to be back here.
Let me tell you what
The years go on and
We're still fighting it, we're still fighting it
You'll try and try and one day you'll fly
Away from me

Good morning, son
I am a bird

It was pain
Sunny days and rain
I knew you'd feel the same things

Everybody knows
Tt hurts to grow up
And everybody does
It's so weird to be back here.
Let me tell you what
The years go on and
We're still fighting it, we're still fighting it
Oh, we're still fighting it, we're still fighting it

And you're so much like me
I'm sorry
