Hi everyone. My name is Sam. I've been here for a while acctually, I just never really got around to joining. I joined about two months ago, but I've been coming here for about a year. I'm 15, and I'm a sophomore in high school, I'm a youngin. =] Most people in my grade are older, much older. *sigh* O well.
I've lived somewhat of an interesting life acctually. I was born in California, but when I was very young (3-4 ish) i moved to Okinawa Japan, and I lived there for 6 years. I moved back to California when I was 10, and about a year and a half ago, I moved to Washington.
I've traveled to 4 places in China. Hong Kong, X'ian (Shi-an), Shanghai, and Beijing.
I have also been to Brisbane, Australia. I have a lot of the Asian culture in me, even though I am the farthest thing from Asian imaginable. =]
Well I'm not sure what else to say, so I will leave it here. I suppose if anyone wants to know more, they can ask me. smile.gif

well, Ive been here for a few months, but am really busy with schoolwork. I am 16 and live in Washington. I was first introduced to HP by my friends at school and had to beg my parents to let me read them. I read all of them (1-6) in two days during this time of year last year! I love them soo much that I was looking for something on line and stumbled across this web-site. I am so glad I did! As for my interests, I love sports, especially soccer and enjoy hanging out with my friends and going to movies. I love to read Science Fiction books among them are the Eragon and Eldest books. I have no comment on that movie only that it was out of focus from the book. My favorite book of HP is the third one. Um.. that's all I have to say for now! biggrin.gif

Hey Sam! Is that a nickname, or your full name? So you live in Washington? I've been there - my favourite place of the whole trip my family took to America.

Really? That is so cool! I am quite similar, but different countries. I lived in Australia (my home country) until I was two to three years old, and then I moved to Dubai, Saudi Arabia, until I was five to six years old. I then went to live in Prague, Czech Repbulic for a year, until I was six to seven years old, then I came back to Australia and I am still there now! I have to say, living in different countries really is an experience.

Welcome!

Hey kelli! Welcome to Veritaserum! You're the same age as one of my brothers, and you live in the same city as Sam! Connections *points back and forth between Phoebe and kelli, and kelli and Sam*!

I love sport, but really it's 'especially Basketball and Netball', tongue.gif . I like going to movies and hanging out with friends too! Science Fiction books are awesome.

Wow! Someone who finally shares my opinion on the Goblet of Fire movie! I thought it strayed away from the book too much, I had to explain the whole thing to my parents after we came out of the cinema. You have to have read the books to understand it, which isn't right. My favourite Harry Potter movie is the third one by far, biggrin.gif .

Hey Stefany, or Fany, if you will, tongue.gif . Where did you used to live when you were in the United States? And don't worry, we're not fussed about grammar or spelling, tongue.gif . Haha, no worries, age doesn't really matter on the Veritaserum forums! wink.gif

HAHA!!! I felt exactly the same as well! Then I stumbled across Veritaserum and I realised that I wasn't the only Harry Potter obsesser, Daniel Radcliffe lover, and just overall weird person! biggrin.gif

Anyway, welcome to all, and I hope you have a great time on Veritaserum!

hi! i'm from washington too. i was just re-reading the books and i suddenly felt that familiar hunger after i finish reading them, so i somehow stumbled across veritaserum and am officially addicted!
HarryGinnyJamesLily
Hey sadie_rose!!! I was relatively the same, I read the books, got into Harry Potter once more, and if you add boredom to that... well, let's just say I'm thankful for the day I joined (I actually joined earlier, but if you ask any moderator, they'll tell you they wiped their members if they were inactive, aka, me tongue.gif ). I am now addictied + obsessed! WOO! biggrin.gif

Welcome!

Yeah, Nixe, there are specific common rooms for every house. They are in the Lounge section of the forums. I see you're already sorted, so I won't bother explaining that.

Have a fun time on Veritaserum!

My brother turned 18 in March of 2006! (Happy New Year everyone!) I'm 13, just to let you know, tongue.gif . I got into Harry Potter when I was in year four (10 years old). Canada! I have always wanted to visit there! I also like their accent, tongue.gif . Do you have one? What's it like there? Daniel! ohmy.gif Are you in ANY, ANY relation to Daniel Radcliffe (LOL!)?! I NEED TO KNOW! tongue.gif

Yeah, I love Veritaserum too. Have fun exploring!

Angela_Cro
Well, hi there!!
First of all, happy New year!!
So...I'm Angela, 16 years old and I come from Croatia- a small country in the south of Europe.
I've been an HP fan for maybe, 5 years...don't know exactly. I joined this site today but I'm also a member of some other HP sites. My favourite HPbook is 6th one-HPHBP.
I enjoy reading a lot...I also like music, English and shooting. smile.gif)
I adore travelling and love meeting new people....
wink.gif
Seni
Croatia?Me too...
Well, I hope you stick around...the last one from Croatia didn't...
Too bad...well...welcome!

This is going to be a one liner, right?
Well, then, Angela, witch city are you from?
gorgeous_granger
heya Angela_cro! Whats croatia like I've heard of it, it seems quite nice. Welcome anyway.

I have an 18 year old brother too- he's nearly 19 though!

Happy new year everyone. Hope you all had a good time on new years eve whenever yours was! I did i was drinking champagne hehe!! I'm not sure if i'd be classed asa newbie anymore, I joine last month?? ah well.

Sara_Bellatrix_Lestrange
Hey there! magic.gif

My name's Sara and I was born in El Salvador but moved to Toronto when I was about 2 1/2 and I've been here ever since! I haven't even left the province lol. ermm.gif I joined this website in early December, but didn't notice tihs thread until today. eep. Every year for my birthday I ask for the same things:

- fantasy books
- Harry Potter memorabilia (but I never get anything, I end up buying it all myself)
- Sailor Moon stuff -> my other addiction

If Hogwarts was a real school I would have skipped the Ontario government "Ministry Approved" curriculum for something more fun... I really want to blow things up in Charms. sad.gif

I have a little boy that just turned seven months yesterday, who I'm training to become the youngest Potter Whiz-Kid. Just last night I told my fiance, Scott, that our engagement will be cancelled unless he reads all the Harry Potter books (including Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, and Quidditch Through the Ages), so he readily agreed to do it. He knows I was dead serious. What he doesn't know is that I will write a test for him to test just how much attention he paid to the books. Deathly Hallows FINAL EXAM will have to wait until I've read it eight times though lol.

I love watching Passions.

I say the most random things at the most inconvenient times.

I STILL believe in Santa, even though I'm turning 21 this November (such a long wait until I get presents). santa.gif

Fairies and elves are cool. I heart Dobby and Kreacher.

My best friends all think I'm nuts for being as obsessed with Harry Potter as I am. As a result, I am often alienated from conversations about whatever's "hot" on Much Music (our dumb music channel) or whatever else the media has its eye on. I'd much rather read. thumbsup.gif

I need coffee right now.

One day, I will marry Lord Voldemort and everyone on this website will be invited to attend if they will be able to make it. grouphug.gif

Haha, hey! Happy New Year to you too! You're the same age as my OTHER brother (Toby)! Wow, many people share the ages of my siblings, LOL! Croatia is awesome!

Anyway, I've been a Harry Potter fan for... *counts* 3 years! Woo! The 6th book is also my favourite smile.gif . I love reading, and music (though I prefer to listen, not to play) and English is awesome, smile.gif . What do you mean by "shooting"? I like travelling too! And meeting new people is always fun, biggrin.gif .

Welcome, and have a great time on Veritaserum!

Yeah, same, my brother is 19 in March of this year (2007).

I didn't have any champagne or anything, but whatever, it was an okay night (my brothers were out so I had to stay at home with my parents, and two of their friends (married)).

Haha, don't worry, I plan to stay in this thread for a long time - great conversation!

Haha, hey Sara! No worries about the noticing thread thing, I'm sure many others were in the same situation at some point, XD .

Haha, I don't ask for Harry Potter memorabila for Christmas/my brithday, but when my mum buys stuff for me on these occasions, she tends to encorporate Harry Potter into them somewhow. I don't really care, I mean, it's Harry Potter! biggrin.gif

"I really want to blow things up in Charms." - I laughed SO much when I read this. I would love to blow things up too, but maybe inconspicuously (sp?), tongue.gif .

Lol, lol, and LOL! Ahh, that's funny. I can't believe you threatened to cancel the engagement! I have to say, that also made me laugh, nice one wink.gif . And exams? LOL! I do that to my friends, and I normally ask really complicated and detailed questions, and they can't go to class until they answer. So the answer usually turns out something like this... "For God's sake, I don't know! I need to get to class!" XD I love tormenting them.

Passions?! I think that's a show I used to watch, if we're talking about the same thing that is. Does it have the characters Tabitha, Timmy (little doll thing, really WEIRD) and Charity, or whatever? If it does, I don't watch it anymore, but I used to watch it 'cause I found it funny (even though it wasn't a comedy, wink.gif ).

I say random things as well, though normally in awkward silences rather than at inconvenient times.

Santa is so awesome! I refuse to believe he is not real! If my brothers say 'Phoebe, get over it.' I normally say something like 'But I want to believe!' .

Haha, I'm not so big on the fairies, but I love elves - Dobby is the bomb, and Kreacher is just misunderstood, tongue.gif .

Haha, my friends/best friends do the same, though the talk is not about music channels, more about how 'hot' Johnny Depp is... they don't seem to realise he is... what? Like... 44 years old?!

Eugh, I hate coffee, tongue.gif .

If you marry Lord Voldemort, doesn't that mean you will have two husbands... ? *raises one eyebrow* ... Invite me anyway! XD

Anyway, it seems I've replied to all posts since my last. I hope you all had a great year last year, and let's hope this one's gonna be even better!

Before I go, does anybody watch the Ashes?

Oh yeah...LOL Passions..That's like the fist soap I ever watched...I was...8?9?...something like that...I remember that at the end of a season something tense happened, and they never gave the next season..

QUOTE
Croatia is awesome!


I agree
gorgeous_granger
ok...some of you asked what an eisteddfod is. I have already explained somewhere but i'll explain again. The eisteddfod is a welsh festival. You have singers,dancers, poets actors and stuff like that. Its for all ages I think but it's mainly youths that go. there are different types of eisteddfods but the international one is held in llangollen (a place in north wales) every year. I think that just about sums it up.

Another thing ok i might be interesting some times but hardly ever...I'm just really random!!

Haha! I remember it so clearly, it was also the first soap I watched as well! I was about the same age... watched it when I was in year 2 and year 3 (8 and 9 years old). Yeah, I stopped watching it when I realised it was a waste of my time, haha, and also, they had all these random plot lines going. You know the guy who plays John Tucker in John Tucker Must Die? Well, he played the guy in love with Charity, who's name I've forgotten, tongue.gif .

Haha, thanks gorgeous_granger, I now know what Eisteddfod is... I had heard of it, but no one explained, tongue.gif .

Haha, I'm sure we're all random. By the way, I wanted to ask everyone who posts on this thread; would I be able to see a Thestral if I had a twin, but it died in my mum's uterus? I am really curious!

Hey Em (I didn't know that was your name, haha)!

I'm not sure whether I'd be able to see Thestrals - it would be great though; not suffering the trauma of losing someone and being able to see a Thestral!

Yeah, I live in Sydney, Australia. I haven't heard much about it (Eisteddfod) but I've heard the word before, haha, tongue.gif .

This reply is LONG overdue, but here it is lol. wacko.gif

For starters, yes, Passions is that show with Tabitha and Endora, but no Timmy. He died lol. Actually I didn't start watching that show until last April when I went on maternity leave lol. According to my sister the plotlines are essentially the same as they always were. Theresa's engaged to a man named Jared, and Fancy got assaulted twice - she's now in love with Luis who is madly in love with her back! Sheridan's married to a man named Chris, Marty died as did Beth and Alistair (so they want us to believe, I heart Alistair), but she's experiencing a nervous break down because she wants Luis back. That's the short of it...

About the tests, I have already told Scott what is expected of him. I also described in excruciating details that he has to get either an Oustanding or an Exceeds Expectations for me to be convinced that he's trying hard to become assimilated into my HP environment. For that, I would LOVE it if some of you help me think of really hard questions to include. I'm doing all of the standard exam type questions - multiple choice, true and false, essay questions, regular answers, mix and match, etc. The "hardest question" I wrote so far asks him to list in order what obstacles the Trio have to pass and what they do to overcome the obstacles in order to get to the Philospher's Stone - I'm still on the first book. sad.gif However if any of you are up for it, then I would love to hear your suggestions, either on this thread or in a PM or whatever else lol.

This one is for gorgeous_granger:

How do you pronounce "eisteddfods"? I would really appreciate it if you spell it out phoenetically because I'm trying to get my tongue around it and I end up getting tongue tied. shy.gif I even tried to look up Welsh pronounciations in some of my King Arthur books, but I failed repeatedly. ermm.gif I don't want to sound ignorant, seeing as Toronto is a major multicultural city, but we don't exactly have many (if any??) cultural festivals that don't fall into the Hispanic, Greek, Italian, Canadian (Canada Day), Portuguese and Chinese already. sad.gif

This one is for HarryGinnyJamesLily (hope I got it right):

I also like their accent

I'm from Canada as well, and I can't think of us Canadians or our American neighbours (except for the Southerners) as having accents so it was so strange for me to read that lol. But I noticed you're from Australia... THERE'S an accent lol. smile.gif I've always wanted to go there, but I don't know if I'll be able to bear the heat. I love winter time. smile.gif

Jewels ooh you were born on halloween how cool!!

Sara_Bellatrix_Lestrange ok this is kinda tricky. It is quite hard to pronounce.
Ok as if you were saying A in the alphabet.
* thinking how to make a dd sound* hmm... unsure.gif
Ok well say it as if your saying S but you've got a lisp so it comes out either a th ot a dd.
So when you see DD it souns like a lispy S.
fod is just like an english equivelant to vod.

A-stedd-vod

That's how you say eisteddfod. Don't worry loads of people get tongue tied if your speaking welsh and you don't really know the language. Have any of you heard the longest welsh word?? its funny i would type it but its just lloks like mumble. I'll put little hyphons where it sounds like a new word.
Llanfair-pwll-gwyngyll-gogerwch-wyndrobwll-llant-y-silio-go-go-goch.
Have any of you heard it? If you try saying it you probably will get tongue tied tongue.gif happy.gif
Does that solve your question if not just ask again!!

Hey Shereene! I also think Veritaserum is better than Muggle.Net, but that's just my opinion, tongue.gif . You live in India? I have a friend from India! She doesn't have an accent... shame, I think Indian accents are cute! Haha, think me crazy, but it's true! I'm sure, somewhere, deep down, everyone thinks Indian accents are cute, 'cause I sure do! tongue.gif .

I studied the Florida Everglades for Geography, :S . I hate Geography with a passion!

So you're in... Year 6? Gonna turn 12 this year? That's cool, I remember the days when I was in Year 6... good times, good times, tongue.gif . I'm going into Year 8 this year, ohmy.gif ! Second year of highschool! Haha, tongue.gif .

Well, welcome Shereene!

I have a golden retriever named zoey and i love her soooo much. i also have a lab/chow mix named shadow and she is really sweet. mini schauzer's are really cute.

funny how your mom likes aragorn. my mom likes someone but i cant recall who.

lastly i joined about months ago, but i have visited the site for about a year just for news.


Aww, cute doggies! And yes, Mini Schnauzers are awesome, with their beard, and eyebrows, XD .

Yeah, my mum is OBSESSED with Aragorn. Kinda like how I am obsessed with Harry Potter. It's good though, 'cause if she complains about how I am obsessed, I can just say "Well, you like Viggo Mortensen! HAH!" - Viggo Mortensen plays Aragorn.

Yeah, that was the same for me. I went to it for news, then I signed up as I Love Dan Radcliffe, but my account got wiped because of inactiveness, tongue.gif . So I re-created, new name and all.

Anyway, how close is the 5th movie?! I'm really EXCITED!!!

Well, welcome Lauran!

Timmy DIED?!?!?! ohmy.gif He was so freaky though! He made me laugh unintentionally, XD . Of all the peeps you mentioned, I only remember Sheridan - isn't she the crippled one in a wheelchair or something?! Who was once married to Julian?! Haha, I haven't watched that show in AGES! I didn't even know it was still showing!

Well, I quizzed one of my friends on MSN the other day about Harry Potter, because she quizzed me on Aladdin (she loves that show, LOL!), and one of my questions was 'Who was present when the Unbreakable Vow was made in Chapter Two of the Half-Blood Prince, including the participants?' - it was a multiple choice question. There's an even harder one like 'What animal does Bellatrix kill in Chapter Two of the Half-Blood Prince?' - it's a fox, by the way, tongue.gif . Little small details like that... things that you wouldn't really pay attention to unless you were a Harry Potter fanatic, like us peeps! XD

I hope that helps... I'll try to think of more the next time I post on this forum, smile.gif .

I know this was meant for gorgeous_granger, but I just had to put in my own two cents, tongue.gif . Ok, well, I was told it was pronounced Es-stedd-fud ... just what I was told! Perhaps it's just how us Aussies pronounce it, which brings me to my next point...

Before I start, I don't mean to be offensive to anyone, I just thought I would state my observations, alright? Ok, cool smile.gif

Haha, Americans DEFINITELY have accents; oh my God, I can't believe you don't realise it! The Canadian accent is somewhat similar, but softer, and easier on the ears to us 'foreigners', tongue.gif . Yeah, umm, I think you'll find that people in western New South Wales (the state I live in) speak with an accent. You will also find that everyone (in Australia) except northern, eastern, some of southern, and inner Sydney has an Australian accent. Haha, tongue.gif . I'm in the east, so I'm fairly well-spoken; more so than my friends because I have lived away from Australia for four years, where they speak in English accents. So yeah, you shouldn't assume that all Australians have accents, because I don't, tongue.gif .

HarryGinnyJamesLily ooh i love indian accents too! they're so cute.I hate geography too. i told my geography teacher if i wanted to look at a map and go somewhere i'd use my sat-nav and if i wanted to know the weather i'd listen to the weather man in the morning. Luckily he took it as a joke!

Isn't jesse matcalfe coming back into desperate housewives? The new series has begun yey!! biggrin.gif

I think it could have something to do with accents on the way you pronounce it. I said it the welsh way of pronouncing it. There is an english way too.

Americans and caniadians have accents well ive noticed them anyway.

Yes it is possible it the name of a train station i think. Whats funnier is it's only one word( no hyphons at all). I can say it!! It isnt that hard to pronounce if you know the welsh alphabet. It's rather easy if your welsh too although no one i know can say it.

anywayz thats all for now
