What would your Erised turn to?

MOD EDIT : Please read the rules - one-liners are not permitted. In future, you're going to have to elaborate more in your posts.

Hm, let's think.
My Erised would probably show me myself, being a littler thinner (it's a girl thing, I know *lol*). My daughter would of course with me - she'd look as she always does, because she is perfect. smile.gif
I'd be done with university... hm, and there'd probably be a bunch of children I didnt have yet. *lol* My husband would be there, of course.
And I'd just be happy with my life - whichever way it led me.

Actually I'm pretty much satisfied with the life I have now, so I can't really tell anything interesting.
What would your Erised look like?

You know this would be a great quiz.... Okay, mine would be getting into Princeton when I got older, with a full scholarship, my dog and cat and family, and then going to Harvard law school. Which is alot like what I want to happen.
corijp
What would I see if I looked into the mirror of Erised...hmmm... that's a good question. I would see my daughter living a healthy, happy life in a world with out war or terrorism. I think I would also see my wallet a little fatter (to be without any financial difficulties through out my life). I think that's about it.
Krieltje
I would see myself graduated in psychologie and my friends and family surrounding me. I look healthy and happy and I would be a little bit taller than I am right now. My life is pretty good as it is, I guess. Well just let me add that I want to see myself with a note which shows that I've won a million dollars, no wait ...make it euros tongue.gif
Caitlin in Australia
my erised would probably turn into me with my true love maybe a child. A record deal and a platnum album. I love singing. tongue.gif I would also have a degree in something andn the best friends in the world. Also have no finacial problems and a happy life. Even if this all does come true it won't be for a long time since I am only 12.
phantom13girl
i would see myself with the boy that i love named jodi he works at the grocery store that i go to
keepstar1331
what a cool question! hmm...my Erised

Probably me with my own tv show on the Discovery Chanel, sailing around the world on a large scientific research ship, and working with sharks to help find cures for degenerative diseases. Also many tan musceled crew men doing my bidding *drool* wink.gif
razzberry2
I would see myself 10 years younger and living in the Harry Potter world as a witch! I would of course either go to Hogwarts or teach there, either way is fine with me, and The Dark Lord would be gone forever, having been dealt with by Harry who happily lives on to a ripe old age!

That's what I'd see... today atleast rolleyes.gif
Dave602
I think i would see myself, happy in work, surrounded by my family with no health worries and with no money worries either.
cool question(first post ever)
Auror37
I actually don't know what I would see. I really want to be a video game designer. But I don't think it would turn into that.. I have really always wanted to play in the NFL or the NBA, so maybe I would see myself winning the Super Bowl. I would also like to date someone like Jessica Alba. laugh.gif
Pixymajik
I was having this discussion with a friend of mine the other day, when I was telling her about this thread. She asked me what I'd put and I told her I that I hadn't answered yet. The number of times I've started writing a response based on what I'd think would be my desire and then deleted it because I thought, no- I'd want XX as well. or I'd ask myself the question as to how that would make me a better person?

I think if I answered with anything, there's always something else that I'd want on top of that. There's a lot of things that I want in my life, for my future and that sort of thing, but I also believe that they will come in time. Or I'd imagine that I'd see things- like being surrounded by friends- that I already have.

So, given the current state of my life, I think I can honestly say that I'd see me exactly as I am living the life that I'm leading. I'm pretty happy with who I am and what I have.


(Then again for my birthday, I always tell people that I want Elijah Wood in a big red box....)
Lithium
Haha hmm I think mine would be me standing in this totally wicked dress (no not some pretty designer one but black, corset, the whole deal) and holding an oscar in my hand rolleyes.gif and on my other side would be my sweetheart and he would be a famous scriptwriter just like he's trying to be...
Ygraine
Oooh, Good question.

Mine would probably be me just loving myself for who i am.

Because i don't at the moment and never have sad.gif.

Gooey i know *sigh*
LittlePixie
my erised would show my mother standing by me, and i'm holding a baby.
the reason my mother would be there is that she died about 2 1/2 years ago and i still really miss her. i'd be holding a baby cause i know that i really want one sometime.
HP number one Fan
In the mirror I would see me standing with a normal happy life true friends sucessful actress or writer and with Dan Radcliffe or Robert Pattison by my side lol tehehehe biggrin.gif
razzberry2
Wow blink.gif everybody in here is so practical about their desires ... not me rolleyes.gif I have a different answer today from my last effort. Now if I looked into the mirror I would see myself lying on a fifty foot rental yaght (I dont want to own it, too much looking after) with a glass of Bolli in one hand and my favourite man in the other *lol*. There would be a perfectly cloudless blue sky and no wind. My wet snorkling gear would be lying on the deck drying out after having just arrived back from a swim around the coral bombies that make up the Great Barrier Reef. The yaght would be cruising back to the jetty at Port Douglas where we would then disembark and head back to our amazing room at the Sheritan Mirage Resort *sigh* I could go on and on, but you get the idea. tongue.gif
leia
I think that the mirror would show me kissing with a classmate that I have a crush on for a year now. wub.gif
goginnygrlpower
If I looked in the mirrior, I would see myself meeting JK rowling! Kind of obvious, but it is a lifelong dream! I would be so awesome to meet her!
Hallia
Well, I really don't know. Maybe it would be me with my degree finished, having a place of my own to work in and still having the basics in my life: track & field, my family, my boyfriend, my friends... Pretty basic stuff
TheatreNerd0048
my erised would be me in Juliard on an acting scholarship. i would be the happiest person in the world, and i would be working with the best actors in the country {my idols}. my blonde hair would be back {it's been fading to brunette for years}. My husband {who also attends Juliard} will be by my side. there's a beautiful sunset behind us, and the temperature is not too hot, and not too cold, with a soft breeze blowing our hair just perfect. and last, i'm the happiest person on the earth.
OwnerOfSouls
my erised would be a plate of 99c bagels. I mean, COME ON. WHERE CAN YOU GET A BAGEL FOR 99 CENTS?

Nowhere.

If I looked into the mirror of Erised I would probably see myself going out with the guy I like and we would both be happy. If i didn't see that I would probably see myself in about 5-6 years from now, out of college, living on my own, married, and having a good job.
HP number one Fan
Come to think of it my Erised would show world peace and me getting back together with my ex and ending up marrying him. THouhg Dan Radcliffe would be nice too. Oh and I would love to snog Snape just to see if he was good at it lol tongue.gif
Hermione 14
I think that my erised would turn into basically me being happy. What I really want to do is become a judge, so Id probably be in my gown judges outfit/onsomble, and I would have all of my family around me smile.gif
pigwidigon
my erised would trun into myself standing next to my fiancee 10 years from now with a plethora of beautiful children..all happy and healthy..in front of our nice little house with a picket fence..that would be my perfect life

I mean of course I would love to see myself with my happy little family but they are all in Hogwarts uniforms...That would be the best erised ever if only *goes off to daydream* rolleyes.gif
Allie
Now that's a rather personal question, isn't it? laugh.gif I don't know... I don't think there's anything that I want really, really badly. My desires are pretty shallow -- they vary with my mood. I wouldn't say no to a college acceptance letter at the moment... but on the other hand, a normally functioning computer mouse isn't sounding that bad either... or a power failure in the middle of my fifth period class, or for some really deep meaning to come literally leaping out of Beowulf. You name it! Yeah, I'm pretty happy with my life right now... tongue.gif

That is what I'd say my desires would be...sort of. I would see my husband and me with 2-4 kids, all happy and healthy.

Though I am not positive on that, deep down in the back on my mind I may have different desires such as...getting out of Tennessee blink.gif .
TheBalrog86
I'm pretty sure mine would probably be a collage of different places all over the world. Since what I desire the most is to travel, seek adventures and just see the world I mean "its a big world out there" - Count Oleff (Lemony Snicket).

It would probably show also the love of my life...haven't found one yet but oh well!
HaRRYPoTTeR FReaK
My Erised would probably be me at Hogwarts, sitting in the Gryffindor common room, chatting with Harry Potter while we procrastinate from doing out DADA homework... laugh.gif
ILoveRonWeasley
my erised would be me and my granny standing together she died in 2004 of lung cancer..
kipsy
Hey again, (L)ILoveRonWeasley(L)!

Again, quick note on one-liners:

Please, please try to elaborate a bit more on what you're saying. It may seem hard, but in the long run it really isn't. There are so many one-liners that the mods and Prefects have to track down, so it'd really make our lives easier if you could just expand a tiny bit on what you're say. wink.gif

The forum rules, and newbie central can be accessed through my sig. PM me for questions.

Happy Trails!! tongue.gif

(And sorry about your grandmother!!)
ILoveRonWeasley
ty and ill right more one liners..K
kipsy
No, you misunderstood!! What I meant was, DON'T write one liners!!! ACK. But even if you were saying you were going to try not to, that last post was a one-liner, which negates the trying. But hopefully next post you'll expand a bit. smile.gif

But anyway, also try to stray away from netspeak. (Ty, k, etc) It's easier for people who don't know English that well to read the posts, and it can get annoying for the other members. Also, it make you seems more intelligent when arguing an opinion. wink.gif

I've already told you to check the forum rules a couple of times, along with newbies central, so I don't think I need to remind you that.

Happy Trails! tongue.gif
Waddiwassi
oooh, my deepest desire? laugh.gif It would definitly be directing the 7th HP movie, although it wouldn't be too bad to just see myself as a sucessful filmmaker, hp movies or not. biggrin.gif
gemini_4691
Me with a real Louis Vuitton handbag!
Lee
the Bee Gees all alive and well and performing together.
I would probably see all of my family dancing behind them
Mayi
hmm...mine would be going to UK and meet everyone from the HP movies... I live in Malaysia and it's a long way to UK. I really really want to meet them all...I want to meet JKR too, and talk to her about the HP series...
just me
My Erised would be a world where there was no suffering, no violence or abuse, no human trading, no animal abuse or anything!!! I'm so sick of it! mad.gif There are so many terrible things happening around the world, even this very minute! So, yeah, my Erised would be a world of happiness and freedom! rolleyes.gif
I would also like to have a boyfriend tongue.gif I've been longing for one since my date of birth!!
Chelsey_princess
Mine Erised would turn to be something like....
Dan has lead me to the altar,he has consented and mow its my turn,i do it slowly,blushing.....

padfootchick14
Humm...curious, curious...
I'd see myself carrying a wand, because I want to be a witch, of course. I'd be talking to my good friend Luke, because he died from cancer last year, when he was only 10. *sniff* sad.gif I miss you, Luke! *tear tear* And I'd be snogging Rupert Grint. rolleyes.gif But I think that's it, because right now, I am a very very happy and lucky individual...lots of friends...a great boy...smarts...musical and dramatic talent...a good family...the best little brother ever...Harry Potter books...you get the picture.
mjane95
My Erised would show me having a boyfriend and a happy, calm, peaceful world rolleyes.gif
That would be the best
Potter_Fan_303
I dont know what mine would turn into mabey me standing with the boy i like or something like that
voldys_8th_horcrux
My Erised thingy would be me getting into Harvard with my dog and my monkey(wish i had one). I would be a rich lawyer. and I would be in the Wizarding World. Even if Voldy kills Harry. Because we'll just make a fake prophecy and make Voldemort kill himself. hehe

MOD EDIT : Hi and welcome to the forums!! Please read the rules - the use of personal abbreviations are not allowed in the forums. "w/" should have been "with" which I've now edited.
Chacho
this is a nice question, very tricky to answer.

i would probably see myself, some years from now, with a great family. my wife, son, daughter, dog. being able to see that I succeded in life and have a perfect, happy life.
james pickles
well of course nobody actually knows what their deepest most desperate desire is really. but i hope that i would see myself taking all the evil out of the world and having nothing but good in it. i would also like to see myself as a wizard
Meggie
Wow, this is actually probably the hardest question I've ever tried to answer. Obviously I have certain shallow desires, just like everyone else, and even other not so shallow desires such as to be successful in my life. None of these things seems like the deepest desire of my heart right now, though, because I'm actually very content with my life. What I want most... and really what everyone wants most... is happiness, and I have that. So at the moment I'm going to say I would see me not pushing away the people I think care too much about me (my biggest flaw, right there). But that could change, or even be totally wrong as it is.
Elaine
Well right now...I REALLY REALLY have a bad crush on this guy in my class...and I'd really love to say hisname..but lolz...donno if he his friends still visit Veritaserum...so my Mirror of Erised would turn to be me with Daniel...secretly he has a major crush on me...and I know that but I just play along...but really everything I wanted
-There would be NO animal abuse! mad.gif
-Daniel and I would be going out! wub.gif
-Rupert and Emma would be my best friends wink.gif
-I'd be a accomplished, recognised and famous writer! sleep.gif
-And I'd have free Pizza Hut pizzas everyday..yummm... tongue.gif


Gee, getting over with that I REALLY do wish there was a Mirror of Erised...haaaaahh! ph34r.gif
