Author has written 5 stories for Harry Potter, Merlin, and Doctor Who. So I'm am a person in a country. This isn't very informative so I think I'll elaborate. Hi! My name is Windy Silvermist. Though not really. I made the name because A) Silver was my favorite color at the time B) I was also really obsessed with Tris, from Tamora Pierce's Circle of Magic series at the time, who is a weather mage. Anyway I'm 16 year old girl going into my Junior year (this fact stuns me and terrify's me. Chem and Pre-Calc *shudders *) at my fanc-I mean cheap private school (trust me we're about as cheap as private school's get), for hoity-toity Christians. So naturally I am a Christian, otherwise those Monday chapels would be super annoying. I mean they still kind of are, but that's because a worship team made of highschoolers with an auditorium full of highschoolers spells out REALLY AWKWARD worship session. And making the music louder does nothing to alleviate this. Just saying. Anyway my favorite hobbies are reading children/young-adult books (That is going to be so much more embarrassing when I'm older. I'm gonna look like such a creeper browsing through the children's section. Unless I actually mature enough to move on to adult novels...Maybe I can just pay a kid to come with so it looks like I'm getting it for them instead, nah I'm too cheap. Maybe I'll have a kid, if I'm 40 that could work. Though in reality it's far more expensive than just hiring a kid to play act...I'm thinking about this way too seriously.) As I said I enjoy reading books, writing crappy fanfiction (Examples below!), using my imagination via daydreams, singing and occasionally soccer. I really want to become magically fit one day so I don't start crying at the word Indian Run (I did actually cry during the practice when we were doing it once...in my defense I hadn't slept at all the night before). I am obviously not very mature for my age and tend to act like an idiot, crazy or both. Well...act is a bit lenient, I am a crazy idiot. Which is why I don't put much stalk in grades. Because according to my grades I'm smart, but my actions seem to indicate that my brain was swapped with a dodo bird at same point during my youth. Do ever wonder how we know Dodo birds are idiots? I mean they are extinct. That and most birds aren't too intelligent. X So it's time for FAVORITES!

Favorite Merlin Character: Merlin Favorite Psych Characer: Shawn Quotes I'm found of that can be found on my Facebook Page Provided you know my real name: "No book is really worth reading at the age of ten which is not equally – and often far more – worth reading at the age of fifty and beyond." "Eating and reading are two pleasures that combine admirably." "Now the trouble about trying to make yourself stupider than you really are is that you very often succeed." "You can make anything by writing." "There was a boy called Eustace Clarence Scrubb, and he almost deserved it." "It isn't Narnia, you know," sobbed Lucy. "It's you. We shan't meet you there. And how can we live, never meeting you?" "Miracles are a retelling in small letters of the very same story which is written across the whole world in letters too large for some of us to see." "A silly idea is current that good people do not know what temptation means. This is an obvious lie. Only those who try to resist temptation know how strong it is... A man who gives in to temptation after five minutes simply does not know what it would have been like an hour later. That is why bad people, in one sense, know very little about badness. They have lived a sheltered life by always giving in." "No one ever told me that grief felt so like fear." "All that we call human history--money, poverty, ambition, war, prostitution, classes, empires, slavery--[is] the long terrible story of man trying to find something other than God which will make him happy." -" "We meet no ordinary people in our lives." "God allows us to experience the low points of life in order to teach us lessons that we could learn in no other way." "I think that if God forgives us we must forgive ourselves. Otherwise, it is almost like setting up ourselves as a higher tribunal than Him." "God is no fonder of intellectual slackers than He is of any other slacker." "Write about what really interests you, whether it is real things or imaginary things, and nothing else." "But courage, child: we are all between the paws of the true Aslan." Do not cite the Deep Magic to me, Witch. I was there when it was written."-Aslan "Only a real risk tests the reality of a belief." "We forgive, we mortify our resentment; a week later some chain of thought carries us back to the original offence and we discover the old resentment blazing away as if nothing had been done about it at all. We need to forgive our brother seventy times seven not only for 490 offences but for one offence. " "If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything." "So many books, so little time." "Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another: "What! You too? I thought I was the only one." "Be yourself; everyone else is already taken." "I am so clever that sometimes I don't understand a single word of what I am saying." "To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all." "It is what you read when you don't have to that determines what you will be when you can't help it." "If one cannot enjoy reading a book over and over again, there is no use in reading it at all." "The pure and simple truth is rarely pure and never simple." "Saying 'I notice you're a nerd' is like saying, 'Hey, I notice that you'd rather be intelligent than be stupid, that you'd rather be thoughtful than be vapid, that you believe that there are things that matter more than the arrest record of Lindsay Lohan. Why is that?' In fact, it seems to me that most contemporary insults are pretty lame. Even 'lame' is kind of lame. Saying 'You're lame' is like saying 'You walk with a limp.' Yeah, whatever, so does 50 Cent, and he's done all right for himself." "Books are the ultimate Dumpees: put them down and they’ll wait for you forever; pay attention to them and they always love you back." "The venn diagram of boys who don’t like smart girls and boys you don’t wanna date is a circle." The job of reading is to use stories as a way into seeing other people as we see ourselves" “My thoughts are stars I cannot fathom into constellations.” Almost everyone is obsessed with leaving a mark on the world. Bequeathing a legacy. Outlasting death. We all want to be remembered. I do, too. That's what bothers me most, is being another unremembered casualty in the ancient and inglorious war against disease. I want to leave a mark. But Van Houten: The marks humans leave are too often scars. You build a hideous minimall or start a coup or try to become a rock star and you think "They'll remember me now," but (a) they don't remember you, and (b) all you leave behind are more scars. Your coup becomes a dictatorship. Your minimall becomes a lesion. Hazel is different. She walks lightly, old man. She walks lightly upon the earth . Hazel knows the truth: We're as likely to hurt the universe as we are to help it, and we're not likely to do either." People will say it's sad she leaves a lesser scar, that fewer remember her, that she was loved deeply but not widely. But it's not sad Van Houten. It'd triumphant. It's heroic. Isn't that the real heroism? Like the doctors say: First, do no harm. "With great power... comes great need to take a nap. Wake me up later." "Grover was sniffing the wind, looking nervous. He fished out his acorns and threw them into the sand, then played his pipes. They rearranged themselves in a pattern that made no sense to me, but Grover looked concerned. "Be careful of love. It'll twist your brain around and leave you thinking up is down and right is wrong." "In a way, it's nice to know that there are Greek gods out there, because you have somebody to blame when things go wrong. For instance, when you're walking away from a bus that's just been attacked by monster hags and blown up by lightning, and it's raining on top of everything else, most people might think that's just really bad luck; when you're a half-blood, you understand that some devine force is really trying to mess up your day." "Deadlines just aren't real to me until I'm staring one in the face." "Love conquers all," Aphrodite promised. "Look at Helen and Paris. Did they let anything come between them?" "Jason scratched his head. "You named him Festus? You know that in Latin, ‘festus’ means ‘happy’? You want us to ride off to save the world on Happy the Dragon?" "Can we just call them storm spirits?” Leo asked. “Venti makes them sound like evil espresso drinks." "Leo: Rainbows. Very macho. "I have lightning and wind powers," Jason reminded him. "Piper can turn beautiful and charm people into giving her BMWs. You're no more a freak than we are. And, hey, maybe you can fly, too. Like jump off a building and yell 'Flame on!'" "All right, cupcakes. You are about to see the Grand Canyon. Try not to break it. The skywalk can hold the weight of seventy jumbo jets, to you featherweights should be safe out there. If possible, try to avoid pushing each other over the edge, as that would cause me extra paperwork." A question that sometimes drives me hazy: am I or are the others crazy? An empty stomach is not a good political adviser. "If you want to know what a man's like, take a good look at how he treats his inferiors, not his equals." "It is our choices, Harry, that show us what we truly are, far more than our abilities." "It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live." "It takes much bravery to stand up to our enemies but we need as much bravery to stand up to our friends." "It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously that you might as well not have lived at all - in which case, you fail by default." "Of course it is happening inside your head, Harry, but why on earth should that mean that it is not real?" "Just because you have the emotional range of a teaspoon doesn't mean we all have." "We've all got both light and dark inside us. What matters is the part we choose to act on. That's who we really are." "Do you remember me telling you we are practicing non-verbal spells, Potter?" "The truth. It is a beautiful and terrible thing, and should be treated with caution." "Mr. Moony presents his compliments to Professor Snape, and begs him to keep his abnormally large nose out of other people's business. "He can run faster than Severus Snape confronted with shampoo." "We are only as strong as we are united, as weak as we are divided." "Death's got an Invisibility Cloak?" Harry interrupted again. "You're a prefect? Oh Ronnie! That's everyone in the family!" "It is the unknown we fear when we look upon death and darkness, nothing more." "Dumbledore watched her fly away, and as her silvery glow faded he turned back to Snape, and his eyes were full of tears. "Oh well... I'd just been thinking, if you had died, you'd have been welcome to share my toilet." "I don't go looking for trouble. Trouble usually finds me." "Percy wouldn't notice a joke if it danced naked in front of him wearing one of Dobby's hats." "You haven't got a letter on yours," George observed. "I suppose she thinks you don't forget your name. But we're not stupid-we know we're called Gred and Forge." "You know, Minister, I disagree with Dumbledore on many counts...but you cannot deny he's got style..." "I DON'T CARE!" Harry yelled at them, snatching up a lunascope and throwing it into the fireplace. "I'VE HAD ENOUGH, I'VE SEEN ENOUGH, I WANT OUT, I WANT IT TO END, I DON'T CARE ANYMORE!" "Yeah, Quirrell was a great teacher. There was just that minor drawback of him having Lord Voldemort sticking out of the back of his head!" "Cinderella? Snow White? What's that? An illness?" "It is my belief... that the truth is generally preferable to lies." "Don't talk to me." "It was, he thought, the difference between being dragged into the arena to face a battle to the death and walking into the arena with your head held high. Some people, perhaps, would say that there was little to choose between the two ways, but Dumbledore knew - and so do I, thought Harry, with a rush of fierce pride, and so did my parents - that there was all the difference in the world." "How do you feel, Georgie?" whispered Mrs. Weasley. "Holey? You have the the whole world of ear-related humor before you, you go for holey?" "Nitwit, blubber, oddment, tweak." "He was my mum and dad's best friend. He's a convicted murderer, but he's broken out of wizard prison and he's on the run. He likes to keep in touch with me, though...keep up with news...check if I'm happy..." You'd think people had better things to gossip about," said Ginny as she sat on the common room floor, leaning against Harry’s legs and reading the Daily Prophet. "Three Dementor attacks in a week, and all Romilda Vane does is ask me if it’s true you’ve got a Hippogriff tattooed across your chest." "You could say sorry," suggested Harry bluntly. "Is it true that you shouted at Professor Umbridge?" "Dumbledore says people find it far easier to forgive others for being wrong than being right." "Give her hell from us, Peeves." "Now, you two – this year, you behave yourselves. If I get one more owl telling me you've – you've blown up a toilet or –" "The thing about growing up with Fred and George," said Ginny thoughtfully, "is that you sort of start thinking anything's possible if you've got enough nerve." "Is 'fat' really the worst thing a human being can be? Is 'fat' worse than 'vindictive', 'jealous', 'shallow', 'vain', 'boring' or 'cruel'? Not to me." "Ah" said Dumbledore gently, "Yes I thought we might hit that little snag!" "Indifference and neglect often do much more damage than outright dislike." "Youth can not know how age thinks and feels. But old men are guilty if they forget what it was to be young." "Dumbledore's man through and through, aren't you Potter?" "We do not need magic to transform our world. We carry all of the power we need inside ourselves already." "Harry was left to ponder in silence the depths to which girls would sink to get revenge." "From now on, I don't care if my tea leaves spell 'Die, Ron, Die,' I'm chucking them in the bin where they belong." "One can never have enough socks," said Dumbledore. "Another Christmas has come and gone and I didn't get a single pair. People will insist on giving me books." "Sometimes you remind me a lot of James. He called it my 'furry little problem' in company. Many people were under the impression that I owned a badly behaved rabbit." "So light a fire!" Harry choked. "Yes...of course...but there's no wood!" ... "He must have known I'd want to leave you." "It is a curious thing, Harry, but perhaps those who are best suited to power are those who have never sought it. Those who, like you, have leadership thrust upon them, and take up the mantle because they must, and find to their own surprise that they wear it well." "Books are like mirrors: if a fool looks in, you cannot expect a genius to look out." "For instance, this new idea that You-Know-Who can kill with a single glance from his eyes. That’s a basilisk, listeners. One simple test: Check whether the thing that’s glaring at you has got legs. If it has, it’s safe to look into its eyes, although if it really is You-Know-Who, that’s still likely to be the last thing you ever do." "You should write a book," Ron told Hermione as he cut up his potatoes, "translating mad things girls do so boys can understand them." "What happened down in the dungeons between you and Professor Quirrell is a complete secret, so, naturally the whole school knows." "An Unbreakable Vow?" said Ron, looking stunned. "Nah, he can’t have... Are you sure?" "Hello, Harry" said George, beaming at him. "We thought we heard your dulcet tones." "He accused me of being Dumbledore's man through and through." "Why were you lurking under our window?" Every second he breathed, the smell of the grass, the cool air on his face, was so precious: To think that people had years and years, time to waste, so much time it dragged, and he was clinging to each second." "A breeze ruffled the neat hedges of Privet Drive, which lay silent and tidy under the inky sky, the very last place you would expect astonishing things to happen. Harry Potter rolled over inside his blankets without waking up. One small hand closed on the letter beside him and he slept on, not knowing he was special, not knowing he was famous, not knowing he would be woken in a few hours' time by Mrs. Dursley's scream as she opened the front door to put out the milk bottles, nor that he would spend the next few weeks being prodded and pinched by his cousin Dudley...He couldn't know that at this very moment, people meeting in secret all over the country were holding up their glasses and saying in hushed voices: "To Harry Potter - the boy who lived!" "I don't believe in the kind of magic in my books. But I do believe something very magical can happen when you read a good book." "I enjoyed the meetings, too. It was like having friends." "Harry!" said Fred, elbowing Percy out of the way and bowing deeply. "Simply splendid to see you, old boy-" "Harry, don't go picking a row with Malfoy, don't forget, he's a prefect now, he could make life difficult for you..." "This is night, Diddykins. That's what we call it when it goes all dark like this. " "There's always room for a story that can transport people to another place." "Differences of habit and language are nothing at all if our aims are identical and our hearts are open." "Mistletoe," said Luna dreamily, pointing at a large clump of white berries placed almost over Harry's head. He jumped out from under it. "We'll be there Harry," said Ron "There are some things you can't share without ending up liking each other, and knocking out a twelve-foot mountain troll is one of them." "I don't mean to be rude—" he began, in a tone that threatened rudeness in every syllable. "Harry - you're a great wizard, you know." "Does it hurt?"' The childish question had escaped Harry's lips before he could stop it. Dying? Not at all,' said Sirius. 'Quicker and easier than falling asleep." "Just then Neville caused a slight diversion by turning into a large canary." "For future reference, Harry, it is raspberry...although of course, if I were a Death Eater, I would have been sure to research my own jam preferences before impersonating myself." — Dumbledore "To hurt is as human as to breathe." "I'll be in my room, making no noise and pretending that I don't exist." "Malfoy glanced around. Harry knew he was checking for signs of teachers. Then he looked back at Harry and said in a low voice, "You're dead, Potter." "Don't worry. You're just as sane as I am." "Are you insane? Of course I want to leave the Dursleys! Have you got a house? When can I move in?" "Ginny, listen...I can't be involved with you anymore. We've got to stop seeing each other. We can't be together." "What would come, would come...and you would have to meet it, when it did." "I’m never wearing them," Ron was saying stubbornly. "Never." "The best of us must sometimes eat our words." "Nobody's ever asked me to a party before, as a friend. Is that why you dyed your eyebrow, for the party? Should I do mine too?" "It is a strange thing, but when you are dreading something, and would give anything to slow down time, it has a disobliging habit of speeding up." "What was there to be gained by fighting the most evil wizard who has ever existed?" said Black, with a terrible fury in his face. "Only innocent lives, Peter!" "But before he went loopy he was the life and soul of the party," said Fred. "He used to down an entire bottle of firewhiskey, then run onto the dance floor, hoist up his robes, and start pulling bunches of flowers out of his--" "How're we getting to King's Cross tomorrow, Dad?" asked Fred as they dug into a sumptuous pudding. "Did you like question ten, Moony?" asked Sirius as they emerged into the entrance hall. "There's nothing better when something comes and hits you and you think 'YES'!" "I have one last hope for you, which is something that I already had at 21. The friends with whom I sat on graduation day have been my friends for life. They are my children’s godparents, the people to whom I’ve been able to turn in times of trouble, friends who have been kind enough not to sue me when I’ve used their names for Death Eaters. At our graduation we were bound by enormous affection, by our shared experience of a time that could never come again, and, of course, by the knowledge that we held certain photographic evidence that would be exceptionally valuable if any of us ran for Prime Minister." "By all means continue destroying my possessions. I daresay I have too many." "I really feel that we're not giving children enough credit for distinguishing what's right and what's wrong. I, for one, devoured fairy tales as a little girl. I certainly didn't believe that kissing frogs would lead me to a prince, or that eating a mysterious apple would poison me, or that with the magical "Bibbity-Bobbity-Boo" I would get a beautiful dress and a pumpkin carriage. I also don't believe that looking in a mirror and saying "Candyman, Candyman, Candyman" will make some awful serial killer come after me. I believe that many children recognize Harry Potter for what it is, fantasy literature. I'm sure there will always be some that take it too far, but that's the case with everything. I believe it's much better to engage in dialog with children to explain the difference between fantasy and reality. Then they are better equipped to deal with people who might have taken it too far." "You foul, loathsome, evil little cockroach!" And that's only the Books/Authors I like. Hey cool! I've always wanted to have those profiles that are obscenely long and take about a year to finish scrolling through. |
