We've got to save Ginny Weasley from the Basilisk

There are some things that words just can't describe.
They give you a feeling, a sort of warm tingly, well, warmth in your heart.
Harry and the Potters is my warm heart.


Seriously. I discovered for myself HATP around 3 years ago as a nerdy, nerdy, again, nerdy teen trying to find myself in lame music and various trends. I'll have to admit, if I had one regret it's that I didn't try out WRock, aka Wizard Rock.


Groups such as:


Draco and the Malfoys
The Whomping Willows
Ministry of Magic
Roonil Wazlib
The Neville Longbottom Experience
Ginny & the Heartbreakers
Potterwatch
and
Lord Voldi and the Darkmarks


are only a small taste of what the WRock world has to offer us, and what they've got to offer is something quite unique. 


although filled with plenty of incredibly nerdy Harry Potter references, this stuff is actually quite enjoyable for the light Harry Potter fan as well.


In closing. Here is a gift from me to you. Trust me when I say. This is good stuff.

When One Takes A Picture Of Oneself

Is there like a picture taking etiquette?

If I happened to have a set of rules, I think this would be mine, although I'm probably guilty of breaking at least one of these rules.

Here we goo:

Do NOT take a picture of your eyeball and use it as a profile picture.

Do NOT try to CONTORT your body to take a photo from a certain angle and fit your whole self into that photo, it's not pretty.

TRY not to give us a clear shot down the cleav girls, a little bit is whatever, do your thing, but really? I don't want to see your stomach through the top of your shirt.

PLEASE if you're taking some form of mirror photo, try to keep the camera out of the shot. This is only forgivable in group photos.

WEAR PANTS.

Try not to get your whole ARM in the photo, we understand that you are holding the camera, mainly because your elbow takes up 2/3 of this picture.

...WEAR PANTS

Do not CRY, as you take photos of yourself.

Check to make sure that whatever's in the background isn't completely embarrassing or something of the sort.

and again, I would like to stress, a long plaid shirt that barely covers your behind is not a dress. WEAR PANTS.

signed, me.
