Internet
I'm always trying to figure out what to do with my journals since I find talking about my life very dull, and I never seem to get around to writing long essays on...anything. I've finally decided what I'm going to try, at least for a while. I wander the internet most every night and find all kinds of crazy things. I figure I'll set them here for posterity. I'm leaving off names and places to protect the sensitive, but these are real quotes (and my comments on them.) ;)



I just want the seventh book to be out and then for better or worse we know. We know once and for all if H/Hr will be or not and we know once and for all what kind of person JKR really is.

JKR is a Sith Lord.


I really hope that HBP was one great big red herring to make sure that the ending really has the twist that writers everywhere try to achieve.

Yes, Harry kissing Hermione instead of Ginny. Harry and Hermione have Tru Luv! Harry and Ginny got their love out of a Cracker Jacks box. :(

What did you say? "Voldemort?" Who's that?


H/hr will happen in book 7. I'm sure of it. Because there couldn't be any other reason for JKR to give us such a deep and meaningful relationship between them just for her to go with Ron and him go with Ginny.

Oh, I dunno...maybe FRIENDSHIP? Platonic love, even? I know, I'm thinkin' crazy thoughts.


If it's not Harry and Hermione in the end, what's the point of the whole HP books then?

I love it when people just come right out and say it. :)


If Harry sees Hermione kissing Ron or someone else, I'd want him to feel more.

Man, when I'm skimming I can misread things in weird ways. I read that one first as "If Harry kisses Ron, I'd want him to feel more." For a split second I thought: Why does she want Harry/Ron? Isn't this a H/Hr forum?


If love is going to save Harry....it needs to be profound, don't you think? Not just the love of friends and adopted Weasley family.

Pff, yeah. Friends and family are nothin'.


She still puts Harry before the needs of Ron. Something that Herons just don't see.

I see it. Because, you know, VOLDEMORT.


It has to be someone, IMO, that he's willing to sacrifice everything for...and not just his "saving people thing". That's too cliche.

Because the hero finding someone he is willing to sacrifice everything for HAS NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD.

(I'm going to give a little nod here to Lina Inverse from Slayers.)


After HBP I really fell apart for a while and ever since it has been a battle every day to maintain my faith not just in that type of relationship

I actually feel sorrow for people like this. As far as I can tell, these people put part of their identity into an uncertain detail, into something happening or not happening. That's extremely destructive. I'd like to help people like this, but I honestly don't know that there is a way. Your belief in something (for example here, a belief in a good relationship) does not depend on a detail. You should only take what you see as inspiration, and then apply the inspiration, not the detail, to your world.
