Hey, I'm Laura. Just your typical 21 year old university student. Biology major with minors in Genetics and Biomanufacturing.
This tumblr is just random stuff I like/find funny or true to me. Mostly random thoughts and reblogs.
Harry Potter is life to me. I'm a bit of a geek; I like various fandoms. Harry Potter is where my true geekiness resides, though. I love rereading, rewatching, learning everything I can about it.
Proud Hufflepuff!
I dabble in poetry a bit, and have many ideas floating in my head for stories.
TV shows I like in no particular order: Once Upon A Time, Castle, Fringe, Rizzoli and Isles, Go On, Avatar: The Last Airbender, Legend of Korra, Bones, NCIS, NCIS LA, Merlin, Alphas, Doctor Who, Falling Skies, Psych, Modern Family, Justified, How I Met Your Mother, Big Bang Theory, Mike and Molly, White Collar, Covert Affairs, Perception, Elementary, My Little Pony. There's probably more but that's all I can remember right now.
Video games I like: 360:Halo, CoD, Assassin's Creed, Mirror's Edge, Skyrim, Fable. PC: Sims, Portal.

ok the things you do not notice wow.
“Hufflepuff is my favorite house in some ways,” responded Jo. “There comes a point in the book where each house has a chance to rise up to a certain challenge [she didn’t want to spoil it]. The Slytherins decided they’d rather not play, the Ravenclaws – some play, some won’t, but the Hufflepuffs stay to fight. The Gryffindors – compromised of lots of full hearty and show off people. The Hufflepuffs stayed for a different reason. They didn’t want to show off, they weren’t being wreckless, that’s the essence of Hufflepuff.”
“My daughter Jessica said to me recently, who wasn’t sorted into Hufflepuff, ‘I think we should all want to be Hufflepuffs.’ I can only say to you, I would not be disappointed at all to be in Hufflepuff. I’m a little upset anyone does feel that way.”

JK Rowling after finishing writing Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows
I can’t even imagine what that feels like. Ten years writing about the same story. Ten whole years, and then…the words “I’m finished” escape from her mouth. Like, how do you even…Crushing disbelief, of it actually being done, of the fact that you wrote that, that a chapter that consisted of ten years is now over. Relief? Sorrow? Joy?
But her expression, has all of that. Her mouth and eyes show happiness, but they do show a hint of disbelief and perhaps sorrow. The fact she says “I think” just shows the ‘oh wow’ moment.
