New here to Potter Geek? Introduce yourself here and make yourself feel more at home with your fellow forum members.
I'll start off. My name is AmberEyes, real name being Amber. I'm extremely prone to typos although my grammar and spelling are pretty good. My favorite house is Ravenclaw and my favorite character is Remus Lupin. I've probably read Order of the Pheonix double the amount of times as the others in the series.
Really, if any of you describe yourself as a Potter fan, just... don't expect to be put in Ravenclaw. Just reply to this thread and you're sure to receive welcomings.

Hi everyone. Woah, first post in this place! Lol. Well, my name is Magdalene Sarah Elizabeth Brightman. Yeah, it's my real name, that's why I'm posting it here, cause I'm introducing myself!!! Yes, I do share a last name with the World-famous Soprano--and for those of you who might not know of her, she is an amazingly talented woman, who I can be proud to call my hero, and my godmother (totally, totally true). Like Sarah, my mother is a classical crossover artist, though not famous *cries at that*, she just did it in college and stuff like that.
But enough about that, this is about me, remember! Lol. Normally, I'm not this conceited unless I'm introducing myself to people of fame and fortune. O.o Well, I'm nineteen--just turned the age about four or so days ago. I was born and raised in Berkhamstead, England until I was around thirteen years old, and then I moved to bright and sunny California, along with the rest of the brood. It took adjusting to, but it's quite a cozy place. For specifics, I live in Nor Cal, not So Cal…
I am a fan of all things musical--Broadway and West End related, along with movie musicals (except HSM--no offense to anyone), and I totally love Repo! the Genetic Musical (no duh… just said that Mag...), and share the name with Sarah's character (which is really wierd lol.), and of course Harry Potter (in fact I've had a crush on Daniel Radcliffe since he appeared in the BBC Channel movie David Copperfield (or whatever it was... I'm bad at remembering movie titles). I am a local star when it comes to drama productions, and I mainly focus on music, hence musicals. I am an avid cosplayer, and so maybe if you all are too, we'll see each other at Cons and not even know it! LOL! I love roleplaying because it involved writing, and I am also a writer by hobby. Fan fictions are the easiest for me, and I have no idea on how to come up with original material, or someone already has a book about the idea I had. Whatever. It's great for creativity and stuff like that.
So wanna meet my family!? Too bad, you don't get to, but I will let you read their names and ages. I have eight older sisters--talk about Charmed... lol, and one younger one (but she's never around, YAY!). Unfortunately, I cannot put pictures up, or Mum would kill me. Yes, all of our names start with M, because my mother has no variety in that blisslful brain of hers...
*Margarine Brightman (Mother) = Not allowed to say! ^^
+Maria "Mary" Brightman = 29 years old +Marla Brightman = 29 years old +Margaret Brightman =28 years old +Marie Brightman = 27 years old +Mala Brightman = 26 years old +Molly Brightman = 25 years old +Melanie Brightman = 25 years old +Marguerite "Meg" Brightman = 22 years old +Mairead Brightman = 21 years old +Magdalene "Mag; Maggie" Brightman =19 years old (ME!) +Marni Hale = 19 years old (This Marni is my best friend who takes the place as my "twin sister" and adds an other sister to the group. I consider her a replacement to my little sister Marnie...) +Marnie Brightman = 13 years old
Yesh, it is a giant household, and we have a giant house. Well, no one, 'cept me, Marni, Mairead, and Meg live there. Everyone else has got their own place, and my younger sister stays with our aunt in Southern California. Mostly, though no one lives there, everyone does stay for a week or two, just to help around. Well, I've just realized that this is a whole lot of stuff, so maybe I should just stop while I'm ahead and give other people a chance

Awesome, haha. Nice to have you here. I've been reading fanfiction for a while, but have only just started writing it. I'd be interested in reading some of yours if you've got anything. I'm like you, too, with plot ideas... they don't come quite as easily to me as to other people, it seems... but I like to write anyway. I can see already that you're no stranger to forums, hm?

Of course not... I used to own several, now it's just down to three... I hate advertising... that's like the worst part about having a site... ><;

Bonjour!!
No, I'm not French, but sometimes I would love to be. Anyway, my name is: Ines Filipa Mateus Da Silva Ew, right? Yeah exactly so I tend to go by Pip. Although my pen name is Pixie Pop. Don't know why. So anyway, I was born in Portugal and then when I was 6 I moved to England, where I have lived ever since. I am now at the blossoming age of 17. YAY! So I love languages. I speak English and portuguese both at native level and I studied advanced level french and german. And my father lives in Spain so I go there and practice my Spanish every now and then.
Anyway, what else is interesting about me? I go to a school. I am very immature. I am hyperactive too. My friends are used to it. I love forums... I'm a member of several. I am currently trying to make my friend join these forums. I am in love with James Potter. Don't ask why. I write fanfics (mostly fluffy, cheesy ones.) and I also write lyrics.
Urm I actually am lost for words... just can't think of what to say... that's a first.
Oh well, I guess you'll get to know me over time.
Pip xxx

urm well at one point I decided to randomly cut myself bangs and my friend said I looked like a Pip not an Ines and it kinda stuck. Then I told her my middle name was Filipa which is the portuguese version of Philippa so it made it stick even more.
