I ashamedly like reading horoscopes. I like school, including learning. I'll be walking with somebody and suddenly drift off. I think George is the best Beatle. I miss having long hair. I don't think black nails are emo.

I'm probably the only person in this entire board who doesn't like Harry Potter (please do not kill me!) I also like school! I get to the point where I feel empty if I'm on holiday I'm terribly clumsy, I twist my ankles constantly and they never get hurt, plus I have a ton of bruises... I have a mole on the palm of my hand (I don't know if that's funny but what the heck, lets just put that in also...) and a congenital black spot on my left eye (kinda creepy... fortunately it's not visible unless I pull my eyelid up, lol) I think lottery is a complete waste of money and time... And, last but not least, I color code almost everything... a bit sad but...;D

I've also tried, movie and book-wise, but it puts me to sleep immediately, so for me it's more of a soporific sleep-inducement treatment than actual fun..., so this way I became an anti-"Potterist", lol. The funniest thing is that my dad actually likes Harry Potter, so every time I see it on TV I tease him, lol.

I also don't like harry potter.. I tried to read the first one and it annoyed me a lot! I've read the order of the phoenix completely and it was ok, the movies are ok too, but I'm not gonna read them all, I'm just not interested in them.. so you 2 are not the only one! oh, I used to have a mole in the palm of my hand, but for some reason it disappeared

I like Harry Potter, but I didn't really enjoy the first book that much. It was ok but I found it a little dull in parts. Once I read the second book I liked it a lot more.

I think the third one is the one that hooked me. That's what I tell people - just get passed the first one or two and then it gets good. My roommate is just finishing the 2nd one for the first time and she's just starting to get really into it.

When I started reading HP, the first 3 books had already been published. I wasn't expecting much, I just wanted to see what all the fuss was about - maybe that's why I was so pleasantly surprised and got hooked right away!
