Hey people,

I'm Marieke, I'm 23. I just love reading and writing and bugging my brother. I apologize for any spelling/grammar mistakes in my writing: I'm Dutch and like I said in Giving In somewhere I have dyslexia, so I can't really help it that it isn't perfect.

My favorite quotes:

"I believe your friends Misters Fred and George Weasley were responsible for trying to sent you a toilet seat. No doubt they thought it would amuse you."

"We'll get you another autograph. Lockhart'll sign anything if it stands still long enough."

"If you made a better rat than a human, it's not much to boast about, Peter."

"He sounds exactly like Moody. 'Constant vigilance!' You'd think I walk around with my eyes shut, banging off the walls..."

"Oh, are you prefect, Percy? You should have said something, we had no idea."

"Hang on, I think I remember him saying something about it. Once..."

"Or twice-"

"A minute-"

"All summer-"

"We tried to shut him in a pyramid, but Mum spotted us."

"So light a fire!"

"Yes... of course... but ther's no wood!"

"HAVE YOU GONE MAD! ARE YOU A WITCH OR NOT?"

"Yeah, someone might slip dragon dung in it again, eh, Percy?"

"That was a sample of fertilizer from Norway! It was nothing personal!"

"It was, we sent it."

"I was saying that Saturn was surely in a position of power in the heavans at the moment of your birth... your dark hair... your mean stature... tragic losses so young in life... I think I am right in saying, my dear, that you were born in midwinter?"

"No, I was born in July."

"Aaaah, when two Neptunes appear in the sky, it is a sure sign that a midget in glasses is being born."

"Don't be a prat, Neville, that's illegal. They wouldn't use the Crusiatus Curse on the campions. I thought it sounded a bit like Percy singing... maybe you've got to attack him while he's in the shower, Harry."

"Harry! Simply splendid to see you, old boy-"

"Marvelous, absolutely spiffing."

"That's enough, now."

"Mum! How really corking to see you-"

"But we're not stupid -- we know we're called Gred and Forge."

"Would anyone like me to help interpet the shadowy realms within their orb?"

"I don't need help, it's obvious what this means: there's going to be loads of fog tonight."

"The fates have informed me that your examination in June will concern the orb, and I am anxious to give you sufficient practice."

"Well honestly... who sets date of the exam? She does! What an amazing prediction!"

"Percy wouldn't recognize a joke if it danced naked in front of him wearing Dobby's tea cozy."

AND MY ALTIME FAVORITE:

"Mr. Moony presents his comliments to Professor Snape, and begs him to keep his abnormally large nose out of other people's business."

"Mr. Prongs agrees with Mr. Moony, and would like to add that Professor Snape is an ugly git."

"Mr. Padfoot would like to register his astonishment that an idiot like that ever became a professor."

"Mr. Wormtail bids Professor Snape a good day and advises he wash his hair, the slimeball."
