So, hello

Yeah, so.... I'm here. Happy new year.
Lots of things have happened. I got my signed copy of The Fault In Our Stars. I'm going to LeakyCon this year. I'm on tumblr all the time. I'm writing Anderberry and a future!fic, both Glee. I'm obsessed with RENT. I have a Twitter, @sultana_qureshi. My 6 month long podcast high is fading slightly.

Sorry for not being around.

My SMFAH Summer! (And Other Schnitzel)

Greetings everyone! Miss me? I just wanted to thank everyone for reading my blog, I love seeing where everyone is from. It just blows my mind. (though I would love more comments ;)) I have a few (that's a lie) updates:
Yes I did change the title of the blog. SQ's Page is quite boring, and I like the current title more.
I is trying to write a HP8 review, which was awesome, but that isn't working out all that well. It's super long and all that jazz, so I'm not sure if I should publish it.
My fan-fic writing is going well, but I'm not continuing Life and Times. I'll be releasing one more chapter and that's it. I'm not proud of it at all. The writing is very amateur and Lexi is too much of a Mary-Sue. But read My Beautiful Girl and I Will Rejoin You. Those are quite good *nods* So after this, read 'em!
POTTERMORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I GOT IN!!!! I only got 2 hours of sleep that day. Luckily I was at my step-mom's house, and I could find some wi-fi floating around. If you need to find me I am FelicisPhoenix122. I love my name. I got in on the 3rd day, which means I'll be actually getting in around the 24th of August. I CAN'T WAIT! (this actually happened during my summer vacation, so it's relevant to the title)
I GOT TO SEE DAN RADCLIFFE ON BROADWAY! It was so effing good. I waited after the show and didn't get his autograph :'(. Well there were about ten bazillion people waiting. Ugh, it was so hot. Anyway, I'm going to be seeing it again when Dare-Bear is on! YAY!
I also got my ears pierced, that was fun. And I saw my baby sister, who is not an actual baby,  but is seven years younger than me. I convinced her that Pigfarts and Rumbleroar is real. I love tricking little kids. :D I'm so evil. I miss her! Soon she'll be all old and stuff and I won't be able to put her on my lap. *sigh* Farah, if you are reading this (though I doubt it because you still need to learn how to read.) LESSTHANTREE!!!!!
OOOOOOOOOOO, and the Ann Arbor T-Shirt Company just released new merch. Mom, prepare to have your wallet raided. :D
That is all (for now anyway)

IT'S POTTERMORE, PEEPS!

Pottermore Logo

Ignore my 90's talk :) and let's get to business. POTTERMORE! Unless you've been living in a cave or in jail (You see what I did there? I get it if you don't. It's a really obscure Glee reference :P) for the past week, you know that JKR,  our beloved writer, whose priority is pen and paper, has just announced something. There are so many commas in that sentence... Anyway, I won't tell you what. You have to go to the YouTube channel 'JKRowlingAnnounces' Link will be at the bottom. See, I make it semi-easy for you. :D
But Pottermore won't be open until October but they have 1,000,000 beta-user spots that you can get on July 31st, (Which is Harry and Jo's {and Joey Richter's}birthday) so try and get on of those. I cannot wait until October. It's gonna be a blast.

PS: Everything I say I heard from MuggleCast, which I watched live tonight! IT WAS EPIC!

Harry Potter!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I FRIGGING LOVE HARRY POTTER! I do; it's the truth. :) Sorry I haven't posted in a while. Life is REALLY busy. The series was 1st introduced to me by my mom when I was 7. She'd gotten me the 1st 5 books.
I have read every printed (by J.K. Rowling) book that is part of the HP franchise; the 7 books, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, Quiddich Through the Ages, Tales of Beedle The Bard, even the Prequel on the internet :) I also just got 'Film Wizardry' which, though not by Ms. Rowling, is AMAZING! It's about how the movies are made. Speaking about the movies I've seen every movie 10000000000000000 times (I can mouth the words along with the actors)
I haven't been to the theme park yet. It's not fair :( *sobs* Oh well. I'll go some day.
Every avid HP fan has what I call 'stats' They're things like house, wand type, favorite characters, etc. Here are mine:

House: Slytherin (Don't hate!(: )
Wand: 12 inches, unicorn hair, not sure what wood, maybe cherry.
Fave. Class: Charms or DADA
Patronus: Penguin
Animagus: Not Sure...
(In order of awesomeness) Fave. male character/s: Draco, George, Seamus, Fred, and Neville
(Again, listed in order of awesomeness) Fave. female/s: Lavender*, Luna
Favorite Wrock** band: Draco and the Malfoys and The Ministry of Magic
Merchandise: Everything I could take out from 'Film Wizardry' and hopefully 2 wands (Draco's and Fleur's) and hopefully a Slytherin tie

I hope you liked this post, it took me a while to write. I had to make sure that I wasn't missing anything. If you're thinking that I'm a creepy obsessed fan but, no, I don't think wizards are really. If they were, life would be a heck of a lot easier.

*I know everyone hates her but I think she's just like a normal teenage girl (apart from being a which) and during the Battle she got bitten by Greyback and we're still not sure if she's alive. I think she is and the Battle and the scars (emotionally and from Greyback) changed her.
**If you don't know what Wrock is YouTube it! It's the best genre of music ever!

Wizarding World of Harry Potter

Hello! Wazz up? That aside, I might be going to WWOHP in July!(As you might know about if you read my 'Leaky Con' Post) I mentioned WWOHP in that post. So I wanted to talk about my plan. My plan takes about three days. The first day is for shopping. I don't want to look like a muggle. :) At least a Slytherin tie or something.
The next two days are for rides and stuff. I want to go on 'The Forbidden Journey' It sound totally pwn. I'm not a big roller coaster person so I don't think I'll be going on 'The Dragon Challenge' but I'll go on 'Flight of the Hippogriff'
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! It all sound so fun! I can't wait!

LeakyCon 2011

I MIGHT BE GOING TO LEAKYCON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks to my awesome dad! I know that he's doing something that he wouldn't do for anyone else. He really hates Harry Potter. I know *gasp!* :) I really can't wait!!! *Spaz* I do hope I go. It'll be really fun. I really want to meet Team Starkid/makers of AVPM. And I've wanted to go to 'The Wizarding World of HP' since it opened. SLYTHERIN PRIDE! (yes I think that I would be in Slytherin) I have a plan about 'WWOHP' which you can read about in a post I'll write soon. :-P
And more good news is that it's the weekend of the last HP film. Listening to Wizard Rock live would be cool. I have lots of 'Draco and the Malfoys' songs on my iPod. Listen to them! I'm getting off topic. So all in all I might be going to Orlando.Wish me luck!

Fan-Fiction Discovery! :o

Hey! I've just been sucked into the world of Harry Potter fan-fic! It's amazing! I clicked the link on MuggleNet by accident. But the website looked cool so I clicked the Romance category and in it there were loads of sub-categories. I just had to click the Draco/Hermione link. I'm an insanely big Dramione fan.** The third story there was long (6 chapters long)* but it was amazing. It's called 'Shrouds' The ending was so sad. I loved it.

My other favorite Dramione fan-fic is called 'Withered Petals'. It's only a page long. It made me cry so hard.
The person who wrote 'Shrouds' is brilliant. I've read some of her other stories. They're really good.:) Read them! Fan-fic rules!
Dramione forever
-S <3


NOTE: All of these stories are from the MuggleNet fanfic site, not fanfiction.net

*I just wanted to add that I have recently read a story called "An Aversion To Change" which was 42 chapters long. So compared to "An Aversion" "Shrouds" isn't that long. ("An Aversion" was also a Dramione, just wanted to add)
**I also read a post-Hogwarts story about Harry after the battle and about the funerals he had to attend. I liked it because it included Fred's funeral. (I also <3 the twins)
