Three words: Beatles, Shakespeare, Harry Potter. That is how my friends describe me, though I'm not sure how I feel about being summed up in terms of individuals rather than characteristics. I am a college student (majoring in history and gender studies), an anglophile, a traveller, I make my own jewelry, and I love white cotton peasant blouses. And of course, I've been a Potterhead for eight years now. I loved Deathly Hallows, but I miss Lupin :(

Things Change by Gmariam
Rated: 3rd-5th Years •Summary:
James Potter has changed: no longer an arrogant, irresponsible prankster, he has matured into a responsible Head Boy with tops marks in Transfiguration. Lily Evans has changed as well: normally studious and in control, she has lost focus as she struggles with Head Girl responsibilities and N.E.W.T level studies. An unexpected encounter in the corridors one weekend leads to several startling realizations, the least of which is that things have definitely changed between James Potter and Lily Evans.

In class or in detention, in Quidditch matches or full-moon wanderings, fleeing before monsters or confronting dark wizards, they wrote, measure after measure, their own eight-handed piece.Messrs Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs, are proud to present a Symphony for Quartet.
