tigertoots:

1. What did you want to be when you grew up?
Well, when I was eight I wanted to be a scientist, at ten a doctor, and sixteen I had no specific idea, although I knew it would have to be in the arts somehow.

2. Did you follow through? If not, what happened?
Um... well, I paint. I write. Neither for any money, though. Yet. Still working on following through, I guess.

3. Is your life turning out the way you thought it would when you were a kid? If not, is it better or worse?
Not even! I'm not sure how I expected it to turn out, but obscurity wasn't in the picture. I think somewhere in the last decade or two my attitude has become much more... socially acceptable. I think I'm a better person than I would have been if my life had turned out as I thought it would, but that's made it more difficult.

4. Paradoxes aside, if you could time-travel back to when you were 10 years old, what would you tell your 10-year-old self?
Don't be scared. You'll survive, and it will get better. But try not to swear so much when you get older, K?

5. Do you think the child you were, would like the adult you've become?
Depends what age. Before ten, probably. After ten... I don't know. Probably not.

Snape's Journal

Feb. 7, 1998

Good God! And I thought I loathed Potter!

The Ministry, in all it's misguided glory, is fiddling around with eugenics! Not only would this law require an unmarried pureblood to choose an unmarried witch or wizard of Muggle descent, but they're requiring them to breed?

This is disgustingly stupid, even for those nincompoops.

On the bright side, with my pleasant personality, I'm sure I'll be topping the list of all the lovely pureblood witches throughout the isles.

Oh shit. What if I am topping the list of all those lovely ex-students who are out for revenge? Must talk to Albus in the morning!
