And you thought I'd never get a new BOTW
Seeing as I'm sure you're all getting tired of baseball, I suppose I should move on to a new BOTW. So, here goes.
With the new HP movie coming out, I decided it was time to watch the 4th one again. No, Daniel Radcliffe is not my new BOTW. He's not my type, and as for the character, I think if I knew Harry Potter, I wouldn't really like him. However, as a true Hufflepuff, I must say, I would probably have had a thing for Cedric Diggory. That being said, my new BOTW is
Robert Pattinson
Ordinarily, he's not one I would choose. If you really break it down, I don't think any of his features are all that. He has bushy eyebrows, too rosy cheeks, big lips, big hair (when he's not Diggory), and his nose is flat. However, then he was Diggory. At first I didn't like him in that role, but he's grown on me. Not quite sure how to describe it, just suffice it to say that I'm now with Hermione and Ginny when they check him out.
Robert was born May 13th, 1986 in London. (Hey, I think that makes him my youngest BOTW thus far!) He's 6'1", which is happy. He plays the guitar and the keyboard. (You know, though, I'm starting to wonder just how talented all these boys who play the guitar and piano are - all these bios say they do these 
things, but they can't all be good enough to warrant mention. I'm gonna claim Robert's good enough to warrant it, though.) He was in 'Vanity Fair,' but his part got cut out cuz it wasn't faithful to the book. (He was good in it, of course, though.) He likes sports, but prefers darts, cards, and pool (which are things I'm far more likely to do - heck, who wouldn't want a boy teaching her to be better at pool).

How can one fully respect someone who's been a model? And then there are all those feature things I mentioned earlier. And he smokes.
But, as I said, I'm a Hufflepuff. As some girl I don't know put it, 'Hufflepuff is all about acceptance.' Plus also, we're loyal. If Diggory is a Hufflepuff, I simply have to choose him.

What a coincidence! I am watching GOF right now!!! Talked my brother into it so we can watch OOTP next week! You're so critical of his looks ... i only know him as cedric and his character in the movie and book are good...
and we just got to the part where his body is brought back to the stadium and it always makes me cry. :(
And then to console myself, i just ate a dark chocolate Dove and it says "it's definately a bubble-bath day." And that's a coincidence too because i totally wanted to take a bubble bath this afternoon but there's only one tub in this house which is shared among 3 guys (can we say YUCK!?).
WHOA SOrry i just noticed my sign-in name says "Emmanuel Leina" ... i dunno why b/c i logged on as myself. Guess my computer's stuck on it. i use that longin name to make his website: www.emmanuelleinatransmara.com ... Anyway, if you didn't figure it out already i'm Linda!!!
what's with all these boys smoking? don't they know what a nasty habit it is?
um...hello - spoiler alert emmanuel leina. but anyway - the stadium part hit me cuz the music is still all happy band music when they get back. you forget that they don't know anything's happened. it's just all normal happy and then boom - that's all over.
i don't mean to be critical of his looks, the pieces go together nicely, but if i really look at him, none of the pieces are what i would call woo-woo (which in turn leads to him not being very photogenic, which made my job diffcult).
SPOILER - i agree with you on the stadium part. it really got me, too, that nobody else realized what was going on
i agree too about the stadium scene (and linda! hello! spoiler alert!!;)
and mel, i think he's pretty cute (for a brit;), but he does look like a model and is way too young!! (ok, ok, i'm a bit older than you though) but i have to wonder how he'd feel hearing you choose him because you're a hufflepuff too and so you HAVE to choose him... ;)
oh, and p.s. i think i'd be a hufflepuff too -- but ravenclaw would be a close 2nd :)
i wouldn't be in gryffindor cuz i'm not brave enough, but i think i'd be in the DA if someone told me about it :)
1 more thing: i'm glad you finally got a new botw :) ...but i understand why it took so long -- i mean, you had to spend at least SOME time with each member of your previous botw! ;)
scout likes your botw choice! :)
i didn't choose him cuz i had to cuz i'm a hufflepuff. (if i ever felt i had to choose someone, i wouldn't choose him.) that just gives me more of a reason.
and seriously, i didn't say he's bad-looking! do i need to rewrite this post?
i did say i check him out, after all. and the other day i watched the 'cedric' version of gof (just the parts he's in).
hehe :D
and as for youngness, this is a botW, not a lifetime commitment!
oh! chelley! i'm not ignoring you, i'm at the library.
you didn't say he wasn't hot. i think what you were saying is that woowooness wasn't the #1 reason he's your choice.
sorry bout the spoiler -- i was quite distraught while writing it obviously! Anyway, i figured people reading would already know the storyline (and if not, IT'S YOUR OWN FAULT FOR NOT KNOWING!). And I agree that it's the suddenness of the bright cheery happy music and smiling happy people that makes it so emotional. Plus Daniel does a good job. And Cedric's father.
Grr it made me Emmanuel again even though i logged in as myself!!!!
And that previous comment was supposed to be after i tried logging myself in again via "use a different account" but it still says "You're currently posting as Emmanuel Leina"... Sorry i dunno how to fix it!
we'll just have to start calling you emmanuel leina then :) but that's long... hmm, what should we call you instead? maybe "em"?
