Michael Di Gesu is hosting a sweeeeeeet blogfest today!
Simple, fun, my kind of blogfest! Go get in on the action!
All you have to do is sign up and tell the world which two characters would you want for your BFF, AND what kind of trio would you be? Isn't this GREAT!? We need something fun for this HUMP day.
So, I thought and thought...then thought some more. And came up with a problem. You see, I thought of my friends in school and I had different kinds in different "groups". I like all kinds of people, hang out with all kinds, and always have. SO, I couldn't pick JUST two. BUT I could pick 2 sets that best fit the kinds of people I grew up friends with(and still am friends with most today!)
First up we have the girl group. These lovely ladies were my giggles and shoulders. They had my back, were(are) brave, strong, and tough. Katie Bell and Alicia Spinnet would be my girls.
Second group, the boys. I loved having boy's as close friends. They were funny and never seemed to need to treat me as "the girl" in the group. I ran with their pack, played their delinquent hoodlum guy games, cursed like the best of them and could throw a punch.
So my second choice was easy. Sirius Black and Remus Lupin would be my boys. Smart, funny, rugged, loyal, sympathetic, but could also be brutal. (no one said the students had to be in HP's time!)
Hop around and find out who everyone's BFF's would be! Or just tell me here!
Happy Wednesday lovies!
I went with the top of my head answer, though like you I ran in a few different circles. Many were kind of concentric circles though--my bigger co-ed group of friends and my smaller, more intimate groups: the girls I had sleepovers with and the guys with whom I'd argue books and play D&D.
ReplyDeletewell I'm VERY glad when you are running with Sirius and Lupin you are being one of the boys, because Sirius is really LOUSY to the girls... I'm just saying... not that I've spent years arguing the matter *shifty* Great choices!
ReplyDeleteGood point about having friends in different groups. That is very true. I would love to get boxed with Sirius and Remus though!

Great minds think alike- I picked Lupin for one of my mates ;p I had a group of girl friends in school and a group of guy friends (from another school) that I hung out with all the time.
ReplyDeleteI think Hermine would agree with you. Boys are cool and lots of fun.

Boys are the best. I went to an engineering school for undergrad that was 70% guys and loved it!
ReplyDeleteColene...
ReplyDeleteThis is great! I said ANY characters from any book. I, like you, liked people for people whatever group they were associated with.
Thanks for joining in on the fun
Great idea to have a boy group and a girl group - wish I'd thought of that :-) Good choices! I like 'giggles and shoulders' - nicely expressive.
ReplyDeleteI would probably hang out with Lee Jordan, and the Weasley Twins.
ReplyDeleteI'd hang out with Luna. She's odd, but cool :)
ReplyDeleteDanger and adventure with Sirius and Lupin and then chill with the girls. Great combo!
ReplyDeleteI picked the Weasley twins for mine, but Sirius and Remus would also be a LOT of fun! Kind of like the twins from a different generation ~ :) Ah, to be able to jump into the pages of a good book...
ReplyDeleteI know--what a FUN blogfest. I'm not in it, but I'm having a good time reading people's choices. :)
ReplyDeleteLuna! :3
ReplyDeleteLike them both - can I join your gangs? :)
ReplyDeleteI chose the Creevey brothers...
Yep, love me some Sirius and Lupin!! Nice.
ReplyDeleteLove Katie Bell! You picked almost the same boys as me. Just switch James for Remus. Any of the three Marauders would be too much fun!
ReplyDeleteI love that you referred to your girl group as BRAVE and your boy group as RUGGED. Those are such cool words that say so much about you and your friends. Fun!
ReplyDeleteI'd hang out with the Weasley twins. Life would never be boring! Of course after a day they'd probably singe off my eyebrows with one of their gag tricks...
ReplyDeleteI didn't think about the older characters-it almost makes me want to go back and change things... LOL!
ReplyDeleteWow, that would be a hard choice to make! What a fun blogfest. I liked your picks. :)
ReplyDeleteLupin was one of my favorites too. Although there's a special place in my heart for Neville.
ReplyDeleteSirius and Remus, definitely! I didn't even think of them! I could so see you as a Quidditch girl just from your profile picture. Thanks for sharing!

Oh my god, how cool! Lupin - why didn't I think of him?? How fun! You know, I stopped by your blog early this morning to read and then I saw that you'd be putting up a post for this and I decided to wait and come back tonight to read it. I figured I'd enjoy your choices:)
ReplyDeleteSirius Black's always been my favorite character in the whole series so I am DOWN for you choosing him!! And Lupin. Everyone needs a werewolf!
ReplyDeleteGreat choices on the girls too! Never would have thought of those ones.
Sirius and Remis would definitely be my boy choices as well. They would be great buddies. Although, in a fight? They both end up dead so maybe I'm rethinking my choice at the moment. Perhaps, I'll go with the Weasley twins. They're always good for a laugh and a trick!
ReplyDeleteGreat choices I like Remus Lupin and also Neville Longbottom :O)
ReplyDeleteokay now I just think you're way cooler than before. :-)
ReplyDeleteI love the way you divided it into groups! And great picks. :)
ReplyDeleteI've never watched HP before so I don't know about your choices but it sounds like you guys had a lot of fun.
ReplyDeleteThat's a good point, about having different groups. But oh my, yes, Sirius and Remus, great choice!
