Hello Everyone! We are the authors of Arty Goes to Hippie School, also known as Lizzy and Maggie.

We are really, really, REALLY sorry about the long wait for chapter 13! We are considering doing the story in volumes, each one being about 15 chapters long. So for the meantime, you shall have to wait until we get our act together. :D

Anyway. You can skip this part if you don't care about our music/literature preferences (we wouldn't...).

Favorite Songs: Beautiful Day, U2; Safety Dance, Men Without Hats...this will be continued when Lizzy can think of more music that we've listened to and didn't hate...

Favorite Books: Artemis Fowl, Percy Jackson, Harry Potter, His Dark Materials, Romeo and Juliet (we are suckers for tragedies), Beatrix Potter (Children's stories by Beatrix Potter), The Hunger Games Trilogy...

Funny Quotes:

Margaret & Elizabeth- Industrial Sized Tissues!!
P.S. If you read "Arty Goes To Hippie School" this quote will make sense.

Erin (our friend): Good day today! No rain,no tears,plus another plus,I didn't punch any holes in the wall!! And I finally patched the ones I made before up! Yay!!

Elizabeth: Wondering if my taking over the world will be in vain...

Maggie: Dammit, my camera is broken. I can't see anything!! Oh wait, I just forgot to take off the lens cap. Oops...

Bailey (a boy in our class): Super Sexy!
P.S. He says this with alarming regularity, or else we wouldn't mention it.

Also by Bailey: Was the Renaissanse Sexy?

In Remembrance

…In Remembrance to Severus Snape….

….A Slytherin who died like a Gryffindor…

...without all the red and gold crap.

…In Remembrance to Fred Weasley…

…Who fought bravely to the very end….

…And whose jokes will forever brighten his other half…

…And will loyally await his soul mate and brother…

… with many jokes…

...he's got forever to think of them, right?

…In Remembrance to Dobby…

…Who was more free and full of love…

...than any elf, and most humans.

….In Remembrance to Remus J. Lupin….

...the last real Marauderer...

…who was not just a wonderful father…

….a incredible husband and brave hero…

...as well as a freakin' awesome werewolf.

….In Remembrance to Nymphadora Tonks…

…who died for ‘the greater good’…

...and would probably hex me for calling her Nymphadora.

…In Remembrance of Alastor ‘Mad-Eye’ Moody….

…who’s motto ‘constant vigilance’ kept him alive…

...and scared the crap out of some kids too.

…In Remembrance of Tom Marvelo Riddle a.k.a. Voldemort….

…who was pretty cool, and cute when he was younger…

…but who got his ass thoroughly kicked in the end

…In Remembrance of Albus Dumbledore…

…whose past and wisdom confused us…

…whose seeming betrayal shocked us…

…but actually who turned out to be an okay guy in the end...

...despite the whole 'almost killing Harry' thing.

In Remembrance to Bellatrix Lestrange…

… because it’s was awesome how Molly slapped her with that Avada Kedavra!

She deserved everything she got and more.

…In Remembrance of Colin Creevey…

…who we really didn’t know too well…

…but took a lot of pictures and died fighting in a war…

…so he must’ve done something good…

…besides stalking Harry.

…In Remembrance of Hedwig…

...Harry actual first friend…

...who lived and died soaring.

25 THINGS (PLUS 1) I MUST NOT DO AT HOGWARTS AGAIN:

1. I will NOT sing “We’re off to see The Wizard” when I am sent to the headmasters office.

2. Dobby is NOT Yoda is disguise.

3. He is NOT Gollum either.

4. I will NOT bring a magic-8-ball to Divination Class.

7. I will NOT give Lupin a flea collar.

8. Nor will I leave dog-biscuits on his desk.

9. If a classmate falls asleep I will NOT take advantage of this and draw a Dark Mark on their arm.

10. Starting a betting-pool on the fate of this year’s Defence against the Dark Arts teacher is tasteless and tacky. It is NOT a clever money-making concept.

18. "Potter 6, Voldemort 0" is not a valid T-shirt slogan.

20. I will not charm Firenze pink and call him "My Little Pony."

21. No matter how funny it is I will NOT leave kitty litter in Prof. McGonagall’s office. (scratch office, leave it on her desk!?)
