Hey! My real name is Hannah (though I WISH it were Astrid)

I live on the island of Oahu and I absolutely LOVE How to Train Your Dragon!

I mainly joined this site to comment and favorite stories, plus I love coming in contact with other HTTYD lovers :D

My friends tell me Astrid was written and modeled after me, I don't know, see a resemblance? xD

I ride horses, have been taking Karate for 9 years, wrestle, swim, run cross country, do judo, and play softball.

I have a darling German Shepherd named Little Bear, and am currently working my way towards owning a horse.

I love almost all types of music, excluding rap and reggae, but my favorite artist right now is Marina and the Diamonds. Check her out, she's awesome!

I want to be a pilot in the United States Air Force, and eventually settle down to become a Flight Surgeon or a Corporate Lawyer (still deciding).

I love the beach, I love hiking, I just love Hawaii! (it somewhat reminds me of Berk)

My favorite books are the Percy Jackson chronicles, Faerie Path Series, the Eragon series, Harry Potter, Skinjacker chronicles (Everlost, Everwild), Skies to Conquer, and pretty much every other book with excellent dialogue and a good plot (though I'm not big on the twilight stuff)

Movies are a biggy, I love everything from comedy to horror (but clever and original horror, not gore-fests). How To Train Your Dragon is obviously my favorite, The 13th Warrior is definitely a classic,but I love the Keira Knightley version of Pride and Prejudice, and Megamind and Tangled are high on the list, too :)

Keep writing and Ride on!!!

Favorite Poem: All That Time-May Swenson(it reminds me of Hiccup and Astrid)

I saw two trees embracing.
One leaned on the other
as if to throw her down.
But she was the upright one.
Since their twin youth, maybe she
had been pulling him toward her
all that time,

and finally almost uprooted him.
He was the thin, dry, insecure one,
the most wind-warped, you could see.
And where their tops tangled
it looked like he was crying
on her shoulder.
On the other hand, maybe he

had been trying to weaken her,
break her, or at least
make her bend
over backwards for him
just a little bit.
And all that time
she was standing up to him

the best she could.
She was the most stubborn,
the straightest one, that's a fact.
But he had been willing
to change himself--
even if it was for the worse--
all that time.

At the top they looked like one
tree, where they were embracing.
It was plain they'd be
always together.

Too late now to part.
When the wind blew, you could hear
them rubbing on each other.

Yeah, It's only fun if you get a scar out of it.-Astrid Hofferson
