YOU TREAT ME JUST LIKE ANOTHER
stranger, well its nice to meet you sir. i guess i'll go.[/color][/font][/center]

"it's a pleasure to meet you, my name is theodore adam falkner. i'm currently sixteen years old, though my birthday is on the fifteenth of december, so i'm nearly seventeen. my house is gryffindor and it's my sixth year here at hogwarts. if you haven't guessed, i take great pride in the house in which i was placed. i suppose i'm one of the few students here who actually cares about their education these days. well... one of the students outside of ravenclaw. it seems to me that all anyone cares about anymore is partying and causing trouble. i'm not saying that i don't do those things occasionally, but i'd like to think of myself as a fairly well-rounded person. for example, i'm a member of dumbledore's army. that's really important to me because i'm on the good side of things. dumbledore wanted what was best for wizards, and so do i. needless to say, i don't get along terribly well with many slytherins. then again, most gryffindors don't.
i've always been a calm person. someone who seems like they just have everything together and planned. i don't know why, but that's just my nature. i'm sincere, courteous, honest, reliable, independent and serene. i'm also solemn, which i don't really see as a good or a bad thing. i just happen to be serious a lot of the time and not over-excited. i worry that i come off as boring, but people who really know me are able to get past my grim exterior and find that i'm really just a sweet, big hearted, loveable guy. i guess that's why some people call me teddy. i'm affectionate every once in a while, but i don't personally think that people have to constantly kiss to feel appreciated. sure, it's nice, but sometimes things like holding hands or just knowing that someone is there for you is comforting enough. so as i was saying, i'm a lot of fun when you get to know me. i do have a bit of a temper when you make me angry, but not many people get on my bad side. i look for the good in people, because that's what everyone deserves. for someone to try and find their heart.
i am a gentleman. i'm not really one of those modern, less suave guys, but i'm more like a good old fashioned man. someone who has high expectations for themselves and tries to always treat women the way they should be treated. you know, bringing flowers, writing notes, opening doors and pulling out chairs. that kind of stuff. i slip up every once in a while, but not often. hey, i'm a teenager. i guess i owe my chivalry to my parents, scarlett melissa jameston and richard elliot falkner. they raised me right. they were both wizards, so i'm pureblood, but i have plenty of friends who aren't. it doesn't matter to me nearly as much as it does to a slytherin. i do admit that i like being pureblood and i'm grateful, but i would survive either way.
i grew up in a loving, supportive household where everyone did their own share of work without using magic and fended for themselves. we were never really alone though, because we knew that we could always count on each other. still, we got a sense of independence and learned how to make ourselves useful without relying on our wands. i think that's really valuable, especial now. so many people use their wands to do everything that i know they would die on their own. on the other hand, i rarely use mine unless i'm in class and it's required. unfortunately, i was the "good child." i have three other siblings. two sisters and a brother. cassandra is seventeen, loretta is twelve, and jonathan is nineteen. from the day he was born jonathan was a mess. he got into everything, acted hateful, and threw tantrums. when he wasn't allowed to use magic he did anyways. he was disobedient and later got involved with the wrong crowd. he's a slytherin and he hates me and dumbledore now.
when i think about it, i do get sad when i take the time to realize that i lost my brother. or... i never really had him in the first place. he didn't care about me, yet he meant the world to me. i'm kind of guarded around people in general because of that. scared that i'll like someone and they won't care about me. i don't want a repeat of that scenario. anyways, my sisters kind of turned out like him. i'm trying hard to save loretta since she's still so young, but cassie is a bad influence. naturally, loretta looks up to her older sister. cassandra recently discovered the 'wonders of drugs' and we're all very concerned about her, but she's been a rebel for five years. she was a good kid, but jonathan got to her. she hasn't become a hatchling yet, but it's only a matter of time. i'm in gryffindor to do my parents proud and be the child that they deserve.
as for my wand, i don't really see why it's important to mention it. i already said that i don't use it much, but here it goes. i have a fourteen inch wand made of vine wood that contains a dragon heartstring core. it is somewhat flexible, though i don't really know how flexible exactly because i didn't want to bend it too much and break it."
