Hello SnitchSeekerians! Today we at the Quibbler bring you a very special guest of the Hufflepuff variety! Because everyone likes Hufflepuffs! So we're going to talk about the So-called life of *drumrolls* .... *whispers* this is your cue to introduce yourself to the people!
Oh sorry.. got caught up with the so-called life thinking of other things.. Hello everyone I'm Alisha Nolan, but most people call me Ali around here.

Hiiii Ali! On SS your username is Bazinga, and you're a 'puff! How did you choose your username and what do you think about being a Huffie?
Well the username is pretty easy to figure out if you have ever watched TV and have seen Big Bang Theory that's the inspiration of my username. I am a huge Sheldon fan and it doesn't show at all (sarcasm), but don't be alarmed if you do see any soft kitty singing when I'm around.. I'm harmless really.. As for being a puff, I love it. I think it fits me pretty well. Sometimes the colors I with weren't the colors of the American Football Team I don't like, but I love that yellow and black just the same.

*sings to self* BlackandYellowBlackandYellowBlackandYellow. Ahem. How did you start your SnitchSeeker journey? How did you find us and what made you stick around and get addicted?
Well my journey started Oh Goodness almost two years ago. Wow it's been that long. Time sure flies when you're having fun. Anyway, I was just at home one day looking up Daniel Radcliffe news when I came across SnitchSeeker. I was on it over a month with just news before I came across the sorting hat and wanted to do it, then looked further and found the rping. I wasn't sure rping was for me since I had never done it before, but look at me now. I started just as the train left and I jumped on and haven't looked back. What makes me stick around? You of course *smiles* Honestly everyone, it's been such an amazing experience everyone is great, I've met a ton of people I now call great friends as well as I just love my characters, the plots, and reading all that 's going on.

The RP like the biggest and best interactive story ever *nods enthusiastically* And the SS community is different from anywhere else, we're lucky to have you as part of it. I'd guess you'd call yourself a Harry Potter fan? How did that come about for you?
Well that's actually a funny story. I am *cough* older, so Harry Potter came out my when I was in high school. I said I would never read them and that it wasn't for me. It wasn't until many years later, actually 2005 when I was student teaching in a second grade catholic school. My first day I was handed the book and told this is what we are reading, would you like to jump in and start. I jumped in, got hooked, and now every year I get my second graders hooked on the books as well.

That's awesome! You're spreading the Potter!love one classroom at a time! Which is your favourite Potter book?
I'm raising little Potter fans as well so don't worry I share my Potter love where ever I go. Oh books, I would have to say my all time favorite would be Prisoner of Azkaban. After reading all of them that is the one I like to go back to. I feel like that is where more of the personalities grew in the characters as well as the action.

Future SS members! Which character is your favourite in the series? And why?
Well I love them all, but if I have to pick I think anyone that knows my first Rping Character could guess it. Want to try? Oh I won't make you, it's Minerva McGonagall. I just love her. She is an amazing professor and tries to be so mean, but she really is caring and looking out for the students. Of course she is tough and can hold her ground. So she is everything you want in a character and more.

You must enjoy getting to find out more about her via Pottermore then, since we've been lucky to get a whole lot of her backstory from JKR.
Yes it's been great to learn more about her. I love that we can find the back stories now on many of the characters.

How do you feel about the Harry Potter movies in regard to how they've been adapted from the books? Are there things you wish had been included?
Oh *shakes head* where do I begin. I enjoy the movies, don't get me wrong. My son loves the first two, but so much I feel was left out of some of the movies. Maybe I'm just picky and some things are small details, like dobby not being played in all the movies that he should have made appearances in or Snape dying in a different place, but that's just me. I think they did a fantastic job on Prisoner of Azkaban and Deathly Hallows, but the rest just needed a bit more.

Which is your favourite Harry Potter movie? And which one is your least favourite?
My favorite is Prisoner of Azkaban, like I said I feel that was the one they did the best at first, plus it had most of my favorite parts in it. I just really got into that one, but the last two are a close second. I cry through Deathly Hallows everytime. My least favorite has to be Goblet of Fire, I don't know why. The book and the movie just drove me crazy.The other movie I struggle with is Order of the Phoenix, I felt so much was left out and they did not do a good job with Sirius's death.

If JKR decided to venture into the Wizarding World again and write some more books, what would you like to see her write about? Marauders? Next Gen? Founders? Something new? What would you like to see?
I would love anything she wrote if it meant going back to Hogwarts, but I have thought about this so many times and how it could be played out. I would love to see her do a story about Teddy Lupin. See how he grew up and things like that. I feel she could easily find a new villian, but I never thought of the Founders. Now that you mention that...I would be interested in seeing how everything came to be. That is an awesome thought.

Bahaha these are Tegz's bus thoughts. Also good for hanging about in waiting rooms or when you can't sleep at night. Okay, so We know you like Potter stuff, what other fandoms would you say you're a part of?
Well *thinks* I think one is obvious with my Bazinga.. I am totally addicted to Big Bang Theory, I'm a huge Xmen fan, and my latest has to be Nikita, have you seen it? It has Aaron Stanford in it. You should check it out, but you might know him better as Ethan on SS..

It also happens to have Aspen in it *nods* my character's sister. Its so weird to see things on TV and see them in relation to SSRPG charries. Do you watch a lot of television then?
YES it does.. I love her character on Nikita and I love Aspen on SS. Oh TV.. I hate to admit that, but yes I am a TV person. I have many TV shows as well as movies I like to watch all the time.

Give us a list. Top ten tv shows according to Ali. Go.
Oh goodness.. If I had to give 10 shows on right now, not reruns.. 1. Big Bang Theory 2. Nikita 3. Two Broke Girls 4. Mike and Molly 5. Duck Dynasty 6. Dog the Bounty Hunter 7. Gator Boys 8. Anger Management 9. How I met your Mother 10. Glee. Now if I had to give a few reruns Fresh Prince, Yes Dear, and My so Called Life would be at the top of those.

So much to watch, so little time Same again, but top ten movies. GO.
Oh haven't you heard, I have an infant so I don't sleep much. Well that's easy 1. All the Xmen 2. All the Harry Potter 3. Clueless 4. All American Pies . 5. Shrek 6. Despicable Me 7. The Proposal 8. Pitch Perfect 9. Sex and the City 10. Confessions of a shopaholic

Cheater, all Potter and All X-men I'll give you that though. Your kids are obviously going to grow up watching the best possible stuff. Now we are at the part of the interview when things get a little random. Are you ready for random?
'm always ready for random...

Good! *Stares* what is your favourite direction?
*blinks* direction... Like as in North, South, East, or West? Well ummm... wow I've never been asked that before. *thinks* I would have to say South. Being from the Northern part of the States I love going South.

If you could name a constellation, what would you call it?
Oh no not astronomy *looks for Pixie* I would have to say Cassiopeia, because that one just sticks in my head.

When was the last time you went swimming?
Last summer at a hotel that we were staying at when we went to Universal Studios. I'm not much of a shorts or swim suit person..

What is the square root of awesome?
Hahaha you of course..

If you could give a new SSer one piece of advice, what would it be?
To enjoy themselves. Have fun with it no matter what. Plus if you have questions don't be afraid to ask there is always someone nice on line at anytime of the day willing to help out.

That is gooooood advice *nods* And now we're going to play some word association. I say a word and you say the first thing that pops into your head! You ready for this?
oh.. ummm let me get my thinking cap on.. This makes me nervous, but GO NOW

We're on the home stretch. There's this thing we do around here that we haven't managed to do for a while but you're the one that gets it again for the first time in a few months *coughs significantly* One of our former Members of the Month has a question for you to answer. Kerri wanted to know: "What is 'reality' to you?"
*chuckles* Thanks Kerri... This is hard, reality.. *thinks* Well that depends is it reality in general or my reality. Reality in general I would say anything that makes someone happy and makes them enjoy life. My reality is my children, husband, teaching, and my wonderful friends I get to talk to all the time on here. *small smile* I hope I answered that alright Kerri.

Hehe. And now its your turn to ask a question for the next MOTM to answer. Go ahead.
Oh that's hard.. *thinks* How about.. If you could go back to one moment in time, what would it be?

Perfect! Well that about wraps things up, is there anything you want to say to our readers?
Well of course I could say a lot more, but you're all probably getting fidgety reading and not typing so I'll make it short. Just again have a great time RPing and if you ever want to RP look me up! Tegz thank you so much for this awesome opportunity I've had a great time.

So have I! You're a fantastic interviewee. And don't forget your shiny MOTM crown *hands it over*
*takes it* Oh it's so pretty and shiny. *puts it on* I hope it looks alright.
