Well hello there! Welcome to MANpril! My name is Kelvin (yep....like the degree scale), and I'm one of your mods for this month's Meet __________ section.
I've been a member of Snitchseeker for almost 6 years now after being dragged into it by my friend Alyssa (who no longer visits the site, unfortunately). She knew I loved Harry Potter and forced strongly encouraged me to join. Five and a half years later, here I am!
When I first joined, I didn't really do much. I was sorted into Ravenclaw and made a character (who I didn't play for a while) and that was about it. But after about 7 months on the site, I became really interested in the role play (which, at the time, was...oh gosh, what term was that? It was the term where Hogwarts was taken over by Pierre...was that Baby Cries?) Anyway, in my time as a student, I played Ryan Lee, who was apparently a Ravenclaw stud.  I played quidditch for a few terms and captained the Ravenclaw team for two terms until I was hired to the school staff to teach Charms (I was also the editor/graphics guru/adviser to the SS School Yearbook for a while). I taught Charms for a year IRL, and decided to step down because I was getting too busy with college.
I now currently moderate the Weasley's Wizard Wheezes (Games), Madame Malkin's (Graphics and Art) forums and the Social Groups feature, and I sponsor the Nymphadora Tonks Fan Club.
As for my life away from SS, I'm a 21 year-old (22 in 14 days!) university student from California studying Psychology and Social Behavior. I play taiko (Japanese drumming) and volleyball and uhhhhhhhhhhh ask to find out more?
Ask away! (And remember to follow all SS Rules) |

2. Hunger Games? 1. It was sad, but they were pretty good! I definitely have my complaints, but I'm glad they were made.
2. What about them? Quote:

(Ps-Happy Birthday!) Thanks! I'd have to say that the odd books were my favorites. SS got everything started and got me hooked on the magic, PoA introduced some of my favorite characters and started to take the plot on a darker path, OoTP was really heart-wrenching, and DH was just EPIC. Amazing. Quote:

And what is your favorite HP OTP?

1.) Term 16 = Baby Cries.
2.) "Ravenclaw stud" =
3.) Why haven't I been in here to ask you a question yet?

When I RPed, I really loved that. But I don't really have the time for it anymore. I have always really loved the graphics shops. I love looking and making. Quote:

Happy Birthday! (I hope I'm not late/early) 
1) How often are you on SS?
2) Who do you ship more; Ron/Hermione or Harry/Hermione?

1) I'd say I'm on pretty much every day, but for how long every day varies.
2) I already kind of answered this, but I'll say it again - I'm not much of a shipper. The concept never really appealed to me (I'd rather just read to see what happens) but I prefer R/Hr to H/Hr. The latter just doesn't make sense.

Hi Kelvin,
Thought I'd add my own two questions 
1. Which Harry Potter soundtrack to you like the most...
AND 2. If you could marry any character in the HP series (doesn't matter if they married someone else in the books) who would it be?
I just have one more question: what would be your advice to someone who's just starting out on SS?

Anyway, while I had that username, a lot of people here used to call me "Cake" or some variation of that, so when I decided to change my username, I wanted to make it something similar, but different. So I went with cake.ninja, but then Ashliecat (Hermione_Loves_Ron) told me to put a K at the end of ninja for my name (Kelvin), and thus cake.ninjak was born. Quote:

I just have one more question: what would be your advice to someone who's just starting out on SS? 1. To be honest, the all sound the same to me. :x
2. Cho Chang! She gets WAAAAAYYYYY too much hate.
3. Explore! Have fun! Find what you like and dive in head-first.  Be open to meeting new people and new opinions. Quote:

12) What is a 5? Ooh that's cool though. Did you see the Grand Canyon?
73) I think a 5 is only half a 10. Not much of a looker.
