I know that this response is a little late, but because I have been soooooooooooo, busy lately, I tried to do all five of the five day activitys in one day, today. Know about my exceptinic(sorry for the misspelled word)letter. I decide to try to make my letter as normal, but also as crazy as I could and deliver my letter as normal, but as crazy as I could. I first wrote a letter to myself and cut my letter in four halfs, one for each house and than I had cut up each square to make a puzzle shape letter, ending up with 4 pieces. Don’t worry, I write a side note on a extra piece of paper just in case I had forgotten by tomorrow what my plan was. Next was my decision on how to deliver my letter and with the help of my friend, I lefted my toy owl outside in one of the trees, in our yard and thoughout the night(since my friend is homeschooled and really doesn’t have to go to bed until she wants to)my friend had promised to keep an eye out for any steallers of either the owl or the letter. Tomorrow when I open my letter, I will hopeful be surprised, but if I remember what I was doing and think about, the night before I will try my best to act surprise, for recieving your hogwarts letter is just one more step close to actully be at hogwarts and I really hope to go to hogwarts one day(hint, hint)!!!

I invited myself to Made of Awesome Academy for Nerdfighting Young People.

as soon as i read this i grabbed a piece of paper and wrote a very…. shall we say different looking letter. I’m sending it to myself, but making it so it’ll take a while for it to actually get to me.

That way, when i get it it’ll be more of a surprise.

HAH! I had no “inner Dursley” about this activity. I literally LEAPED out of my seat and grabbed my notebook (which I use to write my NOVEL) to invite myself to my OWN imaginary school!

“Dearest Amandanette,
We cordially invite you to spend the next ten years of your life developing your talents and strengths at the Academy of Creativity and Excellence (ACE). Through your steadfastness in the belief of being a unique individual, you have, as a result, FOUNDED this school. Instead of trying to fit in or worrying about what the “cool” people (ahem… dumbheads) at your school would think, you have striven to create a UTOPIA for people like you – nerds, freaks, dorks, weirdoes, bookworms, geeks, beatniks, outcasts, and anyone else who does not “fit in”. We recognize and adore your attitude – when others would have been embarrassed, you CROWN yourself with creativity! Such haughtiness we have never seen in anyone else.”

This is such and amazing idea! i still fell soo good even after doing this excercise! its makes me relized that no matter how much we “potter nerds” are made fun of we still get so much more than just enjoyment out of the books and the culture that surounds it!
For my letter i kept it simple i was invited to Hogwarts…it finally fells like my letter came!
Thank you Andrew for being AMAZING… once again!

I’m still wondering where I should be invited to as well… I’m sort of thinking I want to go to Asteroid B-612. =]

This sounds like a ton of fun! I can’t wait to write my own letter!

But I’m torn as to which magical place to be invited to…. Wrockstock or Unlimited Enthusiasm Expo!
