Time for Edition Nine

We considered an advice column once, but the problem was actually getting people to send us their problems, they'd like the option to stay anonymous but we knew who they were because obviously they'd be PM'ing us.

Also i had an idea last night, what if we have a dedicated sports team? Put someone in charge as Sports Editor and then have a team underneath them who cover certain sports, like for example:

Sports Editor - Gemma
Quidditch Reporter - Gemma
Football Reporter - Dipstick
American Football Reporter - Dolce
Rugby Reporter - Princess Holly
F1 Reporter - Etta

Etc etc etc etc.

That way just about everything gets covered and if it would make people we could rotate the sports so everyone covers something. As Sports Editor though, that person would be responsible for keeping the writers motivated and on time with Deadline.

I figured of that worked then we could have a Features Editor who could control the interviews etc.

OH! We Still need someone to do the Opinion's Feature!

*sneaks in*

Oh! Lookit that! Someone left the back door open!

xD

Anyway, I'm back and being entirely cheeky marching in like this uninvited, but I'd love to help out if it's needed and cheeky is my third middle name after all.

So ya know, kick me out or assign me an article, either option is fine with me. xD

OH yeah! Streamies do the Opinion feature! You always made me laugh with them!

Hey, I am here again. I will do whatever... hmm. I still can not think of what to do though. haha.

EDIT! I can do something with fanfics! haha. I have become addicted recently... or good harry Potter RP sites to check out... like, serious ones. haha. not that HE isn't serious, but its not just a RP site. just an idea.

Lol i was just gonna say June does the Fanfic recs, its her speciality just like the RP interview thingy is yours stephys.

Katherine if you're struggling to find something to do why not have a look at past editions and see what is missing, we don't have a Fashion section anymore, we don't have a "showbiz" section, there's loads of stuff you can do, just use your brain and think outside the box.

OK sure I'll do an opinion feature. :D

What shall it be?

- Bertie Bott's Beans vs. Sugar Quills
- Many Small Gifts vs. One Big Gift
- Messy, Scattered, Wildly Colorful Holiday Decorations vs. Neat, Organized, Color-Coordinated Decorations
- How the Great They, Them and The Man Don't Actually Exist Outside of Everyone's Heads
- Parallel Universes - Do We WANT to Know?
- Best Movies to Watch During the Holidays, and Which You Should Avoid
- Ice Skating vs. Sledding
- Owls vs. Floos

I can go on and on, really.

- Listeners vs. Chatterboxes
- Giants vs. Goblins: Which Is More of a Danger?

OK, OK, pick one. Somebody pick one. Please.

- How To Tell Your Other Half That You Never Really Loved Them
- How To Finally Profess Your Love to the Crush You've Had Since Forever
- Popping the Question on New Year's Eve - Timelessly Sweet or Cliche?
- Is It So Bad, Really, to Buy Your Boyfriend a Nice Sweater?

...

...

- Would It Be Better for the World to Suddenly End, Or Would It Be Better If We Had Some Advance Warning?
- How Many More Years Will Earth Survive?
- Organized Messiness or Messy Organization - Is There a Difference?

Sure, I'll do that one. I'm gonna go ahead and open a thread so that everyone can contribute their opinions and then I'll cobble them all together. xD

DEADLINE........................................................21th January 2009

RELEASE DATE ................................................ 31st January 2009.

Enjoy!

Streamies has already started on the Opinions, the thread is open already for everyone to take part in. We also have an old Opinion which needs turned into an article though if you want to try taking that on.

Quote :

Maybe I can talk to Rai about coming up with a anonymous identity (like when Ame was Gossip Girl- not that that worked out, but the concept was good) that people can send their questions to.

How about getting people to write into the Hogwarts Pensieve username and having it as "random rantings" where they can say anything they want or something like a "Niggle me Niggles" where they send in things that really annoy them, if you want to do that i can give you access to that account i've never seen gossip girl although i do get the general idea of him/her/it and i think we had something like it in one edition where we wrote things like "SS was spotted wearing platform shoes and a wig in the potions room yesterday at 7:45pm." we could try something like that again.

And .............. if you want to right about Obama's inauguration (not that i have any idea what that is since i'm English) then okay, but if you could, try to write it so people like me (those who are dumb, or ignorant, or just not American) would actually understand it.

Also does anyone have any suggestions for a CD to review? I refuse to review Britney point blank, sorry but i won't be able to keep it nice because i have heard some of her new album and its pants. And the only other bands i know that have released CDs are not known world wide so they've been ruled out.

Stephy: Yes, I'll do my fanfic recs and a book review and my fictional interview thing xD.

Twilight Soundtrack out - its a soundtrack not an actual bands album which is what i'm looking for.

Interviewing Sharon/Amy - Turn it into 20 Words of Less on Stepping Down and i'll add it to the paper. We've had interviews with them in every edition bar one since the pensieve began.


Okay guys time is running out!

You can probably get Rai to review Britney. Though it would be biased. xD

Hey hey, here's a tiny poem about Elfie and Amy stepping down and Rai and Rigby stepping up.

--

Elfie and Amy
Retiring from HE
Not goodbye at all
Still here as admin
Guiding Rigby and Rai
Running things smoothly
Worries and concerns
Soothed by R&R

--

Anyway, I dropped in to finish the opinions feature so that's what I'll go do!

Psh I'd so not be biased, it's sooooooooo not pants and now I want a Britney review *pouts*

I like the R & R, streamsy!

Yeah, that part's nice, isn't it? I think the beginning could maybe use some work. Here's the improved version:

Elfie and Amy
No need for goodbye
Admins they remain
Guiding Rigby and Rai
Running HE smoothly
Any worries and concerns
Soothed by R&R

Urgh i do the reviews and i refuse point blank to do a Britney review, plus, Rai would kill me.

Loved your Opinions article btw Streamies

Thanks! It was fun to write. xD

Well then, i guess that is me told. It's like a military coup.

*deletes her review*

*leaves*

oh, well I would love to do the showbiz article. haha. I could do a review/preview of awards shows coming up, the winners, and the nominees.
is that okay with you guys?

and what about a Top Ten article... we just added that to our paper at school. Its different, funny things, like "Top Ten things not to get your sweetheart for christmas" and "Top Ten ways to show the best school spirit.". Once, we even did "Top Ten ways to be a wizard" just for fun. haha.

How about a Top Ten Way to do something which is needing done anyway on the Paper?

And did i say the Deadline was 26th? I could have sworn it said 21st.

*checks*

Hmm well, i meant 21st. Good Luck everyone.
