    I made the train with time to spare! Already settled in to Ravenclaw and ready for start of term tomorrow!!

    I cut it pretty close, and I still have a lot of unpacking and last minute holiday homework to finish up, but I'm excited for start of term, too!

    *The Weasley twins are making it difficult to concentrate in the Gryffindor Common Room ;)

    Our geekiness is pretty outstanding!

    I'm about halfway caught up on things, I'll just have to get up early and ask Hermione to help me finish before breakfast in the morning.

    Good luck to everyone on your classes ;)

    She may have her house closed already. Try messaging her personally and see what she says.

    I tried that, got no response. The common room hasn't been posted in for a couple of days either. Oh well, who knows, when I get my Pottermore email (finally!) I might not even be in Slytherin (although I might cry if that's the case, I have too much Slytherin merch!) I just really wanted to be involved in a HP challenge!

    You're still welcome to join another House if you still want to participate :( I'm really sorry you're not getting a response from her!

    Wow, that was a bumpy train ride! Wow, look at all those little boats in the water. I have to get on one of those too? Wait, look... I see it.... It's Hogwarts! We made it :-)

    Are any of the houses still accepting new students? I would really love to be involved, I'm a huge HP fan. Keeping my fingers crossed for late enrollment (where is a time turner when you need one).

    Ravenclaw is and so is Gryffindor. Not sure about the other two.

    I think the Head of Slytherin house has closed her Common Room, but you're welcome to post there or join one of the other 3 Houses :) Post in the common rooms. There's links to them in the second link in my signature near the bottom.

    Salazar Slytherin was always picky about who he would accept. Maybe they think you are Muggle-born.

    Good luck!

    She's helping me make mine! I'm so disorganized, but she should have me sorted out by tomorrow night :)

    Hello my dearest! I finally received my letter and have been sorted into Ravenclaw... I am still adjusting to the thought. I guess I am smarter than I am braver. LOL

    ~Not sure if I should switch houses here, is that even allowed?



    I have been slacking, I am still on a mental holiday. I need to get things in order so that I can get on the ball with the weight loss. I have at least managed not to gain any.

    Heart You!

    For Pottermore? Dude, the exact same thing happened to me yesterday! I thought I could maybe be a Ravenclaw when I first read HP, but I decided my personality was WAY more Gryffindor-like. The questions the Sorting Hat asked me were more in line with my skills and interests (which are very Ravenclaw-like) so that's where the Hat put me. It bummed me out, but it will still be fun :)

    As far as switching Houses, I suppose you're welcome to, but don't feel you HAVE to. For one, I'd be sad to see you leave Gryffindor, and for two, consider this your way of negotiating with the Hat to put you where YOU want to be ;)

    LOL... I have been seeing from a lot of people on FB that this kind of thing happened to... I am not switching houses. Gonna stick with you guys. I will just be a Ravendor!
