April Results are posted in the Great Hall!

APRIL RESULTS are posted in the Great Hall, but Week 4 Prefects and April Quidditch Captain are being announced right here! Prefects this week are Amandapratt and Letty_c! Great work, girls! You set a great example for us to work harder. :) April's Quidditch Captain is Lhawkins1975, losing 5.8% of her weight this month!…

On time! Yes! Here are the April Results! Hufflepuff wins the House Cup! Ravenclaw wins the Quidditch Cup! Head Girls are: Cowsstealmythong with 5140 House Points for the month, and Kelsue35 with 3875 House Points for the month! Congrats, ladies! Amazing work! Great work to all the Houses, you all make me proud. Don't…

I have a bittersweet announcement to make. I've been debating this for quite a few months now, but today I've decided I have to do what's best for me. I need to step down as Headmistress (probably as Head of Gryffindor, too). It's become more time consuming with the issues with other Houses on top of everything to allow me…

Happy Anniversary of the Day Voldemort Kicked the Bucket! Also, RIP half the Wizarding World. Let's have a moment of Wrock for them all: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kg1JfwCpjVw

SPEW is what some Houses use as the name of points for posting daily in your Common Room. Check with your Head of House if it's not clear whether your House uses this or how it's scored.

Ok, then! Good luck! :)

These are REALLY good! I'm definitely going to adapt some of these. Thanks!

Good call! I also really love Are You Being Served. And 80s sitcoms. Full House is to the 80s as Friends is to the 90s to me. It just never gets old.

Friends Parks & Rec New Girl Big Bang Theory The Office 30 Rock There's others, but those are what's airing right now that I love (plus Friends, because Friends is forever).

I'll be posting mine tonight! Don't be scared, no one will judge you :)

Mmm, that's the only real reason I want an ice cream maker. I like sorbet better than ice cream most of the time.

Also, I need more NEWT ideas! I'm at a loss, so we just keep rotating the same 15 ones.

I'm cutting it a little close, but here is the May blog! (The Prizoner Azkaban game will be up later, I promise!) http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/bronwenhilary/view/may-gryffindor-owls-newts-251002 This week's challenges are: WEEK 1: (Starting after check-in between 4/27-4/30 and ending with check-in between 5/4-5/7) OWL…

Let me know how you like the game! :)

I also want to make a personal announcement of sorts. I'm cutting down my friends list to make it more manageable for me. I've decided to delete some of you that I haven't connected with as much in lieu of making coming to the Common Room to talk with you a bigger priority. I've also decided to give you all a check-in…

Also very late, but here's Week 3's Prefects! BrnldGirl and Kelsue35! Great work, ladies! As usual :)

Ugh, I'm behind this week! Sorry about that, guys! Here's the week 3 results: Congrats to Ravenclaw for winning this week's Quidditch Match! Looks like Gryffindor is in the lead so far for the House Cup, and Slytherin is just BARELY in the lead over Ravenclaw for the Quidditch Cup. Great job to everyone! Let's finish this…

Sorry this is so late, but the Chamber of Secrets Workout Game links are on the blog! The May blog will be posted sometime today (with a link reposted here). Here is the (very late) April Week 4 challenges: WEEK 4: (Starting after check-in between 4/20-4/23 and ending with check-in between 4/27-4/30) OWL (exercise): Harry…

Yeah, it's not really his fault you work that shift. I can sympathize that it's annoying, but 9am is fair game. The middle of the night stuff is not cool, though.

My brother has one right now. Says he uses it every day. "It's ironic AND useful" he says.

I'd be like a moth to a flame...

I think this is a huge part of their problem. A lot of people want it to be more active, but think it's my job as headmistress to manage those things. I personally intended for the HoHs to manage their Houses (because I have a House to manage, too!) and the Headmistress is just the overarching organizing figure. Just like…

I've been watching the spreadsheets, too. Hufflepuff's in the lead because the few members they have participating are big earners, so the math works in their favor. I suggested to the Hufflepuff and Slytherin HoHs to start sending reminder messages and see how much involvement comes back. It depends on how that works out…

My exact thought! And the third one seems kind of bleh. It's not doing much for you, either.

So, how do you all feel about me arbitrarily resorting people equally into the Houses? It wouldn't be as much about whether our personalities match our Houses, but about a fair competition. This is how it first started way back when, but there were a lot of bummed out people. I'm not sure what the best solution is yet. If…

The characteristics of your wand is EXACTLY why I don't think it's that weird you were put in Slytherin. You weren't put there for your 'bad' characteristics, because you don't have many! :)
