What is one trait from each of the houses that you feel you don't possess? Ravenclaw: I don't have the natural ability that most Ravenclaws possess of learning quickly. I learn, and in most cases, once I learn something, I won't forget it, but... in my experience, if I'm learning about something I'm not as interested in... It just goes in one ear, and out the other... Hufflepuff: Selflessness. I like to please others... it makes me happy to know that I was able to help someone, but in the end, I really feel like if helping someone had a negative impact on me, [unless for them it was life or death...] I wouldn't do it... Slytherin: I don't think I'm quite as 'all about me' as a lot of slytherins are... It is very rare that I put myself before others, even if I sometimes want to... I know my answer to the Hufflepuff part of this sounds kind of contradictory to that, and I don't mean to say that I only care if someone is in real trouble, I just mean that in most cases, I put others first, but not to the point where I ignore what I want... ack. does that even make sense?! Gryffindor: I am not reckless, and I am not brave. I don't like to cause trouble, and I don't like to stick my neck out and poke around... I like to figure out riddles and mysteries, and I like to have fun, but if it's doing something illegal [for example, setting off fireworks in someones front yard, or being out late at night] or something that I have the potential to get in trouble for, there's no chance I'll be joining in on the fun...
Which house do you think you belong in? and why? Really, I think I'm a Ravenclaw. I couldn't see myself as a Hufflepuff, I'm not 'soft' enough, and there is no way I could be a Gryffindor, because I'm not spunky. I've been in the Slytherin Common Room for a few months now, and the longer I am there, the less at home I feel. At first, it was fun. I felt like I was awesome for being a snake, and all cool and badass... but I don't think I'm out for the same things a lot of the other snakes are out for... I feel like I have a lot more of a childish sense of humor that a lot of them do, or maybe I'm just missing something... Either way, I almost don't feel comfortable letting out that side of myself... and I don't feel like I should have to hide part of what I am just because I want to be considered one of the 'cool kids'... or whatever. I just feel like Ravenclaw is a more mild Slytherin.. I know they have a ton of differences, but I feel like they are similar enough that I would be able to be my spiteful self AND my goofy self without feeling stupid.
Not that they make me feel stupid... I just... over analyze everything. Even online! >_
