For all four houses, list traits that would make you NOT fit into the house (opposite of Amy's question), again, be thorough, etc. Hufflepuff: I am not incredibly patient, especially when it's because of someone elses stupidity (and I'm probably being a bit hypocrytical here, but I don't care. xD) I tend to snap, or make a snide comment probably hurting that persons feelings. I also believe that Hufflepuffs often put others needs before their own. This is something that I definatley know is hardly me at all. Ever since I was younger I have always looked after myself first. My dad once told me a story about how when I was younger and my sister has just been born my parents said to me something like "Now Marianna, you have a little baby sister now, you'll have to share your things with her now." I replied something along the lines of "I haven't had to share with anyone for 4 years, you'll have to give me another 4 years to get used it it". Basically, I help myself first. Slytherin: One thing that I don't have is control. While a Slytherin may weigh down their options before doing something, I'm more of a type to just rush into things and think about the consequences later. If someone were to bully me, I'd probably loose control of my emotions and fight back, whereas a Slytherin I think would mostly try to avoid confrontation, instead getting them back in a more sly way such as humiliation or revenge in a different form. I am not as calculating as Slytherins seem to be. While they sit and plan about how would be the best way to get under this persons skin, or to get back at that person, I'm more of a heat of the moment, say-the-most-hurtful-thing-that-pops-into-my-head kind of person. I don't really mediate on being hurtful.
