Harry Potter Tag

In case you didn't know - I'm a HUGE Potterhead. I live and breathe Harry Potter. I occasionally dream that I'm helping defeat He Who Must Not Be Named with the others... in front of a grocery store. That's not the point. The point is that I was tagged to do this IN DECEMBER and I'm just doing it now. I'm ASHAMED of myself. Really. But as they say - it's better late than never; so, here we go. 


WHAT HOUSE ARE YOU IN?

I did this a couple of times on Pottermore and I got Ravenclaw both times. It took me a minute to accept it, but now I'm full of Ravenclaw pride!

WHAT IS YOUR PATRONUS?

That is a very good question. I stopped playing Pottermore when that came out and I want to know the official answer. I will go see. I have a feeling it will be something like a rabbit or a chipmunk or some other woodland creature.. I got a badger. Which I don't really find very fitting.

WHAT IS YOUR WAND?

Okay so it looks like my old Pottermore account doesn't exist anymore so I need to redo this. I believe before it was a holly wand. Apparently now it's Cypress wood with a dragon heartstring core, 11 ½" and slightly springy flexibility. The little paragraph about it says: "Cypress wands are associated with nobility. The great medieval wandmaker, Geraint Ollivander, wrote that he was always honoured to match a cypress wand, for he knew he was meeting a witch or wizard who would die a heroic death. Fortunately, in these less blood-thirsty times, the possessors of cypress wands are rarely called upon to lay down their lives, though doubtless many of them would do so if required. Wands of cypress find their soul mates among the brave, the bold and the self-sacrificing: those who are unafraid to confront the shadows in their own and others’ natures." I don't know if that's true about me or not. 

WHAT WOULD YOUR BOGGART BE?

I really don't know. I'm scared of a lot of things like grasshoppers, clowns, but I don't know about my greatest fear. Maybe I'd be like Mrs Weasley and it would be someone I care about dying.

WHAT POSITION WOULD YOU PLAY IN QUIDDITCH?

Oh geez. I'm not a very athletic person at all, so I don't think I'd make the team. Being a seeker would be super cool, but that's a whole of pressure. Either a Seeker or a Chaser - definitely not a Keeper. I'd be such a failure at that!

WOULD YOU BE A PURE BLOOD, HALF BLOOD OR MUGGLE BORN?

I would think that I'd be a Half-blood.

WHAT JOB WOULD YOU WANT AFTER GRADUATING HOGWARTS?

Definitely a Ministry job. Maybe not an Auror because I'm too wimpy, but something else in the law enforcement?

WHICH OF THE DEATHLY HALLOWS WOULD YOU CHOOSE?

I've actually thought about this a lot and I think I would go for the cloak. The stone would be amazing to see people I've lost, however, I think it would be very depressing. I'm not someone who's all about power and I'd be scared of someone trying to kill me for the wand, so definitely the cloak. You could do so much with it!

FAVOURITE BOOK?

Oooh that's tough - I love them all! HBP was really intense, as was the last one. I love the 3rd and the 4th because the plot really moves forward with those two.

LEAST FAVOURITE BOOK?

Again, tough. Maybe Chamber of Secrets? I'd say the first one, but that's very introductory. The second one wasn't as gripping.

FAVOURITE FILM?

Prisoner of Azkaban. Hands down. It's the film that I find it the closest to the novel.

LEAST FAVOURITE FILM?

Chamber of Secrets? The basilisk scared me so much when I was younger, that I'd be anxious to go to the washroom. Overall, it could have been done better? Again the first I didn't LOVE, but it was the first so I can't really say bad about it. There were some moments in all of the films that I wish were different (AKA VOLDY'S DEATH! I'M STILL RAGING)

FAVOURITE CHARACTER?

Call me cliche, but Harry. 

LEAST FAVOURITE CHARACTER?

Umbridge is nasty. I also don't fancy Dumbledore too much at all.

FAVOURITE TEACHER AT HOGWARTS?

Lupin because he was a very good teacher. I also admire McGonagall - while she was stern, she was also a very good teacher and very brave.

LEAST FAVOURITE TEACHER?

Umbridge, duh. Lockhart too, he was useless and a fraud.

DO YOU HAVE ANY UNPOPULAR OPINIONS ABOUT THE SERIES?

Of course. I don't think Harry and Ginny should've ended up together. Luna should have ended up with either Neville or Harry. And part of me wishes Hermione was with Viktor. 

IF YOU COULD SAVE ONE CHARACTER FROM THE FINAL BATTLE, WHO WOULD YOU SAVE?

That's hard. So many died. I would really love to save Lupin, but I think I would save Fred. His death hit me hard and I wish they had done it justice in the final film.

So, there you have it! I would love to know your answers to this tag!
I tag all you Potterheads reading this!

You guys can expect more HP content in the future from me!
