Senior Year

So, I just went back to school yesterday, and I had a lot of catching up to do because of the whole going to Canada the day that school started ordeal. I had to explain my situation to all my teachers and people were confused to find me suddenly in their class. But, it felt good to see everyone again and to get back into the swing of things. I have kind of a bad schedule when it comes to proximity of my classes. It's like when I was a freshman and I was running to get to my classes. Except this time around, I don't care as much. Art is going to be significantly different than last year. Aside from not having Simar with me, it is also a much larger class with most of the students not in AP. It is irksome. And, it is right before lunch, so I am super tired and hungry.
Anyway, I like my classes A LOT better when they are AP or Honors classes with only seniors. THOSE are my people. I can't STAND the people in regular classes. Also, I am considering dropping Astronomy. It's my first class so that would mean that I could come to school later and not have to wake up so early.
Also, I REALLY want to get into Pottermore! I registered on the second day, but I still haven't gotten my email! I can't wait till I'm in, though! It shall be fantastic :)
So, recently, I've been really excited about college, even though I still don't know which school I want to go to, although I've had ideas. I know that I want to go to the Pacific Northwest if at all possible. But, I think I need to retake the SAT to improve my score. The average for a school I'm interested in is 1800-2030, which I don't quite make....

I am in Canada

Harry Potter survey...

Because I can.

How old were you when you read your first HP book?

13 I think. I am ashamed to say that I didn't read Harry Potter until high school. I regret it. But, luckily, Aley forced me to read them. And thank god she did.

How old were you when you saw your first HP movie?

Hm... I'm not sure... I'm pretty sure I saw the first one in theaters, though, so I guess that would make me 7 or 8.

How did you hear about HP?

Well, my brother read Philosopher's Stone when it was first released because he was infinitely cooler than me, so, via him I suppose.

What was your favorite book?

DEFINITELY Prisoner of Azkaban.

What was your favorite movie?

Prisoner of Azkaban. For Sure. Alfonso Curion wins.

Who is your favorite HP character?

Snape.

Who is your least favorite HP character?

Umbridge? Peter Pettigrew?

Who is your favorite Weasley?

Ron.

Who is your least favorite Weasley?

:( I guess I have to say Percy, even though he did redeem himself...

What was your favorite Weasley Twin prank?

When they left school in Order of the Phoenix.

Who is your favorite Professor?

Lupin. I would say Snape, but I would HATE having him as a professor, so, Lupin :)

Would you have joined the Order of the Phoenix or the Death Eaters?

The Order. Duh.

Who is your favorite Order member?

Remus and Tonks. And the Weasleys.

Who is your favorite Death Eater?

Snape.

Who is your favorite Marauder?

Lupin.

Which of the Deathly Hallows would you choose?

The Cloak.

Have you read Quidditch Throughout the Ages?

Yup.

Would you play Quidditch professionally?

Nah.

Have you read Tales of Beedle the Bard?

Yup.

What was your favorite short story from Beedle?

Hm.... Tale of the Three Brothers, I guess. I mean, I guess the one where the wizard cut our his heart is good too... don't quite remember it...

What house is your favorite house?

Hufflepuff, they’re just so chill, haha. (wow, i didn't even write that, the person who did this before me did, but I TOTALLY AGREE and would write the SAME thing...O_o)

What house is your least favorite house?

Slytherine, I guess, although they are all awesome.

Owl, Cat, Rat or Toad?

Owl, fore sure. They are the most usefull, it seems.

Prefect or Quidditch Captain?

Psh... Prefect, definitely.

Would you enter the Triwizard Tournament?

HA! No.

What would have been your favorite task?

None of them.. they're scary. Although, the last one, IS the best, if all had gone smoothly and according to plan.

Which Divination Professor; Trelawney or Firenze?

Trelawney. She's crazy, but I still love her. And she reminds me an awful lot of a certain teacher I have in real life...

Auror, Unspeakable or Healer?

Probably Unspeakable actually. I can't see myself as an auror or a healer...

Who was your favorite DADA professor?

Lupin.

Who was your least favorite?

Umbridge, of course.

What would be one of your Horcruxes?

I would never have a horcrux... seriously, if people haven't learned their lesson by now about horcruxes and dork magic, then I am sad for them. (and, yes, that IS my way of not answering the question because I don't know what I would use.)

Did you get into Pottermore?

Yup.

What day did you get in?

The second day.

What house do you want to be in?

Hufflepuff. I legitimately AM one and I think they have a bad reputation for no reason. And that makes me sad. Hufflepuffs should be proud!

Have you gotten your Welcome email yet?

IF I HAD, DO YOU REALLY THINK I'D BE DOING THIS?!?!?!?!??!?!?

Alright, that's all. Sorry I was so boring and such.
IDK if I will be able to blog the next few days as I am going to Vancouver, so... Yeah.

So

Today, I woke up rather late and didn't do much. Aley came over and we just watched TV and painted. And then I had dinner. And that is literally all I've done today. I'm still pretty tired from my surgery that I had on Friday. And it's Tuesday. Yeah... Anyway. I don't really want to write about my plans for the next few days because then there will be no point in writing about the actual events when they happen. So, I shall refrain from doing that. I do, however, still have to finish my summer homework assignments. I just have to read an article for Econ and take notes on it. It shouldn't be that hard, but I keep putting it off. And I have to study literary terms for English but I'm doing that on Quizlet and it's actually quite enjoyable. OH! Today, I totally managed to get my mom to preorder me a copy of The Fault in Our Stars! That was awesome. Now, if only I can scrape up eight dollars to renew my DeviantART membership for another three months.... that would be great.
Ok, that's pretty much all I've got for today, but, hey! At least I wrote an entry!

Also, my mom doesn't think that Matt Smith is attractive. In fact, she thinks he's ugly.
I don't think we are related.

I'm a fail blogger

I realize that I blog mostly for my own enjoyment, but still. It's been more than a year since I last blogged! Well, at least here... Tumblr doesn't really count.
I know that so much has changed in the last year that I'm not even going to attempt to try to get caught up. But I DO want to start blogging more frequently. I think it helps my writing. Even though I don't consider myself a writer, it would still be nice to improve on my writing and document my life. So, I'm going to try to blog about SOMETHING in my life every day. Let's see how this goes.
Today, I went to Maddie's house for the first time. There were people there I didn't know, so I met new people. Sarah broke the trampoline and I ate mashed potatoes. That is all for today.
Keepin it real.
