Pottermore.....

Anyone that knows me well knows I am a huge Harry Potter fan. What's hilarious is that for years I have thought I was a Hufflepuff. And the first version of Pottermore actually sorted me into that house. However, last summer while in California I was sorted into Slytherin (by the sorting hat, while visiting Warner Brothers Studios). Tonight, I decided to log into Pottermore to be sorted into Ilvermony (the American Wizarding school)....however I had to register and decided to be re-sorted and have my wand chosen! Well, I am a Slytherin! Who knew! 
Also..I now rock an Ash Wood Wand!

Ash

The ash wand cleaves to its one true master and ought not to be passed on or gifted from the original owner, because it will lose power and skill. This tendency is extreme if the core is of unicorn. Old superstitions regarding wands rarely bear close examination, but I find that the old rhyme regarding rowan, chestnut, ash and hazel wands (rowan gossips, chestnut drones, ash is stubborn, hazel moans) contains a small nugget of truth. Those witches and wizards best suited to ash wands are not, in my experience, lightly swayed from their beliefs or purposes. However, the brash or over-confident witch or wizard, who often insists on trying wands of this prestigious wood, will be disappointed by its effects. The ideal owner may be stubborn, and will certainly be courageous, but never crass or arrogant.

And Check out the common room!
