Because we all need a blog post documenting our wand selection and house sorting.

I went into Pottermore fully expecting to be chosen by a holly dragon heartstring wand, and to be sorted into Slytherin. I was totally ready to wrock the green, as I did back in the early Potter days. I kid you not, my MSN name used to be something like .:~*The Death Eater*~:.. God, I loved those squiggly line things back then.

As it turns out, the wand that chose me was rigid, 12 3/4inch, pine, with a -- get this -- phoenix feather core! Though, I admit, I was expecting better than pine, the phoenix feather core outweighs everything. Not only that. After a long trip on Platform Nine and Three-Quarters, I arrived at Hogwarts to be sorted in to Gryffindor!

To be honest, Gryffindor was the last house I was expecting to be sorted. I was about 60/40 with Slytherin and Hufflepuff and would also not have been surprised to be Ravenclaw. But now that I think about it, Gryffindor is perfect. I'm bold as fuck. And I feel like I've been part of it this whole time. Sticking with Harry all these years, I can't help but feel comfortable in Gryffindor. I feel like I could walk past the Fat Lady into the Gryffindor Common Room, and know exactly where I'd sit and cozily read my copy of A History of Magic.

I'm Gryffindor with a phoenix feather wand.

And I'll stick with Harry until the very end. 

I was sick. And a little delirious.

Hi. Sick here.

Blogging while sick. Let's see how this goes. Sjcvoiswhuaewvhwdkvnsudjvbwhiuevhwir. Glad I got that over with. Mostly I just wanted to say hello. I'm still alive. Still working and going to school. Remember that time Josh and I tried to make CircuitBuzz happen? We stopped making videos after a while, but we're hoping to start back up again. This time, without keeping the channel a secret. I hope it at least does as well as WTVlog did, but aiming for higher.

Gonna stop typing now. I'm getting dizzy. Woahhhh.

The one where I go to Pasadena.

I'm not very Pinteresting.

Mac 'n' Cheese

I don't have any photos or video, but I cooked again!  Baked Macaroni and cheese this time. I hadn't planned on making it, until I was at the market and came across canned melted cheddar with the recipe  for Mac 'n' Cheese on the back of the can. I pretty much followed the recipe, but added a few ingredients of my own. It wasn't the most delicious meal, but it got the job done. And since there are no photos or clips, I'll let you know how I made it! In recipe form!

Note: I excluded the measures/portions because I don't believe in that shit. Use whatever amount you want of these ingredients, depending on your taste.

Ingredients:

• Corkscrew pasta
• Campbell's Cheddar Cheese
• Parmesan Cheese
• Ricotta Cheese
• Melted Butter
• Mushrooms
• Chopped Spinach
• Pepper
• Bread Crumbs

Instructions or whatever:

• Mix everything except the bread crumbs and melted butter in a bowl (Specifically, one that you can bake stuff in)
• Mix melted butter and bread crumbs, and then add them to the top of the pasta/mix
• Cover the bowl with foil, and bake at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for however long you see fit (mine took about 25 mins)
• Eat! (After safely taking it out of the oven and letting is sit for a bit, of course)

Last Night on Earth

I've completed another task! Played a game I've never played before. This one was actually unintentional. A day or two after I created the list, I went to my boyfriend's house for his and his sister's birthday party. Once everyone had eaten dinner, finished the (cup)cake(s), and all that good stuff, the young'ns decided to play Last Night on Earth, a board game about zombies. Because it sounded interesting, I decided to join.

I never play board games with scenarios and characters and the works because, well, because I hardly get the chance to. I did once attempt playing Arkham Horror, but sat there confused the majority of the time. Last Night on Earth, however, was a lot more simple and fun. Also I played a hot nurse named Becky. ;)

The zombies won, btw.

Last coffee shop visit: The Coffee Bean, Jasmine Dragon Tea Latte

In which I attempt to make hamburgers.

I've completed part of a task! Yay!
