I just got sorted into Gryffindor. I knew that is where I belong but it's kind of...boring.

I was a Hufflepuff. I'm the same year as Harry and Anthony, but not the same house. I didn't join DA because I was scared of Umbridge. One of my relatives got Umbridge really good in the fanfic "The Autistic Wizard". He put her under an imperious curse and marched her around the school chanting "I am an idiot." Now I really outed myself, since Jacob was pretty famous.

I went to Zingkrumpel, the progressive American wizarding school that sorts based on ability at age 16.

I was sorted into the time travel/alternate universe exploration corps. It's where I met the Doctor for the first time.

My unit orchestrated so many crucial events, you wouldn't believe me even if I told you.

I know someone who was a local quidditch star. He got a full scholarship to Durmstrang.

hey I think is dated him! He's still really good w a Snitch, although he did trade in his broomstick for a Gemarah. Otherwise he would never have been redt to a Ravenclaw girl!

Fun fact about American quidditch: there is no snitch or quaffle. We play only with bludgers.

Another Ravenclaw here. Anon because I actually did take Latin in school and I don't think there are that many of us here- but I believe it's

Feminine singular: alumna
Feminine plural: alumnae

Masculine singular: alumnus
Masculine plural: alumni

Neuter singular: alumnum
Neuter plural: alumna

So I think it's alumnae on this site, unless you suspect there are some men in which case it might be alumna.

Did you give up after the first book? I found that the later books redeemed the depression and general bad life decisions and immaturity of the characters in the first book. Still very dark, but I'm glad a friend of mine convinced me to finish the series.

That may very well explain Donald Trump. Too many bludgers to the head (he's totally a Beater type, no?)

I started out at Durmstrang, but in my 5th year I became a B"T and changed to Hogwarts.
