Harry Potter Identity Crisis

As I anxiously awaited the release of the FINAL (sob) Harry Potter movie, and as it was an off week at work with a certain lack of phones ringing to keep me occupied, I took some of those "Sorting Hat" quizzes online. 

I'll admit, part of this had to do with a discussion with friends about which house we saw oursevles in.  Someone put me on the fence between Gryffindor and Hufflepuff.  REALLY?  That's not how I pictured myself.  Let's go to the quizzes and find out

Quiz #1 Results: 


Meh.  I mean, I got good grades in school and I'd like to think I'm fairly clever, but I'm not sure that's the best fit.  Besides, that quiz was one of those "What's your favorite color, animal, class" type quizzes.  I don't trust it!  Time for a second opinion. . .




Hmmm.  Well, I suppose I do try to be fair, inclusive blah blah blah.  Hufflepuffs have good qualities.  Tonks was a Hufflepuff!  Still, maybe a third opinion will clarify which one I am once and for all, even though this was more of a genuine "personality" quiz.



Well hot dog!  This IS what I thought I'd be in the first place (I like to think of myself as a more extroverted version of Hermione, huge curly hair and all) but now I just feel like I'm dealing with an identity crisis.  No, I didn't take a fourth quiz to see if I'd get Slytherin and complete the confusion.  I'll just leave it at this, with my Hermione comparision standing as the trump card (and my roommate's comment on my loyalty as another defining characteristic.

At least I didn't wind up like this lady who didn't quite make it into Hogwarts all together.

P.S. In case you were wondering, the final movie is epic.  I bawled, no surprise.  The book is, of course, much better but the film adaptation is pretty much as good as you'll get.  Visually stunning, great portrayal, included the REALLY important stuff.  I'm satisfied, and somehow empty because it's over.  *sigh*
