Let the sorting hat decide.

If you love Harry Potter as much as I do, you've probably already figured out "your house."

If you like Harry Potter a moderate amount, you might be curious about what Hogwarts house you belong in.

If you're relatively new to the Harry Potter scene, you might not be able to tell the four Hogwarts houses apart from one another.

Either way, this article is going to illuminate what it means to be a Gryffindor, a Hufflepuff, a Ravenclaw, or a Slytherin. Then, at the end, if you're unsure of your Hogwarts house, you can take the quiz to find out.

The house of the daring and brave.

To be a Gryffindor, one must be brave, daring, and chivalrous. Those in the Gryffindor house tend to be athletic and popular. Unfortunately, the bravery can sometimes lead to recklessness and a feeling of being superior to everyone else. Some of the more famous members of the Gryffindor house include Albus Dumbledore, Minerva McGonagall, and Harry Potter.

The house of the loyal and fair.

To be a Hufflepuff, one must be humble and kind. Hufflepuffs have big hearts and are full of goodwill. They are friendly to everyone, regardless of house. Hufflepuffs can have a hard time being productive and have a lack of drive. They don't like to compete against the other houses. Some of the more famous members of the Hufflepuff house include Newt Scamander, Cedric Diggory, and Nymphadora Tonks.

The house of the wise.

To be a Ravenclaw, one must have intelligence and creativity. Members of Ravenclaw are resourceful and need very little outside help. They tend to make the highest marks in their classes. However, some members of Ravenclaw can be arrogant due to their high intelligence and only want to spend time with members of their own house. Some famous Ravenclaws include Luna Lovegood, Gilderoy Lockhart, and Garrick Ollivander.

The house of the ambitious and cunning.

To be a member of the Slytherin house, one must be resourceful and cunning. Slytherins are considered ambitious because they want the best life has to offer---and they will do anything for it. Unfortunately, Slytherin is usually painted as the "evil" house, which is completely untrue. Every house produces a bad apple or two---right? Many Slytherins will argue that the ends justify the means and may be sneaky to get what they want. Some famous Slytherins (besides You-Know-Who) include Severus Snape, Horace Slughorn, and Merlin.

Now that you have had the run down of what it means to be a Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin, why not test for yourself? I, myself, have already tested and confirmed what I thought. I am a proud Slytherin.

What are you? Let the sorting house decide...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
