Are they serious?? Are the wand selection questions really this hard? Jeez.
DO YOU MOST FEAR...
DARKNESS / FIRE / HEIGHTS / SMALL SPACES / ISOLATION
I can't decide. It's not like I have compared these fears to each other. How the hell am I supposed to know?! Honestly?
Fire: I have respect for fire. But it scares me. I guess it's because it can turn basically anything into dust. I don't like that thought.
Heights: Oh god I hate heights. I like being on the ground. I think I'm scared of the fact that I know that if I'm up really high and fall, I'm going to die. Or get very hurt. It's freaky.
Isolation: To be all alone, without any kind of communication... I've never really experienced this, but I've seen enough zombie movies to know that this does NOT sound funny. And I really dislike being alone for a longer time and..
Fear of heights is most likely anxiety based. And fire that things will disappear/change. Isolation is probably a mix of both I guess?
I wish I had a therapist and a psychologist with me to help me with these kind of questions. I'm gonna lose my mind.. Pottermore is the end of my sanity, I swear.

Travelling alone down a deserted road, you reach a crossroads. Do you continue...
Left towards the sea... Ahead towards the forest... Right towards the castle...
WARNING: Uninteresting and unnecessary (and probably tiring) nerd rant.
___________________________________________________________________
So, I'm in Pottermore and about to get my wand, but I have to go through this quiz or test or whatever to get it, and I'm already freaking out over the questions. Seriously, what's wrong with me? I don't even want to think about how I will be reacting to the house sorting test (I'll probably be going to pieces).
So. The questions are quite simple and direct, but then this one popped up and I'm just sitting here like O_O WHY. This is one of the questions I've been dreading. Because I can't decide between the road towards the sea or towards the castle.
Even though I find forests enchanting and cozy, they also freak me out at the same time... there's something spooky about forests (and I hate plants and bugs). Besides, it's a deserted road, hello CREEPY.
The sea: I love the sea. I love the smell, the look of it and it's calming effect on me, and I love the sound the waves make, I love the atmosphere around the ocean... Yeah... BUT then again, it's deserted so I mean it would obviously be very lonely and probably cold and scary at night.
The castle: I really like old buildings and ancient castles and such. I find it very beautiful and exciting. Also, there could maybe be people here..? But if so, are they nice? (Or alive?? I mean.. castles might be haunted :O). Terrifying thought. At the same time as castles intrigue me, they make me a bit uncomfortable. There's just something about old buildings. They have a history, and a weird energy to them. Ahhh. So scary but fascinating!! Though it could keep me warm during a cold night - who the hell would even want to spend the night in an empty castle?!
Do you see my problem here?!?! HAHA. Oh GOD, Pottermore, WHY do you do this to me?

Going through these feelings right now:
"Fuck you Pottermore. Not fair"

"Ole dole doff, kinke lane koff, koffe lane, binke bane, ole dole doff"
"Fuck you Pottermore. Not fair"

"Ole dole doff, kinke lane koff, koffe lane, binke bane, ole dole doff"
^I do that with every other important decision when I can't make up my mind so whatever.
UPDATE: Left towards the sea.

A Panic! at the Disco rant by a fan who's been awake for 24 hours.
I spent this night awake. It's 05:36 am, but the sun has been up since about 3 am. I find that pretty cool. I didn't go to bed tonight because I was too busy checking out interviews on the internet with this cool band called Panic! At The Disco. My fascination with this band started around '06 when they released A Fever You Can't Sweat Out, but my passion for their music ceased for a while after having replayed their record time and time again.
This past year that passion has grown strong again, and this time to full extent. I'm listening to their second record Pretty. Odd a lot, and as opposed to most fans of their first record I think it's amazing. Their music makes me feel good about myself and as a musician I find that their music, though kicking through such an old tired genre, is still very inventive, different and interesting.
What is tragic about this band is that their bassist Jon and guitarist Ryan left the band after touring with their second record. There are many reasons why I think this is a tragedy. Number one is the fact that Ryan wrote most lyrics and melodies for the band. He also contributed with the visual aspect to a great extent. This makes him an inspiration to me. Number two is that I think Ryan and the singer Brendon complimented each other very well as performers.
While Ryan seems to be the shy type, playing his instrument in a quite anonymous manner, letting the music speak for itself, Brendon is a fullblown entertainer. Even though they still made as big of impacts on stage, their different ways of performing created a wider audience and, in my personal opinion, a better show. Ryan's new band The Young Veins didn't work out in my opinion because Ryan lacks that entertaining, full on live performer skill that Brendon possesses. Brendon has a way of voicing Ryan's words that not even the writer himself seems to manage.
Panic! At The Disco as they are now, though, are becoming slightly promiscuous with the guys they're playing with nowadays. The guitarist and bassist play in almost the same transparent way as Brendon, which could be a great thing. With these guys, it seems to slightly backfire and it makes their performances less fluid and well thought out as they were before Ryan and Jon left.
So I feel upset about the fact that it's not all four of them anymore. They were just so great together.

#18: A problem that you have had [Freeny]
I pretty much covered this one in my last post, so... I'll let this one be.

#17: Something that you're proud of [Freeny]
I'm very proud of the fact that I went from finding social situations of almost all kinds horrifying to actually enjoying them now.
Ever since I was a kid I always hid behind someone else, because I couldn't speak for myself. I dreaded oral presentations and suffered from severe anxiety at many points in my life.
I've overcome that.
I'm not sure exactly how I did it, but I think a lot of it has to do with playing music in front of other people in school concerts. If anything it made me more comfortable about having people see me. This semester I've made a bunch of oral presentations in front of full classes, and I'm very proud of overcoming the stagefright which prevented me from doing so before.
I used to have a hard time making purchases at stores because the interaction with the cashier would scare me. Those feelings still come creeping back sometimes, but I manage to push them away. I'm a lot stronger now, and I'll stay that way.

#16: Something you always think "what if..." about [Freeny]
Oh, man... I think "what if..." about everything. I'm an overthinker, which means I replay moments in my head over and over again, all the time. The smallest interaction implies a lot to me. It gets pretty draining at times, hence the fact that I can't give one answer to that statement.
I always imagine things like being born in other countries and time-eras or meeting different people at another point in my life. I come up with inquiries like, why did Hannah come into my life June 30th 2007? Why didn't we meet sooner or later? What if we'd met when we were kids and lived close to eachother? What would've happened if my parents never broke up?
I can't give an answer to these questions, and it urks me. It all adds up to "everything happens for a reason", which is a notion I for some reason dislike.
Some questions don't have answers.

#15: Your zodiac/horoscope and if you think it fits your personality [Freeny]
My zodiac and what it says about me:
I'm a Libra
Your element: Air
Your ruling planets: Venus
Symbol: The Scales
Your stone: Opals
Life Pursuit: Emotional and financial security
Libras Secret Desire: To be consistent
Libras Characteristics: Diplomatic, urbane, romantic, charming, easygoing, indecisive, sociable, gullible, self-indulgent, idealistic, easily influenced, changeable
I find horoscopes and zodiac signs interesting, because of my plain need for vertification. Everyone wants to know who they are and why, so we rely on something a bunch of strangers came up with a long time ago to tell us who we are. In my heart, I know that there is no such thing as zodiac signs, and that it doesn't matter which part of the year I was born in. Reading about the Libra makes me look for the things I can relate to, though, and that's why I often find myself thinking they're pretty much correct.
It often says that the Libra is a daydreamer, who wishes to be somewhere else and often makes up scenarios in their heads. It often says there's a very introverted aspect to the people of that sign, despite their alleged social capability. It also says that the Libra is very scared of conflicts and always wants everyone to get along, which causes them to put themselves inbetween the two fighting people.
Those are the aspects I find myself relating to the most about the Libra, because I know, and I think some of my friends can have a say in how much that sounds like me.

Day 15: Your zodiac/horoscope and if you think it fits your personality [Hannah]
My zodiac and what it says about me:I'm a Taurus.
Your element: Earth
Your ruling planets: Venus
Symbol: The Bull
Your stone: Emerald
Life Pursuit: Emotional and financial security
Taurus Secret Desire: To have a secure, happy and wealthy life/marriage
Taurus Characteristics: Steady, reliable, stubborn, determined, creative, kind, loyal, generous, gerocious temperament, honest, possessive, financial wizard, romantic, emotional, warmhearted, compassionate, obstinate...
Positive Aspects
The Taurus symbol has very attractive and positive features that make people good human beings. They are peace lovers and are more practical than intellectual. They are loyal and can endure relationships without betrayals. They are homely and prefer staying indoors with a good eye for materialistic things, luxury and well furnished lifestyle. Comfort and pleasure loving are few of the most prominent features of Taurus. Taureans are lovely individuals to be with, although they are quite reserve and calm. They are sensuous to touch and are strongly passionate. Taureans make good partners having taste for good food, drink and sex. They are perfect individuals who can express love with utmost warmth and affection.
Negative Aspects
Every zodiac symbols have some negative traits also. Taureans are extremely possessive with their own possessions as well as with their partners. They often tend to get jealous, if not given necessary attention. They can be very stubborn and obsessive at times. Although Taureans are gentle and peace loving, they can burst into a feat of violent anger and rage, if provoked. Taureans can be annoying at times, as they are extremely slow and lazy. They are immune to changes. This can be either be a positive or negative perspective, depending on circumstances.
Todays horoscope (I used the Daily horoscope app on my phone):
When you create a recipe for a seafood dish, for example, you can improvise and be as creative as you desire. As long as you cook the meal thoroughly, you should come out with something that is at least edible. But when you bake a cake, it is a more scientific proposition. That's because the wrong blend of ingredients - or leaving out something critical such as baking soda - could cause your cake to be a disaster. You may be inclined to be creative in an upcoming venture, but you really need to play by the rules for the greatest chance at success.
---
I love things like horoscopes and astrology, numerology etc! I don't let it control my life and destiny, but it's fun to look at and kind of try to fit it into your current life situation.
I do feel like a Taurus though. Most of the characteristics fit me very well, I think :).
This gif also describes me quite well

Day 14: What you wore today [Hannah]
I don't have any photos of what I wore today haha and as soon as I got home I took a quick shower and then changed into leggings and a cozy sweater :3.
BUT before that, when I was out celebrating my birthday for the second day in a row, with my friends, I wore: a pink/coral tank top, a grey cardigan with skulls, my favorite black jeans and my blue low converse.

#13: Your opinion about your body and how comfortable you are with it [Freeny]
Everyone gets selfconcious about their appearance and so on, but that aside I'm very happy about my body, because it enables me to...
... move from one place to another just using my legs.
... dance 'till it hurts and keep going.
... rock out at concerts.
... make attractive faces
and, most importantly...
scroll tumblr. :)
Body, I love you!

Ugh. And of fucking course I get this one on my birthday. Well ok, here goes;
Right now, I don't really like it, I'm not exactly comfortable.
But I guess it could be worse, and I'm working on both making my body look better and making me less selfconcious.
At least I don't hate being "short" as much as I used too :).

#11: Your family [Freeny]
My family consists of my mom, stepdad, dad and sister. I live with my mom and stepdad. My sister moved out last year and my dad moved away to his girlfriend at the same time. I used to live with my dad some weeks, but now that he lives so far away we only meet occasionally.
I'm happy about having the family I do. In my life I've had countless of fights with my parents and stepfather, and had problems with them because of the divorce, etc. However, I wouldn't trade them for the world because in that case I wouldn't have my sister. She's the closest friend I have, and I think she actually knows everything about me, as I know everything about her.
Now that I've grown up a bit I've also learned to get along with my parents. I find myself enjoying their company and I'm so relieved that we've overcome our past quarrels.
What I appreciate in my parents are very different. I'm happy about the musical influence my dad has had in my life. He helped me out when I first started playing the guitar, and put his old '80s rock music in my first mp3 player when I was thirteen. We've always been able to joke around and he's probably the only person that I feel has a genuine belief in me.
My stepfather came into my life when I was nine years old, and he's been around more than my real dad ever was. He married my mom just last summer, and even though we argued every single day in my early teen years, I still love him. Mostly because of the way he makes my mom feel.
My mom is so amazing. I love the way she tries to be serious, but can easily switch over to laughing her ass off when me and my sister are around. I don't know how many nights the three of us have spent together just hanging out and ending up having to calm her down because she laughs so hard she can barely breath. I love that about her.
That is all, I guess.

Day 11: Your family [Hannah]
My family consists of my mom, dad, younger sister and our four cats. Yes, I absolutely consider my cats as a part of my family.
We used to live together as a family, but then my parents separated and I've lived with my mom ever since. My dad has one cat and the rest of them lives with me and mom. I kind of wish I could be at my dad's place more often, and I'm going to as soon as we get my room ready, I don't have any furniture there haha.
I almost don't have any contact with my sister, due to lots of different reasons I'm not going to bring up here.
uhm. So yeah. My cats means the world to me.

#10: Put your music player on shuffle and write the first ten songs that play [Freeny]
I'll do what it says above, but I'll add my own commentary on the songs as well :). My music player of choice is my iPhone for everyone's information, and I listen to it when I'm on the bus to and from school.
1. In The Cold Light Of The Morning - Placebo
I haven't listened to that song, or really any Placebo song, in a while since I was pretty much obsessed with them throughout 2010. I like the ghosty feel to this song, and also the nice analogy in the lyrics: "A loser, a sinner, a cock in a dildo's disguise." Hehe.
2. London Beckoned Songs About Money Written By Machines - Panic! At The Disco
Not so long ago, I was obsessed with this song. I love how the lyrics talk about trying to actually dare to do what you want to do. The opening lyric "Stop stalling, make a name for yourself" is so powerful and it inspires me.
3. I Don't Want To Know - Fleetwood Mac
I just recently added this bands' record 'Rumours' to my iPhone, and this is one of the songs I haven't listened to that much yet. So much for commentary!
4. Allergic (To Thoughts Of Mother Earth) - Placebo
The intro and entire instrumental to this entire song is so ridiculously Placebo and I love it. If someone asked what Placebo's sound is, it could easily be summed up in this song.
5. I Want You - Kings Of Leon
I love the rythm-section in this song! But I don't have a special bond to the song in general.
6. Paralyzed - The Used
Oh my God, this is one of the songs that gets me PSYCHED, y'all! The melody is so contagious, but having this song stuck in your head all day isn't even annoying because it's so fucking good! It also reminds me of 2008, when Hannah and I for the first time completely sold our souls to the sound of The Used.
7. No One Knows - Green Day
This is one of Green Day's older songs, and the first thing I thought when it started playing was "aww", because the song and the album (Kerplunk!) in its whole reminds me of sitting alone in my room when I was fourteen and recognizing the feelings of loneliness. Billie Joe was so young when he wrote these songs, and it kind of feels like I grew up with him for each album I listened to by them.
8. Northern Downpour - Panic! At The Disco
I love the album Pretty. Odd. I feel so happy when I listen to it, and I think that is the feeling the band intended to send out when they wrote the songs. I also find Ryans (their former guitarists) singing part very cute. I don't know. He has his own singing parts in some songs on the album, and I just think it's downright cute, haha.
9. Dead Ringer - Rise Against
This is one of the songs that I can see myself moshing like crazy to, haha. It awakes all of those feelings of rage that you keep locked inside and don't let out until you get to jump around to a song that reminds you of them at a show, to later feel completely rid of those feelings of anger, if only for a while.
10. Early Sunsets Over Monroeville - My Chemical Romance
This is an amazing song because it's so emotional. Not only because the lyrics are beautiful, but because of the way Gerard (the singer) performs them. He sounds so vulnerable and it fits perfectly to the melancholy feel of the song. I especially love the way he sings "Running away and hiding with you" and "I fought them all off just to hold you close and tight".
I recommend these songs to all of y'all, so look them up!

This is one of the songs that I can see myself moshing like crazy to, haha. It awakes all of those feelings of rage that you keep locked inside and don't let out until you get to jump around to a song that reminds you of them at a show, to later feel completely rid of those feelings of anger, if only for a while.
10. Early Sunsets Over Monroeville - My Chemical Romance
This is an amazing song because it's so emotional. Not only because the lyrics are beautiful, but because of the way Gerard (the singer) performs them. He sounds so vulnerable and it fits perfectly to the melancholy feel of the song. I especially love the way he sings "Running away and hiding with you" and "I fought them all off just to hold you close and tight".
I recommend these songs to all of y'all, so look them up!
