We're off to see the Wizard ...

... No, not THAT Wizard!

Today, the lovely [livejournal.com profile] andiivalo and I are heading off to the exotic environs of Watford to go to The Harry Potter Studio Tour!!!  Not to say that I'm excited about going, but I've been spending far, FAR more time than a woman of my age should, contemplating what house I would have been in had I been a Hogwarts student.

So, let's examine the evidence:


GRYFFINDOR
values bravery, daring, nerve, and chivalry.
Am I brave?  If you've ever seen me with a spider in the house, you'll know that answer to that one.
HUFFLEPUFF
values hard work, dedication, patience, loyalty, and fair play.
Hmmm... yes, I'm loyal - definitely loyal.  Now, patience is a virtue, but it sure as hell isn't one of mine.  And hard work?  Sure, I'm prepared to work hard - for a good salary.  But I wouldn't say it's something I value doing - basically anything that takes me away from friends, fun, art and fandom is more or less a pain in the arse!
SLYTHERIN
values ambition, cunning and resourcefulness. 
I am probably the least ambitious person on the planet.  Ambition only leads to more hard work - see my comment re: hard work above.
RAVENCLAW
values intelligence, knowledge, creativity and wit. 
I would say I'm a fairly well read person, and I have been known to employ a bit of decent brain power when the need arises.  Creativity is absolutely at the core of my being and I really do love acquiring knowledge, especially about subjects that interest me - like, for instance, Harry Potter houses!


So, after much deliberation, I've decided that today I shall be Dizzo, the honorary RAVENCLAW student!



Although, I might need some of the Gryffindor Bravery and Hufflepuff patience in a moment as I'm about to tackle the M25!!
Wish me luck!

LOL! Have the MOST EXCELLENT time :D It is an amazing place and is so giggle and happy inducing :D
I'd like to say I'm a Gryffindor, but I too am a Ravenclaw I think :)

It was a wonderful day, I'll post about it soon. We spent 7 hours there, and made the most of every single moment!

Seven hours? NICE! Did you enjoy the Forbidden Forest? It wasn't there when we went *sad face*

Oh, I wish I could see that, especially since I'm going through a renewed interest in the HP books (and fic) right now.

I have no clue what house I'd end up in. Is there one that values procrastination, Internet surfing, and taking naps?

It was a fabulous experience. If you ever make it over to the UK, this needs to be on your to do list!
Hmmm ... I'll leave that one to the sorting hat. I'm sure he'd figure it out :)
