Matanuska House!!
So I'm feeling very Hogwartsy (is that a word?) right now! I'll rewind for a second to say that I decided to go to my first Harry Potter convention next August. It's a long way away I know... So anyway, I registered, convinced a friend to go with me, and can't wait to meet more HP fans! Now, fast forward again. Today I got my Aeolian University letter and was sorted into a house! Yay!!! "Matanuska!" The sorting hat says. A house of adventurers and explorers....
"Despite their love of quests and daring, new horizons, great mountains and infinite seas, every Matanuska remembers the great principles charged them by Boreas: brave the winds and your duty, protect the great treasures of the earth, and always leave a Matanuska flag."
"The House knows extraordinary power, and its obduracy and rage are tempered, like the steel of their weaponscraft, with an unwavering sense of responsibility. Adventure commands the House of Boreas, but duty and the stars always bring Matanuskas home again."
I love that last line! I do enjoy quests and adventure! It seems to fit! :) Now to find the common room and meet the other Matanuskas (hopefully I'll be able to spell my house name by August! Wonder if Harry ever had that problem with Gryffindor?)!
