sorry.
In kindergarten, my uncles taught me to make other people cry before I let them make me cry. I was being bothered by this one boy who kept calling me cross-eyed. Heeding my uncles’ advice, I punched the kid and gave him a nosebleed before he could tease me to tears.
However, I think that teaching got ingrained better than it should have been. Sorry.

Bummer.

Pottermore.
I answered all the questions honestly, and it got me a phoenix feather core wand, which is supposedly rare and about which I’m happy.
Answering honestly also got me sorted into Ravenclaw, about which I’m kind of upset. I know I should be glad I even got in early, but meh.
Otherwise, I’m having a blast. It is better than I imagined, and it’s only in the beta version! I...
