  1. Hope you all had a great Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanza, or any celebration and that you are getting ready to receive this 2021 which I know will be better than this year *fingers crossed* .

     

    But please, remember all the good things from 2020, even if you feel like there aren't any, try and find the silver lining. 

     

    I know to me, HOL was one of the best things that could have happen to me this year and I'm forever thankful for all the games, classes and people I've met here <3

     

    Wish you all only the best.

    - Carrie.

  2. What is your favorite kind of puzzle??

    crossword? wordsearch? fallen letters? nonogram? other?

    1. Rose Pottermore

      Rose Pottermore

      Word Search, Fallen Letters and Nonograms. Can't choose between them.

      I love logic puzzles!

  3. This is not my case but I'm super curious...

    Has anyone finished all the assignment for at least one class already?

      Thanks for the beans, Carrie!

  4. Does anyone know the Hogwarts Anthem? how many robes should I take? what books do I need? 

    I'm so nervous for our first day that I'm starting to forget things!

      Savannah's right about the books and robes, and I remember the anthem like the back of my wand.

    3. Emerald Wolvenhowl

      Emerald Wolvenhowl

      I don't recall the anthem either. I agree with Savannah and Rose. Maybe you could take a small bag with you too and use the capacious extremis charm on it. That way you can take all the books you own with you.

      Thank you guys so much.

      You've been so helpful and now everything is in my trunk and ready to go :D

      See you on the train y'all!!

       

      *runs back to her room because she almost left Sapphire (my Tawny baby Owl) sleeping in the bed* hehe... now I'm ready 

  5. Just one more week, folks!! :D

  6. First day of school is approaching!

    Do you have everything ready for this new school year?

    Robes, books, quill, ink?

    If not hurry up and go to Diagon Alley :D

    1. Prof. Sky Alton

      Prof. Sky Alton

      Ready? What is this ready of which you speak? *Dashes around doing a hundred and one things to prepare for the new school year*

    2. Carrie Warts

      Carrie Warts

      LOL I mean ready for us mortals, dear Sky.

      I don't know anyone capable of doing so many things all together like you do!

      But I know you'll make it and then we will laugh looking back at all the things you managed to do in such short time while drinking a barrel of coffee/tea.

  7. Are all the summer activities over? do you still want to have one last activity before classes start in September?

     

    Go to the QUIDDITCH FORUM and you will find the Quidditch Summer Activities !

  12. Question time: Is there any type of music or any song in particular that you feel touches your heart??

     

    To me it happens with Celtic music, I don't know why but it feels like a long lost dream for my soul.

    1. Prof. Sky Alton

      What type of thing do you enjoy? For books, anything by Garth Nix or Tamora Pierce  is good

    2. Carrie Warts

      Carrie Warts

      I literally would read anything, except for math books LOL.

    3. Lora Wallabenger

      Lora Wallabenger

      If you haven't read Shadowhunters series by Cassandra Clare already, try reading it :). It's a kinda mixture of urban fantasy and adventure/action fiction. The books are pretty interesting! 

  15. Two nights ago my best friend woke me up with a call at 1 am because she was dying her hair and needed me to see if she was doing it right. I literally got up and had a video chat with her until 4 am. What are some random/lovely/crazy things you've done for your friends?
    (
    anyone dying their hair at that time too?)

      The only time I can remember having a sleepover with a friend at their house, we stayed up until past midnight and suddenly thought it'd be an amazing idea to head down to the kitchen and make iced mochas.... so we did. And I remarkably was still able to fall asleep :P 

  16. Today is a really cold and gray day where I'm from, what do you like doing when is cold out?

    3. Carrie Warts

      Carrie Warts

  19. I just wanted to stop by to tell you that I literally sent 5 assignments of one class in one day just because I got more and more into the lessons and couldn't help myself. Sorry Professor for vomiting assignments but just know that I really enjoyed the lessons <3
    has anyone else done the same? please tell me I'm not alone

    1. Prof. Sky Alton

      Prof. Sky Alton

      You're not! <3 And if it was Patronus 101, I did exactly the same a month or two ago :P Congrats on the hard work!

    2. Iverian Gnash

      Iverian Gnash

      Wow, I'm impressed Carrie XD I've only done that a few times... and usually with easier classes :P

      Carrie Warts

      it was for CoMC but I've been crazy about Patronus 101 as well <3

  20. It's raining today!

    I enjoy the rain, the sound of it and the smell of the wet grass <3 

    1. Cleo Toughri

      Cleo Toughri

      I love rain too! Especially when you want to have fun so you go out in your bathing suit and get wet like you are in the pool. 

    2. Prof. Sky Alton

      Prof. Sky Alton

      I love rain as well, particularly sticking my head out of the window to enjoy the smell of a summer shower after a long dry spell. I also find thunderstorms really soothing to listen to.
