Happy tears. Woot! I gotta say, it works to let you choose a wand (or let the wand choose you) that just looks right for you; ask those questions to sort you into a House; and that welcome message! Oh! I've never been so proud! To be a Ravenclaw!
I got to thinking, the last thing I wanted to be is a Hufflepuff. But I remember a point in my life where I thought I'll be one. I guess the traits Ravenclaw has are the things that I want to have, or aspire to have (or in the best case, I do have and growing up in Hogwarts in the House was supposed to encourage and hone those) - and the Hufflepuff traits are some things I do have, but that I'm not really proud of having. I guess I'll just hold on to Dumbledore's suspicion about the Sorting being too early. (Remember the old harrypotter.com by Warner Brothers with the simple sorting, and we tried to trick it into sorting us into Gryffindor? Well, I did anyway.) If you haven't been Sorted properly, you should, if only to figure out and read the welcome message (it's supposed to be only for the pupils in the house - no Googling!) And it's gotta be the truest result you're gonna get - J.K. Rowling's behind the site. I got my brother to take the test - and apparently some of the questions are different, maybe according to our choices as well.
It works to rekindle the old flames of this once avid fan. Despite all the complaints about not being able to write the apostrophe, and the jumbled username - the whole first year experience just gives the feeling of starting something new and wonderful.
Oh, it's Pottermore.
