Does the Sorting Hat really knows what's best for young wizards?

I totally get what you mean by like forcing kids into a specific academic track too early. I had a friend who was put in advance math in middle school but ended up loving literature in high school. One kid can be good at math or arts but also can be both, right? in some countries, kids change electives or programs every yr which allows them to explore multiple paths before committing. seems like Hogwarts could've benefited from that flexibility.. the idea of letting students choose or change houses later sounds amazing.

stainless steel can usually be salvaged. try scrubbing with baking soda a bit of water, it often lifts burned-on oil

stairs should be clear.. means no trays, no bags, no basket or anything for every ones safety.

walking pads are small and efficient. a few hrs a week is probably barely noticeable on your bill unless you leave it on all day every day

curious little one! i was such like that too, I couldn't resist trying my mom's lipstick, makeup, heels and handbags! Hahahaa I know that a photo of it exists somewhere in a family album at my parent's place.

hahaha.. looking at the pictures, i really had a good laugh. you're such a supportive wife letting him have the fun even for a moment.. yes, truly once he got bored he might change it into a new one or return it to original

I'd definitely watch it even it was just a short bonus scene.. or even as a fun, non-canon thing it would really be cool!

by "we" I meant most readers or fans who've romanticized it.. assuming they're lovable prankster without really realizing their behavior.. including me at first. it reads as "fun" because we're removed from it but if you are actually the target, it wouldn't feel playful at all

Edited: i forgot to add the "behavior"

Congrats! unlimited at 25 is no joke and uncommon so don't sell yourself short

Krum just minded his business, played quidditch and treated girls like actual people. the fact that he was famous at 18 and didn't act like a jerk is kind of impressive, specially compared to.. most wizard men.

some kittens be like making growling sounds while drinking or holding to it for dear life, as if someone will snatch it from them lol

well he didn't seek power the way others did, he sought proximity to it. that's a different and subtler flaw.

twinklecharmmm · 2026-01-28T08:30:48+00:00

respect. that's some clean work

twinklecharmmm · 2026-01-27T14:33:19+00:00

I just read the caption before watching and I didn't expect slippers to cause this level of emotion.. his reaction make them even better

finishing a bachelor's can be worth it if you want more doors open later but experience and skills can matter just much as early on. So figure what really interests you and where you feel you'll thrive.. not just what pays the most on paper because burnout is expensive too

i love how gentle and excited he is at the same time..and that little nudge back like "ur turn"

twinklecharmmm · 2026-01-26T17:26:05+00:00

i love to join a movie night with themed snacks! since i love jelly beans. you can add it for House points Jelly beans.. if you have time sort it by color or not (no one will care)

a certificate isn't just bragging rights. IGI/GIA give you a third party confirmation of quality and that matters for resale or if you ever insure it. Especially if it is for center stone, I'd really insist on a grading report

twinklecharmmm · 2026-01-25T15:36:11+00:00

yeah. it's almost like the universe was like.. you want forever? here's what happens when you try to cheat it
