In the new website, the storyline will be brought to life with sumptuous newly-commissioned illustrations and interactive ‘Moments’ through which you can navigate, starting with the first book, Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s (Sorcerer’s) Stone. On entering, you choose a magic username and begin your experience. As you move through the chapters, you can read and share exclusive writing from J.K. Rowling, and, just as Harry joins Hogwarts, so can you. You visit Diagon Alley, get sorted into a house, cast spells and mix potions to help your house compete for the House Cup.
At a press conference at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, Rowling revealed some key features of the website. In an announcement which will thrill fans, she described how she has brought to life both the Sorting Hat and Ollivanders experiences from her books for the first time on Pottermore, by revealing the questions asked by the Sorting Hat - which places newcomers into their Hogwarts houses according to their characteristics - and the magic behind the Wand Chooser – which finds the right wand for each user from over 33,000 possible combinations. She also revealed glimpses of the new information she has provided on some of the best-loved characters.
remember..
“the weight of lies will bring you down and follow you to every town cause nothing happens here that doesn’t happen there. so when you run make sure you run to something and not away from cause lies don’t need an aeroplane to chase you down.”
i got the call a little bit ago informing me the babies will be here on thursday. it’s only 6 days earlier, but now it’s really hit me that they’re gonna be here and i’m starting to freak out. i thought i had another week to prepare- mentally and house-wise. the realization that i’m about to be responsible for 2 little lives is overwhelming to say the least. i kind of feel like i’m going to throw up or pass out to be honest haha. i’ve complained for the past 38 weeks about how i’m ready to be done but i’m really scared shitless now that it’s down to the wire. i’ve come so far from the person i use to be. i’ve dragged myself through some terrible, shitty things to get to where i am today. my life isn’t perfect but it’s good. not 100% of the time, but whose is? i’m so relieved joey and i have worked things out too. he may be an immature dumbass sometimes and not have his priorities in line all the time, but i whole-heartedly love him and am so lucky to have him by my side. i just hope i’m a good mom. i hope i can adjust to the screaming and crying and no sleep and messiness that is motherhood. thinking about booger-y hands and throw up on my clothes frankly makes me want to die right now haha but i guess i’ll get over it. i just hope the babes are healthy and happy and don’t think i’m a douche hahaha.
When life gives you lemons…throw them b*tches back and say, “Life, don’t make me come beat yo ass, you heard me ask for them grapes over there on that vine.
