Recently, my siblings and I took the Pottermore quiz to see which Hogwarts house we would be sorted into (non-nerds leave now). My brother was sorted into Gryffindor first, and naturally, I wanted to be Gryffindor (the bravest) as well, ready to fight alongside my brother and Harry Potter!

My body is always in pain, and worst of all, I am so tired I could cry. … Continue reading Pushing Through the Fatigue: a Lil Haul
