Hey twin of mine. Letting you know (repeatedly?) that I'm adding you back, and also that I read your intro post and am now taken aback at your intelligence/school success. Harvard? At 17? Don't expect anything nearly as merit-worthy out of my journal...
Hey! You seem like an interesting person just from the way you sort people, I just got sorted over at hogwartsishome and actually submitted an app to sorting_elite but I chickened out yesterday and asked that my app be removed from the queue, I really don't know what pleases you guys over there, haha!
(If you want to see what I think about H_E sorting, look at some of my recent posts here... and if you're afraid of getting Squibbed, just send your application my way and I can tell you what to change!
SO MANY great HiHers have written H_E apps below their potential... for example, all jessilestrange would have needed to do to get in was admit that she was afraid of flying - and then her Erised would have been seen as a GRYFFINDOR conquering of fears rather than a Gryffinpush!)
*coils around you and drags you down to the dungeons*
Dude. Just read that line again. Out of context. Seriously. There's some terrifying fanfiction buried there somewhere.
Oh, and Californians and MAGS: a) you're originally from the East Coast where the ground doesn't move so you're excused, but b) you now live in the land of brush/wildfires, rolling black-outs (and they don't even require alcohol!) and earthquakes, therefore, go buy a MAG.
But of course! If you spent 4 hours on it, you're probably in decent shape... so send it to mmailliw@gmail.com (but be prepared for me to blast you for getting something wrong ;-) .)
You can tell that I was sick of seeing HiHers I liked writing H_E apps way below their potential and getting Squibbed; yes?
I know I'm not supposed to reply to you until I'm in the community, but I saw your comment on callousandcold's post and I just wanted to say, thank you so much for making my night.
I had the same exact feeling when I saw her username and that her mood was set to apathetic. And her application made me feel so much better about myself and my app, which I at first feared wasn't up to community standards.
P.S. It may be illegal to respond to VOTES given, but there's nothing wrong with introducing yourself to community members you like on their friending page during the voting process!
B-but... you're in Slytherin, right? Which must mean that you see me as a minion or potential resource!
Overall, though, this part is what got me the most: "I find myself to identify with James Potter the most. As they did with him, many people either see me as a great friend or a cruel jackass. Either way, I plan to die young and leave quite the impression when I go."
...you plan to die young? Maybe she should be applying to a suicide help community. :|.
She should have looked up what house James Potter is in. (hint: it's NOT Slytherin!)
FWIW: I actually see James as both a great friend and a cruel jackass... but do the people who like her see her as a great minion or a great potential resource?
(P.S. I added you, if you didn't notice; I hope you don't mind the fact that I have a large number of friends - I've been doing this for more than seven years!)

(You can't reply to comments you like, but you CAN comment on people's friending posts - and I *totally* did that back when I was applying ;-))
And I shall do so, even if I'll leave LA in two months!

But your revised sorting song? Brilliant.
