For those who aren't potterheads, here is a great place to read up: http://harrypotter.wikia.com/wiki/Hogwarts_Houses
but a quick run down
Gryffindor students, as defined by the Sorting Hat:
"Brave at heart, Their daring, nerve, and chivalry set Gryffindors apart"
"Those with brave deeds to their name"
Gryffindors are brave, bold, and daring. They usually have a strong sense of honor and pride. They are the stereotypical "heroes" and can come off as arrogant. Gryffindor emphasises the traits of courage as well as "daring, nerve, and chivalry," and thus its members are generally regarded as brave, though sometimes to the point of recklessness.
LION
Ravenclaw:
"A steady mind...wit and learning"
"Those whose intelligence is surest"
Students in Ravenclaw are intelligent and studious. They put their efforts into academics and their faith in the administration. Members of this house are characterised by their wit, intelligence, creativity, and wisdom.Ravenclaw House prizes intelligence, creativity, resourcefulness, cleverness, knowledge, and wit in its members
EAGLE
Slytherin:
"Those cunning folk use any means to achieve their ends"
"power-hungry...great ambition"
"ancestry is purest"
Slytherins know what they want and will go as far as necessary to achieve it. Determined and proud, Slytherins keep their eyes on the prize and don't mind stepping on a few toes. Pureblood supremacy is also rooted in Salazar Slytherin's legacy.Slytherins tend to be ambitious, shrewd, cunning, strong leaders, and achievement-oriented. They also have highly developed senses of self-preservation. This means that Slytherins tend to hesitate before acting, so as to weigh all possible exactly should be done.
SNAKE
Hufflepuff:
"patient...true...unafraid of toil"
"hard workers"
"loyal and honest"
Students belonging to this house are known to be hard-working, friendly, loyal, and non-judgemental. It may be that due to their values, Hufflepuffs are not as competitive as the other houses, or are more modest about their accomplishments.
BADGER (honey badger..lol)
So basically.
I'm a hufflepuff (So says Pottermore and my heart of hearts lol) I'm friendly, happy go lucky, hard working, non confrontational, loyal to those I love, and can be fierce when backed into a corner...but usually happy to stay out of trouble.
Merlin.. I think he's more of a gryffindor so far lol he is such a ham. I was hoping he would be a hufflepuff but so far he is proving me wrong lol he is brave (to the point of recklessness) such an attention getter, bold, daring and crazy FOR NO REASON other than the joy of pushing limits lol.. he is such a little lion! He is sweet and kind.. but in such a flamboyant crazy way it is kind of arrogance lol
