This is heartbreaking. I find it fitting when she joined, she chose the name Polaris, because through her time here, she really came to be like the North Star. She was steadfast and reliable. She provided guidance to many Ravenclaws over the years. To others, she was such a bright light in their liv...

I'm sending 12 beans to Mia Fountain and Torii Taylor (because sharing is caring and I don't follow rules.) for being great examples for Ravenclaw, and to congratulate them on becoming Prefects!

jk I sent them like 12,000 because I have way too many.

Sooooo is there going to be like an FAQ about the whole site being switched over or do we all just get to sit around and speculate what we may or may not lose?

Hello Everyone, I'm Ryan Granger, a 7th year Ravenclaw who's just about to graduate, and not anywhere close to being ready to accept that fact. I'm a co-head prefect with my best friend in the world, Arielle Lemoyne. I like to give her crap and annoy her to no end. I hope to learn more about Greek m...

Actually I've started an acapella group at my university and that's one of our traditions is to watch the movies because we love them.
