TASK TWO - House Pride
I awaited anxious for the results of the first round. Would I be still be able to show to everybody around HOL that I’m the next Miss HOL, or would I have been eliminated in the very first round.
As the final results were finally up, I let out a sigh of relieve. I was still in the race to become the next Miss HOL!! And there were the reactions of our judges, to the first task. I nodded when they fired their comments at me. Some were fair, some a bit harsh and others I could totally imagine.
The second task was released. I gasped a little. I had to fill out a questionnaire. If there was something I was really worse at, it was filling out a questionnaire. Since I have to power to exaggerate my answers or to get really into answering them. But I wasn’t going to give up! So I got digging into answer the questionnaire.

Q&A
1. You have to pick one HOL member to walk in their shoes for a day, who would you pick and why? (Sophia)
I have to say this is a hard one. There are a lot great members in HOL, but I really find this question hard. That's mostly because I'm a person who never really wants to stand in someone else his/her shoes. Like the way I am and who I am. But that isn't the question you asked. So after some hard thinking, I think I would like to be Cassie for a day. I think it would just be awesome to be baking cake all day. And I think that would be a legit reason to be her. It couldn't be a better reason!
2. What do you see when you encounter a boggart? What would you dispel it with? (Cassie)
The thing that I will see when I encounter a boggart is an Oniscidea. Just the horrid thought of seeing an Oniscidea in front of me will freeze me up. I will have a very hard time getting that to become funny, since come on I'm talking about an ugly scary Oniscidea... that can't be made funny... The only thing I can think of that it would turn into a rainbow coloured bouncy ball and bounce through the room. But that isn't really funny, but good enough the make my shivers go away.
3. What do you see as the difference between confidence and conceit? (Allison)
The difference between confidence and conceit. The biggest difference that I see between these two, is that conceit is more like bragging around about how good you are at something. Confidence at the other hand is a more quiet version and gives you the strengths to do the things that you're good at.
4. If you were an animagus, what would you turn into, and why? (Marcie)
My animagus would turn into a bear. It would become a bear because of the way I feel. I'm like someone who has strength, but has a kind and friendly heart. This makes the bear suite me very well. Besides that, I'm known for the hibernation type, and which animal is better at it then the awesome cuddlesome bear! That would just totally be my protectable animal!!!
5. If crowned Mr./Ms. HOL, how would you accomplish and maintain HOL-wide peace? (Silmarien)
I don't think there is something like HOL-wide peace. I don't really believe in it and I never will. I think the way HOL is at this moment is fine. I don't want to be friends with everybody and not everybody (coughnobodycough) wants to be friends with me. I have the feeling that when you have something that's called like HOL-wide peace, you are taking away the free thinking part of people. And where there are people, there are different opinions. But to let me quit yapping about this and let me ask a question in return. Is there war at this moment in HOL? Or did I miss the HOL-wide war?
6. If you could be any kind of potato, what would you pick? Why? (Maya)
I would obvious be a sweet potato. Just the word sweet says enough. Beside that sweet potato are one of the few potatoes that I like... So I wouldn't mind to cook, bake or eat myself.
7. What or who motivates you, and why? (Allison)
I think what or who motivates me differs a lot. At this moment the thing that motivates me is my future. I want to finish my education, so that I can start working as a full pledge nurse. Heck, the that motivates me at this moment is that I want to go work abroad when I finish my education. I'm still looking into things, but I just want to work for a year or two abroad to get some experience and discover the culture of another country.
8. Oh no! The zombies have leaked out of the Roost and are attacking HOL. How would you stop them? (Silmarien)
OH NO!!! What should we do! Wait... since when did they keep zombies in the Roost? I thought it was permitted to keep Zombies in the Common Rooms? Since when are the eagles breaking the rules? But the only thing to do is... RUUNNN!!! Oh no I mean let's make a pretty nice fire and burn them! (or scare them away, if burning them is too harsh for them) But I would so go for the burning part! And after that I would send the fried zombies back to the Roost. They should keep their pets locked up, even though it is permitted.
9.Say you are dead- what do you think your eulogy would say about you? (Alexia)
I think that people will start off with that they will keep their speech as short as possible, since I was always that good at holding short speeches. So their speech in the end will be long and dreadful, in which they exclamate the things I did. I have the feeling that some will mention me as a graphic goddess, so by the time I die, I will have to try to get rid of that title. But mostly I think that their speeches will be about how I was, how i liked to cuddle, snuggle and huggle people. And I have the feeling that they will end their speech with: "In the end, Fumei's wish was finally granted. And now she is in her final everlasting hibernation! Fumei enjoy it well!"
10. Choose the word below that best describes your dominant personality trait. Then explain why do you choose it. (Kaiwa)
I think the word describes my dominant personality trait is Friendly. Yes I know it a lame dominant personality trait... but It's mine!! *coughs* the reason why I'm taking that one as my dominant one is, because I'm like almost always friendly towards everybody. Besides that, if I should ask friends, colleagues, patients or clients what describes me the best, the will answer it with friendly. I'm friendly because I'll listening ear, I will help were people need help and I have tons of patience bottled inside of me. Which helps with me and being friendly. But I have to add to that, that I can answer in an obtuse way. It's not that I really mean it that way, but that's just my first response that cuts in. So sometimes it can look that I'm not friendly, but I don't mean any harm

So ladies and gentlemen and the mysterious jury! I present to you, the house pride I have as a fearsome lion.
