The process of being sorted

J. K. Rowling says the sorting is an irreversible process. Once sorted into your house, you cannot change loyalties (though I can't imagine why one would want to). So I tried on the sorting hat and here are the questions I received.

First I do have to share the sorting hat's song with you. Remember Harry's sorting in the book?

The honor pledge again.

1. Which potion would I rather invent - Power, Wisdom, Glory, Love?

Power.

2. Upon entering an enchanted forest, which would I examine first - silver-leafed tree bearing golden apples, the fat red toadstools that appear to be talking to each other, the bubbling pool, in the depths of which something luminous is swirling. the statue of an old wizard with a strangely twinkling eye?

I say the wizard's statue as I feel like it could be dumbledore (in theory) and because the photograph looks like it could be, of all people, Gandalf.

3. What would I rather be - Envied, Imitated, Trusted, Praised, Liked, Feared?

Trusted of course!

4. Which would I rather study - Centaurs, Goblins, Merpeople, Ghosts, Vampires, Werewolves, Trolls?

Centaurs, because I've always liked Firenze and his way of teaching.

5. So someone has cheated and Prof. Flitwick is asking me about it. Here are my choices - lie and say you don't know (but hope that somebody else tells Professor Flitwick the truth), tell Professor Flitwick that he ought to ask your classmate (and resolve to tell your classmate that if he doesn't tell the truth, you will), tell Professor Flitwick the truth, if your classmate is prepared to win by cheating, he deserves to be found out. Also, as you are both in the same house, any points he loses will be regained by you, for coming first in his place, and you would not wait to be asked to tell Professor Flitwick the truth. If you knew that somebody was using a forbidden quill, you would tell the teacher before the exam started.

I don't fancy being a sneak, so I choose to let Prof. F conduct his own inquiry and speak to the friend in question in private and urge him/her to report the truth.

7. To make up for the abnormally lengthy Q prior, I am asked to choose between a forest and a river.

I figure the river has a cool and soothing presence (long walks on beach *cough cough*).

8. And of course, the staple for so many sortings - heads or tails?

Heads, since I am kind of headstrong.

Now...you know what my sorting Qs were and my responses to them. Can you guess which house I was sorted into?
