Harry Potter Sorting Hat: Chip Edition

You walk into the gas station. You want some chips. You browse the aisle. These are your options: Cheetos, Takis, Salt and Vinegar potato chips, Pringles, Doritos Nachos, Sun Chips, Doritos Cool Ranch, Fritos, and Funyuns. You think all this says about you is what you’re craving at the moment and what you like? Wrong. This determines your Harry Potter house. For 7 years. Are you going to end up at the Great Hall table with Draco? Will you end up Wingardium Leviosaing with Hermione? Let your chip choice decide.

Cheetos or Doritos Nachos

If you chose Cheetos or Doritos Nachos, congratulations. You are a Gryffindor. Gryffindor’s are noted for their bravery, courage, and determination. Look. If you eat a bag of Cheetos or Doritos Nachos you’re not getting out of there without orange fingers. It’s just a fact. And it’s also the gift that keeps giving once your bag is finished. You like a good chip, but you also have come to terms with that it’s going to be a bit messy and you’re fine with it. You can take on the task. Mischief managed. It’s a sheer act of bravery. These are two solid classics, and you’re brave enough for the mess.

Salt and Vinegar Potato Chips or Doritos Cool Ranch

If you chose Salt and Vinegar potato chips or Doritos Cool Ranch, congratulations, you are a Ravenclaw! Ravenclaws are noted for their wisdom, wit, and intellect. Okay look. If you’re choosing Salt and Vinegar as your chip choice you’re not an every man. You have ~refined~ taste. You probably watch cooking shows and prefer your hamburger buns toasted. You’re not just grabbing a bag and going with no sense or purpose or order. No. Your tastes are precise and unique. They are complex and thought-out. Although Doritos Cool Ranch is a classic, it is also a very unique chip choice that when you think of it is totally unique. Cheese chips? There’s 50 of those. Find a chip that tastes nothing but everything like ranch with also little pieces that strangely like small pieces of confetti but you shrug and eat them anyway. Yeah there’s only one.

Sun Chips or Pringles

If you chose Sun Chips or Pringles, congratulations, you are a Hufflepuff. Hufflepuffs are noted for their dedication, patience, and loyalty. No one chooses Sun Chips unless you are a loyal fan to them. No one. But those who like them love them. Pringles come in a full can and no one but the most determined can make it through a whole can. Hufflepuffs are generally thought of as like-able, so Pringles are also a perfect chip to share with others and your friends.You can also make chip duck faces with them, so do Hufflepuffs have more fun?

Takis or Fritos

If you chose Takis or Fritos you already know what house you are in. It doesn’t have to be said. Hello Slytherin. Slytherin are known for their ambition, cleverness, and cunning. Let’s take the mess of Cheetos and light it on fire and you have yourself it’s dark cousin: Takis. Gryffindor and Slytherins are actually quite similar, but here is the important distinction: Takis will destroy you and your life. Any mess a Cheeto made, Takis will make 5 times worse. Takis red color will dye your fingers. There’s no hiding if you ate them. And on top of their appearance they are spicy. You make it through a bag of Takis you just did an unofficial audition for Fear Factor. You even rub your eye for one second and you might have to take a trip to the E.R. Congratulations. Your car ride and bag of chips has to make a detour. You don’t care. It’s a challenge you are willing take. If you chose Fritos you knew exactly what you were choosing: violence. Fritos seem sweet. They seem innocent. But you eat a bag and boom comes out the cunning. Your mouth will be ripped to shreds.

Funyuns

If you chose Funyuns you are a dementor.

Harry “King of Hearts” : A Look at Prince Harry’s Interview with James Corden

If you have followed news, with or without trying, the past year you will know that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have stepped down from their royal titles and duties and moved from England to Los Angeles, California. This decision was met with a lot of controversy and public (and surely private) opinion, and how you feel about the matter basically comes down to two categories: whether your loyalty lies more with the Crown and tradition as a whole or whether you value individuality and like the royal family members as individual people. If you are in the boat of the later and liking them as individuals, Harry and Meghan leaving England and their titles to pursue normality, better living conditions, better mental health, safety for their family, and able to pursue their own dreams is surely seen as nothing short of a brave and heroic act.

Harry recently had a segment on James Corden’s show, and let me tell you what: if you grew up being a bigger fan of Prince William, it’s been Harry’s time to shine, and after watching this segment here are reasons why Harry is now OUR KING.

1. Down to earth

James Corden did the interview on top of a tour bus and not only did Harry seem fine with this, but excited, as he had never ridden on an open tour bus before. His easy conversing made Harry seem like an ordinary, but amazing, guy and all around really like-able.

2. Hilarious

Ummm… not a sense of humor! From the start Harry was so quick and witty. But also was gracious, went with the flow, and was not rude when things went wrong… i.e. the tea station falling and James telling him to clean it up.

3. Fit

Wow getting to use British slang all at the same time. Okay but did you see him crush that ropes course? Harry served in the military for 10 years and it shows! His easiness climbing the rope was impressive and him exclaiming after that it was fun and wanted to do it again was really amazing!

4. Open

British royalty has historically been very private and Harry sharing personal stories of Zooming his grandma (THE QUEEN) and his grandfather closing the computer to end Zoom calls were not only amazing stories but added a humanness to the British royal family. Finding out Harry watched The Crown and his comments on it were amazing and insightful.

5. Talks about important topics

Lastly, one of the most impressive and important parts of this interview was his openness and self-awareness… and talking about it! Harry confided that he stepped back from his roles for his mental health. This was impressive as it not only addressed an important topic, shows his awareness of his own self, but did not put any blame or reasoning on Meghan, as the British media was villianizing her and making it seem as though she was the cause.

Harry’s move away from the Crown and to America was a huge move in every way and followed in the footsteps of his mother, Diana. This interview gave us insight into Harry as a real person, and surely, he is the king of our hearts.

How Life Has Fallen Apart Since Keeping Up With the Kardashians has Announced its Ending

Keeping Up With the Kardashians said ABCDEFG I have to go.

The world is on fire. Not in the Backstreet Boys “I Want it That Way” sense. Not in the Covid sense. Because of the protests? No. The riots? No. That’s right because of the U.S. political election. Hah, no. Oh because of the fires all across the western United States? No, no not this. It’s because of an Instagram post on September 9, 2020 posted by user “kimkardashian” that stated:

“It is with heavy hearts that we’ve made the difficult decision as a family to say goodbye to Keeping Up With the Kardashians. After what will be 14 years, 20 seasons, hundreds of episodes and numerous spin-off shows, we are beyond grateful to all of you who’ve watched us for all of these years — through the good times, the bad times, the happiness, the tears, and the many relationships and children. We’ll forever cherish the wonderful memories and countless people we’ve met along the way. …Our last season will air early next year in 2021.”

instagram.com/kimkardashian

We all thought Kanye had the biggest mic drop at the September 2009 VMAs, but almost to the day 11 years later Kim has truly taken the mic, gone up 50 flights, and let that mic go. One second you’re scrolling on Instagram, the next second you’re Googling local therapists and their immediate availability.

via wndu.com

Keeping Up With the Kardashians is a constant in many young people’s lives. Even if you didn’t watch it you had the security knowing it was on TV. That it wasn’t just another show that would be around for a bit and leave. Kris Jenner was all of our momagers. We watched Kendall and Kylie grow up. We watched Khloe turn WWE sessions with her sisters into training sessions with Gunnar Peterson. We watched Kim cry over a diamond in the ocean. Some of the greatest lines in television history were given by Scott Disick. When the Kardashians took their trip to Aspen, we all went to Aspen. Keeping Up With the Kardashians was something that would not go away: it wasn’t MySpace, it wasn’t Keek, it wasn’t Vine. It was the neighbors next door…. far, far away in the very rich neighborhood that you would never know or absolutely never come in contact with. But E! television gave us that opportunity. Ryan Seacrest gave us that. Keeping Up With the Kardashians was one of the few things that has lasted longer than an uneaten McDonald’s hamburger and fries.

So now what? How will we know if the Kardashians still eat salads out of plastic bowls or what if they switch to exclusively glass? How will we know the latest new cool phrase Kourtney is saying? Who will we keep up with? I can’t answer that yet. Thankfully we have one more season to look forward to. Until then, I have found myself watching their Instagram stories since the announcement, which makes my engagement rate with their accounts go up by 100%. Did I take extra long looking at the KKW section at Ulta today? Also, yes. Is this how I’m coping? Am I fine? I don’t know. If you see me organizing Oreos in a glass container and randomly yelling “Liar!” and constantly refreshing the Kardashian/Jenner accounts for new 15 seconds snippets until it’s been 45 minutes, it’s fine.

The Rise of Tie Dye in 2020

Tie-dye has been on the rise in 2020. Here’s how to do it yourself.

If last year someone said tie-dye what would you think? What immediately comes to my mind is a chicken dance and cha-cha lines in a restaurant of seafood otherwise known as Joe’s Crab Shack. Even though I wasn’t the biggest fan of seafood growing up, those brightly colored tie-dye shirts that hung on the wall by the register were what cool kids wore, so I wanted one (but I only went to that restaurant once in elementary school for a birthday party). If someone says tie-dye this year? I immediately think of an influencer or blogger in a cool pastel two-piece set that looks so chic and fashionable even though it is just sweats. Are the influencers that are wearing this new comeback to tie-die just the Joe’s Crab Shack kids grown up? It’s a working conspiracy theory.

Tie-die has stayed through the ages and has reinvented itself and officially made a 21st century trendy comeback. Albeit very cute, a lot of these pullovers and sets are very expensive. Turns out you pay more for half the die on a clothing piece. With quarantine happening this year and more people working from home and finding ways to save money, more people have turned to making homemade tie-dye items. It is not only more economical but extremely fun and not at all difficult to do.

All you will need is:

I would highly recommend getting a tie-dye kit that will come with an array of colors, gloves, bottles, and instructions. They can also be purchased at a local craft store such as Jo-Ann’s or Michael’s. (Another great tip is white or light colored blank shirts can be purchased at a craft store or ordered online).

Once you have your supplies assembled, decide which tie-dye pattern you’d like to do. A swirl? The scrunching method? Monochrome or multi-colored? The great thing is there really is no right or wrong way to tie-dye and every piece will come out custom.

Here’s some videos that are extremely helpful and provide a step-by-step follow-along and can also help you decide what color and style you want for your tie-dye!

Tie-dye everything. Tie-dye your life.
