Discoveries and Updates on Life

I was really sick last week. My nose spurted out so much mucus that I could actually smell it. And believe me, it smells disgusting. Well, at least I wasn't as sick as I was last month. Last month, I coughed so much that I used up one bag of Halls per day, and when I coughed, I sounded like a dying seal.
That's a seal. Not a shark. A seal.
And at least it cleared up somewhat in time for my AP Spanish exam. I'm bad enough at the hablar portions already...I didn't need a stuffy nose to make me even more incomprehensible.
Well, that kills my New Year's resolution to not get sick at all this year. And it killed it twice! 
Surprisingly, one new year's resolution is still intact, and (believe it or not) it is the resolution to post at least once a month. I've done that!
During the past month of not posting anything (so sorry!), I've discovered many things. I've discovered my future...for the next four years, anyway, academically speaking. I'm going to be in Houston for the next four years. I'm going to Rice University! YAY!
I have also discovered that I am a Ravenclaw. I finally got a Pottermore account two weeks ago, and until I got sorted by the Sorting Hat, I was never sure if I was a Ravenclaw or a Hufflepuff. Now I know! Though I wouldn't have made a good Hufflepuff anyway, seeing that I'm a terrible finder. Entropy, I blame you!
Another discovery I have made is that, as far as children's channels go, Nickelodeon is slightly better than Disney Channel. But only slightly. And that's really not saying much since Disney Channel is crap, regardless of what my sister might think. She had block scheduling recently due to state testing [it's called the CST (California Standards Test) and the STAR (Standardized Testing and Reporting), but I call it the CSTAR--California Standardized Testing and Reporting)], and so, her band teacher allowed them to watch movies during his period. They had to vote on a movie, and they had a choice between High School Musical (blargh) and Mulan (huzzah!).
Speaking of movies, I really want to watch the Avengers. One day...one day, I shall.
I have also discovered that I am an INTJ. Or an INFJ...pretty sure I'm an INFJ, but I get classified as an INTJ very often. I'm either an INFJ or an INFP. I've never been classified as an INFP by a personality test, but the descriptions of an INFP seem to fit me really well. But I'm definitely Judging over Perceiving...I love order and structure...
I think I'm just confused.
