App part 1

I haven't bought the books yet but I have enough knuts, I'm just waiting for Holly to finish updating Diagon.

House: 
Slytherin
Best Trait: 
Determination. Once I've decided I want something, I get it. Nothing can stand in my way. 
Worst Trait: 
I'm quite judgemental but I'm trying my best to fix that.
What would you want your animal form to be most capable of? 
Migration. I was tempted to put 'flight' but that seemed so vague - a garden bird, for example, doesn't quite fit me (lovely as they are!). Every so often, I go a little crazy from staying in the same place for too long. Whether you call it wanderlust, escapism, or a holiday, I have to get away. Even a train journey to the coast for a few hours walking along the cliffs fixes my mood. I've lived in three countries and I'm only twenty one, so maybe that has something to do with it. My family always say I'm the most adventurous person they know but I'm not sure that's true - I'm not driven to experience new things, it's just something innate in my character that needs to get to the sea. I wish I could better explain it because it's more than just needing a holiday. If I can't afford to even go to the next town for a day then I get physically ill. I start imagining my entire body's itching and my head feels like it's going to explode.
Choose one of the following -- Air, Water, Earth Water. 
Water. I said above about my need for an escape and most often it's the sea that calls me. It's not the beach or anything like that - I'm just as happy walking along the cliffs or scrambling across the stony beaches of the Wirral as I am on a sandy beach. I don't even need to be able to go in the sea to appreciate it - as long as I can feel the sea breeze on my cheeks and I can taste the salt, I'm satisfied. I do love to swim though. I've been swimming for as long as I can remember - neither of my parents learnt to swim early on so they made sure both my brother and I did. My brother never took to it the way I did though. I was good. That sounds so arrogant but it's true. I competed for a while but I never liked it much - I much prefer a lazy breaststroke* and the time to appreciate my surroudings over a spring sprint that's over before it's begun. Ever since I was a child my most commmon dream has been that I'm swimming, and I still dream that to this day. Once I dreamt that I was flying home from school but 'flight' was just swimming out of water. That's why I've chosen water over the others.
*This is not completely true. My 'lazy' breaststroke is still ridiculously fast XD I used to like swimming past kids I hated and accidentally kicking them in the face. But I don't do that now, now I just splash them a bit.
