Sirius' House

Look at Harry and Draco. Harry knows almost nothing about Draco. I would 
assume Draco knows more about Harry from his father and other people, and he grew 
up in the WW. Harry's best friend was Ron. I wonder how much Ron and Harry 
would have stayed best friends if Harry was put in Slytherin.

Look at Sirius and James in the pensive. They were happy and looked like 
great friends. First of all, Sirius' hated his family from the age of 15 or so 
meaning that there was some reason that he and his family had diagreed on 
something. I would probably have to say that Sirius was in Gryffindor.

People can say that Lupin was in Ravenclaw, James in Gryffindor, Peter in 
Hufflepuff, and Syrius was in Slytherin, which wouldn't be such a bad story to 
follow. It's just like the story between the four founders of the houses. And 
I'm sure that would make a much better story than Peter, James, Lupin, and 
Syrius in Gryffindor.

Also, Syrius would have dormed with Snape, and I don't think such animosity 
would have developed between them if they were living in the same room. I 
assume that if you are the head of a house, you were in that house when you 
attended the school. Who knows, maybe Snape was in Ravenclaw. We don't know 
everything.

I like Snape, and I can't really blame him for being the way he is. He's a 
teacher. He hasn't had a happy life, and like Dumbledore said, that there are 
some cuts that are too deep to heal. I'm sure in our lives there is something 
that has been done to us that we don't want to forgive people for. And Harry is 
a living reminder of the pain he once felt.

We have never seen Snape near one of the demetors, maybe we have, but it 
hasn't been mentioned exclusively. Maybe he would go into fits just like Harry. 
Harry has memories of Dudley and his parents death, but Snape has these sad sad 
things deep down inside that you can't blame him for.

Slytherin is a house for ambitious people, not evil ones. So Snape's ambition 
is getting the DADA job?
