Chapter 1
6 June 1991
Well, school is finally out after nine long months. How anyone can stand a place like that for such a long time, I don't know. That's like almost a whole year. I mean, come on. People have better ways to spend their time than to sit and stare at a teacher for 7 hours. Not that I do, mind. My sister, Niko, and I are usually reading or, in Niko's case, daydreaming about guys. Well, nohting more to talk about, or should I say write? I don't know. That's not the point. My point is, I'm going to stop until SOMETHING exciting happens around here, which most likely won't happen since living in the country side of Ireland is very boring... Bye-bye!!!

THIS CAN NOT BE HAPPENING!!! I am no witch! No, no, no! This Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry has got it wrong! There is no such thing as magic, or wizards, or anything like that! Nothing! This has got to be some kind of joke! I mean, even Niko got the letter! This is just some sick joke my parents are playing at. But why would they want to do something like this? I think I'll go ask them...
Later
Ok. This is not funny! My parents said they had nothing to do with the letter. So, I guess that means it's true. I am a witch and I'll just have to accpet that. My mom even agreed to take Niko and me shopping for our supplies that are required. Where will we find these things though? You defiantly can't buy all this stuff at the local drugstore. Maybe we can find other witches or wizards who can tell us... And I have to go all the way to Englandfor this school! Not fair! Why couldn't it be closer to home?! I hope my sister will be able to handle this better than me... I hope I'm not stuck with being to strong one... Well, goodnight. Hopefully when I wake up in the morning, this'll have all been a dream.
