Dear Diary,
One month ago Da came to me very excited on an ordinary evening. He was waving a paper around in his hand and jumping up and down; he was the happiest I'd ever seen him and he kept muttering things about plans falling perfectly into place. He then showed me the paper; it was my Hogwarts letter. Up until that point I had been a homeschooled witch; my father taught me everything I know and because up until a month ago I wasn't allowed to leave our mansion hidden away in seclusion I did not have a wand, therefore all the magic I used was wand less magic; so using my new wand is going to be easy. We went to diagon alley under a disillusionment charm to get my wand, books and a new pet. My wand is twelve and a half inches, beech with a dragon core and it's brittle. We got regular first year books and some extra for some lighter reading. My new pet is a snake (yay!), her name is Levi.
Right now I'm on the train to Hogwarts, I wonder how everyone is going to react to my last name being Riddle, I've heard what my father has done and I don't think I'm proud of it; honestly I don't want to become my Da, he is obviously a killer and I don't want to be though he wants me to follow in his foot prints.
I met a girl named Mirella, she was pretty with blonde hair and blue eyes and she is going into my year. I wonder what house she will get in; she didn't seem too bothered by the snake curled on my lap, that or she didn't see her. Personally I have to get Slytherin or my Da will disown me; besides who has heard of a parselmouths in any other house but Slytherin. I know for sure one of my Da's death eaters son is in my year as well, Draco Malfoy. He was okay I guess when I met him but definitely that pureblood snobbish.
Anyway, we are almost at Hogwarts so I have to go get on my school robes, I can't wait for my sorting!
Love,
Nixie Riddle
