Hogwarts Express
It's been just over 10 years since the downfall of the Dark Lord. Things have gone back to normal. Well… as normal as the wizarding world ever was. The famous Harry Potter and his friends now work for the Ministry. Funny, huh?
In the history books it says Harry had a bit of a thing against the Ministry, it had something to do with a couple of previous Ministers. But I'm not here to tell you about that, no. I'm here to tell you what Hogwarts is like nowadays.
My name is Adison Julie White. I'm going to be in my third year at Hogwarts School for Witchcraft and Wizardry this year. I'm in Ravenclaw. Some teachers say I remind them of Luna Lovegood.
I'm writing this while I sit on the Hogwarts Express, alone in a compartment. I don't mind, though. I've always preferred my own company to others, actually. Most people at Hogwarts these days… well, they act like the Muggle girls I see over the summer. Gossip, fake, whatever. They just aren't the kind of people I prefer to be around.
Okay, what else should I tell you? Maybe I should just let you figure out things about me as the year goes on… Nah, that'll be too frustrating.
I'm a big Quidditch fan. I'm pretty good at it, too. But, I hate the competition that arises during the Quidditch season at Hogwarts, so I don't compete. I always watch, though.
I'm one of the top witches in my year. That's only because I love lear-
Whoops, train is slowing down. I haven't even changed yet! Crap. I'll talk to you tomorrow, promise!
