Hey again! This is a quick one-shot of what Lily wrote in her diary on her first day:) I did it on my iPod then sent it to myself so sorry if there are any mistakes. I won't carry on with this, but I might write a Lily Evans story [after everything] xx

Dear Diary

Wow! My first day at Hogwarts! It was so good! But wait, I need to tell you what happened lat night...
When Severus and I got off the train we got into little boats with... a giant! A GIANT! Severus says he couldn't be a full giant because he wasn't big enough. Honestly! Bigger? He was very nice but we had to be given to Professor
McGonagall when we got to the castle. Hogwarts is AMAZING. It's so beautiful! Anyway, the professor we got handed to looked rather fierce as she told us everything and how we got sorted. Then we went into the Great Hall! Woweee! Fantastic! Anyway, I got a little nervous so I squeezed Sev's hand. I was one of the first to get sorted. It was rather weird and it didn't take that long. I remember exactly what he said... "Hmm I wonder... No you are not a Slytherin [i was worried then because Sev said that was the best house] but Ravenclaw? No, it has to be GRYFFINDOR!" I was rather pleased, because I hadn't told Sev that I thought Gryffindor sounded quite nice. I sat down at the table and saw that the boy from the train who was rather unkind to Sev had made room for me. I scowled and flopped down, facing the sorting. There were quite a few Gryffindors being sorted. Next it was Black's friend Potter. Would you believe it? He is in Gryffindor too! How can HE be a Gryffindor? I have to see him every single day of my life at Hogwarts. Eurghh, and to make matters worse, Sev was sorted into Slytherin. So I cannot see him as much as I would like because we won't have all our lessons together. But I mustn't be down, I love Hogwarts already! After a really great meal, we headed upstairs to our tower. Wow it is so nice! We stayed downstairs for a bit because we all wanted to know each other. In my dormitory there is Mary, Emmaline, Marlene, Grace and Alice, for the boys there is James Potter, Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, Peter Pettigrew, Frank Longbottom and Edgar Bones. With the boys I only feel I like Remus who likes books. We all went to bed after that as we were all tired. I wondered how Sev was getting on in the Slytherin Dormitory and felt guilty that I was having fun already.
The next morning we got very lost on the way to the great hall for breakfast. It was quite funny. We got our timetables and found that we have Potions with the Slytherins and flying. I do not want to learn how to fly. Potter and Black can't stop boasting and from what I've heard it is really hard. Grace, who seems to be like the Potter gang, says flying is really great. Mary and the others prefer to watch .
I caught up with Sev at break and I told him all about my lessons. He seemed happy that I chose to be with him. He says it's annoying that I'm not in Slytherin as it is the best house. I kept quiet but thought otherwise. We promised to be together at least every break. Sev says he has to see his other friends who are Slytherins because they might get annoyed. All in all it was a great day! They do superb food at lunch and dinner and I haven't got a piece of homework yet!

Lots of love
Lily
