Dear Diary,
October first, 2000
I don't really beleive it, yesterday, I received a letter from a place supposedly called "Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry" here's what it said.
Dear Miss Granger,
We are pleased to inform you that you have been exepted to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
And then it went on about how I need cauldrons, and magic books, and a wand for school. I've never been the sort to beleive in wizards,witches, and all that rubish.Though, now I'm reconsidering everything that I've always beleived in. I mean it could just be a big joke and all, but I do find it odd that the letter arived by owl. I've heard of carrier pigeons, but never carrier owls! I have always thought myself different. But definetly not as different as magical. Also, the letter talks about some sort of shopping center in London called "Diagon Alley". I've never really loved shopping, but I've certainly heard of most of the stores, but never hearing of Diagon Alley. And to make it even more confusing, it would probubly be impossible for a whole culture of people to disguise themselves forever, or as long as they've been around. But they wouldn't have to do so much disguising if they were just a cult...what if they wan't only to use me as a sacrificial victim?Or what if they wan't to enslave me? But my mum sais it's fine, and I've always, always, always been able to trust my mum. She sais she had a freind who got a similar letter, and has read up on the subject. She wasn't able to find much on it, just bits and peices. It could be wonderful, or I guess it could be horrid. Whatever it is, I have to go. Bye!
Yours,
Hermione
Dear Diary,
I haven't written in a few days, but there was nothing to write about. The whole thing IS real!I'm so exited.Today I wen't with my parents to Diagon Alley . We met people there, and they showed us where we needed to go to get the best qualitiy of what we needed.There was Madam Malkin's where they sold robes, and fitted you.There was a tape measurer that floated in mid- airand did all the measuring by it's self. How wierd is that? And there was this wonderful bookstore called Flourish and Blotts, It had ancient leather- bound books, and then new ones that were equally cool. I can't wait to read Hogwarts: A History it looks really interesting. Then I went to Ollivander's. It's a wand shop. It was so fun there, I tried out different wands, and when I got the right wand, I made a box levitate! It was an exausting day, and I must get some sleep. Goodbye.
Sincerely,
Hermione
Dear Diary,
Oh my god, today is the day! Today, I go to King's Cross Station, Platform 9 3/4. Nine and three quarters does sound a bit strange, but i guess it's real since Diagon Alley was. We're about to leave, but I'll pick back up writing when I get on the train.

Dear Diary,
I'm back.Guess how you got on the platform! By passing through the barrier between nine and ten!(A/N sorry for using so many exclamation marks) Sounds difficult doesn't it, but there's a first time for everything. At the time, though I didn't know what I was supposed to do. I got very, very frustrated. I was standing next to the barrier, and i kind of slammed my luggage cart into it, very much to my surprise, I wen't through. when I first saw the train it was amazing, It's huge and scarlet. I went inside the train, and found a compartment. They brought around carts with snacks piled on snacks, mostly candy. There were these things called chocolate frogs, they were bewitched to actually squirm around like frogs. I thought them disgusting. There were Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans. I tried one and got pistachio. Apparently I was lucky. Then a boy named Neville lost his toad. I went to go ask people in other compartments if they had seen it, everyone said no. I came to a certain compartment, stopped and talked for a while. The boys in the compartment were Ron Weasly, and Harry Potter. I guess there was something special about Harry from the way Ron was acting. Maybe not, but atleast he was kind of hott. We're ariving! I'll tell you all about it later.
