Hey everyone! New Scorrose fanfiction, as you can see. :)
Anyway, please tell me what you think. The first chapter is a bit short, but I like it better that way. Next chapter is coming up soon, and it will be longer!
Thanks!

Diary Entry #1
My name is Rose Weasley, and I'm a Ravenclaw.
This doesn't necessarily mean that I was the brightest girl in at Hogwarts, or that I got perfect grades. I was decent in many classes, and I struggled in Charms, or Herbology. But I knew how to get what I want. Albus reckons that I should be in Slytherin. But I'm nice to people, I just know how to manipulate them.
I definitely don't use that to my advantage, I'd feel horrible doing that! I just pride myself in the fact that I understand people better than most people.
Anyway, I'm starting 6th year, and I'm actually very nervous. Usually, I can get by easily, but last year was OWL year, and it was horrible. I got decent grades, but, needless to say, Mum was disappointed. Luckily, I just managed to qualify for Charms, which is useless, but necessary to be a Healer. I want to be a Healer, but I don't really want to treat people. I mostly want to create cures on my own. I'm amazing at Potions, but I don't understand why Charms is needed. But luckily, I have come up with a plan based on my new observations.
There are those people who struggle in classes, and they just get by. Then there are the people who are good at everything. So, I have concluded that in order to pass Charms, I must be good at everything. Even things that I don't like, such as choir, or things that I don't have time to do, like Quidditch. I made a list of things that I am going to do this year:
1) Get on the Quidditch Team as a beater. That's right. Girls can be beaters too.
2) Talk to Uncle Neville about Herbology whenever I can. Try to learn as much as you can in order to do well in Herbology.
3) Become friends with Scorpius Malfoy, then use his Charms skills (which are amazing, according to Al) to my advantage. Do this through Al, seeing that they are best mates.
4) Talk more often in class, don't hesitate to look stupid.
5) Stay up late. You won't drop dead if you go to sleep at 11 every day, if it's for a good cause.
6) Don't procrastinate. Do your homework whenever you can.
7) Join the charms club. Because you are really bad at charms.
8) Save your money, don't spend it on ridiculous things. And especially don't let Al convince you to spend it on ridiculous things.
9) Keep your room clean. Don't be lazy, pick up your clothes.
Alright, I think that 9 things are enough for now. Let's see if I can keep up with these, shall we?
I picked up my diary and walked over to my bed, shoving it underneath the mattress. I don't have anything to hide, I would just prefer that nobody saw it. It would make me seem like a stereotypical girl, who likes to spill all of her feelings and thoughts onto paper. I'm just using my diary to be organized.
I glanced at the clock. It flashed 10:45 PM. Alice and Dea were sound asleep, Alice on her back, neatly, and Dea drooling onto her pillow.
I chuckled to myself, and slipped under my sheets. It was my first night back at Hogwarts, so I might as well sleep.
Don't forget to review! :)
