Surprise. That's the word that comes to mind when I find out that I am a witch. Well, I guess that it's a family trait because after I received the letter that would change my life, my parents told me that magic is real. How do they know? My mother is a witch, but my father is not. He is what the witches and wizards call No-Maj here in America. But that didn't matter to me; they are my parents after all. Also, I never expected that I would have so many adventures and make so many great friends in another country. But you'd want to hear what happened in detail. So let me tell it right.
