Dear Diary,
Before I pour down my thoughts, I would like to introduce myself. I'm Lily Luna Potter, eleven years old. I have red hair same as my Mum and her eyes too, my grandma says I look exactly like how Mum used to look when she was my age. This is the first time I'll be keeping a diary. Rose (my cousin sister), she told me about how she kept a diary and I wanted to try it too. I asked my Mom to get me a book; she bought me a beautiful brown leather book. And I simply love it!
Since I'm eleven years old, I'll be leaving for Hogwarts this year, on first of September. I was very excited when I got my letter, and this time, I would finally be joining my brothers and rest of my cousins. Though I'm very excited, I'm a little scared too. I hear such great stories from everyone that I feel I won't live up to them. I haven't been able to talk to anyone about it. No, that's wrong; I have spoken to Hugo about it. Just because he's a boy, he doesn't show. But I know that he too feels the same way as I do.
I know both of us are afraid of which house we might be sorted into, I'm hoping its Gryffindor. Almost all my family is sorted in it. Well, except Albus who is in Slytherin, Lucy in Ravenclaw, Louise and Roxy in Hufflepuff. So that's alright I guess, but yet I'm scared.
Well, enough of this now. I want to tell you about my trip to Diagon Alley. And this time, for me! It was so amazing! I had so much fun picking books, buying robes, and mostly, a wand! Yes, I have my own wand now. It's a ten and quarter inches, Pear and unicorn hair! Mum has told me not to use it until I'm in school, but I have been trying few swishing and flicking moments alone and the only magical thing that happened was turning the blinds up and down. I'm not daring enough to try any of the spells though; I'm scared of setting the house on fire. I vaguely remember James doing that when he had first got a wand.
James and Albus are always writing letters to their friends. My family and my cousins are the only people I know, and I love them. But I also want to be friends with an outsider. It would be fun to share secrets with him or her; I'm hoping it's a girl because I'm very shy. Rose has a boy best friend (Scorpius), but Rose is different than I am. I guess, only when I'm there I'll get to know. I wish time starts moving faster, I can't wait to get to school!
I can't think of any more things to write, I have spoken about everything. I'll take a break then, and maybe my next entry will be from Hogwarts. Unless something happens, which I'm sure it will since James has been acting very secretly. Okay, I'll go now.
(Should I sign my name in the end? Umm…I'll just do it. I don't want to, it sounds stupid.)
Well, there you go! First diary entry up. I tried to think as Eleven year oldish as I could. :P
I plan on writing more, unrelated of course. What would you like to read about next?
