The Great Hall
Just finished my first couple of classes. Everything seems like it will be pretty exciting this year. Even History of Magic! Professor Binns says we'll be learning more about Harry Potter and how he fought the Dark Lord for so long. I can't wait.
The Sorting was awesome last night. The new Ravenclaw first all seem pretty cool. A little snotty maybe, but that's to be expected. The only downer was Professor McGonagall announcing that this might be her last year teaching.
Professor Longbottom is my favorite teacher this year. He says he was good friends with Harry Potter. I believe it, too. Sometimes, he'll tell us about the crazy things they did in their fifth year. I love it, it makes me wish I had those kind of adventures.
I'm not saying life at Hogwarts is boring (how could it be?). I'm just saying that once you get into the routine of things, you kind of wish something more exciting would happen. Hold on, someone wants to talk to me.

Defense Against the Dark Arts
Oh, this is so cool! Harry Potter and his friend, Ron Weasley are visiting! Right now, they're talking about their old Defense teacher, Remus Lupin. I've heard about him before, he sounds like an awesome teacher. Sad thing is, Remus and his wife died in the Last Battle. And they had a kid, too!
Actually… I think their son started here this year. I might have heard wrong, though. I wasn't pay- Mr. Weasley is telling me I should pay attention. Gotta go!
