A/n: I really didn't think I'd continue this, but I got two good reviews the first day part one was posted so here's the next part. Yes, two parts in one day.

Dear Diary,
I finished applying to schools today. I applied to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in England, the Levington School of Magic for Girls in Canada, and the Crawford School of Magic in upper state New York. My dad sent them out by owl as soon as I finished. Then he handed me applications for the Quincy Academy in Quincy, Massachusetts, Grindale House for Girls in Germany, and Calae Academy in California. I'm beginning to think this is a little pathetic. My whole family is counting on me to return magic to the family. They'd be so proud of me if I did get accepted. Maybe one of these days I'll ask why everybody's counting on me. On second thought maybe I'll ask now.
Well, according to my mom, there was a prophecy spoken a long time ago back in the Middle Ages. I'll copy it down here.
Come to ravage, Come to kill
One earthly shadow doomed,
To rule all time as hatred's tool
Undignified and cruel.
Beware, O shadow, of your distaste
For that shall ruin thee,
And for all time
Your name despised
And terrible to see.
Scary isn't it? Anyway, my whole family is convinced that I'm destined to stop the "shadow," which was supposed to have stolen the family's magic. Then, I'll have restored the family magic. Anyway, it's time for me to go to bed.
