A First Year's View of Hogwarts
This is my journal. My name's Hallie and I'm eleven years old. I don't know it yet, but this school year I'll be attending Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.
July 1st
Dear Journal,
It's 11 o'clock in the morning and so far the day sucked. This morning I woke up at seven and my mom had jinxed the computer so I couldn't use it till she got up. Oh and by the way, she started doing that once she found out I was staying up till midnight, saying I was doing homework and then playing games after she went to sleep. So I got up couldn't use the computer so I decided to go up to my room and read for a while till my mom got up (who knows when that will be). I had thought about writing a journal entry but I didn't have much to write about so I decided to a book. When my mom finally woke up she made breakfast but still didn't un-jinx the computer so I had to spend the first few hours of my morning without the satisfaction of being able to go on the computer (I'm such a muggle, I know). And by the way breakfast was even worse than my morning; it was eggs and bacon for the hundredth time this summer. Oy! Well, I have to go for now my parents wants me to go get the mail and eat lunch with them so I'll write in any updates to my day later. Bye.
Later That Day
Hello Journal,
It's me again. It's about 7 o'clock and I finally found a spare minute to write without my parents nagging on me to go and do something. Guess what! Earlier today, in my journal, I wrote that my mom wanted me to go and got the mail, which was why I had to stop writing. Well, anyway, when I went to get the mail take a wild guess who finally got a letter. Me! Oh, and it wasn't just from anyone, it was from Hogwarts (Oh my gosh they finally accepted me!)! My parents totally freaked out. You should have seen them. I couldn't keep them away from me. They were all like "Oh, Robert, our little girl finally got her letter from Hogwarts" and "I told you she'd get into Hogwarts some day just like us, Pearl." I couldn't stand it! You know how some people say "get away you're in my bubble" well they "popped" mine! They made plans to go shopping for my robes tomorrow so I guess I'll go to sleep and I'll write about my day tomorrow. Adios!
Hallie
