Ok, well everyone needs to thank Magic Wonders for talking me into updating before I got to caught up in school. So here you all go. Oh yeah, I'm explaining some of the people in this chapter.

Magic Wonders: thank you for reviewing and updating your story. Everyone who is reading this story should check hers out as well. "A Bushel of Problems" is what it is called.

Thankfully it was a Saturday so nobody had to worry about classes and such. Today was not only Brian's birthday but it was also one of the few Hogsmeade trips they had that year. There was already a huge crown outside the castle when Hermione, Draco, and Jordan arrived. Harry and Ron saw them and walked up.

"Hey Hermione, you guys all want to hang out today?" asked Harry.

"Sure Harry, I guess we could do that." Hermione replied.

They walked the short distance to the village and went straight to The Three Broomsticks to order butterbeers. They had to pull four tables together just for them all to be able to sit next to one another. They spent the rest of their time in Honeydukes and Zonko's Joke Shop. At one point Draco ran off saying he "had to get something for potions" and found the group a half hour later still in Zonko's. When it was time to go back to the castle everyone had bags full of goodies from Honeydukes and pranks from Zonko's. Harry and Ron were quick to run off up to the Gryffindor common room to sort through their stuff and decide if they should make a list of things to buy from Fred and George's joke shop.

"Well I had fun," Hermione said when they reached the prefect common room.

"Yeah me too," everyone coursed.

"Hey Morgan, can I ask you a few questions?" asked Ginny, who was invited up by Hermione.

"Sure, what's up?" she answered.

"I was just wondering," Ginny paused, "What is it like where you live? What is your family like? What do you do in America when you're not in school?"

"I thought no one would ever ask." Morgan giggled, "Well I live with my dad most of the time in town so it's pretty noisy, but when I go to my mom's it's usually fairly quiet since she lives in the country. My family… well my dad's side is kind of, ummm, non-social with my mom. They just don't ever talk at all, it's like my mom doesn't exist when it comes to my dad's family. My mom's side is very outgoing, the whole family. They love going on family outings, everybody that is a friend is considered family to them which makes it one BIG family. When I'm not at school I usually go out with friends, like to the movies. Family outings are one thing that we do often. I also go horse-back riding with my mom and Jordan."

"Wow, what about you Jordan?" Ginny asked leaning forward.

"Nosey aren't we?" laughed Jordan. "I live with my parents' equal amount of time. Town life one week, country life the next. It sounds like it would get confusing but really it don't. You know how my mom's side of the family is, but my dad's side is different from Morgan's. I'm always away from the house with friends or with my dad, and when I'm here. During the time I'm not at school I go horse-back riding when I'm at my mom's house and swimming, go to the movies, hang with friends, and go places with Ben when I'm at my dad's house."

"Sounds exciting!" Ginny said leaning further forward. "Tell me about you Ben."

"Tell you about me… where do I begin." He started, "Well I'm an only child with divorced parents. My mom has full custody of me and is WAY too protective over me. My dad on the other hand just tells me to go for it… no matter what it is, most of the time at least. Both parents live in the country so it's not much different at either house. At my dad's we cut hay and at my moms I ride my dirtbike. During most of the summer I'm out in the fields helping my dad, or on vacation with him. Other times I'm at my moms riding my dirtbike and playing with my dog, Sammy. On some weekends my dad and I take Jordan out."

"Hmmm, that's cool. Alison you next then it's your turn Michelle." Ginny said.

"I am obsessed with squirrels and the color purple. I live in Whispering Valley where we have close neighbors but not too close. It can be loud out there at times when there are parties and stuff, most of the time it's fairly quiet. My family is just weird like me and that includes my cat, dog, and the squirrels that live in the tress at my house. During the summer I go to Branson or stay at home and watch the squirrels play in the backyard while I'm on the computer. That's pretty much it, I can't think of anything else at least." Alison said thoughtfully.

"I live right outside of a town but it's really quiet out there. My mom and dad are just embarrassing and my sister is challenged, she didn't have enough oxygen before she was born, which means she has to go to a special school. I ride my horse most of the summer and I show her in local horse shows. I hang out with people, go to fairs, and go to horse races at Fairmount Park." Michelle concluded.

"Wow, really! I've never seen a horse up close. Unicorn I have but not a horse. Alison you are weird, spending most of your time watching squirrels in your backyard when you could be out somewhere enjoying yourself." Ginny said looking amazed. "Now I must ask, what is a computer?"

"A computer is a muggle electronic. You came find information on things like you would out of a book and you can email people like you would owl a letter to some one, just the person you are sending the email to will get that a lot faster than they would an owl. It's easy to use for most people, but there are some out there that don't know how to even turn one on." explained Kelli.

I know it's not long enough for you, but I'm sorry. I'll update ASAP!
