My name is Jake I am 15 and go to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. I like it there a lot. It is practically my home. I grew up in a middle class family from America. My parents were divorced last year. This didn't have a huge effect on my life except now my dad complains constantly and my mom can't afford a lot of things. I love waking up everyday to the smell of filth and dirt. This is because I know when August comes around I will be back in Hogwarts. This year will be my 5th and I am super excited. Most 5th years are frightened because of Owl's. I'm not scared. I keep telling myself they're just tests.
It is July 28th and I am very angry at my dad. All day today he made me do muggle chores. I can't wait until I can do magic again. I miss magic. Tomorrow I get to go get a Magical creature for my 16th birthday. I heard they have found some rare unicorns in the rainforest. I heard the baby ones are cheap so I think I will buy one of these. Although they say they're cheap because there parents abandon them and they are not in there natural habitat so they die quickly. I happen to know mine won't. This is because of Hagrid. He taught me how to take care of them Hagrid is my half-brother. His dad impregnated my mom right before his tragic death. Of course my mom being an expert sorcerer made an elixir of life and slipped it to him the day before. I feel bad Hagrid doesn't know his dads alive but I think it wouldn't be fair to tell him now.
