Wednesday, September 3rd – Home
Am I crazy or did I just receive a letter from a MAGIC SCHOOL?
That's right, I woke up, had my diary shower, got dressed and when I went downstairs to have breakfast, I saw a little letter lying on the floor.
I grabbed it and it said.
To Miss Joana Thermopolis
Bedroom
And then my address!
Is this NORMAL? It was sent to my BEDROOM?
At first I thought it was a joke, but then I read it.
We are pleased to tell you that you have been invited to Hogwarts' School of witchcraft and Wizardry. We had some problems with contacting you before September 1st (usually the first day of school) due to some problems we've had.
We changed our date to September 5th, in which you will have to catch the Hogwarts Express (King's Cross, London) until 11 o'clock.
We expect you to bye your books and school supplies. The list is annexed to this letter.
You will be able to change your muggle money into Galleons in the Wizard Bank: Gringotts, in Diagon-Alley.
Thank you for your patience,
Minerva McGonagall
Co-Headmistress
Muggles is the name wizards call non-magic people.
Is this some kind of a joke? Is anyone trying to call me a witch?
No, it isn't a joke. Mom just told me a cousin of her was invited to, years ago.
Me: And WHY didn't you ever tell me?
Mom: Because I didn't think it was important. Besides, you were supposed to be invited when you were11, and you're 15 now.
Me: Maybe they think I'm such a freak, I wouldn't be able to study such a difficult thing at eleven!
Mom: I'm sure it has nothing to do with that.
Me: So, do you know WHERE are we going to buy this stuff?
Mom: I don't, but my cousin does.
So, today I'm not going to school, in order to meet mom's cousin (my second cousin) and get to Diagon-Alley.
I can't believe I'm a witch!
I guess I'm happy. Magic is cool! Besides, being a witch, I won't be able to be the princess of Genovia!
Wednesday, September 3rd – Home, after shopping
So, mom's cousin is sort of cool. She's a reporter at the Daily Prophet (Wizarding World's best newspaper). She told me the pictures would move and all! It's so cool!
The only problem about her is she was always mentioning this Rita Skeeter, a "despicable woman that should never work in the Prophet ever again".
She bought so many things in London and then apparated in NYC!
Mom already told my dad and you know what? I WON'T HAVE TO BE THE PRINCESS ANYMORE! Grandmère will have to adopt someone else to do it!
I won't go back to Albert Einstein, at least not as a student and I can't tell Lilly for now.
OH MY GOSH! I completely forgot! I have a date with Daniel on September 5th!
I've got to do something about this!
AND WORST! Being in Hogwarts all the time, I won't be able to be with him until Christmas!
Wednesday, September 3rd – Bedroom
I talked to Daniel. Our date will be tomorrow. He doesn't know yet, but I'll tell him about Hogwarts.
I guess I'll never be with him.
I better go to bed.
Thursday, September 4th – Bedroom
I'm the luckiest girl in the world.
I explained everything to Daniel and he understood! And you know what? I'm his new GIRLFRIEND! Yeah, girlfriend!
After he kissed me, I told him we wouldn't have time to see each other, but all he said was "I'll wait for you."
AWWWWWW!
I love him so much!
Ok, I have to catch my plane to London in order to be there at eleven. I'll write in you later.
