Dear Diary,
My first day at Hogwarts went... oh, how to say it. Not great. It wasn't terrible, sure, but the class schedule was awfully confusing. I mostly listened to Rose, who claims she knows everything; that was a mistake, I have to say. Rose is a first-year too, why did I trust her? She got us lost. On the first day. That was just for the classes we had together, of course, since we're not in the same house. Rose thinks Hufflepuff house is a bit silly, but I disagree. I like it here. The other people are nice. James sure thought it was funny. He just loves being a Gryffindor. Thinks he'll make prefect, too. Oh, maybe he will, but I really don't care. At least I get to be in the same house as cousin Victoire, who is probably the nicest of all our cousins. Head Girl, too! Though she says if I get in trouble she still won't be able to get me out of it. That's rather annoying. Dominique said she'd do it for her own sister, and Victoire said no, not even for her. She also said that she didn't like Teddy, though, so Victoire is a liar.
I wrote home already. James thought I was being silly, that it's ridiculous to write home on the first day. But I wanted to say something to Mum and Dad, and to Lily. She must be lonely there. It was awful when James went off, and me being too young; it's got to be worse for her. I heard Mum talking to Dad before we left about how being the youngest sibling and watching all of your older siblings go off makes you romanticize the idea. I'm afraid Hogwarts might be a bit of a disappointment for Lily. Then again, it was just one confusing day. Maybe it'll get better.
I should be going off to dinner now.
Sincerely,
Albus Severus Potter
