Dear Diary,
Sometimes it just sucks to be me. First of all, Freddy's off to Hogwarts, and so are a lot of our cousins. It's just me, Lily, Lucy, and Hugo hanging out all day and Grandmum and Granddad Weasley's while all our parents go off to work. Big Ministry person or joke shop owner-all of them, 'cept Aunt Ginny. She works at home, but she still sends Lily to the Burrow. Wants her to interact with us. I like Lily, so that's fine. Sometimes I kind of wish Hugo wouldn't come. I do love him, he's my cousin and all. It's just, he can be annoying. Always talking about getting Dad and Uncle Ron to let us be in the joke shop all alone. Dunno why he would want that, it sounds dangerous. And he seems to like having a dad who owns a joke shop more than a mum who's Minister of Magic! I don't really understand him.
Anyway, Halloween last night, and everyone at Hogwarts gets a great feast, but what do I get? A lot of walking. All my life I've been told trick-or-treating is some great thing the Muggles do where they get free candy. So Grandmum and Granddad took us out while everyone else went to some Halloween party, and after ten minutes my feet hurt. All for Muggle candy, when we could just buy Wizarding candy! I'm alone on this, though; everyone else loved it, especially Granddad.
I guess it isn't that bad. At least I have candy. Which I think I'll go and eat now.
Sincerely,
Roxanne Weasley
