Well … Hello.

I'm Hermione Granger, I'm only ten years old but I am very intelligent for my age. At least that's what the teachers at school say. My mum and dad are both dentists. I don't have any brothers or sisters, though I wish I did, at least I would have someone to talk to. No one talks to me at school, the only people I talk to are my parents and other family members, also teachers. The girls and boys at school tease me, for all sorts of things. It's annoying and it hurts, but I wouldn't admit that to them, sometimes they only do it to make me cry and they usually succeed.

I don't really know what I want to be when I grow up. I have thought about it a lot of times, but I guess I can't be sure.

It's boring being an only child. I grew up with books and knowledge instead of children and fun. But that doesn't mean I don't have fun, I do … books are fun. But I always see the other children playing together and laughing but they would never include me, even if I asked. It hurts a lot. Sure, I have friends, but I have never had a best friend. Just a few people who will talk to me if I really need someone.

My neighborhood is quiet and peaceful, there aren't a lot of kids there, but my next door neighbor is really smart, he gave me two books for Christmas last year. I learned a lot from them.

Nothing's really intresting in my life, I have a normal ten year old life.

A lot of people tease me because strange things happen around me too, but I don't know why. Mum and Dad said I'm just special but I don't think they know why things happen either. A few days ago I was in the kitchen and was very tired as I had only woke up, and suddenly the cup I had been using moved towards me, I didn't touch it or anything. Mum also saw it but she said it must have a trick of light, but I don't see how that's possible.

A lot of people also tease me because I like to learn, I'm the smartest in my class. My teacher was actually considering moving me up a year. But they can't and I guess I would be even more teased, but I don't really mind. I have always wanted to be the best, I always feel like I have to stay the best, I like competition but I don't like getting bet, I don't think I'd say this anywhere but here, because this is a secret diary. I'm only going to write here only when something exciting happens, or something good. I doubt you want to hear about my boring day-to-day life.

Hermione ..
