The Diary of Elizabeth Rose

Today I start my journey to Hogwarts, my new school. My father was upset when I got my letter. He didn't say it outloud but I could see it in his eyes. I don't want to leave him but he said it's a good idea to go to this school. From what I was told and read I am a muggle-born which means both my parents dont have magic. I should tell you my name, Elizabeth Rose. I am writing this on the train ride to my new school. I should go now that we are close. I need to change into my robes. I will write more later.

Hello again, it has been crazy… After getting off the train all of us first years were led to boats. As we were riding the boats we could see the school (which looks like a castle.) Once off the boats we were led into what they call the great hall which was pretty with floating candles. There were four long tables and one big table where the teachers sat. When they called my name finally I was sorted into Ravenclaw. Being in this dorm room with two other girls is crazy. I'm used to being in a room by myself. Tomorrow is the first day of classes so I should got to bed now.

My first week of school has been weird. I feel like I'm going to be behind in all my classes because I really don't know what my teachers are talking about. I have written to my father the first night but I have yet to hear anything from him. I have been spending so much time in the library after classes studying trying to understand what is being taught. I'm starting to think this school is not for me or is it always hard for people like me. Anyways I should get back to studying.

School has been getting better. I'm starting to understand my classes. Today was the first day of flying (which I didn't like one bit). I have heard back from my father that he misses me and he got a cat to keep him company since I am not there. I have been spending a lot of the time in the library reading. My roommates are nice. I really dont talk to them since we have nothing in common. They are more into their looks instead of studying. I should finish my charms homework now.

Its me again, this past week all it has done is rain which I love sitting at my window watching the rain. My lessons are getting better. I can now answer any questions my teachers ask. I still don't have any friends spending all my time in the library or the common room. I have joined a book club which I hope to make friends with. My father has been proud of me with my grades. The cat (whose name is Simba) is getting big. My father sent me a picture of her. There is a boy in my grade that's been acting weird. I really don't know his name but know he is in Slytherian.

I am sorry for taking so long to write. I have been sick (I got the flu just my luck). The nice lady in the hospital wing help me alot. I'm worried about how behind I am with my school work but my teachers told me to get them in when I can. I have started a book called “The History of Hogwarts” which I enjoy a lot. Last time I wrote I was talking about a strange boy. I have found out that his name is Tom Riddle. He sits alone in classes and in the library. I have been thinking about sitting with him BUT I get a feeling that something is off with him. Anyways I should get started on my homework now.

I have caught up with my work!!! So I am spending this weekend outside before it gets too cold. My father sent me my favorite book “The Hobbit” so I will spend the weekend reading. I have sent him a list of books I would like for him to send me (poor owl). Anyways it feels weird having a weekend of not doing anything. The other students have started to go to Hogsmeade. I wish I could go but I'm not a 3rd year yet. I should start this book so I can finish it by tomorrow. Oh while I am thinking about it I was partnered with Riddle for the rest of the school year for potions.There is something different about him always writing in a notebook that he keeps hidden from everyone.

This week has been crazy. So last weekend I spent most of the weekend outside reading. I found my ideal spot by the lake so with my favorite snacks and a blanket I spent most of my time out there. So the update about Riddle is still a huge mystery. I have noticed that he doesn't talk to anyone at all. He is still writing in that notebook and he thinks he the smart on in our whole year always trying to be a teacher's pet.

It has been awhile since I have written… Things haven't been going well. Right at the beginning of December my father got ill. The headmaster let me take my exams early to go home to my father. A week after I got him he died. I didn't want to leave my bed. I had to move in with my aunt which is fine I guess I have a new room. Anyways I'm on the train back to school once again. I got to bring Simba with me. She is curled up on the seat beside me sleeping. I think this is the last time I will write for a while.
