Holly had been looking forward to this for the whole day, all day her nerves had been on edge, it was after all her first day, her stomach had been in knots every hour of the day
It was only now that she realised how hungry she was, she hadn't eaten for hours, ever since she was on the Hogwarts Express since she had been worried it would come right back up
As she made her way into the Great Hall, she glanced around, noticing that the other students were filtering in through the doors as they gossiped to each other
She was alone, she'd only spoken to a few people through the day, but hadn't exactly made any friends yet, which she wasn't surprised about considering she tended to take her time trusting people
She made her way over to the Ravenclaw table, taking one of the many empty seats, which she guessed was a perk of leaving early to go to dinner
She glanced round at her other housemates, it was easy enough to pick out her fellow first years, there was a general feeling of nervousness and excitement surrounding them
She began to pile some food on her plate, her portions small so she didn't make herself food. After all, while her meals hadn't exactly been small at home, this was another size of food portions
She focused slightly on the gossip around her as she started to eat

Florence Ainsworth one of the Ravenclaws first year was sitting in the great hall. She sat together with some fellow Ravenclaw students that was in her age. She didnt say much when she had arrived at first. She just smiled and sat down, she was too nervous to speak anyway. Perhaps people would thought she was weird if she said something? What should you even talk about?
Florence wasnt used to this kind of situations at all. In the ordinary school at home she would always take her food and go away somewhere alone to eat. And sit alone. But in Hogwarts there wasnt like any empty table. There was more of a long table where there were seats next to each other. And that was kind of scary to a girl that never used to talk to anyone.
She took some food to her plate, she took the things that she regognized. She was quite nervous of trying new stuff. What should she do if she didnt like the food. She couldnt just spit it out. That would not look good as a first impression.
She started eating and then took up one of her books that she had taken from home. The books helped her make her more calm. This book that she was reading this time. Was about two brothers. One of the brothers were sick in TBC and he had just found out that he was going to die. It was quite a horrible start to the book. But Florence really liked the heartwarming feeling between the two brothers.
