I could not sleep last night I was so excited to go to school in the wizarding world I started to look over my cases to make sure I had my name on clothes and had all of my books. my step dad drove me to the station my mom and sister came along. but my brother stayed behind to play video games with his friends. When we arrived at the station my family did not know where platform 9 3/4 was I saw some girl running into a wall but when I got there. they're were many muggle tourists around I told my family that was with me we had to wait for them to disperse a little. As soon as we got through that tide of people my sister quickly said goodbye to me gave me a hug and kiss goodbye and she ran to the car crying. I took my time to say goodbye to my parents they told me to write and call them I told them I would try if I was not busy and then I boarded the train. It was hard but according to what I had been told it was worth it. It was still a few minutes before the train was due to start so I went looking for a inpte room to sit in and Wait for it to start moving.

Sunny gave his Aunt Bee one more hug, and narrowly dodged another peck on his cheek and eyebrow. "Aunt Bee, Aunt Bee," he grumbled breathlessly, struggling to get enough oxygen between her hugs. When he finally gained a little room from her embrace, her eyes were wet.
"Write to your family," she reminded him.
"I will," he groaned.
"And write to me," she reminded him.
"I will," he complained in the same tone.
At last, the parting was done, and he waved goodbye and picked up his luggage with an old airport luggage tag still on it, and neared the platform, turning his back to her in order to wait for the train. After a few more minutes, he turned back to look at where she had been standing, and saw that she had begun to leave, since the train would come soon. Some families waited around for the last minute to say their goodbyes, but his family did things this way.
He felt a little lonely, so he sidled next to a young woman with medium-length blue and silver hair. There was a moment where he wondered if the blue and silver were her house colors.... ravenclaw? He wasn't sure.
He opened his mouth to say hello to her, but nothing came out.
He tried again, and this time managed some voice. "Hello," it came out a little small.
He felt nervous around girls, but kept trying to tell himself his Aunt's advice that girls were people too, and also, that his Aunt was a girl, and he didn't have trouble talking to her.

I was laying down and heard the door slid open.i set up and I look at him and said hi shyly to him. All the seats are getting full, can I sit with you?", he said. I said yes and told him he could sit across from me.i started to look out the window and was watching everyone. I want to speak to him but was trying to figure out how I was nervous and shy because he was a boy.later on the Hogwarts trian is moving through the country side. A trolley comes by the room with sweets. I really love sweets!
Anything off the trolley a woman ask. I would I piped up asking for Bertie botts every flavor beans. There was chocolate,pappermint , spinach and one that tastes like vomit and that's when I stop eating the jelly beans, also got chocolate frogs. I was going to ask the boy if he would like anything but he was looking away.i open my chocolate frog and it jumped out and landed on the boy. I was so imbaeris and my cheeks turn pink. I speak and said I am so sorry I forgotten they did that. I took it from him and started to eat it. I decided to lay down and get some sleep. I close my eyes and thought of what house I wanted to be in.

OOC: Just realized you wrote that the Stacey had boarded the train and in my last post I made it so that the train hadn't arrived yet. Let's shore things up with Stacey having boarded the train just like you wrote her, sorry about that!
The girl that Sunny was standing next to wasn't Stacey, but another girl who had died her hair in temporary raven-claw hair coloring. Sunny was just about to say something, but she pulled out her earphones and snarled that she wanted to be left alone; there were some other words like she didn't like first years or she wasn't feeling well, Sunny didn't catch all of it between the music and the general noise of the station. Sunny guessed that it just wasn't her day, so he slipped around her and boarded the train like the other kids. He didn't have too much luggage, but he didn't feel self-conscious about it. The packing list had made him feel like he was on more equal footing with the other students.
Once he had boarded the train, Sunny tried to find an empty booth to sit in, not knowing anyone, but there simply weren't any, so he found a car with a young woman who didn't look like she would snarl at him for talking, and tried to make sure it was ok to sit with her, first.
"All the seats are getting full, can I sit with you?", he squeaked at Stacey, very nervous. He felt so small compared to the other students who he guessed had been in England for a long time.
