Closed The time I saw the Great Lake

Monday

The Great Lake. Some people from Hufflepuff told me how pretty it is. Growing up, I always liked lakes. Where I grew up, we didn't have that much nature in the area, but sometimes, my Dad would drive Ma and me to the outskirts of London to fish in his favourite lake. It was pretty fun, even though I wouldn't say I like fish.

I decided to go to the Great Lake alone, telling my friends that I'd be back in a while. They didn't think I'd be the outdoorsy type (I enjoy the outdoors, but I prefer the indoors), but I went along anyway.

It was pretty cold that day. I decided to wear my coat and head out. The wind blew in my face hard and I wished I'd brought mittens and a hat! After a bit of walking, I finally reached the lake.

It was just as beautiful as my fellow housemates had told me. It was sparkly, with water as clean as day. I decided to sit down and enjoy the view. The wind made it hard for me, but I could honestly care less.

I think I'm gonna enjoy my time at Hogwarts, you know.
