Still Room for 2 More

Well I have two room mates and room for 2 more. So far my Slytherin room mates are Daisy Scrimgeour and Narcissa Shrivelfigs. We are just starting to get acquainted. I'm sure they are both fun girls and I look forward to getting to know them better this term. We have a huge room dorm room so I hope it fills up. Our common room is actually kind of creepy, there are no windows because it is under the lake and there are skulls everywhere. The color is perfect however; green!

Old Friend

I can't believe it. Today as I was strolling the halls trying to learn these new halls I ran in to an old friend Clidonia Acromantula. Clidonia is awesome. I wish I would have known she was coming to Hogwarts. She got sorted in to Hufflepuff (my old house). I would have loved to have her as a room mate.

I'm still waiting to see who my Slytherin housemates will be. Everyone else is walking around in their robes so I guess I better get out of this muggle gear and start looking the part!

HSKS5 Accepts New Students

WOW! I can't believe it. HSKS5 has room for more students. If you knit and like to have a lot of fun, this is the place for you. There aren't too many spots left so head on over to the main site and see what you need to do to register. You won't want to miss one more minute of the fun!

The Halls are a BUZZ!

There are students EVERYWHERE here at Hogwart's. I can't believe how busy the halls are. Everyone is moving about saying hello to old friends and making new friends. We are all really excited for the new students to arrive later tonight and to be sorted. I'm sure the houses will fill up quickly. There definitely is not much room left in Ravenclaw dormitory or the Slytherin dormitory.

Has anyone noticed how many Emma's are in Ravenclaw this semester? WOW~I don't know how we are going to keep them all straight.

I think there may be something going on in the Great Hall at some point today so I'm going to keep checking in...maybe I'll be able to catch the Sorting Hat ceremony!

Inter-House Unity Scholarship

WOW! Today was quite a day. Returning students were given the opportunity to apply for an Inter-House Unity Scholarship. This scholarship allows students the opportunity to be sorted in to a new house at Hogwarts. This is this a great opportunity to interact with student's we normally wouldn't get to interact with.

I am happy to say that I was the recipient of one of these scholarships and I am now a proud member of Slytherin! I'm really nervous and excited about this semester. I can't wait until all of the students are here. I wonder who my room mates will be?

I guess I'd better get new robes at Diagon Alley this weekend!

Long Lost Owl

I am so sad today. My owl Snowy is missing! I sent her out on March 26th with a wonderful package to deliver to my secret pal Clionda Hopkirk and she has been seen or heard from since! I am really starting to worry about her. She's never been gone this long before. I wonder if she is ok...I wonder if she'll make it to her destination safely.

I'm going to wait a few more days and then send out a tracking owl. I just hope nothing serious has happened. Owls are so expensive to replace and the new semester is starting in just a few days!

New Semester Starting Soon

Wow, I can't believe the new semester is about ready to begin! Last semester really took a toll on me. I stayed busy the entire semester, but don't feel that I made any really true friends which is kind of disappointing. I still haven't received my OWL and that's a huge disappointment. The Headmistress is checking for me and I'm hoping that the OWL is spotted in the next few days.

I told myself that I was going to drop out of Hogwart's, but I think I've had a change of heart. I've been more active on the boards in the past week and have come to the conclusion that I'm going to make my own fun this semester. I'm not going to wait for it to come to me. If my house is quiet, I'm going to party with the other houses (if they'll have me - which I'm sure they will).

I see Educational Decree #1 has been posted and that has also made me reconsider. Hogwart's IS so much fun.

Returning students can sign up for classes next week Tuesday. I wonder which house I'll be sorted to this semester? I absolutely love the Slytherin colors, but Ravenclaw seems to be calling my name...
