Backstory

I come from a pure-blood family. Most people in my family are very proud of their blood purity. I don't really care. My parents have strict rules about who I can date, who I can hang out with, how I was to treat muggle borns, and a lot of other rules that I really don't want to get into. My biggest fear growing up was that I wouldn't get a Hogwarts letter. What if I were a Squib?! My parents would probably disown me. Of course, since my family cares so much about blood-purity, they've all been in Slytherin. I was told that I had to be in Slytherin my entire life. When my Hogwarts letter came on my 11th birthday, I was super excited to be going to Hogwarts with my older sister, who was a 6th year, and my older brother, who was a 3rd year. Surprise surprise, they are both in Slytherin. I had to make it into Slytherin and I knew this. When I got onto the train, I met a few people who would be in my year as well. We arrived at Hogwarts and the sorting ceremony started, I was called to go up to the sorting hat faster than I could say Quidditch. I waited for over five minutes to be sorted and I'm pretty sure people called that a hat-stall. When the sorting hat let out its decision, I couldn't believe what I was hearing. It wasn't Slytherin. It wasn't Gryffindor (thank goodness) and it wasn't Ravenclaw. I was a freaking Hufflepuff. At first, I hated everything about it. My parents weren't too mad, but that was because at least I wasn't in Gryffindor. I love my house now, of course. While I've been here, I've excelled at potions and charms and I hate divination. In my free time, I love to write, read, and sneaking around the castle. I love all of my professors, but Professor Snape doesn't seem to like me that much. I'm sure he'll warm up to me. Well, that's my story! I hope we can be great friends!
