Backstory
My mother is a squib, and so was my grandfather before that. A dispute between my grandfather and his brother led to them keeping distance from each other and me and my mother never finding out about our magical heritage. It was a shock then to me when my Hogwarts letter arrived.After arriving at Hogwarts and having not spoken to anyone but the trolley witch, due to my shy nature (not that I minded though, the ride was literally magical on its own and I had my brand new wizarding books about Hogwarts to keep me company), I got sorted into Slytherin. The hat took its time deciding between Slytherin, Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff, and its final answer was indeed reluctant, but from the moment I got sorted in the green house I identified as a proud Slytherin.
I made my first friend when I sat down amongst my house mates who were cheering for their newest member. The girl had black hair and chocolate skin color, her name was Rachel. On the outside we were nothing alike but we were spiritual twins.
Rachel brought a gray striped cat named nala, whereas I had a brown owl named Levi as company.
The wand that had chosen me was elm, 10 inches with Phoenix feather core.
My favorite class from the very first moment was potions. The thought of the power a potion could have intruiged me a lot and sometime I spent late nights at bed with a book about unusual potions and ingredients.
On the other hand, Rachel's favorite class was care of magical creatures. She always had her way with animals, and although I loved taking care of them also, I always tended to be quite clumsy and accidentally step on their tail.
At first I didn't quite enjoy the idea of quidditch, as I wasn't really one for tea sports but functioned better alone, but flying around on a broomstick was one of my favorite things to do. In time I got I started doing crazy loops and acrobatics, so by the end of second year Rachel coaxed me to go on the tryouts for the Slytherin Quidditch team for third year, and I did. That's how I became a Chaser for the Slytherin Quidditch team and actually started expanding my social circle and got my other best friend.
His name was Aaron and he was the introverted Seeker of Hufflepuff, with which I shared my craving for mysteries and sometimes went exploring with around the school grounds, marking down every secret passage we found, until in sixth year we discovered the Room of Requirement, our greatest find. Later in the year I found that the room could also provide wifi and so introduced my friends to the second greatest thing after magic.
Since then me Rachel and Aaron gather once a week and watch muggle tv shows in the Room of Requirement. Aaron is in charge of the food, since the Hufflepuff dormitories are next to the kitchens and we are in charge of sneaking around without anyone noticing.
I aspire to be a healer, a potioneer or a wand maker but I haven't really chosen yet. I love butterbeer and for a first date I would like to have dinner in the shrieking shack.
