I was going to keep looking at schoolwork until I understood everything. But I still don't, and I can't look at it anymore. I just can't. I wonder if everyone's right about But if I pay extra attention tomorrow, I'm sure it'll be all right!

I'm so glad Quidditch isn't being cancelled. It was so exciting to watch last time. I don't mean when it looked like Ma Harry Harry Marvolo's broom had gone mad, because that was awful. But before that, they flew around so fast, and I thought it was all so splendid. It was just like everything here. Much bigger than anything I'd ever seen before, and much grander. And much faster.

I think the best thing about Hogwarts is that there's so much room outdoors, and one can go walking around all over (except the forbidden places, but I don't want to go there anyway). I also like all the balconies and staircases inside. I can climb up almost forever, and then if I find a place to look down, I can watch everyone rushing about. Here and there. Up and down. And I'm part of it! There's a brilliant place to sit at the top of the main staircase. I just hope I don't ever mess up being part of it.

P. S.
Does anyone else think the food at lunch today tasted a bit off?

I feel odd.

I like flying. Even with the school brooms. But they're not very good, someone said. I don't know, because I don't think my guardian would ever let me have a broom. I wouldn't even ask, I'm sure she'd say girls shouldn't want brooms.

Have you ever flown with a really good broom?

Okay, let's.

With my dad I have. Since he works for the Chudley Cannons he gets to see some marvellous brooms!

He gives all of us kids rides every so often, because he says he wants us to respect the power of our brooms but not be afraid of them.
