Dear journal,

Hello! My name is Fletcher Tringham. I'm about to start at Hogwarts as a first-year, and my brother Russel suggested that I buy a journal.

I'm looking forward to starting school! From everything my brother's told me it sounds like it's going to be really fun.

Sincerely,
Fletcher

I hope you enjoy it.

[beansprout]

Thank you very much. I'm sure I will. I can't wait to learn about stuff like potions and Herbology.

[vertulpen]

Are you interested in Herbology?

[beansprout]

Yes, sir. I really like plants. And I have a bunch of Herbology books my brother got for me before I could come to school.

[vertulpen]

Well, I'm the teaching assistant for Herbology. This is Thijs van der Tulpen.

[beansprout]

You are? It's very nice to meet you, Mr. van der Tulpen! Herbology is the class I've been looking forward to the most!

Smart of you.

[beansprout]

Thank you very much.

What kinds of things are we going to learn about?

[vertulpen]

There's a lot of basics in first year.
