Hogwarts is MAGNIFICENT!! Ron, Harry, and I had arrived, put on our robes, and were heading towards this BEAUTIFUL CASTLE. Once we arrived, I saw a lady with green robes and a tight expression.

"This way first years," she commanded. We all followed her into the great hall with a bewitched ceiling (yeah, I read Hogwarts: A History) and I heard this girl with bushy blondish hair tell the potter boy, who looked as if he was in a dream. Then the sorting hat was placed upon a rickety stool, and burst out singing. I zoned out for most of the song and sorting till my name was called.

"Aiken, Demelza," said the lady with the green robes and tight expression. I walked up, and sat on the stool. The lady then put the hat on me and I could see Caspian staring at me intensely, as if he was waiting for me to join the Gryffindor table with him (not that I wouldn't mind it).

"Ahh, another Aiken, I remember your brother quite clearly...and oh! You seem no different than he is. Smart enough for Ravenclaw, kind, but not patient enough for Hufflepuff. Cunning and sly, but still not fit for Slytherin. Brave and true like a real Gryffindor...hmmm...then let's make it GRYFFINDOR!!" Exclaimed the hat.

The Gryffindor table clapped and cheered for its new member, but none of them were as excited as Caspian, who went completely bonkers and started yelling, crying, and laughing at the same time. (I would say all dignity forgotten, but he doesn't HAVE that much dignity in posture to be honest) I strolled to the table with a proud smile on my face. The whole Aiken family has been in Gryffindor for centuries! I know my whole family will be very proud once they hear about this.

Once everyone got sorted (including Harry Potter who got into Gryffindor to my displeasure, he is merely a boy who got LUCKY, or unlucky because his parents died I guess) we all stuffed ourselves to the brim with delicious food. The prefects then began rounding us up and leading us to the common room, which was super cozy and put me into a warm trance the second I climbed in through the portrait hole. It turns out I share and dorm room with Hermione Granger (the girl with bushy blondish hair that was telling potter boy about the bewitched ceiling) and Lavender Brown (who was a girl with long curly brown hair and a excited glint in her eyes.) we all chatted about how excited we were to be here and fell asleep to the steady rain outside .

I saw Caspian groggily eating breakfast in the great hall. So, I did what every wonderful little sister would do! Which was scare the HECK outta him. I charged and tackled him to the ground, the whole great hall burst into laughter and I could feel Harry staring at me for some reason.

"WHY DID YOU DO THAT???" yelled Caspian as he dragged himself from the floor and sat back down on the bench, picking up his spoon and shoving another mouthful of cereal in.

"Cuz I'm a great sibling and we got sorted into the same house!" I answered, smiling like mad.

"Miss Aiken," said a voice beside me, I jumped and accidentally crashed into Caspian, causing his head to fall face first into the cereal. Whoops.

"Uh yes professor?" It was good old Mcgonagall, the transfiguration professor, who was handing out our class schedules. She quickly gave me mine, but I could have sworn that she smirked when she turned away.

"MGgFfHHh!!" I turned around and released my grip on Caspian's head. He got up and his face was dripping with milk, and a corn flake was stuck in his nostril. The entire great hall, once again, burst into fits of laughter. Caspian just sighed and walked back into the common room to get changed because his robes were wet from milk too.

After a grueling day of classes, I could not WAIT too finish my homework and go to bed. Since the common room was quite noisy. I decided to go to the library. I sat on a table, pulled out all my books, parchment, ink, and quill and started working on the poison essay that greasy-haired Snape assigned.

"Uh, hi there," squeaked a voice. I looked up and saw Hermione! "Hermione my pal! Wassup," I said, trying to lighten up the mood, since she was always a little shy. Hermione laughed and we ended up finishing homework together, and getting thrown out of the library by Madam Pince together. We laughed and talked all the way to the common room, where Percy scolded us for being a bit past curfew. But we didn't care, by the time we were in bed, we were still talking and laughing. It turns out, Hermione and I have tons in common. We both love books, mint chocolate chip ice cream, and so much more. I have just made my first friend at Hogwarts!
