We got home from Diagon Alley to pack for Hogwarts as we were leaving the next day. I got out my books and noticed a very very old Diary with nothing written in it. Odd.

I opened it and wrote
My name is 'Ginny' Weaasley.
Nice to meet you Ginny I am Tom Marvolo Riddle.
I started to write to Tom until it was dinner and then I wrote some more to him. I told him all about my families my non existing friends all about my brother how they always tease me and how I like Harry Potter, Tom was not familiar with either of his Story so I told him.

Finally it was time to go to Hogwarts...
We got into our car which is a blue ford Angela, and drove of. We had to stop twice because the twins had forgotten broomstick or fireworks. We were about to get onto the main road when I remembered that I had forgotten Tom Riddles diary, soooo we had to turn back. Upss.
We were running late.
When we finally got there we, (Me and mum) ran into the Platform with one minute to spare.
After I got on the Platform and waved good-bye to Mum I found a free compartment and started writing to Tom .
I sat in a compartment with Luna Lovegood and a boy named Colin Creevey.
We got to Hogwarts and I heard a man shout "Firs years, Firs years, over ear"
We got onto some boats I was lucky to share with my newly found friends.
When we finally got to Hogwarts, after admiring its beauty, a steern looing Professor greeted us at the door.
"While you are at Hogwarts youre House will be like youre Home, your successes will earn you points, while any rule breaking however and you will lose them.At the end of the zear the house with the most points will be awarded the house cup. Oh and I am Proffesor McGonagle" she said.
Loads of people started talking to the person next door to them. I only hope we dont have to battle a mounntain Troll like the twins said.
Finallz after what seamed like eternety Professor McGonagle said
" We are ready for you now"
When we entered the grand hall, we saw hundres of Candles levitating close to the cieling, wich looked like the sky outside.
"Wow its amaizing" I heard someone behind me whisper.
I scaned the Gryffindor table for my brothers. Fred and George winked at me and Percy gave me a nod, but Ron was not there and as a matter of fact nor was Harry. I spotted Hermione and she was wearing a worried expression.
Then all of a sudden the hat started to sing,
" Oh you may not think
im pretty
but dont judge by what you see
For I will eat myself if you can find a smarter hat then me,

You can keep your bowlers black
Youre Top Hats sleek and tall
For i'm the Hogwarts Sorting hat
And I can cap them all

There's nothing hidden in your head
The Sorting Hat can't see,
So try me on and I will tell you
Where you ought to be.

You might belong in Gryffindor,
Where dwell the brave at heart,
Their daring, nerve, and chivalry
Set Gryffindors apart;

You might belong in Hufflepuff,
Where they are just and loyal,
Those patient Hufflepuffs are true
And unafraid of toil;

Or yet in wise old Ravenclaw,
if you've a ready mind,
Where those of wit and learning,
Will always find their kind;

Or perhaps in Slytherin
You'll make your real friends,
Those cunning folks use any means
To achieve their ends.

So put me on! Don't be afraid!
And don't get in a flap!
You're in safe hands (though I have none)
For I'm a Thinking Cap!"

The whole room burst into aplause after the hat finished the song.

'Now when I call your name I want you to come up here and try on the hat' said Profesor McGonagle.

After a few names and when there where only three left

'Weasley, Ginerva'

I went to the stool and i sat down. When I sat down a hat was placed on my head and talked to me;

'Oh I see the jungest weasley there is no question to where you go, GRYFFINDOR'

I happily set the hat on the stool and sat next to Colin, who like me was sorted into Gyffindor. When everyone was sorted we chatted as we ate but I was still worried fo Ron and Harry's sake.

After dinner Percy showed us to our dorms and I was pleased that I only had one other persone in the dorm with me, her name, easy Emily Black as in the Mass Murderers daughter.Wow lucky me!!! But still I was exited. I went to sleep hoping that the next day would be amazing.

A/N: Okay I know that Emily's not in the actual story but I wanted Ginny to have a friend.
