This month's challenge was: A Day In The Life! Write a 500+ word story about a day in the HOL life of you or one of your HOL friends!

We recieved one phenomenal essay from Samantha Wanzo! Thank you Samantha!

- Just Another day at HOL-

The book starts flipping pages by itself, then stops. This book you could not buy at a store, in fact it was a diary. It had once belong to a Gryffindor first year by the name of Samantha Wanzo. The pages were dusty an old, but you could still make out the writing. As you start to read a visual description comes up in your mind.

Dear Diary:
Today I had a fairly decent day....

I wake up rubbing my eyes. "Another day at Hogwarts," I think to myself ten minutes later as I'm walking down the Corridors with my two Best Buddies Clover O' Rielly & Chocolatet Scrumptious.

"So what do you guys want to do today?", I ask them while trying to carry all my books in one hand, "You know we still haven't figured out a plan to get Flea back without getting into a whole lot of trouble."
"We could always just...," Chocolate trailed off intentionally.
Clover turned to me & stopped dead in her tracks, an evil grin on her face which me & Choc. only know too well.
"I've Got it!!!", Her face suddenly lit up, "We don't need to get Flea back...yet! I got something better!"

This was the usual conversation for us in the mornings. See what kind of inventions we can make, plan revenge on Flea, the Prefects & Mr.Mcnish Was just some of our most talked features. Even Though Clover & Choc. were both from Hufflepuff, it didn't mature to me. Finally I reached me class. I waved bye to them as I entered the class. "Your Late!", My Care of Magical Creatures teacher snapped as I took my seat.
"Copy From the board & answer all the questions!" yes, that was my favorite teacher in the whole world...Professor Pascquil. She seems to be in a good mood today.

I was so glad to get out of there when class was up. I met up With Choc. outside Clovers classroom.
"So what did she do this time?", I ask Choc. already knowing the answer.
" The Usual," She replied looking into the empty classroom where Clover was sitting at a desk. "He looks mad! I wonder what the punishment is going to be this time?"
"Well, I already got extra work because I was late for class, urg, good thing I have an interest in Magical animals or else I would scream!"

Down at the great hall...not as great as it may seem. "Why can't they just let us all sit with each other when we eat?", I think to myself as I fill up my plate with delicious foods. "Feels like torture over here..." I trailed off in thought until I hear "So what did you do today?" shocked & suprised as I was, I turned my head to find Samantha Weasley with a big grin on her face.

We finished up our supper & it was time to go up to the Gryffindor Common Room. I am here now Sitting in one of the comfy red cousins. Everyone's asleep now (of course they would be it's 3:30 in the morning). I have learned some new spells in my Charms class. Choc., Clover & me played Exploding Snap down in one of the empty classrooms in the West wing. That was basically my day so far, pretty interesting huh?
Well, I'm thinking about writing my muggle cousin Amy & then going to bed. I've had a big day ~yawn~

Sincerely,
Samantha
