Ordinary Wizarding Level and Nastily Exhausting Wizarding Test.
I'm not a Harry Potter nerd, I just remember stuff.
Also I forgot to mention that every year Griffindor wins the house cup.
EVERY DAMN YEAR!

First Day
My first memory is thinking, "Are you f***ing kidding me?"
See, the teachers treated the freshman like we were ten year olds. We even went on a 'savenger hunt' to learn the layout of the school. They put us in groups (of people I had never met before), gave a list of stuff to find, and expected us to actually enthusiasticly search.
I pretty much found a girl who was an aquaintence, ditched my group, and lounged by the bubblers wishing we had skipped freshman orientation.
The next day was great because I got to check out the upperclassmen, but for the most part I was a little annoyed high school wasn't exactly what I was told it was going to be like. I expected someone more like on TV (just goes to show how dumb I was... haha) and it just didn't happen. Everything was more mellow, less dramatic (although more dramatic in other ways), and less nerve wracking (lockers were a cinch and finding my classes was easy enough).

This year was the first year for me in highschool. The first day was very long. All the teachers hated me, because I talk far to much. For lunch, I got stuck at a table full of seniors who ironicly were all boys. I tripped over an orange in drama, and got a black eye. I missed the bus, and had to call my mom to come get me. She is very embarrassing, but on this particular day she walked out of the car, still wearing her apron which says, "i may cook awful, but my husband says i do other things better." hows that for a first day?
