jake, lysander and i were being re-sorted for reasons the ministry only know. so, now the rackety old sorting hat was placed on a wooden stool in front of the Great Hall.time for its song! i forgot the one from ast year... then again, i wasnt listening, was i?

"i might not be the typical hat

but at least i know where to sit you at

perhps you will be a slytherin,

ambitius, cunning, and sly! 

or if your quite wise, smart and a bit shy,

perhaps Ravenclaw best suits you!

Hufflepuff for the loyal and chaps who are trust worthy to you,

and for those who are brave, corgaous, as well as loyal,

Gryffindor awaits you, where some believe your royal!

so come along, put me on,

so i can make another song!

 i have survived rain and dust,

war all through dusk!

i might be acient,

but if your patient,

you will enjoy your sorting!"

evrybody clapped, that was actually pretty good! jake was first to try on the hat. after about a minute, it shouted, "GRYFFINDOR!" i was next. i was as nervous as before. i went up, trembling and shaking, and put the hat onso youcouldnt see my emrald orbs. i was also worried because Aunt Hermione and dad and Uncle Ron are staying for the week. so, that means theyll see my sorting.

"my, my." it whispered into my ear. "youve changed, havent you? coragous, cunning sly... but not Slytherin material. loyal, but not Hufflepuff. brave... corageous, but theres asark in you that says Gryffindor... ahh. wise, smart... loyal... a bit shy.. witty.. those traits out shine the others. but you want to be with your family, dont you?" 'it would be nice.' i thought to him.

'but i want to be diffrent. my dad says you take my choice into account?' "i do, your father, and grandfather would of done well there.. so would your brother." 'really? james?' "No, Albus. have you made your decision?" 'yes... but its not Slytherin.' "i know dear, i know. are you ready?" 'ready as ill ever be.' "very well then."

the brim of the hat opened, and i got ready. i knew what house i would be in. it clearly shouted, "better be.... RAVENCLAW!" agin, no appluase. how could Harry Pottes very own, and only daughter be a Ravenclaw? i said, "Well, the sorting hat takes your choice into account. and i wanted to be diffrent. Ravenclaw- suits me. as the sorting hat has said, not only to me, but to you. if you understand him, your probably a Ravenclaw. we were on the same exact page."

my very own house began cheering, and hollering, "WE GOT POTTER, WE GOT POTTER!" i sat next to a girl with blonde hair, and one with black. "Hi, im Lily." "im Veronica", said the blonde girl. the black haired girl said, "Rue."

Veronica was tall, a bit lanky, had icey blue eyes, blonde hair all the way to her chin, in a bob. she was very fair, like me. Rue, on the other hand, had black hair down to her chest, chocolate brown eyes, and dark skin. "second years?" "yupp. you?" "yes, i am. hey, well share a dorm, right?" "yea, we will!"

a guy with curly muddy brown hair said to me, "Zayne Walsh. sixth year prefect, aand also Qudditch captain. are you trying out?" "yes, i am." "well, just show up for try outs tommorrow at nine in the morning, okay?" i nodded my head curtley.

we all ate, and veronica, rue and i got to know each other. we went to bed that night, and i was very excited for tommorow.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

i headed down to the feild, Veronica and Rue watching in the stands. i stood in the seeker line. only one other person- Abbey Chang. "alrighty, seekers up now, and just fly in the sky, and well see who catches the snitch the most out of five times."

in the end, i became the new Ravenclaw seeker. we were ordered to keep the new team a secret, and i got really excited once i found out who the referee of the matches would be. it was the holly Head Harpies very own, Ginny Potter! yes! noneofmy family knowsyet. only Ravenclaw does.

the first match is Gryffindor vs. Ravenclaw, in November. November first actually. im prepared to kick jays butt.
