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

I've often been seen as an odd girl. Ever since I was small, I found animals much more enjoyable company than people. I've been told it was quite noticeable when I was young... I remember reading books to my pets and telling them about my day.

Growing up, my muggle parents ran an animal shelter in Canada. But my Pops was a Scot, through and through. So when my Mum passed, Pops and I moved to back to his hometown in Scotland.

After that, Pops and I opened up a dog training school to distract ourselves. Even though I was young, I put in the work. Pop's and I got through our grief with the help of hundreds of dogs. It felt like home, a place filled with animals.

So the day I got her Hogwarts letter, I seriously thought it was a scam. Not only was it talking about magic, but what school would want me? I hadn't been able to keep my grades up since I lost my Mum.

The letter ended up behind my dresser... and was quickly forgotten about.

That didn't stop Hogwart's owls, though. The next day, I found a letter on my morning walk with the dogs. When I looked up, a bright white owl dropped another letter directly into my palm.

That time, I started to question my sanity. Classes about flying, charms and potions? It seemed impossible. 

When I heard about bringing a pet, I was elated. After seeing that graceful snowy owl bring my letter, I knew I wanted one. I stopped by Eeylops Owl Emporium in Diagon Alley and bought myself a beautiful young Tawny owl I named Elenor. She's a little clumsy, but she's already near and dear to my heart.

Hogwarts is so much larger than I could have ever imagined.

The sorting hat took what seemed like ages to sort me into a house. Eventually, it chose Ravenclaw over Hufflepuff. When Ravenclaw erupted in applause, It was quite startling. Hogwarts is so much larger than I could have ever imagined.

I thought it seemed odd at first when I was chosen for Ravenclaw since I wouldn't have labelled myself as brilliant or wise... But even my muggle father seems ecstatic... Maybe I should just trust the hat.
