Backstory
(i remember it like it was yesterday, this owl showed up on my front porch and had a letter in its mouth which is not uncommon since it was a Hawaiian Owl called a Pueo. I closely inspected the letter the Hogwarts crest visibly seen and also the crimson stamp on it, I could not believe my eyes. I always knew that I was different because I could sense things before they happened. I rushed back into the house with the letter "mom look what I got" my mom read it out loud "dear Ms. Black we are pleased to inform you that you have a place at Hogwarts school of witchcraft and wizardry please find a list of necessary books and equipment." "wait mom" I said "term begins on September 1st, but I need to send a letter back right now" so I began writing "Dear Ms. McGongall, thank you for my Hogwarts letter however muggle transportation to London is expensive and very long, so I was wondering if you could help me out." I sent my letter with the owl and within a week I got a reply in the form of "Hagrid" I exclaimed "how are you here." he chuckled "well when McGonagall told me about your situation, I just had to ride out here and see what the fuss was about, now get you things and then we can head to London for a trip to Diagon Ally for yer school supplies." So I packed jeans and stylish black tops and my underwear, makeup, and wore my amethyst crystal necklace with my all-black outfit because it's fabulous. So we take Hagrid's motorcycle to London and went to Diagon Ally, the first we went to Gringotts to get coins to pay for my school supplies. When the goblin asked for my key I was nervous because I didn't have it, but Hagrid actually had my key for safekeeping and he gave it to me. The goblin open the vault and there were only 25 sickles, 84 Knuts, and 1 gallon. Madam Malkin's Robes for All Occasions and got the uniform and yes I did admire the way I looked in the mirror. Next we went to Flourish & Blotts where we got a number of books such as The Standard Book of Spells, Grade 1 by Miranda Goshawk, A History of Magic by Bathilda Bagshot, Magical Theory by Adalbert Waffling. However my favorite book is Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them by newt Scamander, Hagrid was surprised and yet he understood he replied "that was the first book that I read that got me hooked on all of these wonderful magical creatures in the first place." next we went to Ollivanders for a wand, the wand that chose me was a Larch wood wand with a dragon heartstring core. Then we get the size 2 pewter cauldron, One set of glass or crystal vials, brass telescopes, and Brass scales. Lastly to the Magical Menagerie to get a cat and I got the Egyptian Mau cat.
