Mother
had always told me that I was the single rose in a field of daisies, and she
couldn’t possibly have been any more correct. There’s no way a lone rose can
survive when the surrounding daisies were sucking up all of the earth’s
nutrients, which pretty much sums up all six of my years here at Hogwarts.

  I have
never been the top student in my year, much less the school. I’m not a prefect
and STILL get lost in the halls at the academy! In fact, possibly the only
reason that I’ve survived this long is due to the fact that I naturally
gravitated towards outstanding people in my First Year though I myself, am not
outstanding. Now, you might think that I am just degrading myself to the utmost
degree, but that is not true. Given, I do get above average “grades” here so I’m
not dreadful at academics, but not everything has to do with academics. In
fact, allow me to tell you my story because trust me- it’s worth hearing…even
though some of us might not be.
