Backstory

I'm a muggleborn, so it was quite a shock when I found out that I was a witch. Before attending Hogwarts, I didn't know much about the school, so I bought a book in Diagon Alley called "Hogwarts - A History". It was quite helpful, so I knew pretty much what I was getting into. Anyway, when I got on the train to Hogwarts, I made myself comfortable in an empty compartment, because I didn't want to approach anyone, I wanted them to approach me.
I met a couple of nice students, who are now my friends, some also from other houses. Oh, and I almost forgot to mention that I'm in Slytherin. I know, it is pretty uncommon for muggleborns to be sorted into this house, but the Sorting Hat said that I am resourceful, brave, passionate, stubborn and a true friend, but also distrusting, jealous, secretive and violent and that I would fit perfectly in Slytherin.
So here I am, attending my first year here at Hogwarts and still loving it! :D
