Estella,

I don't believe I have too many preconceived notions of people at school. There are certainly those whom I like more than others, but I wouldn't particularly say I have any strong opinions about one person over another, save for one. Do you have preconceived notions?

I think many of us are anticipating the end of our time at Hogwarts. I am also eager to head out into the wider world. I just hope Hogwarts has prepared us adequately. I shall miss school, but it does, at times, feel rather stifling being isolated from the greater wizard society for the majority of the year.

My courses have also been going well. I do well at Charms and Transfiguration in particular. I hope my aptitude will allow me to secure a respectable position at the ministry. What is it do you plan to do once you exit Hogwarts?

The Great Hall does serve many wonderful breakfasts. I quite prefer the porridge, myself.

What an odd question. No, I am not an orphan. Are you?


Sincerely,
Pip
