This is my very first term, and I quickly chose to fill up my class load! I’m taking HOL 101, of course, as well as a visit to diagon alley, herbology, divination, and care for magical creatures! I’ve already completed all of my HOL 101 assignments and am just under halfway done with my DA assignments, I’ve not yet started the other classes just yet. HOL 101 was such a good course to help us new first years familiarize ourselves with the site and all the wonderful things we can participate in! It was incredibly helpful and really enjoyable. There were a lot of little creative breaks in the assignments to help push me to be the student I want to be. Visit to Diagon Alley has been so informative and fun! I love all the little activities like word searches, mazes, and doll makers the professor has put into the assignments. So far I have learned so much, and even picked up some neat things! I got my very first wand, a nine inch Hawthorn wand with a Dragon Heartstring core, and I simply adore it. I feel I’ve already begun the bonding process. I also just earlier today had the opportunity to pick out my outfit for the Yule Ball and it’s just beautiful. I can’t wait for the festivities, or for all the other things I’ll get to see! I’m also very excited for my herbology and care for magical creatures. I am so fascinated by the magic of just simply the world and the earth and the naturally occurring magic all around us, and I really feel these classes will help me to better get in touch with, and ultimately work with, these elements.
