Welcome to a new year at Hogwarts! Before we begin our banquet, I would like to say a few words. And here they are: Nitwit! Blubber! Oddment! Tweak!

I think that I've had a very strange life.

You know how I think they choose people for Gryffindor team?" said Malfoy loudly a few minutes later, as Snape awarded Hufflepuff another penalty for now reason at all.

I've been writing my entire life, and I'll always write. But at times I have told myself that I don't necessarily have to publish anything else.

All we do is read the stupid textbook," said Ron.
