Freya made her way up to the Observatory in the Astronomy Tower. She wondered how many constellation she could find tonight. She really loved star gazing and she was more than eager to do this Astronomy assignment. The weather was kinda cool so she pulled her robes around her tighter. Freya looked around to find a perfect spot for her star gazing activity. After she found one, she put down her bag on the ground and made her way yo retrieve her now cleaned telescope. She set up the telescope not so far away from where she laid her bag. Finally after she finished setting up the telescope, she took out some parchment and a quill from her bag.

Let's the stargazing begin!

Sticking her eye to the telescope she surveyed the night sky. First, she pointed her telescope to north and she could easily spotted the Big Dipper (Ursa Major). The blonde haired Slytherin girl gazed the Big Dipper for another few minutes before she took her parchment and quill to make some notes.
