Penelope could not believe that it was the end of the term already. As she walked over to the Ravenclaw table, she reflected on her first year. They would be able to leave Hogwarts without having to tunnel out. No
Hufflepuffs students had died, and if people had died, she would have been okay because she was a Ravenclaw. Everyone knew that if anyone died, the Hufflepuffs would be the first to die.
What had she learned this term? Most of what she could remember was about weather- the astronomy lessons. Astronomy had been one of her favorite classes this term, despite the fact that something bad always happened to her in astronomy class. Maybe she would have better luck next term. Divination, on the other hand, had mainly focused on astrology. Despite the differences between astronomy and astrology, Penelope respected both subjects. Though more interested in the science of astronomy, she found divination interesting in its own way. Potions and History of Magic had not been her best subjects, but next term could be a new start. She wanted to learn as much as she could in her second year.
Making her way over to the Ravenclaw table, she greeted her fellow housemates.
"Hi Maddie, Jasmine, Dora, Nigel, Dima, Kyroh," she said, acknowledging them as she found a seat at the table near all of them.
Her attention now on her housemates, Penelope turned her thoughts to her friends. Did she have friends? She hadn't really talked to many people, and was alone most of the time. Maybe she could find some study partners next year and talk to more of her housemates so she could have friends.
