SPOILER!!: Entry #2 Prompt #14 February 10 2087
I was tutored by my mother when I was young. She didn't just tutor me about wizarding stuffs but also some muggle knowledge like basic math, science, English (I'm a Korean and English is not my first language), and history of Korea. She said that knowing the history of my country is necessary. My mom also invited private music teacher to teach me piano and singing. It turned out that I enjoyed music better than study, after a long consideration my parents allowed me to study at Kirin School of Wizardry and Performing Arts.
Of course Kirin was completely different with Hogwarts. First, the school is still considering new--it was established in 2010. Second, Kirin is not only a wizarding school, it's also a performing arts school. We got out wizarding education class in the morning and then continued with the performing arts class after lunch. I took singing, acting and piano class when I was there. Third, at the end of the term, we usually had a performing art festival to show off our talent. The last time I was there, I was on The Three Musketeers musical drama and I was D'Artagnan. I cannot say that Kirin is better than Hogwarts and vice versa because both of the schools are different.

I can say that a life-changing moment that when I was nine years old. After being tutored in piano since I was five, my tutored signed me up for a piano recital. I was a very shy and didn't really enjoy being in front of people and I had to do a recital? Merlin, I was so nervous and unprepared at the time. My tutor believed that I could do it and my family had been very supportive for let me perform at the recital. I practiced very hard every day with my tutor and she had picked two of my favorite songs to be played at the recital: Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue and Love Me from Yiruma.
Although I had been practice, I still felt nervous until five minutes before my turn. My mom and my tutor couldn't stop encourage me that I could do it. They said not to mind the audience, as long as I played the song from my heart and enjoyed the playing, that's why my tutor picked my favorite songs. Weirdly enough that once I stepped up and saw the piano, my nervous and stage fright feeling were gone. And I did it, playing it from my heart. Once I finished my first song, the audience gave me standing ovation and that makes me more confident. Since then, I'd never felt stage fright again. Also that make me realized how I love music very much, especially piano. I want to be a concert pianist and more focus on that since it's my passion.
SPOILER!!: Entry #15 Prompt 27 May 1 2087.
Back in my third and fourth year, I focused too much in my performing arts class especially that I was picked as a main role in a musical drama. My wizarding lessons' grade weren't that good and my father was very disappointed about that. He said that I abandoned my lessons just for my performance in that musical drama. At the end of my fourth year, he gave me an ultimatum: I should get good grades in OWLs or he's not gonna let me do everything l enjoyed: music, piano, singing and acting. I was very mad at him because he couldn't force me. I believed that I'd done my best at the time but still the grades weren't satisfying enough. After a long discussion and debate, he moved me to Hogwarts so I can focus on study more.
I'd never lived thousand miles away without my parents. For the first time I arrived at London, I'm afraid that I wouldn't fit in since my English wasn't that good. But then my brother, Micky said that I can survive my years in Hogwarts. I was glad that he believed in me and support me very much. As for now, I enjoy being in Hogwarts. Surprisingly I am sorted into Gryffindor and people there were welcomed me very much. I meet some good friends like Leah Abbot, Yoongi Hyland, Adi, Henric, Zhenya, and others. The Professors here are nice too and supportive. Despite of the weird things that lately happened around, I really didn't expect that my first year in Hogwarts was good.
