 Constant Vigilance! O_O AWAKE!
Isabella fidgeted when it was finally her turn. She knew she was supposed to stand still for the magical measuring tape to measure her, but she really didn't know why she needed to be measured. Wasn't magic something that size didn't matter for? It took all her mental energy to hold her arm still as the measuring tape whipped back and forth. She didn't want to get measured wrong. Oh no. What if they got her measurements wrong and her wand got assigned wrong and she was horrible at magic?
Sure, she knew she was lucky that she was getting a wand and getting to go to Hogwarts. Isabella glanced over at her mother sitting in the waiting area. Her mother and father would be so disappointed if she was horrible at magic. Honestly, her brother would be disappointed, too. She was fairly certain he planned to learn magic vicariously through her. It was a lot of pressure for an eleven-year-old. Isabella flinched as the measuring tape wiggled directly in front of her face to measure her head. Uh-oh. What if her head was too small to get a wand?! Julia: Libby has responded to you here!
