Minerva cafefully crushed the belladonna. Then placed her moonstoen in the cauldron and added the right amount of water. She patiently waited for the water to boil and after rechecking her potion notes she added the nettles and belladonna and waited for it to boil again. After carefully timing five minutes she reduced the heat on her cauldron and simmered her potion for another five minutes. Minerva checked and rechecked her notes, she was feeling very nervous like something was going to go wrong. Her brothers had scared her with stories of how hard potions class was and she was feeling a little overwhelmed on her first day. She then stired her potion clockwise 20 times then counterclockwise 20 more times. She reached into her bag and grabbed her wand and goblet. She wasn't sure if the potion was clear but she poured it into her goblet. Holding her breath slightly she thought of a color,red hair would be nice for a change. She then dipped her wand tip in the potion and said, "Coloro!" (Minerva thought she might have said it a little too loudly). She then carefully measured 200ml, "Well here goes" she said to herself and rinsed her hair with her first potion. She then waited patiently for the longest five minutes in her life.
