Wow. I've heard it's really pretty there! and sketching is an awesome past-time... I could probably get you a sketch pad and some pencils if you like. My sister owls me things I've forgotten at least twice a week!" She then turned to Nessa, "Don't tell me you sketch/play guitar too? that would be wicked! but i bet you have some really cool interesting hobby!"
At first Brayden was a bit overwhelmed by Lia's reaction. However, she wasn't the type of person who really minded when people randomly started screaming or over reacting, so she just grinned back at Lia. "I've been playing for maybe four years now, I move around a lot and I don't own a guitar, so I play when I can. New York City is fun, there's always stuff going on... You would really ask your sister for a sketchpad. I can pay you for it, but only in sickles and knuts, I don't have any muggle money."

"I really do love surfing, it's basically the sport that I mostly play" Nessa said and she fell into a trance thinking about being in the water. "I love to garden, my mom and I started a garden of our own, since I lived in Hawaii I love Hibiscus flowers, planted them and it became a hobby" Nessa added, smiling so big, she didn't realize. "Oh drawings, I have an Uncle that draws and they are amazing, do you think I could see some of your sketches? I can't wait till you find a guitar! I want to hear you play, it must be a lot of fun." 'I really enjoy listening to music' Nessa thought.



Nessa sat there listening to both of her friends talk, 'It's nice to have friends' she thought, as she noticed all the different qualities they have. It was nice, the common room was semi-empty, the fireplace was warm and it was just the three of us. Nessa laughed at the thought of Lia's heritage being the same as hers because she thought there was no other family in the same situation as her family but it was nice for someone to understand the family situation.

Nessa than turned to Lia, "No I don't play guitar or sketch." she finished with a giggle, "But I do have hobbies, I enjoy playing video games, volleyball and horseback riding" Nessa finished with a smile, forgetting she was at a Wizarding school. "What do you enjoy doing Lia?" Nessa wondered.

Brayden yawned and checked her watch. It was 9:30. "Sure I'll run up to the dorm and grab my sketchbook." she exclaimed, hopping up off the couch. She jogged across the commmon room and up the stairs leading to the girls dorm, her long dark red hair streaming behind her. Horseback Riding sounds fun!" she thought.
A minute later Brayden returned with the sketchbook. It was about 10 inches long, 8 inches wide, and 1 inch thick. The cover was dark red, and it nearly matched Brayden's hair. Brayden flipped open the sketchbook and handed it to Nessa. "That's the first place I ever lived." she said, "I lived their the first five years of my life. I ended up leaving because my foster mother ended up getting pregnant, and they couldn't afford to have two children. Since I left there I've lived in five other places, including New York."
