| Esme Darcy and Rocky ♥s her SS family l Wifey is MINE | Naughty Niffler l Whittysaur l #awkwardturtle<# Username: Squishy Member number: 76092 House: Hufflepuff Character name: Esme Darcy Year: Fourth Meteorite's name: Rocky A Look Into the Life of a Pet Space Rock Entry 1:
Before properly getting started on the assignment, Rocky really needed a face; you can't have a pet without a face and personality and he is definitely not an exception. I took him to the Astrophysics Laboratory to use the supplies provided and worked magic through arts and crafts. Using pipe cleaners, googly eyes, and cotton balls I gave him an adorable face and some character. I can't wait to show him around Hogwarts. Astrophysics Laboratoy
---------------------- Entry 2:
Heading to the Hufflepuff dormitory after spending time in the Astrophysics Laboratory, I run into my sister and her pet rock, Firefly. After making introductions, the two rocks hit if off and talk to each other in their rock language (because even rocks can talk to each other, obviously). The best friends enjoy a dance party while me and Juno have a blast as well. The music of choice? ROCK and roll of course! Girls' Dormitory
---------------------- Entry 3:
Feeling hungry, me and Rocky made our way to the Hufflepuff table for a little breakfast date. Even though some of my friends were at the table I devoted all my time to him. It was well worth it too! We ate a yummy meal of bacon and eggs with potatoes, toast, and fruit. Was a lovely bonding experience and I am looking forward to eating more meals with him. After breakfast he slept while I went looking for my sister. Seemed that he got tired out from eating and I can't blame him. Hufflepuff House Table
---------------------- Entry 4
I took Rocky on a tour of one of my favourite (if not favourite) places at Hogwarts, the lake. First I showed him the spot were I found him and then we waded into the water. He heard a little about the mermaids and giant squid that live in the water but I don't know how to get Bartholomew Henry's attention so sadly Rocky didn't get to meet him. After skipping rocks across the water we spent some time sunbathing together and it was really peaceful and relaxing. I think we both needed it. The Great Lake

This entry describes me going and making my pet rock have facial features! I love art so it was a really fun time. I made sure that the rock had some eyes, so that he can see everything that we are going to do around the castle. I also gave the rock a smiley smile because I am always smiling. I finally named her, zoom, as she had to zoom all the way down to get here! I can't wait to have lots of fun experiences with her! Post One
---------------------- Entry 2:
Harriet took her pet rock Zoom down to the Great Hall to have some breakfast. She loves breakfast and knew it would be something important to show her pet rock as Breakfast is the most important meal of the day! Post two
---------------------- Entry 3:
I spent lots of time with Zoom in my dorm. It was fun to spend time there and hang out! I was pretty tired today though, and we just went and slept. I dont think the bedside cabinet was as comfy as my bed though! Post Three
---------------------- Entry 4
Today I took Zoom down to the lake. I love the grounds, they are my favorite part of the castle! I showed Zoom how pretty the lake was and we did a little bit of relaxing! It was really nice! Post Four

Today is the day I officially adopted my rock! The best to place to start was in where he was born, by giving him his own identity and home. He now has facial features to make him unique along with the name Xenolith, because I find him unique since he's not from planet Earth and just sort of erupted into my life! Astrophysics Laboratory
---------------------- Entry 2:
Sky takes Xeno to the entrance hall to show him where she got her start and explain the sorting process! XD Entrance Hall
---------------------- Entry 3:
Just showing Xeno the dormitory and where sleeping shall occur!! And he totally wanted to share the bed and not sleep on the table I offered! Girls Dormitory
---------------------- Entry 4
Final destination was the great hall because after all the walking around we were starving !!! Xeno is just a baby but goodness, can this space rock EAT like there's no tomorrow. Okay so maybe it was more me who was hungry, but Xeno nibbled a little too! The Great Hall

I gave Rockefeller a makeover! I made sure to give him facial features so that he didn't look like he was just another lonely pet rock. Now he has eyes to see and explore the world with me! I also had loads of fun and, well, I guess my artsy side was tickled a bit too. Oh, and I gave him the name 'Rockefeller'! #NoPunIntended. Pet rocks rock! Astrophysics Laboratory
---------------------- Entry 2:
Today, I took Rockefeller out for a jog and some exercise. In order to remain as a healthy pet rock, I also told him that being fit is important too. We jogged for around fifteen minutes around the Grounds (maybe some water breaks a couple of times) and some push-ups as well. Great job, Cadet Rockefeller! The Pathways

I took my then un-named pet rock to be all prettied up. He got a lovely smile and great purple eyes. Purple is my favourite colour so I think it quite suited him. I had fallen in love even more with him after this. Post 1
---------------------- Entry 2:
Today I took Shawn to The Fun Room to show him a bit of muggle technology. There, he was able to interact with Haddie Denaker
and her ferret, Asher as well as watch Haddie play a game of Frogger. The young Ravenclaw christened him Shawn. Post 2
---------------------- Entry 3:
An early breakfast with Shawn happened this morning. I was able to share with him my favourite beverage. Unfortunately, he didn't get to interact much with others since it was rather early and since it was Saturday, may persons slept late. Post 3
---------------------- Entry 4
Shawn and I spent some time on the swings out on the playground. I was able to show him and let him experience a favourite past time of mine. I think he rather enjoyed it. Post 4

Today I took Gom to the Astrophysics lab to make him into a pet with eyes and a face and stuff. I tried to make him look a little different from the other pet rocks, just in case something happened and he disappeared. link

After Gom got a proper face and stuff, I took him outside for some sunshine and to meet Sniffler, my hedgehog. I think Sniffler was confused... and maybe a little jealous. We'll see. link

After some fun in the sun, I introduced Gom to the dorms and gave him his own nice place to sleep. And then he watched me sleep. I have some concerns. link
