Patricia Rogers
Third Year Hufflepuff
Muggle Studies Lesson 3

Patricia awoke that morning with a lot of difficultly. Along with a number of other students she had been struck down by a random bug and unfortunately missed the Valentines Ball, something she had been looking forward too quite a bit. Thankfully she had been well enough to play in her first proper game of Quidditch. Even though Hufflepuff didn’t beat Gryffindor she had enjoyed herself immensely, but the pain of one of the bludgers had remained with her. Sucking up the pain she slowly got ready for class, forgetting about her daily routine of morning jog. She knew that it would be a bad idea and only add to her pain and cold, which hadn’t completely gone away.

She made her way up to the Muggle Studies classroom. She loved this class, it was easy for her, being a Muggleborn had it’s perks and she got to wear her own clothes, she loved the freedom she had in doing so, it made sitting in the class more bearable. Patricia entered the class and took out her notepad and pen, another thing about the class she loved, and waited for Professor Weiss to start the class. Not too long after everyone was seated and Professor Weiss began. Patricia beamed when she heard the words port key and The States. Were they really going to America? Patricia had only been there once and that was in first year when they visited the Smithsonian in History of Magic.

After Professor Weiss explained what they were to be doing and where they were going Patricia’s smile eased off a bit. Sure she was excited but it wouldn’t be too exciting for her, what being a Muggleborn she knew how they lived and what a muggle household looked like. Putting her things back into her bag she made her way over to the Professor’s desk and touched the port key. Once she was bag on solid ground again she looked around, “Nice pad Professor.” she said approvingly to Professor Weiss after she finished talking to the class.

Patricia walked around the house a bit; it was a really nice place. Patricia couldn’t wait until she was old enough; she definitely wanted to get her own place, even if it was only a small flat in Brightstone or Obsidian. She knew her mother would be against it, getting her own place was one thing, but living in a different country was another, but she wouldn’t be finished Hogwarts until she was at least 18, her mother couldn’t say anything to her then. Besides, Northern Ireland was only a quick apparition away, granted she passed her exam. Patricia sat down on the couch and flicked though the channels, enjoying some muggle television, it had been a while since she seen any. After a while a few of the people not used to Muggle appliances wanted to try so Patricia gave it up, a bit down heartened, she had gotten into an episode of one of her favourite muggle programs, Charmed, ironically enough, about witches and magic.

Patricia made her way into the kitchen as it was the last place she saw Professor Weiss. She was considering talking to her about things, nothing in particular but she was interested in the American school system, it was something she could never understand, maybe that would be a good starting point. After searching most of the flat Patricia couldn’t find her until she saw the bedroom door slightly ajar and heard light snoring from inside, it was Professor Weiss. Frowning slightly she closed the door tightly. She felt sorry for Professor Weiss, she must be tired; teaching must be a hard job. Entering the kitchen again Patricia got a class of Fanta and saw the mess some of the students left. Glasses, plates, and other things lying all over the place, some of them probably weren’t brought up in the Muggle world but surely they knew manners.

Not really interested in doing much else for the next hour and a half Patricia decided to help Professor Weiss out by doing the dishes, she did say she had to do it anyway. Once she had washed, dried and put them away she saw a pile of laundry. Feeling a bit weirded out by handling her Professor clothes she put them on for a wash. After the place was much tidier she saw a computer in the corner of the living room. Smiling widely she made her way over to it. Back at home she loved going on the interest and could spend hours on it at a time. For about 30 minutes Patricia was in heaven, checking things such as Facebook, Bebo and her e-mails, things she had missed so much. She even had a conversation with her best friend, Briege Anne, from home whom she missed terribly. It was hard to explain how she got on a computer, but didn’t lie – she simply told her they were on a field trip.

After what seemed like a few seconds she heard Professor Weiss, she didn’t look too good, but Patricia decided not to pry. After saying goodbye to Briege Anne she turned off the computer and made her way over to the port key. In a matter of seconds she was back in the castle, it seemed strangely empty, what with no buzz of electricity it was hard to get used to again. After saying goodbye to Professor Weiss she made her way back to her dorm room and slept, the excitement of the day had made her more tired than she expected, she prayed that the cold would go away and soon!


O (13)
Once again, amazing work from the lovely Pat. If I could give any points higher then 13 I would, but unfortunately I can't. >.>
