Professor Weiss was sitting on her desk in the front of the room when the students came in. She was holding a glass bottle in her hands, spinning it carefully around. She was wearing an unusually casual outfit for the day – a pair of jeans, a sweater, and tennis shoes. When everyone was assembled, she jumped from the desk and began to speak. “Welcome back. Today is going to be a bit different. We are going to be discussing muggle home life, but not here. I want you to see things first hand.” She set the bottle down on the desk in front. “This is a port key. I still have an apartment back in the States and we are going to go there. You will be able to stay for a few hours and play with all the appliances, check out television and radio, and just get a feel for what it is like to live as a muggle for a bit.” She looked around at their faces, hoping they would be excited to have some fun. “Alright, if everyone would gather around, our portkey awaits!” As everyone stepped forward and touched a part of the bottle, it began to glow blue and soon they were standing in the middle of Professor Weiss’s living room. ![]() Professor Weiss took the bottle and set it on top of the small table and then set a timer. “We have two hours here. I want you to feel free to wander through the apartment. There is a bedroom, bathroom and kitchen. I will be doing some typical muggle chores while we are here. I need to wash some clothes to bring back, and things like that. I will let you play with anything in the apartment. If you are not sure what it does, please ask. The television may be turned on, the stereo is available. If you want to cook or do dishes or just sit outside on the balcony, you are welcome to do so. Enjoy playing in the muggle world!” She then turned to walk to the kitchen and grabbed a glass from the cupboard and got a drink. “Oh, and feel free to help yourself to anything to eat or drink.” Just after taking a drink, her stomach felt like it was going to revolt. She ran quickly down the hall to her bathroom, and proceeded to throw up. After cleaning up, she headed to her bed and laid down to rest while the students wandered around the apartment. What felt like only a short time later, Professor Weiss gathered the students together again. They took the portkey back, landing in the classroom once again. “That is it for today. Have a great rest of your day!” She made her way to her desk, placed her head down and proceeded to fall asleep. Homework: Pretty simple. Just rp your character exploring the apartment and playing with at least one item that is unusual to your character. If your character is used to muggle living, please try to discuss differences in what you are used to compared to the apartment. Please be creative.

Ella excitedly walked into the muggle studies classroom, she had a lot of fun during week two and impatiently awaited the activities of week three. She took her usual seat, but was quite surprised to see Professor Weiss so dressed down and sitting on top of her desk. Ella closed her eyes and opened them up again, only to continue to see the professor sitting on top of the desk. Well, at least I know I'm awake.... Ella thought to herself and began to pull out her books as the rest of the class shuffled in. As it turned out, they were going on a field trip! Ella had never been to California, so a day trip to San Francisco was definitely very cool. Ella held on to the bottle with extreme force as she was swooshed into the living room of Professor Weiss's apartment. It took Ella a few minutes to get over the shock of the portkey trip, but she was fine once she was back on her feet. Wow, this place is really cool! And we're free to roam around and do as we please... Ella wasn't feeling very hungry or thirsty, but she was interested in playing with the stereo. "I wonder what kind of music Professor Weiss is into?" Ella asked aloud, although to nobody in particular. She didn't have very many friends in her year, actually, she didn't have very many friends at the school at all. Picking out the first CD she could get her hands on, Ella stared at the cover. It looked very old, maybe twenty to thirty years old and was titled 'Backstreet's Back'. Ella popped the CD into the stereo and bobbed her head as she listened to the first song. "Hey, this is not bad, I'll have to talk to my roommates about it later.." When the second song came on, Ella could not help but get up and dance to the music, and robot moves were absolutely necessary. After she had listened to the entire CD, it was time to go. Ella headed back with the rest of the class, excited for what next week would offer. O (10) Well done Miss Greene, your certainly shining in the subject.
