Hometown: Wellington, New Zealand House:
Overview: Gemma lives in a three bedroom two bath house with her family. She shares a room with her younger sister. Her brothers also share a room. Her parents, of course, get the Master Bedroom. It is kind of cramped at times, but Gemma doesn't mind. She is able to set up her half of the room just as she would like it. They even have a divider in place so that Gemma can get her privacy. Of course, she would rather her own bedroom, but it did make moving into a dorm here at Hogwarts easier. Floor Plans:
Overview: Gemma's bedroom is on the second floor of the house. Although, there is an extra room in the house, the Delaney's use this as a guest bedroom. Gemma has always thought that she should have the right to the extra room since Guests don't live there, but her parents disagreed with her claim to the extra room. Now that Gemma is living at Hogwarts in the dorms, she doesn't mind visiting for breaks and staying in her old bedroom with her younger sister as much. Favourite Places at Home:
Bedroom: Gemma loves her bedroom even if she does have to share it with her younger sister. She had a divider curtain in the middle of the room from the ceiling that gives her own sense of privacy. She keeps her sewing machine on her side of the room and is able to decorate it however she wants. She finds it a good place to unwind and ignore the world or work on clothing designs.
Favourite Places In Hometown:
The Golden Mile: A massive shopping area filled with multiple stores and entertainment. Gemma likes to visit this place to window shop and get ideas for her own designs. It is also a great way to spend the day if she wants to get out of the house.
Te Papa Museum: Gemma enjoys the art exhibits and the social atmosphere of all the crowds. She enjoys wandering around and talking to locals or even visitors. She can often find herself in one of the art exhibits whether it focuses on colours or fashion of the past.
Hogwarts House: Slytherin Clubs: Conglomerated Arts (Joined Second Year), Hogwarts Monthly (Joined Second Year) Favourite Places at Hogwarts: Owlery, Slytherin Common Room Reasoning: Gemma absolutely adores animals. She likes to spend time around them whenever she can. This is kind of like her very infrequent alone time. She loves to watch the owls sleep and interact. She also enjoys the Slytherin Common Room. Not for the decorations of course, but for the social atmosphere it gives. There is almost always someone to talk to. Least Favourite Places: Herbology Greenhouse, Quidditch Pitch Reasoning: Gemma hates the Herbology Greenhouse. She doesn't enjoy the planting and gardening, digging in the dirt. She is happy that it is enclosed, but still would never go there if she didn't have to. The Quidditch Pitch is another area that she dislikes. She isn't a fan of flying. It messes up her hair. The Quidditch games are great to be social but she doesn't like the spot at all. She would avoid it if Quidditch wasn't such a social event here at Hogwarts.
Year One: Photos:
Yearbook Photo Favourite Uniform Adjustments
Overview:
Gemma had a relatively tame year. She got used to her classes, finding the ones that she really disliked and the ones that she enjoyed. She met some of the girls in her dorm, but no close friendships have been formed yet. She still hates wearing a uniform every day, but she has managed to 'spice' it up the best that she can. She spent most of her time either in classes or sketching fashion designs in her sketchbook. She did not create any outfits this year and is still finding herself. She did not join any clubs but is considering it next year in order to find her place here at school.

Favourite Class: Charms Reasoning:This was the most useful class this year. Gemma felt like she had done well managing all the charms. She also liked that she didn't have to get a lot of notes, if any. Least Favourite Class:Potions Reasoning: Not only was this class extremely boring this year, but when they learned about ingredients, a lot of them were gross. Gemma doesn't even think when they move onto brewing that she will enjoy the class, but only time will tell with that. Favourite Professor: Professor Mallory Corrins
Reasoning: The class was her favourite. The professor was to the point and did not make them take notes. He gave them interesting lessons with the charms that were being used. Least Favourite Professor: Professor Gabrielle Moncrieffe Reasoning: The professor gave them a lot of notes and made rather lame jokes throughout the year. Gemma was not a fan mostly due to this. It probably had a lot more to do with the subject dislike than the professor but Gemma associated the two.
Year Two:

Year Book Photo, Halloween Costume, First "Date" Outfit
Overview: Gemma tried to be more social this year. She joined the Hogwarts Monthly. She even wrote her first fashion article, in her mind inspiring the fashion-missing audience. She did well in all her classes, with her hatred of Herbology and Potions growing by the semester.
Gemma spent time working in the design Department for the Fashion Show. She continued to write her fashion articles for the second semester, hoping to make it a reoccurring thing. She enjoyed designing the outfits and trends more than the writing part though. Gemma also met a friend named Teddy. She developed her first crush, even if the feelings weren't mutual, unbeknownst to her. Grades:

Favourite Class: Astronomy Reasoning: Gemma doesn't love the subject matter and the long lectures, but she did like learning about the planets. She developed some outfits inspired by the planets, which gave her the idea of using glitter accessories as her second trend of the year. Least Favourite Class: Herbology Reasoning: Gemma despises getting dirty and doing manual labor. She had to deal with disgusting plants this year, the mandrakes. She would never forget this semester and dread ever seeing a mandrake again. Favourite Professor: Professor Mallory Corrins Reasoning: Gemma finds Professor Corrins to be the most well-dressed professor and actually teaches them practical charms. Gemma doesn't have much more reasoning for liking the professor other than her style and the way she decorates her classroom. Least Favourite Professor: Professor Charles Abberline Reasoning: Gemma found that the professor was simply teaching them about Prank Like Jinxes, which seemed mean and useless. She did not enjoy his classes or his encouragement to use such jinxes in the classroom. He didn't even care that the Leg Locker Jinx made Gemma dirty her outfit when she felt to the floor during the class time.
