I started day with fast breakfast and I left my home early. I noticed a letter lying on the doormat. I couldn’t believe it. The envelope with the stamp of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry was addressed to me. I totally forgot about school and came back to home. My parents were at work, so I was forced to open the letter alone. It said that the new semester in the school was going to begin in two days. In the evening my mother and father returned home. Turned out that they knew about everything for month and they were very proud of me. I thought I was dreaming. I have heard many family stories about the boy with lightning-shaped scar on his forehead, but I did not think it was true.

The next day I found myself on the Diagon Alley. I bought there my first wand, cape and trunk. It was really amazing looking on all those people, who are witches and wizards. They after that, I said goodbye to my friends. I couldn’t wait to start the adventure of my life…
