"Hey there! My name is Laila Marie Bones. And to tell the truth hardly anything about me is interesting...except that I'm a witch! I think that's really my only interesting quality to be quite honest. I am an orphan, my whole family is gone. Which is weird if you think about it. I really didn't think that orphans could go to Hogwarts. But here I am! And I'm totally stoked. I studied so much before I even go there. Which might be why I was sorted into RAVENCLAW!!

I'm a fifth year student and am proudly fifteen years old. I am still knew at the whole magic thing since I grew up in a muggle orphanage, but I am loving every second of it. I do know that I can be a little over enthusiastic some times, but I try to keep control of my excitement for things. I am sort of just naturally a fun person. I always had to find clever ways to be fun when I was back in the orphanage. A lot of people tell me that I'm clever, anyways.

Lets see...Oh! I can ride a broom like nobody's business, I have a natural love of animals, and a big heart. I give everyone a chance and I always give people more and more chances when they mess up. It's sort of a weakness of mine, but I just can't turn my back on people. It's just too hard. I get amazing grades, and I am amazing with a wand! I have even mastered my patronus, with my favorite memory being of a dream I had (I don't know if that even counts as a memory, though. It fills me with the most happiness ever, though) where I had a family that I loved and I wasn't alone all the time. I had beautiful son and a loving husband and everything was perfect. My patronus happens to be a silver doe, which I don't really care about. I know very little about patronuses as it is.

My bogart is a snake, mostly because we used to have them back at the orphanage. And they weren't the nice kind either. They would bit you really hard and in the weirdest spots like the wrist or something. Like they wanted to hurt you. Anyways, my family was muggle born with a little bit of magic. I know that much. They weren't very much into magic, and that's why I went to a muggle orphanage, of course! I can't say that I agree with them, but I am just enjoying things as they come along now! I must say that I have a love of all magic. Some even say that I am the smartest witch they have ever met. I can't say that I blame them. I am an amazing witch after all. I also am an amazing friend, in my humble op pinion. Even though I am not much for fighting, I do stand up for people eagerly. I would protect people with my own life. I remember doing so for a toddler at the orphanage.

One thing that has always seemed odd to me, though, is how some things I can remember clearly, like saving that toddler, but other things are hard to remember clearly. Like where the orphanage was or what getting my Hogwarts letter was like. I can barely remember much. Mostly I remember developing my powers as a witch, and allowing myself to float. Of course, the other kids would tell me that I shouldn't do that or else I might get in trouble. I don't remember who I would have gotten in trouble with or anything. Isn't that strange? Some times I feel very empty inside because of this. I don't know. Maybe it's just an orphan thing"
