Classes

History of magic is our next class with Hufflepuff this afternoon. Not much excitement to me. The professor is a ghost. Professor Cuthbert Binns.

This was a boring class only some paid attention. Why would you allow a ghost to teach a class? Hmm, I wonder if I can exorcist him. I do wonder what will happen then.

The three-hour boring class came to an end. Nothing much have I learned from that ghost. It made me remember one thing. The ghost of the raven claw. I wonder if she will pass on the afterlife when she sees the diadem.

The first day of the class ended with not as much as I expected. The way the Teachers teach is that they will explain some and let the student discover from themselves. What a bullshit process. Tomorrow will be another day, let's see if something will be different.

Another day has come, later will be the Defense against the dark arts class. I wonder what kind of teacher he will be. But before that, it will be Herbology.

Walking towards the great hall I encounter a group of students talking in the corridor. I notice it was the Weasley twins, trying to sell something to a student. I came closer to inspect what is their business.

"Hello there young fellow, may I interest you in some joke products?" Said the first

"We have dung bomb, fake wands, whiz bangs, laxative cupcakes, and some firecrackers. Want to try some." Said the other

"Is that all you got?" I asked

"Well we are trying to make more kinds but it's still a work in progress. I'm George by the way."

"Do you have something in mind that you need? Fred is the name."

"Well, Fred and George. I do have something in mind. Can we speak a little in private?" I looked at the other student who seems not going to buy at all.

"Sure thing let's go here." They said in unison

We went to a corridor where there is no people around.

"So what is your business with us."

"Well, I would like to hire you two to be my employees."

"And what kind of employment do you want to offer for us?"

"Nothing much, just I want you to research and make joke products. I will finance all the galleons and material you need will split it 40 30 30. Fourth for me thirty on you both. Also, the products you will make will be sold on a store in the Diagon alley."

"Well, that sounds promising. But what is the catch, you are too young to have a store in Diagon alley."

"Oh, let me introduce myself. I am Meshac Ophias. I do own a building in Diagon alley that I have just inherited from my ancestors I can even show you the title. Now about my age. About next week we will be of the same age. So we are equal on that part. Regarding finances, do not worry about that. This is just a trial so it's up to you if you will make it a booming business. Anything you need just make a list and send it to me, I will provide it. So what do you think?"

"Hmm, how about give us some time and we will think about it."

"Ok just search for me if you come to a decision, I will be in Ravenclaw. By the way here are twenty galleons. Use it for your experiments. That is a treat from me don't bother rejecting it. I do believe you two have the potential to be successful businessmen."

I throw a small bag of galleons towards them and they catch it with four hands like they were afraid it will touch the ground. I walk away leaving the both of them with a shocked reaction on their face. I do hear exciting voices from them when I had to walk a little further from them.

Having breakfast at the Ravenclaw table some students approached me and ask if when am I going to make my card duelling game. I told them soon.

Gathering with my classmate after breakfast to go where the greenhouse is located on the outskirts of the castle.

Professor Sprout will be teaching this time. A large woman having a hard time walking straight because of her weight.

The class was conducted in a classroom inside the greenhouse. We just open our books and the professor just explained the kinds of plants that were in our book. The time went by like that till the end. No planting was done.

In the afternoon DADA with Slytherin is on our schedule. The new teacher, professor Dantley Morning, will be our instructor. A very straightforward kind of person. A little nervous but nothing much.

Going inside the classroom with my fellow Ravenclaw we stumble upon a group of Slytherins gathered in the corner of the room. Looks like bullying, but they stop when we arrived giving threats to the student that they were ganging up.

Well, that was their fellow Slytherin so I did not bother. Even in Ravenclaw tower, I did see older students bullying younger ones or even older than them. Blackmail is also a thing in this school. What a joke, the staff allowed it to train the student for real life. Bull crap.

The class went on with just the introduction to dark creatures. No spell no counter spell just reading and explaining. So another boring class. I think I am regretting going to this school.

So another boring day. Tomorrow I will have the day free but we have a class in astronomy in the evening with professor Aurora Sinistra. Well, that is for tomorrow.

"Hi Meshac, would you like to join us watching the Ravenclaw quidditch team drafting game?"

I heard a voice behind me while I was sitting on the Ravenclaw table while I was eating my breakfast. I turn my head to see who it is and the trio caught my eyes. It was Cho.

"Sure there is nothing to do today."

Cho was a quidditch enthusiast, so as Laura, Marietta on the other hand is not she just stay close to the two. I also agreed to see the game, for I have never seen one before.

A few minutes later, we go in the quidditch stadium seats and watch the game for the new drafting of players. I noticed that this was a little bit entertaining. It was like polo but in brooms and not a horse, like Football but different at the same time.

Very physical game but also tactical. No wonder many are enthusiasts. Maybe I will try it also. In my previous life, I'm not an enthusiast but I do like sports especially when it's the finals of a specific game of basketball, Football, Olympics, boxing, MMA etc.

I was beside Marietta we are both sitting, while the two besides her are standing, jumping sometimes clapping, and shouting something.

"Your not a fan huh?" I ask Marietta.

"I am just not that enthusiastic about everything." She said back.

Whew quite feisty. I'm having thoughts that, Marietta is going to be a very good Auror if she joins it. Back to the game, both seekers are trash. No wonder in her second year Cho was the seeker.

I was thinking if I was to play what position will I'll play. Seeker seems to be the best that will suit me, but I want more action so being the beater would be the best for me. All the action is on the beater he can go anywhere even disturb the seeker if specific legal moves are done by hitting the bludger in an angle where the opposing at going or at the place.

Thinking about it being a great beater does not make you a very famous celebrity but just be well known. Perfect.

I think I certainly know being a well lay low person you just don't do anything. That will gather more attention when you are an active person. 'A nobody suddenly is doing this? a nobody is going there? why?' That is gathering more attention rather than when people saw you and know you 'oh yeah that is the Ravenclaw beater' and move on with their life.

That is why I portray the very curious type of character in this school. They will just think that I'm the curious talented boy type, nothing more.

I have decided next year I will be joining the tryouts for the beater position.

The afternoon came and a letter was delivered by an owl in the table.
