The badger slowly made his way up to the memory book, biting on his bottom lip. It felt so odd, writing in that book. He never thought this day would come. These seven years had passed by in the blink of an eye and he just couldn't believe it was already over. A shaky hand reached out, and his fingers wrapped firmly around the quill. Swallowing hard, he hesitated, holding the pen over the empty page. The seventh year looked over his shoulder behind him, taking a moment to look at the Great Hall, his professors, and the students chatting. He sighed. It had been an amazing seven years, that was for sure. Okay. Now to finally write in this book before he started crying in front of everyone. And he surely didn't want

Merlin's Beard does time fly. I can't even believe I'm already writing in this book... I can't even come up with the words to say to describe these amazing years I got to spend here at Hogwarts. I guess I could start off saying thanks to everyone who helped make these years so unforgettable. Especially my girlfriend, Bleu, who I love so much. Thank you love for always being so sweet and loving to me and having such an impact on my life. I would also love to thank my best friends and brilliant professors. Thank you so much.
Now I suppose I should give some advice to the future firsties, yeah? Hmm. Let's see. Well, one, don't be afraid to be yourself. Be willing to open up and do the unexpected. We are witches and wizards after all, aren't we? Get involved in the school - whether it be with Quidditch or that book club they have going on sometimes. Make some close friendships too. You will meet some of the nicest people here at Hogwarts, there's no doubt about it. Also just cherish every moment you get here...because it really flies by fast.
Well, that's all for now. Thanks again Hogwarts, for everything.
