So I guess this is it... by Cooper Abramson (Aladren)

I'm Cooper, and the Headmistress thought it'd be a good idea to put me in Aladren, which is dumb because I don't like learning. But I also don't like people either so I guess this is a better alternative than like, some mushy House with lots of people in it.

Anyway, I'm from Vermont technically, but I've lived all over 'cause apparently not many magical families like taking in foster kids or keeping them for long or something. Now I live in Colorado, and one of my for-now foster parents works here, which is why I have to come here.

I guess I'm glad to meet you all or something, just don't expect me to be nice if you're dumb.

Pleased to me you! by Samantha Hamilton (Aladren)

Hi, I'm Samantha, and I'll be in Aladren, too!

Just by the way, Cooper, it's dumb to say you don't like learning. You might not like studying, but learning is unavoidable, and necessary, and usually fun. Like learning how to climb tress, or that you love vanilla ice-cream.

I'm a Muggleborn, and this magic stuff is new to me, so I'm looking forward to learning all about it.

Great to get acquainted with you, Sophia. I’m Neal, and I’ll also be a first year in Pecari. And talk about excitement – I can barely focus on anything besides the upcoming semester!

I can’t wait for it to get started and to meet and do all sorts of interesting things at the academy.

Great to meet you too, Jessica!

I'm glad to see everyone's as eager for this as I am. And yes, I've got the same feeling that this will definately be way better than Muggle school. Then again, I also think being tied to a rampaging troll would be better than Muggle school, too... oh well, I'm still excited for this year!

Older Transfer Students? by Dmitry Talsky

Hello. I am Dmitry Talksy I’m a fourth year transfer student. My father and step-mother thought it would be a good idea to pull me out of Durmstrang and place me here. My annoying little half brother Dorian is in another house (thankfully). I’m not going to like this place so don’t try to be my friend and get me involved with a school like this. Thank you for your time.

So Obvious, It's Genius by Marian Parker

I think I'll be doing just that - after getting to permission from you once we meet at school, of course. I'd offer myself up for a nickname since I don't mind too much either, but I think that'd make things even more complicated. And I've always been partial to Raven/Ray anyways so it's fine by me :D Thank you!

So walls are Big Brother? by Sam Bauer

And if they can't help you, Nadi, you can still look on the bright side - at least the rooms here are big and the walls are far apart. Nothing like home, I'm telling you.

I'm Sam. Sam Bauer. No relation to Jack, but allegedly some relation to Rachel *points to second year Faux-ladren*. I'm a Crotalus, too, but since 'Sam' is short for 'Samuel,' I'm going to be rooming with other people. Good to meet you all anyway!

Of course I'll be trying out for Quidditch! Blimey, that's like asking me if I'm going to be breathing this week - which I hope the answer to that is yes.

Oh, as for introductions - 'Ello, people, I'm Tristan - Trist works all fine and dandy for those of you who like nicknames. I also got Pecari. And if you didn't notice yet, I'm a Quidditch-head. But I think about things that aren't Quidditch related... sometimes... anyways, here's to a good semester!

I have to say it... by Quentin Melcher

Just because something is unavoidable, doesn't mean one necessarily enjoys it. Things like death,taxes, and household chores are unavoidable and necessary for most people but hardly anyone likes them.

Anyway, welcome to Aladren. I'm a fourth year but my cousin Kirstenna is a Teppenpaw in your class. Actually, I have two cousins in your class, Autumn is my cousin too, third cousin, I believe.
