two weeks fourteen days

I have been in school for a fortnight.
It seems longer than that but not as long as it should.
Do you know what I mean?
Because the weekdays are very fast and then the weekends not as much.
But the older students say that we will have a lot more homework starting this week and that then things will get much harder.
I hope I can keep up.
Draco is on the quidditch team now.
I wonder if I should try out next year?
I like to fly and I was excused from flying class after the first lesson because I already know how.
But the big quidditch matches with two teams flying fast way up high?
I don't know if I would like that.
A lot of other first year girls are buying robe pets now.
Mine is a rabbit and very lively because I take special good care of it.
Sally Anne also showed me how to fold parchment into a rabbit shape which is called ogreami (the folding parchment not the rabbit, the rabbit is called Tex), and then how to charm the parchment rabbit to hop about.
I think its hopping must have bothered one of my dorm mates, because when I came back from dinner tonight the hopping charm had been taken off and the rabbit was just sitting on my bedside table.
So I won't charm it anymore.
Or maybe I will but just when I'm alone.
Because I don't want the hopping to bother anyone.
Well, I think I will read a little before bed.
But before I do, can anyone tell me if Professor Slughorn allows students to talk to him in his office?
He's very kind, so I might want to talk to him sometime, if he allows it.

There are rabbits in America, I think.

True enough.
