Backstory

Ok so apparently when you're a Slytherin you're supposed to be all cool and badass but let's be real: not all of us can achieve that. Sure, I may seem icy, but that's mostly due to the fact when I try to talk I usually end up saying something dumb. Seriously, seven years in the school and I'm still not getting a hang of that cool, effortless vibe. Who knows, maybe they charm their hair perfect and cover their zits with magic, and I haven't noticed. Oh, well. At least no one bothers me in the common room, considering I'm a Half Blood, which is nice. I'm usually found reading my mom's fantasy novels, I mean, its hilarious how Muggles portray us! But the bubble I have around myself definitely gets bigger in Potions: I have a tendency of blowing up my cauldron pretty easily. Defense Against the Dark Arts, though, I ironically excel at. Probably because of my whole blowing up thing again. I can only hope that I can achieve a little bit of "Slytherin Grace" before leaving: its gonna be hard to be a stage actress if I trip over my own two feet.
