Backstory

I am of Indian origin, but my parents shifted to UK when I was 10 years old. My parents are muggles. I was already having problems in adjusting to the Muggle UK life when a man in strange looking attire showed up at our doorstep and told us that I was a witch. It took about 8 weeks to convince my parents, and my mother was still reluctant. I was a hatstall, I wanted Hufflepuff even though I knew it'd be Ravenclaw. My Ravenclaw side was just a bit more than my Hufflepuff side. I have a barn owl, Hoot, who is just a few weeks old. I am interested in knowing more and more about magic, while not losing touch with the muggles world. My dream job was writing, until I found out that I was a witch. I still want to write, but I want it to include magic. Charms is my best subject. I like Potions as well, it is like a magic equivalent of Chemistry. I am interested in knowing more about Squibs, I feel pity for them. I think I will write about muggles things in the wizarding world, for example: muggle-borns' POV of wizarding world, new muggles inventions, tips for better hiding from muggles, stories set in my homeland India. I also want to write about Squibs, etc.
