Diary Entry: July 8th- Just got back from the beach today with the family and I had such an amazing time ! The sun was shining so bright, but that didn't bother me. It did bother mom though- as always. Josh loved the water just as he normally does. Mom-Mom stayed by the waters edge as she normally does. Saw some dolphins, too ! They were really beautiful. After all that, we had lunch and went home.
It's only been a few weeks since school let out. I miss everyone so much. It was the best year I've ever had since making friends at last. I think of them all everyday. Part of me wishes summer could be over and school would resume. My 11th birthday is coming up a few months and I really want to spend a good amount of it with them.

Specific Questions for Halfbloods:
Who in your family knows about the magical world?
Most of his family knows. His father is muggleborn and my mother is half-blood.
What explanation is given to the muggles in your family about your long absences while you are at Hogwarts?
Since most of his family on my mom's side knows he's a wizard, they know he attends Hogwarts. As for everyone on my father's side: They think he's at a school far, far away.
How does your family combine muggle and magical elements, is your house obviously magical or do you keep stuff hidden?
His house is obviously magical, but when anyone on his father's side comes, his parents and grandmother just use spells to mask everything so no one knows.
Has you character always known they were magical or did they worry they were a squib?
He always knew. When he was little his parents and grandmother told him he was magical like them.
Does your character have any strong feelings (good or bad) about magic or is it just part of their life?
At first he was kind of scared becuase he thought he wouldn't be able to control my magic, but he feels great knowing he will be able to keep it at check since he's going to Hogwarts.
Student Skills:
School Ethic: He loves school very much. It's really the only place where he does the most work. He went to a regular school just like everyone else.
Teacher Relation: He would be very respectful of the teachers no matter what and would do exactly as he was told.
Work Ethic and Diligence: He would treat schoolbooks and school property with much respect- making sure that the books were put nicely in a desk drawer when not in use and never mess up or destroy school property for any reason. He would make sure homework was done first and done neatly before doing anything else- even if the homework was something long and boring.
