Shylar breathed in and simply smiled, she loved everything about coming back to Hogwarts, from the train ride to the boom of hagrids voice as they made their way to the castle. Now sitting at the Gryffendor table, taking note of the people that twinged a memory and the newcomers who did not. The sorting was always interesting as the Hat's song was quirky and filled with good cheer. For each and every new person sorted into Gryffendor she cheered and clapped like all the rest, all the while listening to the murmurers and whispers that flitted around the table like an errant snitch. Her eyes were busy, observing anything and everything and coming to rest on the new teachers with as much curiosity as a basketfull of cats.<br/><br/>The potions teacher seemed nice, the ancient runes one was definitely eye catching with her shock of green hair but her eyes were drawn to the Defense against the dark arts. An older man who seemed to ooze confidence by just sitting there. She would want to talk to him, Defense was important to her and one day she wanted to be a teacher, she just hadn't made her mind up about wethere she wanted to teach yet. That thought made her eyes sweep away to the transfiguration professor and the care of magical creatures professor, observing them just as keenly.<br/><br/>She was broken from her musings as the end of Flitwick's speech sounded and confetti dropped from the ceiling. A short bubble of laughter left her lips, like a bell chiming as she ran a hand through her curls and a handfull of the stuff fell from her like water droplets after a shower. Her stomach grumbled, the food would be amazing she knew it and she was starving.<br/><br/>*******<br/><br/>DJ had spent the last few Weeks preparing for her knew classes and now as she sat at the table with all the other professors she felt her excitement overwhelm her. Tucking a few strands of her hair behind her ears she smiled warmly down at the students, waving when her name was called for the introductions. She watched the others and was more then amused by both Professor Hall's acknowledgment (so serious!) and Professor Edgar's at which she promptly rolled her eyes and grinned thinking 'show off'. She turned to the professor next her, Laksha, and murmured, "Isn't it exciting to watch all the students! I can't wait to start the classes"
