<strong>Leah</strong><br/><br/>"Oh no, I'm terrible on a broom," Leah insisted when Lily questioned her further about her flying skills.<br/><br/>She listened to Lily asking Ethan about all those places that she herself had never heard of. She pondered thoughtfully for a moment then came to the conclusion they must be located in Hogsmead, really the only place she knew of that students could visit during the school year. She made a mental note to ask about that later.<br/><br/>Leah laughed at Lily's rant about French food, "You know French food is like the most expensive sort to go out for in America. There aren't any English restaurants that I know of though." She added with a smirk, she really wasn't that into either, she generally ate vegetarian, though she did sometimes eat meat. Eyeing what remained of the feast offerings, she knew she'd probably have to get used to a heavier diet than normal.<br/><br/>Leah nodded when they talked about their classes, then again when she mentioned the potions professor. "Yeah, he's pretty hot. Er... I guess you guys would say 'fit'."<br/><br/>When they switched topics to the magical interference Leah shook her head. "Not really no. My ipod and cell and stuff wouldn't work here or at my school. But in some of the outlying buildings they would. Those are where our mundane classes are held. They're not in the heart of all the magic stuff, so the computers and all work there. Plus you know, it gives the school a more normal appearance to the world. And for most wizard families the amount of magic they do at home isn't enough to really interfere with electronics, they're so mixed into mundanes in New York I don't think they could drown out all the electronics anyway. Haven't you ever seen Times Square?" She smiled a little then said in a lower voice, "Plus without a computer I just can't shop. I buy like all my stuff online these days. Who has time to go to stores anymore?"<br/><br/>Leah grew silent again for a bit, listening to the other conversations, she was curious as to what her living quarters would be like. She knew there was a dormitory, but she didn't know if they had their own private rooms or not. Back in New York, she'd lived close enough that she merely walked to school every day, it being only a few blocks away. Though she did know some girls that lived there and they had shared rooms, two to a room, with a large bathroom and showers for each floor.<br/><br/>"Oh!" she said, suddenly remembering something "You might be interested in this Lily, our quidditch matches, they're held underground. Seriously. We have a big stadium where the old subway tunnels used to run. I don't know how they built it, but they couldn't have people zipping around above New York playing quidditch could they. Plus since we don't have houses we play other schools, so our varsity and junior varsity quidditch teams got to travel a bit during the school year."
