Hello diary room. It's nice to meet you. I'm Susan and I'm the eventual winner of Big Brother: Hogwarts.
I'm so excited for this game to get going. I was really hoping to be accepted and was relieved when I got the email that I was chosen to participate. Now I know I have to make this game awesome because I want to make it really great to view and for the other people to be a part of.
This is just something I've observed in the one day that the social beginning of the game has started. There is an overall feeling of it not being a game. I've talked to 5 people already, and it seems like none of them realize this is a game. You're in freaking BIG BROTHER. It's a game. There is a winner. It's happy happy unicorn funland right now, sure. But later, it's a game where people will go home. I brought up the prospect of the actual game portion and voting people out and Luna sounded repulsed at the idea. It's a game, and I'm here to win.
Thoughts on individuals so far:
Hermione. The first person I talked to. She is a game player, but not a very good one. She made it pretty clear already. The first question she asked me was if I knew anyone else in the game and the second was how long I've been playing ORGs. Obviously testing me out to see if I could be taken advantage of. Once she realized I couldn't be her pawn she sort of warmed up and we had a decent conversation going. Something about her is offputting though. I can't put my finger on it, but meh. I can't be her pawn, but I can see us working together in the future or sometime soon. I also have a feeling she will be caught game playing heavily and will implode.
Weiner. Ernie. He is so unbelievably B.O.R.I.N.G. I also made this pretty clear to the other people I talked to. They didn't seem to think he was that great either. He will go pre-jury, I'm sure of it. I think he means well, but he can't even hold a conversation. Unless something drastic changes he will be #1 on my hitlist.
Luna. I had a really long chat with Luna today. She was extremely nice and didn't have a bad thing to say about anyone. It was sort of strange. She's good to talk to, but every once in a while I need to vent or gossip, and I don't think I can do that with Luna. There are two possible explanations for her:
1. She is sincerely an extremely nice person who can help me get where I want.
2. She is an extremely fake person who I will have to be very wary of and be wary of working with.
3. She is an extremely fake person whom I can break and have her true self come out, so I can then work with her.
I'm thinking she really is like that, but I'm going to have to ask around to see if she's goody goody best friends with everyone.
Crabbe. Poor Crabbe, lol. He got Crabbe as his representative. He's pretty cool though. Potentially not so trustworthy. I can see him being all-around well liked by everyone and that could be bad for me. Most likely I will work with him and we could make a great team, but I need him to be a bigger target than I am. I'm not trusting him 100%.
Hannah. Hannah is so weird. I can't put my finger on it, but something is not right. Crabbe and I have already decided that she is a communist spy. That's for certain. But...it just seemed like she wasn't even in the game at all. It seemed like she was HOSTING the game, or that she was a spy for the hosts. Crabbe told me that she knew Kennedy personally and I knew it wasn't a big deal, but it's just so awkward talking to her. Not exactly sure how it will turn out with her.

Things to do:
- Be everyone's best friend.
- Be extremely fake.
- Ask everyone how they found out about the game in order to decide if they are more game players or role players.
- Throw the first HoH.
