Wow, I really enjoyed reading this! The dining hall really does look just like the one in the Harry Potter stories that I love. I did not realize that there was actually a real Hogwarts Express or was that part just added for humor? I cannot believe you can remember all this! I cannot remember my first day, week, or month at college. I certainly cannot remember what I had for dinner that night. Instead, I remember things like the first class I took or the first test I ever took, etc. I started college in 1972 though. I guess this was graduate school and much later though. This was about the year I got out of the Army. Perhaps, I have a little better memory of that year. Very good reading!

That Is amazing. I love the Harry Potter Vibe.

When Harry Potter came out - I used to tell people that my Boarding School was basically EXACTLY like Hogwarts... but with NO MAGIC AT ALL and LOTS OF VICIOUS BEATINGS.
