Let me tell you, a little something about myself[/color]
Annelise and her brother Jakob were born only two years apart, although somehow on the exact same day: April 21. She was born in 1960, he was born in 1962. Although their mother was not a witch, they always assumed that both Annelise and Jakob would grow up to be magical, considering both of their families were witches and wizards for hundreds of years. When Annelise was six and Jakob was four, the Westerhof family moved to Britain, for their parents wanted the two of them to attend, what they believed, was the best magic institute in the world. They moved to London on a small budget, but all so they could be very close to the magical community. However, as they grew up, Annelise was showing considerable amount of magical ability, whereas Jakob showed very little, if not none. When April 21, 1971 rolled around, Annelise received her letter, much to the praise of her family. She went off to Hogwarts, got Sorted into Hufflepuff (her family was Sorted all over the place, her Aunts into Slytherin, her father in Gryffindor, her uncle into Ravenclaw, her grandparents on her mother’s side in Hufflepuff) and continued to be the nice girl that she was, albeit a tad shy, and only making a few friends. When April 21, 1973 came around, Annelise, along with the rest of the Westerhof family, was extremely excited for Jakob to get his letter. But it never came. Their father went so far to even write to Hogwarts and demand to know where their letter was. Anger ensued when they got told that Jakob was not a wizard. Their father was even somewhat ashamed. Sure, he had married a Squib, but her family were all witches and wizards too. A few dark years came in which he blamed his wife for Jakob not being a wizard. During Annelise’s second year, she tried to persuade anyone who’d listen to allow Jakob to come, and take her place. She always had a great love for her brother, and hated to see how upset he was. Her request was denied, and although Jakob claimed to hold no resentment for his sister, she was never so sure.
Luckily, however, when Annelise started her fifth year of Hogwarts, all had settled in the Westerhof family. Their father finally stopped blaming their mother, and Annelise felt as if she could finally go back to Hogwarts happy, and perhaps make new friends, and have almost a new beginning in Hogwarts.
