26 September 1981
I've been thinking about Mum a lot lately. Not Kate, but my real mum. Even though I know that she'll never remember me, I still sometimes wish that she could. I used to wish for that almost everyday before Daddy married Kate, but now, every once in awhile, I just think about it. I wonder how things would have been different. If she and my Daddy would have gotten married and then I would have had more siblings, or if Daddy would have had to raise me with her in Angolia? But then, I remember Aaron and Andrew and Kate, and it makes me glad that they're around.
I never want to see my mum again. Kate is my mum now and she's a great mum, but wondering never stops I guess. I wonder if Andrew ever has those thoughts about his dad.
In other news, Galen is so sad this year because of Potions. I'm really trying to cheer him up, but it's hard when there's nothing I can do about Professor Snape! I'm just glad I had decided not to try NEWT level Potions.
Clive FINALLY put up the roster! I knew about two of the positions because he asked me if it was okay for me to train two Seeker reserves instead of just one and I said okay! Mena and Lawrence, this is going to be fun! Hard work, but fun, I promise.
I'm really surprised he could keep it a secret for so long because he was so excited about it in the first place! I mean, I am too because we only replaced Gawain in the line up this year so we're basically the same team from last year! And I know Amy's going to do great as Keeper!
I probably have some studying and revising to do, but I think I'm going to go for a fly instead. I'm too excited about Quidditch this year!
