(no subject)
One more week. Then we can all relax for a while, and enjoy the holidays. Provided the professors don't all bog us down with loads of homework. (Yes, that is a hint, Prof. McGonagall.)

Hey, I was wondering if we could talk sometime this week. I have a bunch of sweets still from the last Hogsmeade weekend, and I might even have a few butterbeers, if you'd like to come up to my dorm room and hang out for a bit. I'll even kick any of the other boys out, if you want. I just--really want to talk to you before the hols begin. You've seemed pretty quiet lately.

I can't believe it's nearly Christmas. I wish I had the courage to ask Anthony to stay with me, like Kevin and Stephen are doing--but what if he says no? Plus he's jewish, he doesn't even celebrate Christmas. He'd probably feel uncomfortable with me and my uncles. God, but I'm going to miss him, though! And I have no idea what to get him for Chri Chanukah. For that matter, I'd best make a list for myself of everyone I need to shop for, once I get home. And I really hope Uncle Mark finally gets me an owl, this year.
Anthony - ???
Terry - CDs, probably
Kevin - a book? Maybe some Heinlein, see if he likes it.
Marietta - ...bugger, what do you get a girl if you're just friends? I wonder if I can afford a blouse for her. I've never priced them, but they can't cost much more than a boy's shirt, right?
Mandy - that engraved quill set I've seen a few times, that always reminds me of her. (I hope she doesn't get mad at me for getting her a gift...)
Stephen - Don't really know if I ought to get him something, but I feel obligated. I'll ask Kevin for some ideas on what to buy.
Draco - I have no idea what to get him, but whatever it is, I don't think I'll let Terry know about it. Maybe I'll just get him some sweets, or something.
Pansy - Should I buy her a gift? I don't really know her that well, but she's been nice to me, and I'd like to get to know her better, I think. Maybe I can find a nice jewelry box that's not too expensive.
Uncle Mark - a nice fountain pen. I was noticing that his is looking rather worn, even last summer.
Uncle Kevin - a few of those cigars that he likes, even though Uncle Mark will be angry at us both.
I don't think I've missed anyone. I guess I can always come back and add them later, if I have. Why do I always miss mum and da so much at this time of year, more than any other?
I'm glad Kevin and I finally talked, and are friends again. I just hope he figures out what to do. He deserves to be happy.
