It seems like everything is falling apart sometimes. Not always, not even most of the time. But you know the world feels off balance, off axis, off kilter, whatever they call it, when you can see the crack. Not anything stupid, like a painting's cracks or something, but just between people. I don't know. It's hard to figure out. I've been trying, ( Read more... )

I didn't know what to say last time, and it's the same this time. Malfoy was a first class prick, but he didn't deserve to die for it. And anyone losing a parent .... well, there's nothing right to say. I don't know. It's all pretty screwed up. I'm sorry, anyway.

It's sort of funny how fast things go up and down here. Horrible things happen, people die, censorship abounds, and then it's almost like back to normal in a few weeks. A bit mad, but then this place always was. I mean, I can go around being a perfectly reasonable bloke, and then some arse tries to come along and kill me, right? Which should mean a ( Read more... )

I never really noticed how many bloody cats there are around here.

Everything's getting closer and closer, NEWTs and leaving school, and everything else that goes with it. I have absolutely no idea what I'm going to do once I leave school. I mean, there's the ordinary, every day things: get some sort of crap job, find an equally crap flat, probably with Dean, have no curfew, and no Housemates, that sort of thing. ( Read more... )

It's been pretty odd having Harry and Hermione gone from the breakfast table, but we still see them in the common room and at night, so that's not such a big deal. Everyone wonders why Hermione wasn't Sorted into Ravenclaw in the first place, but Harry's hardly very Slytherin, so I've no idea what's up with thatRon, though, mate. You just don't hit ( Read more... )

Mum's been going on about taking me out of school again. I'm wondering if she'd even be allowed. If we can't go home for the Easter hol, then he might not let us go at all until NEWTs are over and done with. I got enough of other Headmaster's fifth year, but I think sometimes everyone's right about Dumbledore. Maybe he is mad. Mum thinks so, but ( Read more... )

You know, I think all that noise we were making on these things actually worked. Looks like things aren't getting censored anymore and it's about bloody time. The Independent's got a bit in there about someone gone missing, and I bet it's something to do with that bloke what lost his head. I got a letter from my brother, finally, and he says things ( Read more... )

You know, I think this whole thing is bollocks. Them putting us up in the bloody Great Hall because it's supposed to be "safe", but what's safe about someone who can get in the castle and kill some poor tosser who didn't know the what and the why. Do they think we're thick as bloody bricks? It's happening again, and it's been happening since first ( Read more... )

You know, it seems like I've been in detention for about years now, and there's still weeks to go of it. At least I'm not in all day on the weekends, just the mornings, though that's annoying enough, as I like to sleep in, you know, and no one else wants to get up that early. But I enjoyed the few free hours I had; went to see the aethonons, and ( Read more... )
