Resurfacing.

[importance_of]

Only two weeks into summer hols, Mum decided I was working too hard with all my revising. I tried to remind her what an impact N.E.W.T.s would have on my future (as if she didn't remember from her own Hogwarts years!), but she refused to listen. Immediately she LIMITED my available study hours and demanded that I spend at least two hours a day

Eloise had a very nice summer, thank you.

Very glad to hear it, Eloise.

I'm alive and faring reasonably well.

I'm glad your mother seems to have more common sense than you do. NEWTs aren't everything, Erns.

Well, of course they aren't EVERYTHING, Justin. No single thing can be said to be everything. But the fact remains that they determine our futures, and I wish to be prepared.

Though you really ought to learn to play snooker if you haven't yet.

You know, Ern... NEWTs aren't everything.

I had a pretty uneventful summer. Hope the year goes better.

A few of us are going to meet up in Diagon Alley before term. You're welcome to join us if you'd like.

Yes, I know, they aren't EVERYthing! But still, very important in the scheme of things.

Diagon Alley? Brilliant. All you have to do is name the time and place.

[susie_ann]

We'll figure that out when we've got an idea of everyone who will be attending. I'll let you know as soon as I find out.

The parts of the summer when Dad let me go visit people were good. Most of my time spent at home was boring.

I've heard you spent some time at the fair. I'm sure THAT was entertaining, at least.
