I am slowly beginning to feel myself again. I suppose all these pepper-up potions are helping (with much thanks to Millicent.) I still haven't recieved any soup yet, but this is not Millicent's fault at all.
I have managed to keep my head up in classes and take decent notes on the lessons, but despite the interesting topic matter of Professor Binns' class, his monotonous voice acts much like a lullaby. It is unfortunate that such a wonderful topic could not be lectured on by a more animated speaker. However, Professor Binns is a nice man and he does know his subject well.
Most days Draco, Millicent, and I walk to classes together, sometimes with Greg and Vince along. Lately, I have the sneaking suspicion that Draco has gained a stalker, and it isn't me. I have yet to see the person, but I did catch a glimpse of brownish hair. Of course, I've been taking so much pepper-up potions I wouldn't put it past myself to have imagined it. Although perhaps I shouldn't have mentioned it as I don't think Draco will be too thrilled at the prospect. There are enough girls at the other house tables making eyes at him during supper.
However, that's unimportant. Yesterday, we had another animagus class. It was quite informative and the lectures were interesting. However, I could not help but feel there was a lot of tension between the teachers. Professor McGonagall looked quite impatient with Professors Lupin and Black, and to be honsest, I truly feel for her because she is such a wonderful teacher who takes her job so seriously. However, despite whatever personal problems were affecting them, all the professors did a wonderful job in the end.
