Is anyone else slightly contemplating staying here over the holiday break? Is that even still an option?

There is nothing like enjoying a nice quite common room next to the fire place.

So, it’s about three weeks until Formal. Aunt Libby sent me my outfit this morning by owl. It’s really pretty. But I don’t think I’m going. I’d rather not go alone, and I’m too shy to actually ask anyone myself, with the whole “fear of rejection” and all. Perhaps I’d get over it if I’d just stop over-analyzing everything, and stop trying to be ( Read more... )

I've spent most of they day trying to cover my ears, and not make it look like my ears are caught on fire, thanks to that darn pepperup potion. If it wasn't for the fact that the last few days I've felt like crap, I wouldn't have taken it, but I don't like feeling sick, so what are you going to do?
