You know, it's really hard to keep up with everybody when you forget to pack your journal with you when you go home.

Home wasn't all that great. I'd been looking forward to it since September. Mum was annoyed that I wasn't doing right by my teachers, and how didn't I have respect for them? I explained to him all about the little games they'd

Chase who? Kidding, kidding. Sorry to hear you had a crap holiday, mate. Mine wasn't too spectacular either. Hope you enjoyed your present!

[unapt_trimble]

Yeah, sounds like a lot of us didn't have a great holiday. I'm not sure if I'm okay with saying I'm glad to be back. Did you try telling your parents about what was going on?

And thank you for your present. I'd have sent mine in the post, but I'm no where near a OWL Post office. I'll have yours at breafast for you.

[lucylike]

I think I'd be worried about you if you DID.

No. I mean...I told my Dad that the school was being run by lunatics now, but who knows if that ever got to him. I'm fairly certain he wouldn't believe me anyway. He never believes me

Well there's a good reason to be up in time for breakfast! I'll bring you some ink, too, as it looks as though you've spilled all of yours. You do that a lot, Chasey. If you're not careful, you'll turn into a horrible clutz like me and everyone will start guarding their breakables when you're around.

I told my dad...he fought with my mum to keep me at home. She wasn't having that though. It's...just disheartening.

Lucy dear, we both know that's not an ink spill.

[cornstalks]

I remember you. Maybe just a little bit.

Happy New Years to you!

[unapt_trimble]

Hi. I missed you over hols. A lot. I'm sorry I wasn't in touch.

Happy New Years to you too.

[cornstalks]

I missed you, too. And that's not a big deal, I reckon it's a busy time, so I just hope it was nice for you, even if it sucked. Was there at least one nice moment?

Thank you!

[unapt_trimble]

I got to see my dad...that was nice. Did you have a good one?

You're welcome.

Thinking about resolutions is better than thinking about everything else going on.

[unapt_trimble]

Very good point my dear Eloise.

[hasanose]

Thanks. I agree it's kind of silly, but that's all I could think of writing about without getting sad.

[unapt_trimble]

Perhaps I should do some of my own then. Might be something to take my mind off things.

[wiseoldking]

NOPE. I CAN'T THINK OVER ALL THE WHINGING.

[unapt_trimble]

Poor you. I shall send you a preserves basket.

[onetoughpuff]

Yes.

[unapt_trimble]

Thanks Smith, you're a card.

[onetoughpuff]

Indeed.
