I didn't know Susan much, aside from quidditch. I thought she was well daft when she did that thing to her hair, and for a stupid ball too. Still, she was funny and told a lot of stories and I don't know why I'm never going to see her again ( Read more... )

I got here on Sunday just in time to have supper. Then I talked to Professor Sprout for what felt like forever AND then I realised what I'd done. Apparently, Patil left before I got here, so somebody clearly likes me. Boot isn't here either, which is a bit strange, but the fact remains that I never wanted him here to start with. Malfoy is somewhere ( Read more... )

Not really at home yet, we lot went to Ed's house (that's Edward Stebbins if you don't know who I'm talking about) and we're going to stay for a few days here. But it might as well be home, because it's not school! Nobody is bonkers, we can go wherever we want, and there are no teachers and no strangers, just Hufflepuffs. Well, Ed's older brothers ( Read more... )

Last night was the anniversary of the Walpurgisnacht attacks. I remember that when I was six or so, my parents took me to the places that had been burnt down in Newent, and then to see the memorial plaque in the main square. Then my Mum said she decided that night to never have children, because nobody deserved to live in a world like that ( Read more... )

Malfoy, I want the line-up for the Slytherin team and I think it'd be in good form to have it at least two hours before the match. I'm not going to cut you some slack because your chaser thought he'd rather murder and maim people than finish school ( Read more... )

Congratulations, Ravenclaw. I knew you could do it.

...Have you been celebrating the whole week, or did the lot of you just go back to your books as regularly scheduled?

BOOT IS ON THE SCHOOL GROUNDS. I JUST SAW THE BASTARD.

WHAT IS HE DOING HERE?

Monday and Tuesday were just piss funny, except I spent all the time outside quidditch practice avoiding Hannah and Bones. It was something like a sick joke, really, that they switched bodies. Now everybody's saying that people switched with people they've snogged, and. Not to mention our special guests, who made me realise there were some things ( Read more... )

If this is the nonsense you lot usually crack out on the journals, then take no offence, but I'm never reading them again regardless of what Finch-Fletchley says I'm missing.

Also, I saw one of those Hogwarts Heralds that somebody had left around in a corridor. First, that person could have binned the newspaper, and keep the school clean! Second ( Read more... )

Er, so apparently Mrs Malfoy got tired of lounging around her manor and decided to work for a change? Because it can't be that she needs the money.

And before anyone says anything, this is my journal and I've the right to write my opinions in it. I haven't been disrespectful or, what's the word? Right, yes, defamed anyone ( Read more... )
