I think I'm getting the hang of these journal things, now. Still a bit disconcerting to see others reply to my entry, but I'm sure it will become second nature in no time.
Lisa came over for a quick lunch yesterday and we had a nice
chat. She made me feel a little bit better, and I think I am really up for the trip to Diagon Alley on Thursday now. I wasn't positive about it - it sounds like the whole journal project is going, and I don't many of them. Still, my mother - and Lisa - will be happy that I'm getting out of the flat.
I've been thinking about what Lisa said, about apprenticing with Madam Pomfrey. I really feel the need to help the cause now; I can't just stand idly by while all these horrible things are happening. I will have to speak to Madam Pomfrey, of course, but it does sound like the perfect thing for me.
I feel so much better now that I have a plan of action. All the moping wasn't doing me any good, at all.
Looking forward to dinner at the Parkinson's on Wednesday and Diagon Alley on Thursday.
