Ugh. What a horrible day. I woke up at 4:30 for no reason at all, which wouldn’t be so bad except for the part where I couldn’t get back to sleep. I didn’t even have a nightmare or anything!! And I know my mum can tell too, because she kept giving me funny looks this morning…I know I’m never usually up early in the summer, but I should be allowed to change my habits without getting stared at, shouldn’t I?
I bet she’ll try to put me on that sleeping-potion again. Sometimes it is very annoying when your mum’s a healer. She just uses any possible excuse to pour some new concoction down my throat, and half the time I don’t think she even knows if it’s going to work! I am no one’s human guinea pig.
Of course, for the rest of the day I was saddled with my little brother, and, though he is adorable, I really should be getting to work on my summer assignments. I did need a bit of a break before I dove into schoolwork again, but at this rate I won’t even have written more than three pieces of parchment for that history assignment.
Oh, what summer larks I enjoy. I really cannot wait to get back to Hogwarts at this point. Is anyone else doing something more interesting? I would love to get out of the house, even if most of you are contemptible only for a little while.
Okay, it's OOC time. I don't want to do it in the community because it's not that important, but I do think everyone should have a bit more information about Mandy's personality.
Mandy is competitive and narcissistic. It's a recognized fact that she's intelligent, and she enjoys beating most of the school when it comes to grades. She doesn't appreciate anyone being better than her at activities she enjoys, and really isn't too good at accepting constructive criticism. While she doesn't necessarily hate everyone, she doesn't try hard to get to know people. If they seem like idiots to her, she accepts that judgement as sound, and Mandy doesn't want to get involved with morons. On the other hand, she at least has the good sense to keep most of her judgements to herself, so it isn't likely that any of your characters have actually been insulted by her, at least not to their faces.
Hopefully that helps with the basic stuff. :D
