I've only just now finished reading the application we got from Hermione Granger for our flatmate advertisement. Padma read it first, because she's a faster reader than me, and it still took her eight hours and twenty-three minutes. I only know this because she timed herself each time she sat down to continue reading it and then she added all the times together. Anyway, she gave the application to me on Thursday and told me to read it, so I did. Hello, I had to have a life as well, which is already getting sucked away because of N.E.W.T.s.
Anyway the point is, in between eating and sleeping and breathing and studying, it took me until a few minutes ago to finish reading it. I think there were seventeen pages, or something like that, and Hermione has small writing too. I meant to finish it last night, but I woke up this morning to find I'd been using it as a pillow - I don't feel that stupid because a lot of my friends are finding lately that books make suitable pillows, too.
Hermione, I'll come see you later but Padma and I both think it would be interesting, you living with us, so thank you for your novella and you're accepted! That sounds really pompous to say but I didn't know how else to say it!
In other news, I got an A for my journal, seeing as everyone seems to be comfortable with sharing their marks. And I haven't burst into tears over exams, but I think I'll add a "yet". I've yet to investigate the sympathy mark.
