I never thought I'd mind being invisible - though I don't suppose I've ever succeeded at it as well as Jediah. That's not exactly the point though. Invisibility was always something to appreciate before now. But somehow, recently, it's become more of a hindrance than I ever expected it to be. Going unnoticed was supposed to make like easier. Now, though, I find myself wishing there were something about me that stood out.
Aside from being buried in books all the time, I mean. There's not really, though. And that's more than a tad distressing, considering the current state of things.
The current state of things being my brother's suspicions having been turned away by my other brother's good sense (I knew Adam had it in him somewhere, I'm just wondering why he chose that moment to let it show through) and the fact that I'm now forced to smile and nod through NEWTs review with Ethan while he smiles like an idiot.
Yes. Ethan Worthington has been smiling like an idiot. It's positively nauseating.
Which is uncharitable, I suppose. And rather mean-spirited. But he's dating Padma. And he had the nerve to think she'd do something so base as to cheat on him. Honestly. That would be so common. And she is...so very uncommon. She is...intelligent and witty. She's beautiful in a lovely sort of...unattainable way. Which is the problem, ultimately. Though I suppose unattainable might not be the right word, as Ethan has attained her. Which really does make my stomach turn.
I don't even want to think about it.
Despite the earliness of the night, I think...it would most likely be best for me to give up studying for the night (ha, it's not like I've accomplished anything. I've ended up writing in this thing to distract myself from thoughts that it turn out I can't escape).
Bugger. I don't even want to try reading through the new texts the Incan Ministry has forwarded to me.

I'm off to sleep. I do you everyone else has a lovely night. Oh - and Ethan? I'll not be able to make the study session tomorrow. Terribly sorry.
