Just the sweet watermelon and the buckwheat cake
Ev'rybody is as happy as a man can be
Climb aboard, little wog
Sail away with me"

Well, back at Hogwarts for that much-talked about Final Year. The Train here was uneventful, I had several hundred pages on ritual sacrifices and horse breeding (not related topics in any way) to keep me occupied. Did anyone know that the top American sire right now is getting US$500000 for a single breeding? It's insane. And most of the offspring are making that investment worth it.

So after this year, I head off on my own. Sort of. It's not like I'm going to abandon all my belongings and move to Tibet. More like move a little ways away from London (and therefore, my parents) and find some breeding operation that would be willing to take me on as an apprentice of sorts.

But I'm planning far into the future. Too far. Right now, I think I'll just try and make it through this year.

Which shouldn't be that bad.
