HELP HELP I'M GOING MAD!!!
The N.E.W.T.s are in 32 days and I am studying every single night. I have so much homework I can't even walk straight down the hallways because my bag weighs more than I do! Professor McGonagall is the worst of it but then Professor Vector is very nearly as bad because she is giving us all scrolls and scrolls of homework to do every single lesson. And then I have my music performance which is to put a Hippogriff to sleep with my flute and I can't practise because the other Ravenclaw are tired of falling asleep in the common room whenever I play. So I have to try and practise out of doors but I don't have any TIME!!
Don't even get me started on Potions. Though lessons have been interesting. I kind of like the new classroom. And Professor Snape's cat is very sweet, it likes to rub on my legs during class. It bit Roger Davies though and now he's running round telling people he's a vampire and trying to bite people. He bit Pridget on the arm and so she punched him in the head. Professor Snape took points but I think I saw him trying not to laugh. I've never seen that before not in seven whole years! I guess the cat agrees with him, and I really like her name, and when Roger had detention the other day he said Snape calls the cat Lily when he thinks nobody's listening. That is pretty!
Anyway I haven't even seen Ginny in three days and I think I might just have to break into Gryffindor tower and steal her. I need a holiday! WE NEED A HOLIDAY IS IT SUMMER YET?!
Not that it really matters because this summer I am stuck helping Mum with the shop and she's saying she's going to start training me to take over. My brother doesn't want to take over because he thinks quills are boring. And they are! I don't want to work there either but then there's no one to take over the shop, and I feel so bad about that so. I guess it's me. I wish I could do something else though. I really want to work with animals. Professor Lupin have you got any ideas because I really need some! I don't want to be stuck selling quills forever!
I hope though I can get away for a week or two and go somewhere fun. Ginny what are you doing this summer? Do you think your mum would let you come and visit me? We live in London so there's loads to do - Diagon Alley is just down the road but then there's Muggle London and that's brilliant. Ron could come too though I'd like Hermione to come with him so she can keep him busy sometimes if you know what I mean!!
OKAY BACK TO WORK I HATE THE NEWTS PLEASE SOMEONE TURN ME INTO A FROG OR SOMETHING.
