I lost our House 10 points today. To all Hufflepuffs, I apologize, and I shall do my best to ensure that such a thing does not occur again.
Rabi told me to rescind the deduction, and so I did.
I am completely, utterly, and thoroughly ashamed of myself. When did I become so judgemental? When did I begin to think the worst of Rabi, whom I've known since his first year? I know him! I know that he's harmless! So why?
And how can I ever face him again? How can I even face my responsibilities as prefect, knowing that I can so easily misjudge and abuse my power? Giving me that honor was a mistake....as I so self-righteously told Tringham, actions reveal character better than titles, and my own actions have shown me to be nothing but a self-righteous, power-happy, immature cub. Five years here have taught me nothing. I harp and harp about tolerance and respect, and yet give none myself. I am the worst sort of hypocrite.
Grandfather, I wish you were here. I need your wisdom.
