I got some papers in the post this morning. Legal stuff. One's a copy of Mum's will. Dad said she left me some things. I haven't read it. Her funeral was last week. Dad fire-talked me and told me about it. I could hear my grandparents in the background. I wish they would have shut up. I don't know why they were even there. They never bothered to ( Read more... )

My mum is dead. Draco Malfoy killed my mum. You're all saying how sorry you feel that he's dead. I shouldn't have read what anyone is saying about it but I did and now I feel sick. He murdered my mother and you all feel sorry for him? What the fuck is wrong with you ( Read more... )

Gee, what a lovely little walk that was. If I knew my time was going to be wasted by being triumphantly dragged into an empty room, I would have claimed I was washing my hair and remained in my dormitory. In fact, I think I could have better spent that hour filing my nails with Tracey and discussing the latest beauty potions and which Weird Sister' ( Read more... )

I really don't understand why people are whinging about the number of cats in Hogwarts all of a sudden. Aside from causing a mess every now and again, who are they bothering? Well, aside from each other. Bia is still shadowing Pixie, but other than that she's well a behaved kitty. She doesn't hiss at or harass the house elves, follows along without ( Read more... )

Things have certainly been busy lately. One of the muggle royalty was killed in an automobile accident, for one, and everyone's going bonkers and crying "assassination!", and there was some sort of "light show," as they put it, over Cork a few days back. The muggle explanation of it being from a swarm of insects and an aircraft is laughable. Are ( Read more... )

Anyone who is surprised by what happened shouldn't be. Dumbledore's fun was just begging for something like this to happen, though I would have preferred that it didn't involve me getting punched in the middle of breakfast. My face is still throbbing. I hope that stupid runt gets a scar ( Read more... )

Although it's still unfortunate that we had to spend the holiday at school, I actually didn't mind it so much. I got to attend to some books that I had been eager to finish reading, and I caught up on my schoolwork, so I'll have a bit of a break this week when it comes to studying ( Read more... )

I had stopped reading the papers ages ago because there was really no point, but I keep hearing mention of Hogwarts making yesterday's edition and so I had a look. I think it strange that a murdered body showing up at a school got such a small, insignificant mention. If something like that is so dismissively stuck in there, it makes me wonder what ( Read more... )

I can't sleep. No one can sleep. Well, a few people are asleep, but I see a lot of students sitting up because they just gave up. No one is allowed to talk or even whisper because people are supposed to be sleeping. I don't know how they can expect us to sleep with this going on. They're outside looking for a murderer and we're expected to sleep. ( Read more... )

Oh, hell, it's just a bruise. Everyone can stop staring now, thanks. And no, no one bloody punched me, I tripped on a tree root outside yesterday and my face had an unfortunate encounter with a rather thick fallen branch. I know, I should have seen Pomfrey about it then, but I wasn't bleeding and I had better things to do than have her fuss over ( Read more... )
