You know, I think planning exams during the beginning of the most fantastic and beautiful time of year is an ill-conceived plan. I mean, who wants to be studying and revising when the sun is finally shining and it's so brill outside and perfect flying weather? Who can even bloody well focus enough to try when it's like this? They really ought to move it to a more morose time of year when there's nothing better to do.

Speaking of not studying, who is up for a fly about?

Brilliant match over the weekend. Both Slytherin and Ravenclaw played exceptionally well. I'm getting nervous for our next mat- That was a brill catch, Parkin.

I'm decidedly over the fact that professors think it amusing to try and drown us in school work. I swear to Merlin, it's like they enjoy watching us flounder with it all. Between this and trying to squeeze in a bit of extra time on the pitch, I'm never going to get any sleep ever again.

How long til summer hols?

ATTENTION EVERYONE:
Just because my boyfriend writes a note in his journal about us spending some time alone together, doesn't imply that we're going to shag. I'd kindly ask that the lot of you quit discussing my business as though I can't bloody read it. It's obnoxious. And rude.

AND RONALD WEASLEY YOU AND I NEED TO BLOODY WELL HAVE A CONVERSATION ABOUT MY AGE, MY BUSINESS AND DOUBLE BLOODY STANDARDS.

Congratulations on the win, Hufflepuff.

I haven't stopped sneezing since this morning. If I get a cold just as the warm weather gets here I'm going to be severely put out.

The break was completely and utterly fantastic. I'm so glad I went home for it. Weather was been bloody perfect and Mum was happy that we were all there and everything and then there's Charlie and George and Percy and even Fleur didn't drive me completely mental while she was there with Bill.

Hope everyone had a fantastic breaks as well!

Four days! Then it's the Burrow for Easter hols which I have a sizable pile of work already and it's only Monday, but it'll still be nice to be home for a bit. Judging from the owls I've been getting Mum is excited to see us all. Can't bloody wait!

Bugger bugger bugger bugger Does anyone have the Charms notes? My darling pet got into my inks again and danced all over mine and well...footprints are hard to read through.

Had a brill time in Hogsmeade over the weekend. Happy spring, everyone, by the way. I'm glad winter is done with. Sick of the bloody cold and all. Rain season is next which should be rightly brilliant. Flying in a storm is probably the most exhilarating thing I've ever done. Can't wait.

ANDY! Two galleon bet! Invite the Headmistress for high tea for tomorrow.

GRYFFINDOR WINS!!!!

I'd have written sooner, but I've been busy celebrating.

Was a right bloody brilliant match though. Good show, Ravenclaw!

Spring has gotten very close to springing. The weather has been absolutely gorgeous the past couple of days. Hope it keeps it up for Saturday's match!

Brilliant match today. Right exciting and all. Congratulations, Ravenclaw. Enjoy the win while you can.

Oi, whoever borrowed my Charms book, I need it back! I left my notes in there and I have that essay still to write. I'd appreciate it.

Hogsmeade was brill. Stocked up on sweets and got myself a few sugar quills which are absolutely aces, innit? Looking forward to the match next weekend. Should be brutal like with both teams looking so good. Dunno who I'm pulling for yet, so get your bribes in early and often!

Ron, I've a letter I'm sending off to Mum if you wanted to add on to it. She sounded right ticked in her last that we've been horribly neglectful children so if you'd like to avoid a howler...

Match this weekend! If I seem less than enthusiastic about everything else, that's probably because I am.

Less controversial than bible verses, I'm sure, but a slight bit more important to me at the moment...

Has anyone seen Arnold roaming around? He's about the size of a large dust bunny and kind of looks like one too, 'cept...purply-pink like. I normally don't worry so much about him cause he's a bit terrified of the common room lately and all, but he likes doing my Astronomy essays with me and I haven't seen him around and...

Just lemme know, yeah? And erm...watch where you step.

Harry, you'd better hurry up with that team list cause I can't sit still.

It was a brill weekend, all in all though. Quidditch came back. Nate gave me an ace reading. I reworked my Transfiguration essay with Luna's help and managed to get my Charms work started on so I won't be rushing to finish that.

I have rounds tomorrow. Which is just as well as the pitch won't be available after dinner anyhow and I might as well. I forgot to check who I'm with. Ah well. Surprises are fun sometimes.

I feel a little spacey tonight. Everything seems scattered.

Seriously, Harry. Get that list together.

Bugger all if I didn't go ahead and spill ink all over my bloody Transfiguration essay. The last thing in the world I want to do is spend the rest of the night in the library trying to recreate it. Feckfeckfeck

The only bright spot is I finished Potions so I won't have to pull an all-nighter. Damndamndamn

Don't really know what to say about the whole thing. So I don't think I'll say much except that I wouldn't have pegged Smith for that sort. He's a huge sodding bit of a prat, but I never thought he was a wretched person all-together. I reckon we're all in a bit of shock like.

On a bit of a brighter note, the scrimmage yesterday and the events that followed I think were a brilliant smash. Though, I might need a trip to the infirmary after skating.

I'm going to drown under this pile of work. If no one sees me in a few days, send help, yeah?
