I've gained 5 lbs.

Yeah, I know this journal is public and everyone at Hogwarts who subscribes to the Wizarding Wireless Network will be able to see it, but I don't care. Everyone already knows I'm fat anyway.

Today was uneventful and boring, but sketching was the highlight of the day. (As usual.) Theo and I were supposed to go out to the cliffs and sketch the sunset, but it turned out to be rainy (read: a downpour) and so we stayed inside. I don't know if he's reading this, but if he is, he should know that because of him, I have a splitting headache, because someone forced me to spend the first hour of the greenhouse session going over Transfiguration notes! This same someone doesn't realize that the greenhouse sessions are supposed to be fun and relaxing, because he doesn't have those two words in his vocabulary. :)

January 1, 1996

Since it's the first day of the New Year, I've decided to be exciting and original and start keeping a journal. Right now, it's eight o'clock in the evening and I'm sitting in my dormitory in Hufflepuff Hall, typing away on the computer my Dad got me when last year. The draperies around my bed are thankfully closed, since I'm technically not supposed to be having a computer. (On the first day of fifth year, I managed to sneak it in at the bottom of my trunk without anyone noticing. I'm sure that if anyone found out, I'd be in deep shit.)

Winter holiday was loads of fun. I went home to London and spent the two weeks with Mom, Dad, Rhiannon, and Rhys. Rhys, if you read this, I didn't appreciate you hiding my sketchbook on the roof. You are a wretched little nuisance. :) Rhiannon was home from Uni and she and I were finally able to hang out. In fact, we had a good long talk about something I know very little about but am rather interested in: boys. Rhiannon of course has had several boyfriends, being the social butterfly she is, and gave me some valuable advice.

1) When trying to find a boyfriend, go for the ones with whom you have something in common, be it a hobby, quirk, etc.

2) Avoid boys who already have a love interest, even if she's not technically their girlfriend. You'll only end up depressed and rejected.

There are more, but I'm too lazy to type it all out.

Here are the classes I'm taking this term:

Potions. (I love the material but HATE Snape.)

Care of Magical Creatures. (I really don't like this class; the animals Professor Hagrid chooses are nothing short of lethal!)

Transfiguration. (This class is hard and Professor McGonagall frightens me.)

Charms. (Love it--Professor Flitwick is so sweet!)

Astronomy. (This class is so much fun. Professor Sinistra is so intelligent and pretty!)

And, my elective: Ancient Runes. (I've been in this class since 3rd year and have always loved it. Don't get me wrong, it's extremely complicated stuff, but I think I thrive on the challenge of it.)

Anyway, I'm excited for this year to start. I don't have any silly ideas of making new friends or *snort* finding a boyfriend, but I'm still excited. I'm planning to start a painting of this mermaid I saw during a CoMC lesson, who apparently is called Griselda the Green. If she permits me, I'll definitely sketch her and then put it into a painting.

I'm off to bed now; Potions early tomorrow morning. *sigh*
