A Busy Week

While I was in the infirmary with Madam Pomfrey recovering from my illness, I took some time to catch up on some reading about vampires and werewolves. It was extremely interesting reading and I look forward to reading more at a later date. I also had time to work on the socks started from the yarn I received in my last swap kit from Ferula Vector. They're almost done, just need to finish up the leg on the second sock. I'll be sure to post pictures once they're complete. I've also been working on the journal for my spoilee this term. Its progressing nicely and I might post a teaser picture up a little later. I sure hope she likes it. I put in the order for the rest of her goodies this morning so hopefully they should be here soon. I'm really enjoying putting her kit together and I hope she likes it a lot.

I also won the first round of the sock duel. Now onto the second round!

The Term Begins

Whooo what a week...between classes and getting signed up for dueling club, I haven't had much time to be up to mischief. I will need to do some brushing up on my dueling. I see my housemates however have not wasted anytime getting into trouble. Cass has developed some new type of candy to trick the first years with and I've heard there's been some mischief in the other dorms. And worst yet, Cass has a Crucio List! Lets just say I'm gonna try to stay off of that!

Speaking of dorms, let me introduce you to my dormmates. There's Ceciley Fortescue, Ariande Malfoy and Andromeda Finch-Fletchley. Together we are the Sultry Sirens of Slytherin. They're all first years so this should make for an interesting term.

Has anyone seen the new DADA professor...he's hott...no wonder Wisteria was hanging all over him.

A New Term Begins

I've recently arrived back at Hogwarts for my second term. It's great to see old friends as well as the first years milling about the halls. We've got quite a full house this term.

I was one of the lucky 2nd year students to be able to get an Inter-House Unity Scholarship. She told me she would like me to be able to experience other houses to spread unity among them. Picking which house to join for this term, however, was quite a challenge. I seriously considered joining Ravenclaw, but I ran into Professor Snape in the hallway. He really wanted me to join Slytherin house and let me know that many of my former Gryffindor housemates had decided to join Slytherin house. Well...I just couldn't resist...I've always wanted to know what the dark side was like.

I'm also on very good terms with the prefect for Slytherin house. Tee hee....I'm sure she wouldn't mind if I caused a little mischief this term.
