I am sorry. I will not be coming tomorrow. I will try to stop by and see your Mother some other time, Ginny. And perhaps I can see Teddy with you another day, Harry.
I do not want to be anywhere near Ron right now. Or ever once we're done with school.

This has been an eventful week to say the least. I'm rather glad I've been buried for the most part in my studies and able to avoid most of the singing going on.
Of course I did break into a little dance step on my way to Charms the other day, but apparently even magical musical curses seem to respect when a girl can't sing to save her life.

Sometimes I really wonder what I ever saw in him. Is it possible for someone to be that clueless? Really. Good luck, Lavender. Ron might still be my best mate but as people other than myself have said from time to time, he sometimes lacks the best judgment. Yeah. Funny that.

[Private to Ernie]
I'm glad we talked. Really glad.

I think it a foregone point that I will be cheering for Gryffindor this coming game. I will be doing my best, however, to avoid thinking of any of the players and their relations to each other for far beyond the duration of the game. May the best team win.

[Warded to Students]
I think it is very interesting this sort of conception about the Wizarding world and students being somewhat more ignorant about sex and safe sex practices as opposed to the Muggle world. I think I was eight when my parents bought me my first book on sex (A Doctor Talks to 8-10 year olds actually). It was a little confusing but very straightforward from an anatomic and biologic standpoint.
I think that everyone is ready for things at their own time, and putting sort of expectations that you will or won't do things by a certain age is wrong on both counts. I see nothing wrong with two adults engaging in sexual intercourse provided they are both willing to accept potential consequences and responsibility for themselves and their partner's well being. Of course personally I feel more comfortable doing such things in the context of a relationship where I care about the person, but that is my own choice. I prefer to be comfortable and trusting of the person that I share intimate moments with personally.
Perhaps it would be a good idea to introduce some sort of sexual education classes to the Hogwarts curriculum, so that we are not dependent on gossip and hearsay for our education. Certainly that is the way it is done in Muggle schools. I know that the Wizarding world is behind in some ways as far as liberality, but I certainly know also that teenagers are teenagers wherever they are.
I have a list of books in case anyone would like to look over them, and of course as your Head Girl I am always available if you have concerns with an issue, including such as these.

I just want to thank everyone who has been so cooperative thus far with the new rules. They're for our own well being and I am sure, shall not be too much of an inconvenience for us.
[Private to Lavender]
So hypothetically. If someone wished to find fancy knickers, where would one go?

I'm going to Mungos with Harry to check on Ginny and Ron's brother and his wife. They were involved in the attack. Fleur is fine, Bill has been hurt.
Please take on my duties and I will keep you up to date.

I have something I need to talk to you about. Because I don't know if I'm handling it correctly or what to do but I want you to know because you should know. And I know I'm not making any sense but I need to talk to you.

I've been trying to keep busy
Between my studies and Head Girl duties, it hardly seems like there has been time to stop and think let alone relax. Hogsmeade weekend was nice though, although most of it was spent supervising the younger students.
I do hope everyone had a good weekend and enjoyed their time away.
Ron
I've organized our review groups to start soon, if people could please let me know what they want to focus on for NEWTS I would appreciate it so I can assign people and moderators.

Hi. I'm sorry I haven't been around much this week.
We're still on for Hogsmeade, right?
Think you'd like to meet in our room tonight? I want to see you.
I miss you.

I was wondering. Do you think you would let me use the map for an evening?
[/private]
I hadn't realised how much I missed studying. Just being able to sit down with a stack of books and a pile of new parchment, with the smell of ink and books and the friendly scratching of a quill beside me as someone else works on their assignment too. It sounds strange, maybe, but in the past year or so things were so up in the air and it's nice to be able to sit down and work on something and feel the satisfaction that comes from a well researched essay or assignment. It's soothing and a nice reminder that some things are still the same.
[Private to Ernie]
Of course it helps when I have someone to study with who enjoys the library just as much as I do.

For your information if you two can not stop acting like selfish children and resolve your differences like the friends I know you are I am going to wash my hands of BOTH of you until the time when you see fit to stop acting like whiny little three year olds.
With everything that happened, I would think we would want to hold on to each other after all that was lost.
Get over yourself and GROW UP.
Do not bother talking to me about each other until you have bothered to fix this with each other.

I don't know why I imagined life would be so less complicated with the war over. I wonder if we just didn't think about all these things because there was something so much more pressing. I don't pretend to understand what's going on, but things are changing, and I feel like I'm losing both Harry and Ron and I don't know if it will ever be the same. They're still my friends, but it's like we're dissolving. And I don't know what to do about it. Before when they fought I always tried to make the peace and now.. I don't know. They're grown ups. They should be able to work it out and if they can't I will be friends with them both but I'm not going to be the one in the middle anymore. I've defined myself by my relationship with them for so long and it feels like maybe just now I'm starting to find myself.
With all the hardships other people are going through right now, it seems so silly to be fighting about this, although I can't help but think its more.
[/private]
[Private to Ernie]
What are you doing after class?

I always thought the process of erosion was interesting. How one little trickle of water can eventually cause a massive crevasse. And when you look at the walls you see all the years and layers of history stacked up in the fossils and you look at it and wonder how all that happened and in the meantime this massive gaping hole has opened up below you and you never even realised.

[Cursed against all faculty, journalists, and Ministry officials with an extremely powerful repelling curse as well as a spell which makes it unreadable by anyone over the age of 20]
It has come to our attention via the Daily Prophet that the journals are being monitored. I urge everyone to use privacy hexes against anyone not at Hogwarts and avoid saying anything even within wards which might be considered incriminating.

So, hypothetically, what sort of things are good things to do when you are going out with someone for the first time?

( Warded Private )
I think the choices we make in life say a lot about who we are and the people we become. Sometimes they're wrong choices, but if we recognize that and are able to move on and learn from them and become better people, there is always a chance we can overcome the obstacles set in our way and move on, wiser and more grateful for the things that surround us, for second chances.
I've been thinking a lot about forgiveness lately, and also about regret. There are things I regret not saying or doing, but for the most part I feel I've lived my life the way I wanted to. I don't know if everyone has that luxury or the ability to make those choices when things like fear and outside influence stand in the way.
I sometimes wonder how much of our choices stem from our need to be respected, our wanting to be loved, our inherent need to have others recognize us as human. I think sometimes people go about this the wrong way and for the wrong reasons. I think sometimes we find ourselves in a situation we never intended and that we have no idea how to rectify. I sometimes wonder how many mistakes we ourselves have to make before we are willing to have forgiveness in our hearts for others.
I sometimes wonder about our capacity to love.

The skating party has been arranged for Saturday evening after the Quidditch matches. We've set up to Transfigure skates and have refreshments, and there will be signups for snowball fight and snowfort building teams as well.
I think this is an excellent opportunity for our school to come together and relax and enjoy ourselves, and I think it goes without saying that all sixth and seventh years are welcome and that house rivalries will be expected to be put aside for the evening in the interest of good will and future inter house cooperation.
I've also taken it on myself to speak with the Headmistress about the formation of a Defence club where we can have Aurors and other mentors speak with us and conduct extra lessons to help us all improve our skills as well as provide a healthy learning environment for those who would like to explore possible career options after NEWTS.

I've come along well with my studying this week, according to schedule anyway, and I've been thinking maybe we ought to have some activities just to break back into the school year for a bit of fun. I propose maybe this upcoming weekend we have some sort of winter picnic? We could have it down by the lake with some skating and snowball fights and perhaps we could have a bonfire? It might be fun and give everyone a chance to just enjoy themselves and blow off some steam.
I've been working with Draco and Professor Clearwater on some ideas for the Muggle studies trips, and if anyone would like extra information or like to talk about Muggles I would be happy to assist you.

I have done all my work for class and finished some revisions, and now I'm sitting here and realizing how strange it is to be back at school after having been away from it for a year and a half. Especially last year, there were no walls really or carefully prepared meals in the Great Hall. The safety is nice, and not having to eat jacket potatoes is good as well, but still it's different. It's odd how it can be quiet when there's so many people here.
I never thought I'd miss that tent. Not talking to Ron is
