"Twist and tug, twist and tug, Up in the air on a flying rug!"
Or didn't your older relatives ever play that with you when you were little ones? It tended to make Peri laugh so hard we were afraid she might do herself a mischief -- though as she would explain now, that was when she was much younger, all of two years ago. (I shall make this message private lest it get back to her that I have been telling stories about what she is currently referring to as her childhood, from her now advanced age of nine.)
As to History, a leader of the History Club could do that OWL in her sleep, so if you did nap, it's just fine. It really wasn't much of a stretch, that exam. Lack of rigor can of course lead to temptation; I admit to committing some rather cunning Byronic allusions in the essay about the Wizarding actions that influenced certain turning points in British history of the last six centuries. I can't decide whether I hope whoever marks my exam catches them or not.
Tomorrow should be interesting. It's a good thing Professor Dolohov has been working with those of us in the Theoretical section to make certain we can cope with the practical challenges. I'm feeling quite confident, really.
