Defence and Birthdays and Trolls

[alt_padma]

I can write in hear now because it's History of Magic this morning. Not in Charms, tho. (I lost five points Monday)

Yesterday was our Defence Against the Dark Arts lesson and I was planning to ask Professor Lockhart to tell one of his storys about fighting dark wizards but instead since we take Defence with Slytherin, Professor Lockhart asked Marvolo to come up and ecsplane how he (and Malfoy and Weasley 6) killed the troll on Halloween. That was almost as ecsiting as hearing Professor Lockhart tell storeys, only not quiet as ecsiting because Marvolo didnt make sound effects or play all the caractors the way Professor Lockhart does. Anyway after Harry did his show-and-tell, Professor Lockhart asked us to partner and write about Travels with Trolls and compare Harry's fight to his (Professor Lockhart's) defeat of the Tunbridge Wells Troll. I wowned up partnering with Daphne on the essay.

Of coarse, Daphne and me also talked about Parkinson. Daphne said Parkinson might be ecspelled if she doesnt toe the line. She told me how hard it is because Bulstrode is, well, practically a troll herself, and then there's Perks, and she hoped she and Parkinson might have more in common, but of coarse, Parkinson has been very disappointing as a roomate.

Of coarse, then this morning I saw Mr Malfoy's entry about Parkinson's mum, and I supose everyone is going to forget about ecspelling her because they feel sorrey for her. I'm sorrey for her mum being ill but that doesn't change what she said. I'm going to ask Professor Sinistra in our lecture today whether some one can stop being a Muggle lover just because their mum gets ill.

She's been ill before, to, hasnt she? Parkinson's mum?

Anyway, then last night we found out it was Michael's birthday and we asked the house elfs for cakes and they sent up tea cakes and tea, but it was fun and I couldnt tell if the tea was transfigured or not.

So Parvati, if you and Lavender get Professor Lockhart to tell a story in your lesson, you have to tell me about it later!!

Perks, if you want to talk to me about when the Ravenclaws are avalable to play, I've got a free period after Astronomy. (If you dont want to start this weekend because of Parkinson we can put it off until the first weekend in December.)

Well if Professor Lockhart had asked me to come up and help tell the story I would have added sound effects and such. But not the smell effects, or you might have passed out.

[alt_padma]

Yeah, why d'you supose he didnt ask you to help? You were there too and you did just as much as Marvolo, I heard.

Professor Lockhart's awfully good at sound effects tho, isn't he?

[alt_draco]

I guess he didnt hear that I was there, otherwise he would have surely asked me to help.

He's decent at them, but should try to make some of the creatures sound scarrier. I don't think vampires scream like women when they attack.

[alt_padma]

I guess, but that doesnt make sense. Everyone knew you were both there.

That was funny - I remeber that. Maybe he'll tell that one again before the end of term? (I wonder if Professor Lockhart ever did any acting before he became a professor? We shoudl ask next lesson. I love DADA the way he teaches - it's so interesting!)

Is Parkinson's mum going to die? Id feel bad if that hapened.

[alt_draco]

Of course she's not going to die.

[alt_padma]

Oh.

[alt_harry]

It wasn't exciting at all it was horrible. Why does he have to do that?!

[alt_padma]

Well, Marvolo, your famous, so I mean, isn't it obvius why? He must of thought you did realy well, or he wouldnt of wanted us to compare your fight to his. I wish he would of asked Malfoy to help, tho, cuz he says he'd of done sound effects.

What did you say in your essay? Malfoy said it smelled really horrible.

[alt_harry]

Draco culd have done the whole thing as far as I'm concerned. I guess I know why but that doesn't mean I have to like it.

I said it smelled horrible too and also that it was very big and we could smell it a long way away.

[alt_draco]

Did you write that it smelled of toilet and rubbish and a bit like vom, too?

[alt_harry]

No I think I said it was like when Crabbe doesn't have a bath for too long.

Maybe I shouldntve said Crabbe, just "some body," so Crabbe doesnt get offended. Only I don't think Professor Lockhart will tell.

Not this weekend, no, and not the last weekend in November because of Quidditch. I think the first weekend in December would be best if it works for all the houses.

[alt_padma]

Alright. Saturday or Sunday? Linus says Sunday because that way we've got all of Saturday for homework, but Morag would rather Saturday so that she has a reeson not to work all day.

I don't much care either way as long as we can lie in for the morning

[alt_sally_anne]

I'd prefer Saturday. I'd rather let my homework sit until Sunday, if I can.
