Greetings Hogwarts,

My name is Dr. Raava Balan, I was brought on by the Headmaster after recent events. I apologize it has taken longer than expected for me to arrive, I was held up by unforeseeable events. Starting today, I am here full time.

What you need to know about me.

- I was educated in both London and India
- I have attended both Muggle medical universities and Wizarding medical schools as well.
- I have never attended Hogwarts, I have no bias towards any of the houses.
- I am here to assist with grief counseling, conflicts between you and your peers or your professors.
- I am also available for career counseling, and overall future planning.
- I can assist with helping students who come from predominantly muggle households adjust to living in the wizarding world, and help discuss difficult topics with your families.
- I am also available if the staff need to talk as well.

It will take me a bit to get my office organized, but even with boxes everywhere I have an open door policy, and many teas for anyone who comes by. After I get settled in I plan on visiting the common rooms, all of them, I've read they are quite cozy.



So who wants to give me a tour? Studying a map is very different than the real thing! I am very excited to be here. My office is down the hall from the infirmary.

I can't believe the weekend is almost over. Did it even start? I don't remember it starting.

I was ready for the weekend back on Monday. Now I can catch up work and play with the soon to be lion.

Oh no oh no. While writing thank you notes for the lovely birthday wishes I received last week, this thing went crazy and ate them all! Almost took my hand and my homework with it... hopefully a few missing chunks from my essay won't be too much of a problem. They're due tomorrow and I'm far too tired and traumatized to try rewriting everything. I left the blood stains as evidence of my noble struggle, so may the professors take mercy on my soul.

So thanks again for the gifts and cake sharing. I can't believe the school year has already gone by so quickly. And all these new students... it's weird. Well, hello to them!

Rhi, have you seen my scarf? I swear I just had it this morning.

So since apparently some fucking holiday is coming up, I should point out that none of you are five, so perhaps acting your age might be in order.

Happy Coming Out Day! Just a reminder that the gay/straight alliance is holding a meet and greet tonight, in the Great Hall, from 7-8:45pm. Feel free to come on down, bring an instrument if you want to join the jam session, and enjoy being yourself with friends!

At times like these, it's more important then ever to respect and care for one another. Everyone has their own path to travel and no one should be forced out before their ready. I'm happy to say that: I'm here! I'm Queer! And I will be bringing cupcakes!

So, since it's national coming out day and all, I figure I should make a confession. I'm totally into girls.

That is all. Carry on.

Just a reminder that if anyone wants one-on-one quidditch or flying instruction, my office hours are Thursday afternoons. I'd be more than happy to take someone up and then throw shit at them really, really hard. I need to vent some frustration.

Also, someone please remind me every few weeks to write in this thing. I lost a tie to it, and I don't have that many to start with. Ties aren't really my thing.
