I don't know that I've ever been so disappointed in my house before yesterday.

What will you be doing over the holiday?

Personally, I will be working on my tan in the south of France, my every whim catered to by muggles paid handsomely for their services.  I could not think of a better way to spend a holiday.

Do you Can you think of any marriageable classmates? What qualities led you to believe that you or someone else might decide to marry them one day?

Say what you will about the mentality of their house in general, but I think most anyone would be hard pressed to deny that the men of Hufflepuff are very easy on the eyes.  And, given the recent discussion of skinny dipping, I feel confident in saying that yes, lads, we are definitely ready.

Are you afraid that everyone is going to move on and leave you behind? I know I am.

Why must we all suffer because of one Slytherin's mistake?  I do not want Professor Kettleburn reading the letters I send home or inspecting the care packages my parents send me.  It hardly seems fair that we're all made to pay for her transgressions.

What's the most heinous thing someone could do to you? Why?

Dear "Secret Admirer",

You are the most despicable, deplorable, completely disturbed... pathetic excuse for a human being. If you think that your little scare tactics are working, then think again. It takes a lot more than that to scare me. I have seen true evil. You haven't even brushed the surface. There is a special place reserved just for you in hell. May you burn!

Sincerely,

One pissed off Gryffindor

For what it's worth, I love you.

Oh, how romantic!  I wish that I had a beau so fanciful and innovative as Gilderoy Lockhart- truly, doesn't every girl deserve to be treated with such wonderful finesse and pageantry?

I'm sure we all know by now that Valentine's Day is fast approaching.  Whatever our other differences might be, I hope that we can all agree that- at this time of year, especially- the fairer (female) students among us deserve to be shown how much we appreciate them.

So, I propose a project.  I've already spoken to Professor Sprout (though she is the only female privy to these plans), and she has agreed to supply a rose to be sent to every female student at school!  You don't have to only send roses to the girl you might fancy- you could send one to a friend, or a classmate, or even a younger year that you don't know well at all!  The point is just to show them all how wonderful they are.

See Professor Sprout before next Monday to pick someone (or someones) to send roses to- between all of us, I'm sure we can make this a wonderful day for them!

How do you get people to fancy you? Or, what is it about others that make you fancy them? Let's say, for instance, that a person doesn't have a Valentine. How would that person go about sparking someone's interest, in that way, I mean.

Is there anything more tragic- or anything that can make you feel quite so utterly pathetic- than a teenage broken heart?

Valentine's Day is quickly approaching, and I do so love this time of year.  It is so refreshing to see my fellow classmates paired up into such loving couples-- or, if they aren't already, to take advantage of such a time and be bold!  That witty girl in your Potions class?  The bashful boy across the table in Herbology?  Tell them how you feel!  Now is the time for action, my friends.

This is ridiculous.

Say something nice about someone else.  Anonymously or not, I don't care, just something nice.  And if you're not going to say something nice, then kindly bugger off don't even bother.

Is it true?

Those of us who know our Tennyson know that In the Spring a young man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of love.  I do wonder, then, what dear old Alfie would think of Hogwarts' current goings-on...

It should come as no surprise, of course, that some of Hogwarts' men are ahead of the Tennyson curve, with their fancy turning to thoughts of love well in advance of springtime.  Hogwarts' men, though a delightful subject in and of themselves, are not what I wonder about today. 

It seems that a certain Slytherin has taken her fancy somewhere much more disconcerting, somewhere certainly not covered in a Tennyson work- that is to say, she fancies a certain blonde Gryffindor girl. 

Now, it is no secret that there have been whispers of intragender relationships this whole year at Hogwarts.  Indeed, said Gryffindor's last boyfriend left her for another man.  While some might consider it commendable, laudable even, that this Slytherin would show such concern, such consideration in this Gryffindor's obvious time of need, it must be remembered that it is best for all parties involved find their way back to their proper places, and soon.

What's the biggest risk you've ever taken? Was it worth it or do you find yourself regretting the decision often?

I'm very hungry Advertising one's singleness over the journals in the hope of finding a snog or a date: discuss.

It isn't something that I'd ever consider doing, personally.

I miss you with all my heart.

Happy birthday.
