I'm glad you like the names. Or letters. You know what I mean.
Is that all you get out of school though? Feel productive and successful? I don't mean to sound like I'm knocking it, I'm just trying to understand. [Scratched out words] I just mean, sometimes I wonder which is more important. Meeting people's expectations, or doing what you really want to do, you know? And sometimes I'm not sure if what I do is just what people expect or what I want to. If that makes sense.
Sorry. That's awfully deep for a letter to a near stranger.
Anyway. To actually answer YOUR question. I think it's the changes, and because everyone just seems more tense. We already have people shouting in the Great Hall, for instance. That was a spectacle. [Scratched out words] Plus, we're on the cusp of being Seventh Years, which is the cusp of being OUT. Which is exciting, definitely. But also frightening.
