PenPal Project 002 To: Ashley Macnair From: Shannon Riley Date: October 2nd Dear Penpal,
I'm sorry I haven't written you since the last time in a while. I think the proper thing was for me to respond to you, but to be honest I figured that if I could go like two weeks without, I'd do that, but then I sorta forgot. So lest my Head of House track me down, I'm back at it.
I've been letting a lot of things go, to be honest. I can trust you? Well, no. I don't know you. But I'm going to go out on a limb and just write this to you, because you don't know who I am either. Quidditch hasn't been a problem, thankfully. Wait- I shouldn't be giving myself away like that. Or am I just messing with your head?! Sorry- preemptive confusion. Security policy.
I haven't been going out to the woods enough I think is the problem. Things with one of my best friends is off- I can't quite place it. So I haven't been doing enough there. I have a sort of business arrangement I haven't been keeping up with. Mum is doing well, but I do really need to write her. And the stress of being in my final years here is also confusing.
I'm sorry, I shouldn't be using you as my journal. I have a real journal. I have danced in the great hall, too. Big surprise.
