We had our first test today in Psychology and I got a 30/30 on it! ~~I had to ask if that was good or not.~~ I'm very excited about it. The rest of my classes are going well and my first paper in my creative writing class is due soon. I'm not too concerned about it since I've gotten good feedback on the page I had rewritten from a passage from The Great Gatsby that was one of the exercises assigned.

Did anyone else have an interesting yet embarrassing experience with opening up the door to their fridge and there was someone else? I went to go get a jar of gherkins and instead of the contents of my fridge, there was someone making use of the loo! I very quickly closed the door, I can tell you that.

So fellow refugees, what else has been going on in your lives? Read any good books lately, seen anything interesting out on the street, eaten any food that's noteworthy? I've been out a boat, on a jet-ski, and a long car ride.

If the Secretary of Education says it sounds about right, then I'm good with it!

I'll have to give Jane Grey's book another try then when reading for school isn't such a high demand. I can understand an author wanting to put their own twist on things, but when there's such an abundance of historical documents out there why would you not be accurate historically? What's the Tudor Court series?

That is correct. The opposite of a Muggleborn.

I don't think I'll learn what all the references are, either! There's so many and so much. Free books are good!

I believe if you learn then it doesn't matter how you do it.

I understand that. I hope you do enjoy it when you get the chance to try again. I believe it's The Other Boleyn Girl, The Queen's Fool, The Virgin's Lover & The Boleyn Inheritance though there might be more in the series.

I thought so. It is fascinating how all of that works though. Has it ever been linked to genetics?

True but we'll make do as best as we can. Exactly, where did you manage to get your hands on it?

I'm going to write this on a piece of paper and stick it in my bag for inspiration.

Noted!

To be truthful, I don't know? That might be studied in the Department of Mysteries, but the Unspeakables are very quiet about goes on in their department.

It's that or flounder where we are. A person I met in an Internet chat room. 'Bossypants' is one of those electronic books.

	That sounds like a good idea. Understandable, I suppose it is just one of those things. Though I am somewhat surprised that more people haven't looked into it but given the prejudice in your world perhaps not.... Aah, I admit I haven't given those a try they just don't seem the same as an actual book. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

It is written down, in a pocket in my bag.

All the elitist, snobby Purebloods who believe that Muggles are mud would probably suffer from a very large shock if that were to be the case. Might be fun watching a few of them.

I do have to admit to a preference over a paper bound book than an electronic one, but I can see the drawer for those who love reading and can't have an undetectable enlargement charm on their bag.

	A perfect place for it. We can always imagine it though. (Reply to this) (Parent)
