To all Upper Classmen - Please refrain from selling 'Lift Passes' to First Years. As veteran students, it is expected you assist in guiding your peers through their formative schooling, acting as shining examples of the Hogwarts motto: Draco dormiens nunquam titillandus.
Twenty house points will be rewarded to the first student able to correctly translate our school's motto. A further thirty to the student best able to articulate its double entendre as applies to this situation.
Lastly, to all First Years - I regret to inform you there are no lifts at Hogwarts, only moving staircases and twisting towers. Should you find yourselves continuing to lose your way, please ask a Prefect or a Professor for directions. Unfortunately, 'I got lost,' will cease to be a valid excuse to tardiness at lessons come 1 October, 2015.
Fondly,
Mr. Boot |

While everyone else was on summer holiday, there were a handful of us who still sat in a classroom (of sorts) to prepare and learn everything we could to get ready for our first mission. So now that everyone is back at school WE'RE FINALLY GOING ON OUR FIRST MISSION!!
And that's all I can actually say, since I don't know when, where, or what. Other than it's "soon lass".
Still...whooooo! Adventure! |

Summer hols are over. Not sure why everyone's acting like that's not the case. If I get one more student who didn't do the readings I assigned, I'm going to have a bloody aneurysm. |

When it comes to matters of the heart, I find myself completely and absolutely lost.
Love is too fickle and too hard. I give up.

He's gone. Draco's gone.
It's strange how I could miss someone so much when I had only known them for half a year. But I feel like there's a piece of me missing.
His boyfriend seems to be missing as well. I can only hope they're together and happy. Or maybe he's gone back to his own time, I dunno.

It's so strange to see so many entries about the first day of school and realize I don't have to be apart of that.
It's even stranger to think that I miss it...just a bit. |

Welcome back, enfants.
A few notes for the new year: Oui, am younger than last year. Haven't taken the Ministry's proper-aging potion yet. May look twenty-one, but I'm still far older than you are. So, while gifts in the form of panties and jock straps will be appreciated, they will be promptly returned via owl.
Alchemy classes are all morning this year, as you well know. Office hours will be directly after, in the afternoons, and if you're making me dinner, you can find me in Faculty No. 18, as always.
And if you're going to fail to bring your home work this year, mes petites terreurs, think up some super creative reasons. While you'll certainly get a zero on the homework, may at least throw you a couple points for creativity. |

Welcome back to another year at Hogwarts!
For those of you with questions about the syllabus for your Potions course (whichever level that may be), please direct your questions to me either after class, during my office hours, or here if you're in desperate need of an answer. As always, I strive to help in any way that I can and to make your education as interesting and painless as possible.
Some of my older students and those of you in my advanced courses may notice a bit of a change in the way some things are taught and handled but fear not. Potions is, as ever, rather unchanging itself. I only strive to make your time in class and with me a bit more enjoyable a lot less tedious.
Anyone wishing to speak with me outside of class is welcome to see me at my office during my hours which are as follows:
Monday-Friday: 2pm-6pm
Saturday: 10am-3pm
Sunday: By Appointment Only
Again, here's wishing you all a wonderful, educational and productive school year! |

I suppose now is as good of a time as any. When classes start tomorrow, everyone was going to find out.
Students of Hogwarts, I will not be teaching Ancient Runes. I will still hold ballet lessons and the ballet club is still active, but runes is not my class to teach. My office will stay where it is and I will be finding a new room for ballet.
Ballet will be held Tuesday and Thursdays after class. If you need me otherwise, please send me an owl and I will reply as soon as I can. |

Old age seems to have left me with some rather curly hair. It's a blasted mess and I'm not very fond of it at all.
That being said, I can't say I'm disappointed with how I've aged. |

In consideration of the aging epidemic I would like to remind all faculty, staff and students of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry that all persons are required to check-in either at the infirmary or couselling office to help ensure your health and safety. As you may or may not be aware, there are currently several infants and youngsters on campus that have yet to be identified, having aged beyond recognition and/or power of speech. Your cooperation checking-in with the appropriate departments will be of great assistance in identifying our youngest afflicted by process of elimination.
Furthermore, should you require guidance coping with this event, either by direct or indirect contact, please note I have extended my office hours temporarily. In the event I am needed beyond those hours, do not hesitate to call upon me either by owl, patronus, house elf or in person.
Lastly, do be cautious of your actions during this time. Dramatic hormonal shifts are often influential in one's behaviour. Remember to respect yourself and your fellows. Where possible, consult a heeler should you consider partaking in any activity previously restricted by age. Such include but are not limited to drinking, smoking or sexual intercourse, as these may affect you differently under such conditions.
Fondly,
Mr. Boot

So happy with my new ink! All my love, thanks and a big hug to Splendid of The Splendid Tattoo Parlor. She does fantastic work! Definitely recommend and plan to return to her in future for more art.

For those of you who haven't yet worked it out. I've been de-aged. I'm still your professor, so bear that in mind, but if you see this younger face running about the halls at least now you know who I am.
This may well be quite a bit of fun. |

Everyone, I'd like to announce that Splendid's Wizarding Tattoo parlor will be holding a grand opening event!
Come the weekend of August 28 till the 30th, there will be a special concert by my dear friend, Stubbby Boardman! There will also be other events going on.
In the meantime, everyone is still free to come by my shop for tattoos. I specialize in muggle and wizarding tattoos and will answer any questions. If you'd like to make an appointment, you can do so with my or with Capable.
