It's 7th Year and It's Crazy
Chapter 5
September 29
Dear Diary,
Phew, it's been a whirlwind of confusion these past few weeks. I have accomplished 9 out of the 10 things on my To Do List, neglecting only being nice to the witch (no pun intended), Christie. She was very nasty to me after she learned that Harry and I were "with" each other. I'm actually not all that sure that we are "with" each other, but based upon the snogging we've been doing, I cannot imagine it otherwise. When I told Ron, he couldn't have been happier, same with most of everyone else. I cannot possibly list everyone who came up to me and told me how happy they were. Unfortunately, I cannot list every girl who came up to me and told me to bugger off of Harry. I merely responded that if they wished, I could get a picture of his room, something they will never see. Needless to say, after that, they left me to myself. Harry Potter's arse's fanclub has gone from, "WE LOVE HARRY AND HIS BUM!!!!" to, "WE HATE HERMIONE! DIE BITCH!" quite a nice change, don't you think? I got quite a bit of hate mail, mostly long, bitchy letters about how I wasn't good enough for Harry. I graciously responded to them through the Hogwart's Weekly politely telling them to FUCK OFF!
The makeover Parvati and Lavender gave me has made me "desirable" in most of Hogwart's male population. The two girls taught me how to look my best. Every morning, I get up, shower, apply some light makeup, brush my hair out, and get dressed in one of my newly tailored uniforms. Harry seemed especially pleased with my new look, and when he's happy, I'm happy.
I have rounded up an invitation to the party. Here it is:
HALLOWEEN PARTY
COME COUPLES 6th YEAR UP, COME ALL
WHEN: HALLOWEEN
WHERE: THE ROOM OF REQUIREMENT
WEAR A COSTUME.
Party thrown by Dawn Atkinson, 7th year Hufflepuff.
Ginny and I went shopping for costumes at GladRags, a loverly clothing store. Ginny's back with Draco, so they're naturally going together; he as Prince Ken, and she as Barbie. Two years ago, if someone told me that Malfoy was going to dress up as Ken, I would've gone spare, and told them to get their head looked at. Harry's going as a vampire and I think I'm going to go as a princess. We found Ginny a cute pink (what else for Barbie?) raw silk halter top, and a black mini skirt, as well as some blue trousers, and crown for Draco. Harry's costume was easily sorted out, but we couldn't find anything for me except a crystal-studded tiara, which was bought on the spot. Here I am, only a month away from my big night, with nothing to wear. Absolutely great.
One thing that actually is great is the fact that Harry and I have been named, "Hogwarts Best" Not everyone is as chuffed as we are about this, especially some of those absolutely horrid 6th years. I recently learned of a wizard adage, "If your head is stuffed up the ass of a dragon, don't move, or you'll get burned." That's at least my version of it. Cute, huh? I think it means that if you're in trouble, just ignore everything otherwise it'll get worse. Logical.
I find it sick how all the girls have taken to being coy and batting their eyelashes. Thank God I have a private bath, I heard it took Lucy Gaddsworth, 40 minutes to get a decent shower. The female population is primping and preening, for who?? Well, besides Harry, you'll never guess. Give up??? Neville!
Okay, slow down, breathe easy, big guy. Neville has become quite the stud, but unfortunately, he's spoken for, as you know. Lauren Kingsley, a sweet girl, with bright eyes and a hundred watt smile, has been seen on several occasions with Neville; last time…in Madame Pudifoot'[Author ID1: at Tue Dec 21 12:55:00 2004 ]s. Better luck next time girls.
On the male to female side, quite a bit of attention has been paid to Caroline Marvin, a 6th year Slytherin. She's an ice queen, so good luck to the men with that one. I'm remembering this super amusing story. Draco and Caroline were declared the Ice Regents for a dance we had in 6th year. Draco had gone to the dance with Ginny, and Ginny was fuming that some blonde bimbo was on the arm of her sweetheart. So it was time for the regents to have the dance of honor, and the song came on, and they were twirling about, and they danced underneath a large silver snowflake. Suddenly, the snowflake opened, and dumped litres of vanilla ice cream all over Caroline's dark red dress. Along with the ice cream came a singing snowflake. It said,
"To the Ice Cream, not the Ice Queen, Hope you had a grand time,
Leave my Draco dum dee dum dum,
Alone, or else,
You'll find a frog in place of your well combed hair."
It sang this in a very loud helter skelter manner for all to hear, and a single green velvet ribbon was handed to the ice-creamed queen, the very ribbon that Ginny had been wearing. I swear the Ice Cream Queen turned a violent shade of red, rivaled only by her dress.
Good times. I swear that I'll tell you more stories next time, but for now that's all. I'm obsessed with these little Wizarding sayings I'm finding, so here's a few, 10 to be exact. More later.
Love,
Hermione Granger
Head Girl
Potter's Girl
(and there's nothing you ninnies can do about it. :-P)
The sayings promised above:
Never tickle a sleeping dragon.
If your head is stuffed up the ass of a dragon, don't move, or you'll get burned.
Look at the potion flask as if it's half full.
Cast every spell as if it's your last, it very well could be.
Look to your right side for your enemy.
The wizard that lieth not in your way need not be attacked.
Don't bend over in your new dress robes.
There are those who can do magic, and then there are those who can do magic well, strive to be the latter.
Even Mrs. Skower's All-Purpose Magical Mess Remover cannot wash away the stain of time.
Better no wand at all than a broken one.
Author's Note:
I'm trying to get back into this story, so this isn't my best. Getting back into the swing of things is hard. Read and Review like always.
