A/N: Hey! This is our companion to It's Not Easy Being Green, which is an excellent read, if we do say so ourselves, and you should read it, even though you really don't have to if you want to read this. That was a really long sentence. Okay, warning: There is an original character who will be paired with Harry. We did our best, really we did. But she may be Mary-Sueish. Sorry! We tried! Okay, just tell us if you think she's really bad. Kay? Alright then, moving on.
Disclaimer: We didn't make up Draco Malfoy or Harry Potter. Ironically, we did make up every other person who appears in this chapter. There will be less OC's eventually though. Don't give up on us!
Dear… Hmm… how about Journal? No… okay, I'll think about this
It's funny. Typical girls pass this phase by the age of twelve. Not me! Guess I'm a little slow. But my brother, Jerry gave this to me when I first started Hogwarts and now seeing as that was six years ago, I thought I should write something in it. Or you, whatever.
I'll give you the background, I guess. My name is Elizabeth Pritchard, Liz for short. I'm in my 6th year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, which means I'm sixteen. I am a Slytherin and muggleborn (my parents aren't wizards). That used to cause a bit of a problem, but most people are over it.
So, yeah, those basics were boring. I could tell you what I look like, but I already know, so I don't feel like writing it. I think I'll talk about some of my feelings. You know, sort out my thoughts.
It's the first day of school and everything has already gone to hell. Serena, five days after I got that owl from Tony, started making out with him. I don't care that much. Well, maybe a little. Alright, that skanky blond whore stole my boyfriend! Skanky whore! She's been my roommate for five years and she just… ARG!!!!!!! That whore. I do realize that I've said whore three times but I don't care.
Yeah, so, I'll get over it. Just because I'm ugly, stupid, klutzy and short, doesn't mean I'm not attractive, right?
No answers? Guess that makes sense as this is a piece of paper.
Camille just came in ranting about the new DADA teacher, who is, apparently, so hot! Well, she thinks Professor Malfoy is hot too, as well as half the boys in the school. And most of them not the teachers (I think), like her too. Not fair. You know, she's probably out in the common room, living it up while I'm sitting on my bed writing in a diary.
Hey, here's what I'll do. I'll make fun of my roommates behind their backs! Yes, I'll write about it in here. Right, this will be fun.
First is Serena. I'm sure you've heard of the type. Well, maybe not, you are a book. But the point is she's blonde, tall, and way to curvy for her own good. But she's an idiot. Complete airhead. She almost failed Divination last year, for Christ sakes! I had to tutor her in it (as it's one of the few subjects I can pass easily). And that still didn't keep her from stealing Tony from me. Yeah, I ranted about that already.
Then there's Camille. Oh, where to begin? Chestnut hair, chestnut eyes, golden skin, and a glistening personality (she always describes herself using those exact same words). Once she told me my brothers were hot. I mean, gross. You don't tell their sister that. And I secretly believe she's a slut. I've heard too many pieces of information that all seem to lead to this conclusion. Slut.
Third is Aimee. I know, why can't she spell her name like a normal person? But, hey. Stuck in the fourth grade, but I love her just the same. She helps me with school (which sucks!) and we talk about guys. Even though those conversations are a bit short on her end. But she's okay. She's Korean so she looks like a Korean. Black hair, dark brown eyes, and she's got these glasses. Yes, not all Koreans have glasses, but Aimee does.
Lastly, Laqueta. The quiet one. I've lived with her for five years and I'm not sure she's ever said a whole sentence to me. Well, no. She did say, "Have you seen my Transfiguration book?" once. Snob. Total snob. I think she hates me. Seriously.
That's all for now. I need to sleep. And Serena is coming; I can hear her in the hallway. Time for the silent treatment. Night… er… book?
A/N: How was it? Any complaints so far? Will we get a bitchy review about how this isn't a Draco/Ginny so it shouldn't be posted here? We'll tell you in the next installment!
