Hermione's Diary

August 23 - My parents got me a diary for an early birthday present to record my thoughts of my 6th year at Hogwarts, but I've decided to start a few days early. I've been really worried about Harry lately, ever since Sirius died. I've just recently been completely healed from that nasty curse from that Death Eater, Dolohov. I wrote to Harry about this and he wrote back, I think he still blames himself for everything that has happened last June. Oh, my mom wants me to talk on the phone, I wonder who it is - Hermione

August 24 - It was Ron who called yesterday, he wanted to know if I wanted to go get my school supplies at Diagon Ally, with him and Ginny, on the 26nd;. Of course I said yes. Later - Hermione

August 25 - Professor Lupin mailed me today, though he told me to call him Remus or Mooney, he said that Harry's been having bad dreams again lately. So, I used Lupin's owl to send a message to Harry, telling him to practice his Occlumency, and I sent a reply to Lu, err, Mooney. Can you think of what I should wear tomorrow? No, of course you can't answer me, you're a diary, if you were to answer me, I would most likely chuck you at Myrtle and then Ginny or Harry would find you and, whoosh, back to our second year, and I really don't feel like being petrified again! Oh great, now I'm talking to a book, like Ronald says, I like books, but I can't like then that much. Oh, what ever am I going to do with myself? - Hermione

August 26 - Yeah, today's the day I'm going to Diagon Ally with Ron! I'm wearing navy blue pants, a while T-shirt-shirt and a maroon sweater, maybe I should change the sweater, Ron hates maroon. How about violet, yes violet would do wonderful. My hair is the same as it was for the Yule Ball, Ronald said he really liked it like that. Dad says it's time to go, oh I do hope I look alright - Hermione
