Dear Diary,

You will never guess what happened today in Black Magic class, diary!

You remember the poem I was talking about yesterday, right? The Jabberwocky? Luke stood up on his desk and started reciting the poem in the middle of class! Boy was Professor Potsdam really confused when that happened! You should have seen the look on her face, diary! She was looking at Luke like he sprouted a second head in the middle of class! When he kept going, Professor just laughed and helped him get down the desk. She took that situation as an opportunity to tell us that the classes shouldn't be interrupted by the Initiation and that if it was anyone else Luke would have been put in detention for interrupting class. The lucky guy only ended up having to stay behind to finish the poem for Professor Potsdam's entertainment instead. I bet if he'd done that to Professor Grabiner he'd have ended up in detention faster than you can cast a spell!

Luke ended up being the laughingstock of the class today. Giggles and guffaws filled the air as he recited the poem, and he'd ended up on the other side of some ribbing by the other boys in class. I couldn't resist laughing either, it was just too funny not to. If nothing else, it certainly made for an interesting class!

I was thinking so much about what happened that I hadn't been able to concentrate on the lessons today, and failed to learn anything. *sight* That'll teach me, I suppose. And here I was, looking forward to learning new useful spells in class today. Oh well.

Other than that, today was a relatively normal day, for Iris Academy anyway. Nothing else to report. Well, maybe tomorrow something might happen.

Good night diary.
