Today we are going to be reading Hermione's diary. Oh course, she doesn't know this, so please be kind enough to NOT TELL HER! If anyone from Hogwarts find out about our little scam of stealing the students' diaries, this operation will be canceled, and THEN WE DON'T GET TO SEE HOW HARRY AND HIS FRIENDS (AND ENEMIES) LIVE THEIR LIVES! So please don't say a word! So please don't say a word! And now on to Hermione's diary.

Dear Journal,
Keeping a journal is a new concept for me. And a weird one. I am far to busy with studying to write what happens to me every day. But today I woke up in the hospital wing and Harry gave me a diary to write things down in. To me, diaries are girly and Lavenderish. They are everything I don't want to be. I would rather be reading Hogwarts; A History than putting on makeup and doing my hair. I'm a book-worm and like it that way. I guess if I ever want George to notice I should become more like Parvati and Lavender, but I really don't like that giggling gossip deal. I would rather George like me for me, not for being like all the other girls. But back to why Harry gave me a diary and why I'm in the hospital wing. Draco Malfoy trapped me in a second floor corridor while I was on my way to the library two days ago. He said something about making sure I never date Neville and than took out his wand and put a curse on me. It broke my arm and turned my skin scaly, like a fish. Then he told me that no one would ever care for me now and ran off. That stupid git! If I could curse him right now, I would. Ron, who has been becoming friends with Draco lately, got over Harry flirting with Ginny, and the two of them went after Malfoy. Not with their wands, but with their fists. They beat him up pretty good before a teacher came along. Since he cursed me, Harry and Ron were not punished. I almost feel bad for Malfoy, but after what he did to me, I don't feel bad at all. My arm was fixed, and the scales are slowly fading back into my skin. Why would he do that to me? I know he hates me, but what does he care if others care about me or not. And what was the deal with Neville dating me? I am so confused. Neville did come in to see me and gave me some wilted flowers. He said he felt terrible about what happened to me. Almost as if it was his fault. It is all very strange. I have a feeling that Neville likes me. I'm really hoping I'm wrong. I'd feel awful to turn him down, but I like George, not him. I really want to find out if George feels the same way. I think I will ask George if he likes me. Now that I know Lee likes Angelina, and George doesn't, things are much easier. George and Fred have visited me once, but George has visited me by himself twice, so maybe he does like me. It can't hurt to ask, right? I'm starting to think that Harry was on to something when he gave me this diary. I like the idea of having something to go to when I have problems. You don't have to worry about a diary telling anyone your secrets.
