The Journal of Dean Thomas



Chapter 4-Thursday



Thursday

Oh, geez. Today has been the most horrible day. We had Divinations class today and that class is always so boring. The homework is awful. I mean you can only make up so many things that could go wrong with your life and your friends' lives. Everyone in Gryffindor hates Divination except for Lavander Brown and Parvarti Patil. We have all given up and hope of figuring out what Professor Trelawney is talking about when she tries to explain Divination. She's just an old fraud. The only good thing about that class is that Ron Weasley and Harry Potter are always saying or doing something funny. Today, Harry told Professor Trelawney that his tea leaves said that he was going to die in the forbidden forest because he was going to be eaten by a hippogryff. And do you know what she said? She said that she was sorry that he would have to die in such a cruel way. I couldn't take it. Seamus and I had trouble trying to hide our laughter. It was funny. But, after that Trelawney just started to lecture about what certain formations of the tea leaves meant. While she was lecturing, I was thinking, who figured out what the formations of the tea leaves meant. Somebody had to figure out what was going to happen to you when your tea leaves were in a row at the bottom of your cup, right? Oh well, there is no use in trying to figure it out.

Anyway, we were sitting in the classroom and Seamus and I were trying to decide if a troll sneaking up to our room and stealing all of our homework was too far fetched for Professor Trelwaney to believe. (Hey, we're starting to run out of ideas.) While we were thinking of ideas, Lavender Brown came up behind us and started listening to our conversation. We thought she was going to tell the professor we were making thinks up, but what she really wanted was for me to set her up with Ron Weasley. Oh yes, that was a really great way for me to forget that nobody likes me and that I'm just the "nice guy." That completely ruined my mood. But, of course I told her that I'd try. Stupid, stupid, stupid, me. Why can't I just say no? What makes me such a loser? I think I'm going to go talk to Neville. Maybe he will be able to make me feel better. I sure hope that I have a better day tomorrow.

SilverWolf-It's great hearing from you again, I hadn't heard your opinion of my new chapters and stuff in a long time. It's great to have you back! Is the next chapter of your fic up yet? I hope so. (Note to my readers go read SilverWolf's story Darkstar. It's awesome and she doesn't get as many reviews as she deserves!)



Gahnem-Oh, no problem. I'm glad that my reviews made you happy. Thanks for reviewing my other journal. I really appreciate your reviews!



Cathy Gurl-You're right, I don't see many Dean fics either. Thanks for reviewing my story!
