Disclaimer - I still don't own Harry Potter or any of the characters involved - I just own a Harry DVD, the computer game and 4 well thumbed books!

Thank you for your lovely reviews so far, you keep me writing!

Oh great. A chance to expose my slimy Slytherin soul to the world. Just what I need right now. Can you people not see that I'm trying to sort my life out here? Ha! That'll surprise you. Draco Malfoy actually thinking about his future in a questioning way. You (yes you, you foul little mudblood sniggering as you read this) thought I'd got it made didn't you?! Well? You thought I'd sit here and get a good little education before sauntering back to the Malfoy manor and joining my dad on the dark side.

Well. I'm not.

At least I think I'm not. You see, I've been doing some thinking (wipe that smirk off your face Weasley/Potter/Granger), and I've figured out that if dad's mate Voldy can't even kill a skinny, stupid, scar faced 15 year old (or 11 year old, or, oh heck why not, a baby for God's sake) then how the f**k is he gonna do this whole world domination thing my dad's so intent on? So... and here's the big revelation... I'm going to tell my father where to stick his Voldy ideas and work for Dumbledore. But! And this is a very big 'but'. Only until I get powerful enough to take over the world myself - only without the killing because I don' really like the sight of blood (and dead bodies/people freak me out.

I hate this exercise, spilling my soul to the world - and writing the truth. But these journals have all had honesty charms placed on them so we can't lie (Cheers Flitwick - last time I pay any attention in Charms). Otherwise do you really think I'd write this s**t? I can just hear my reputation blowing away with the wind.

God I'm f**cked up! Oh well, my life's not all bad - I still have my brains, and I'm still the most beautiful thing Hogwarts has ever seen. Arrgghhh!!! There I go again. Damn my father for making me so bloody arrogant and obnoxious (although I did inherit his looks). Damn, damn, damn. Life would be so much simpler if I was in a different house, even though I would have been long dead at the hands of my father by now, then I wouldn't have evil expectations to live up to...... and I can't disappoint the masses - so...... evil I am. All because I'm a Malfoy in Slytherin house. I blame the parents. For everything. Ever.

Now if you'll excuse me I think I'll just go curl up and die somewhere. Or...... I could go and find me the famous Potter and his mudblood and mudblood loving friends. They always rise to the bait - it's such fun! I'll just mention pretty boy Diggory and watch the sparks fly.......
