Father's definately going to hear about this. The new Muggle Studies teacher, Professor LeFaye, (the other teacher retired at the end of last term and they have a female teacher working for them now) is taking us on a field trip to Muggle London this weekend. We have to wear Muggle clothing and trade our money for Muggle notes. What a waste of time? Thank Merlin I've been paired with Blaise Zambini, instead of Hermione Granger. Like I said yesterday: one more minute in the library, they'll be sending me to St. Mungo's.

Blaise came down with Himalayan Beaver Pox and is quarantined in the Hospital wing for two weeks. They haven't told me who my new partner is, just that they'll figure it out and tell me the next time my Muggle Studies class meets. Oh well, on with different news. Another hour in the library with Hermione Granger. Might as well send me to St. Mungo's now, because my head started spinning when she got there. I went up to Madame Pomfrey, but it was feeling better enough that she wouldn't give me a Headache Cure. For Merlin's sake, Malfoy! If this keeps up, Father's probably going to hear about it.

Might as well send me to St. Mungo's now. Due to the uneven numbers of Slytheryins compared to the numbers of Gryfindors, I'm paired up with Hermione Granger again. Potty got special permission from Dumbledore to practice Quidditch. My owl from Father came. I'll just stick it in here.
Draco,
I do not agree with this new Muggle Studies thing as much as you do, but suffer through it. They made Muggle Studies mandatory when I was in your year, but they ended it after I had left the school for a considerable amount of years. You will spend the weekend there, as we must keep up appearances with Dumbledore.
Father
(Mother sends her love.)

Another study hour with Hermione Granger. Another hour of Hermione reciting the diffferences between female and male Veela. That werewolf's got us all on tight strings on this assignment. Dumbledore told the entire Great Hall at dinner today that the 5th year Muggle Studies class gets Friday off. "A three-day weekend with our Muggle comrades" he calls it. Father heard about that one, you can be assured. Mother owled me some Muggle pound notes, as they are called. I hope three hundred pounds is enough to last three days.

Our parents had to send money for Muggle suitcases as well. Father wasn't pleased, and is going to have a talk with the school governors next month. Hermione Granger and I were assigned to adjoining rooms at an inn in Diagon Alley. As long as we're gone together for at least five hours each day, we get credit for the class. It could be worse, I guess. We're on strict orders from Dumbledore that we can't use our wands. But he didn't say anything about Zonko's products...

Saturday, 31st January, 5th year, Hogwarts
Hermione went off with one of the Gryfindor Prefects, Lavender Brown, for high tea, so I'm off to 'absorb Muggle culture'. I stopped by a Muggle shop and purchased a piece of smooth plastic from a music shop, as they called it. The overly-energetic girl at the counter assured me that The Calling was the best band ever, whatever that means. Well, that's what it says on the plastic, so to each his own, I guess. Now I wonder what a Camino Palmero is?I asked Hermione about the plastic I purchased. She made this big show of opening it, ripping Cellophane, as she called it, off, opening it up, and revealing a blue round disk. She called it a CD, whatever that means. She was all happy when she saw it, saying something about having the exact same one at home, or something. Now she's asking me for a CD player and batteries. What in Merlin's sake is that? Luckily Hermione showed me where to get them. She showed me how to insert these round metal things into the back of a hunk of plastic not much bigger than that CD thing. She put something called 'headphones' into it, and added the thing called a CD that I had bought earlier. She messed around with it for a minute and told me to listen to a certain song she called "Unstoppable". I think I'll write the lyrics (I think that's the term) here. It wasn't all that vulgar.
Come and lay right on my bed, sit and drink some wine
I'll try not to make you cry
And if you get inside my head, then you'd understand
Then you'd understand me
Why I've felt so alone, why I kept myself from love
And you became my favorite drug
So let me take you right now and swallow you down
I need you inside
If we had this night together
If we had a moment to ourselves
If we had this night together, then we'd be unstoppable
Do you think that this is right, or is it really wrong
I know that this is what we've been wantin'
And all this sickness in my soul, it fills up to my throat
It fills up 'till my heart is breaking
(something called a chorus?)
Now, we can both learn somehow
You'll see it's all we have
Love, it keeps us together
And I need love
When I wake up without you, knowing you're not there
I'm only feelin' half as good
Well I'm gonna find a way
To wrap you in my arms, you make me feel alive
(that chorus thingy again)

Hermione took me back to that Muggle music store today before we left. She made me buy something called a CD single. It works about the same way as a regular CD she assured me. And something else called a DVD single, saying not to mess with the other side, whatever that meant. She also picked out a Muggle T-shirt, a Muggle videotape, and a Muggle poster, all having to do with The Calling. I'm beggining to think Hermione fancies this Alex Band person she's always rambling on about.
