Ok ppl, I am SOOOOOOO sorry that I have not been updating lately, but school started, and the teachers seem to all be ganging up on me, mainly Mr. Elder (ya, that's his real name, LOL) who teaches Geography (Zz Zz Zz Zz Zz). He's MEAN, so is the computer teacher, he says that I need to work on "mi spaling", go figure!

So, I'll do the reviews at the end, cause I noe you want to read this chappie. . . .

Oh yeah, look here to be able to understand this chappie. . . .

The Great Hall was unusually noisy that morning, due to most students yelling to their new-found loves in other houses. Ginny, however wasn't yelling to anyone, or talking for that matter, she was deep in thought about a certain grey eyed Slytherin.

~Why did it have to be him, why not Colin? He's nice, but also my friend, my BEST friend. Well, Draco - wait, he's Draco now!? Where'd that come from?~

"Ginny, are you going to come to class, or sit there all day staring at the Slytherin table?" Colin stood behind her with an all - knowing expression on his face.

"Colin! I'm not staring at the Slytherin table, I was . . . looking at the decorations! Well, are we going to go to class or not?" Ginny picked up her book bag and led a very confused Colin out of the Great Hall. Neither noticed a very cold grey stare follow them out . . . .

"Now class, today we are going to learn a simple, yet complex spell to transform an object into a bird. This will be much harder than when you go the other way, for example, turning a bird into a sneekascope. The bird's mind has a way or confusing even the best wizards and witches, you must remember Albert Birbeetle who transfigured himself . . . ."

~This day couldn't get any worse, first a lecture from McGonagall on some dead guy that made a fool of himself, next Divination with crazy Professor Tralawney, then after lunch, double potions with the Slytherins! Great! Well, at least I'm a year before Malfoy. . . .~

"Miss Weasley! What was Marvin Markaluck's greatest achievement to date?" Ginny snapped out of her thoughts and stared at a very angry Professor McGonagall.

"Umm. . . finding the cure to warts?" She guessed.

"No, Miss Weasley! It was learning how to counter the reactoraite in a bird's mind, and successfully transform it from a pincushion! Ten points from Gryffindor for your ignorance, and detention for you tonight, nine o'clock sharp!" Professor McGonagall shouted.

Ginny's mood did not improve throughout the rest of the day, mainly because Tralawney made another prediction, about her!

"When a fire, upon a head,
Is faced before a flower bed.

When flowerbed eats only rice,
Fire's melt shall be by ice.

And only raven, with red and gold,
Will stop an elder from eating cold.

Her bushy hair shall be a curse,
When it gets caught in his new purse.

So, when you know who I love most,
Meet him by the firebird's post.

There you'll learn a thing or too,
On how to cure the meeble flu."

Ginny walked silently towards the potions classroom, only to be interrupted by Luna Lovegood poking Ginny in the nose.

"What was that for?" Ginny demanded.

"To wish you good luck in potions, because Snape seems to be in a very bad mood." Luna walked away like going around and poking people on the nose was something she did everyday (which she probably did).

~I will never understand her!~
