Dear Diary,
Ugh...today I had Care of Magical Creatures (still as dangerous, as always) and Potions.
Care of Magical Creatures actually wasnÕt dangerous today, surprisingly. All Hagid did was to review us on the Thestrals. He asked us questions about them, and Natalie and Hermione answered all of them.
In potions, Snape the lousy greasy-haired git had us brew a potion that was EXTREMELY difficult. It was called the Hearing Draught. When brewed properly, it makes the drinker deaf for a total of 3 hours (I certainly hope no one has me drink it with out my knowlege, that would be horrible). To make the potion, you need 3 newt tails, 1 spider (dead of course), 6 lacewings, and a teaspoon of armadillo bile. And then there was the stirring and everything. It got quite confusing.
Natalie was telling Ron about her school back in the states, which I didnÕt listen to, because she had already told me. I was doing fine with my potion, you know, I had added the newt tails and the spider, and then I see SnapeÕs shadow over standing over me (I could even smell the grease in his hair, and believe me, it was DISCUSTING).
ÒPotter,Ó Snape sneered, ÒWhat on earth are you doing?Ó Natalie and Ron stopped talking to listen (so did the rest of the class).
ÒWhat does it look like IÕm doing?Ó I replied.
ÒIt looks, Potter, as though you havenÕt followed the directions.Ó Snapes voiced lowered dangerously.
ÒWhat do mean it looks as though I havenÕt followed the directions? IÕm following them perfectly, I just havenÕt finished brewing the potion, you ugly, greasy-haired, son of a--Ó Ron laughed, and Natalie opened her mouth in surprise.
ÒSILENCE!Ó
Ron fell silent, but I, of course, didnÕt listen, but plowed right on. ÒThe only reason you stopped to ÔcritisizeÕ my obviously not-yet-finished potion, is because you were just looking for an excuse to dock points!Ó
Snape didnÕt say anything, but just stood there glariong at me, and headed back to the fron of the class.
Finally, when samples of the potions had been put in flasks, the bell rang. Luckily. As I was walking out of the classroom towards Care of Magical Creatures, I told snape exactly what I thought of him.
ÒSnivellus, you are an ugly, greasy-haired, long nosed, son-of-a-b****, who, as a teacher, is very incompetent.Ó And with that, I left the classroom.
Ron and Natalie ran to catch up with me, and when they did, they were both laughing.
ÒHarry, mate, that was incredible!Ó Ron said, with obvious delight as he clapped his hand on my back, still laughing hysterically.
ÒYeah, Harry, that was brilliant!Ó said Natalie, as she kissed me on the cheek.
ÒWell, IÕm glad you like it. IÕm honestly surprised I didnÕt get a detention.Ó And with that, we headed towards the Great Hall for lunch.
