History of Magic is the most boring subject ever. I really mean it. I fell asleep again today, Colin, who was sitting next to me, took pictures of me sleeping. Ugh, can he ever stop with the picture taking? It is so annoying!
Professor Snape seemed, if possible, kinder. I can't believe I'm saying (writing) this. He didn't take any points off from Gryffindor nor did he bully Colin when his potion turned green when it was supposed to be yellow. He just sat behind his desk, looking at the ceiling. I wonder if it has anything to do with the Order?
The new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher is Professor Lupin again. I'm glad he's back. Nobody, except the Slytherins of course (the slimeballs) cares if he's a werewolf. I don't either. Harry certainly seems glad Lupin is back. I saw them talking in the corridor between my Muggle Studies and Ancient Runes class.
I miss the Burrow already. It's really weird, actually, when I'm here I miss the Burrow, and when I'm at the Burrow I miss Hogwarts. Mum sent me a letter today. "Oh Ginny, I hope you're doing well," and "We all miss you here". And I was so embarrassed when I opened the package she sent me. I thought it was one of my school robes, or something, because it was all lumpy. So I decided it wouldn't be bad if I opened it at the table. Wrong! My blanket (which, I might add, is very torn up and old looking, as I've had it since I was, eum, born?) came out of the package. I must have been absolutely tomato-red! And what was worse is that Harry was sitting across from me. I don't really recall what happened after that...I think I grabbed my bag and my blanket and ran for it. Could my first day back at school be any better? Let's list all the things that went wrong today.
1) I woke up a little too late. My roommates, I think their names are Juliet, Lori, and Anne, didn't even bother waking me up. I think I should at least try and ask them if I ever sleep late again that they wake me up...
2) When I saw Harry I put my elbow in my scrambled eggs. I can't believe I'm in this fase again! What did I do the last time I had this...put my elbow in the butter dish? Argghh..
3) My blanket made it's wonderful entrance.
4) I tripped in the middle of the corridor and held everybody up.
5) I fell asleep in History of Magic and Colin made pictures of me snoring. (I think he'll use it as blackmail material) (...hmm maybe there's still hope, he probably doesn't know what blackmail is) (If everything goes wrong, Malfoy will get hold of those pictures and show them to everybody...even Harry...)
6) I was lost in thought and I added my Potions notes to my potion, which then started smoking dangerously. (luckily Snape wasn't paying attention, otherwise I would have gotten detention)
7) ...probably something else that I can't remember.
From this list, I have made my tomorrow resolutions:
Wake up early,
not put any body part into any substance when I see Harry,
not open anything at the table,
not trip,
not fall asleep in class,
pay attention.
And ..oh yes, the most important one:
Show Harry that I'm not just Ron's little sister.
