October 17th, Friday. Number 25 – 'Jingle Bells'

Wow. Jingle bells are so annoying. And when I though this, I remembered Snape. Ok, so annoying and Snape just kind of go together now. Some how, George and Fred got their hands on little jingle bells. They rang them for hours through out the whole common room. I had a huge headache by the time I decided to go to bed last night.

But then, while I lied in bed, I thought about them and how great they would be with Snape.

So I went back down stairs and asked Fred And George if I could borrow there jingle Bells. Of course they said 'yes.'

So then I went back up stairs and got all the yarn I could find and tied the bells to my outfit for the next day. Lucky me, I have potions first thing in the morning, when Snape is already irritated.

I guess he's not a morning person.

I walked into class, my whole body rings loudly. Snape, who was sitting at his desk, deeply absorbed into something, shot his head up to see what all the noise was. I walked to my desk and sat down.

But of course I wasn't comfortable, so I had to change positions. And my bells rang loudly.

I swear Snape's eye was twitching.

I raised my hand, and without being called on I started talking.

"Professor Snape, I know you didn't like my orange clothes Wednesday. So I put on the Christmas bells on my clothes, so now you can't lose me for sure."

I smiled brightly at him.

He grumbled something under his breath and got up to teach the class. I obviously wasn't being loud enough so I shifted around in my seat. He looked at me from the front of the classroom.

But then he ignored me and went back to lecturing.

So I shifted around in my seat just a little more.

He again looked at me. And then he walked to me. I waved at him, as he got close. The bells on my sleeve jingled and rang throughout the classroom.

He stopped in front of my desk and glared down at me. I looked at him and kind of wiggled in my seat. Making more noise. I guess he had nothing to say. He was obviously very irritated and didn't feel like yelling at anyone. Very unusual.
