Chapter Five: Depression Nerveuse et Decouverte

I just got a letter from Lily's uncles, Fred and George Weasley. I test out pranks and stuff for their shop. In return, they give me information about Hogwarts' secret tunnels and how to successfully pull off certain pranks. They even gave me a copy of the Marauders' Map once, which is useful, even f it only shows Hogwarts and not people. It seems that they've found something new though.
Somehow, they think that they missed a tunnel while they were at Hogwarts. It seems that they heard (or read- since I never ask for their sources, I'm not too sure) about a tunnel somewhere by the Slytherin dorms. They didn't say which portrait it was hidden behind, only that it's one that goes by unnoticed a lot. Fred and George also didn't tell me if it uses a password or if it just opens by knocking or summat, like the Kitchen portrait does. I wish they would give me their sources sometimes too!
And I wish they wouldn't wake me up at bloody 8:30 in the morning on a Saturday! It's too early to be awake! Everyone else it still sleeping…why can't I?
I wonder if it's a Hogsmeade weekend? I hope so. That means I could sneak off to the Forbidden Forest (which isn't exactly as forbidden as one is lead to think). Who knows? Maybe the werewolf will be there. Like me and Bray always say, one feels best amongst his or her own.
Now, I gotta go wake up Bray. I wonder…pillows, spell, or water today?

Bray is trying to kill me! I used the water method to get her up, and now she's trying to kill me with a pair of socks! Help! I'm too young to die!

Bray and Lily keep getting on me about writing all the time. That, or reading. And then they get on me for not writing my story! How crazy is that now? Maybe they meant writing in this journal. I hope that's what they meant. Otherwise I'd be worried about their mental states…
Not that Lily has much room to talk. She's always writing and never doing her class work. And then she's all like, "Woe is me! Mum would kill me if she knew how bad I was doing in class!" It drives me nuts. Besides, doesn't she know that all that has to be sent is an owl? Anyway, if she's so worried, she should just do the class work and then write if she's so worried about her parents blowing up on her when hey find out (cause they will find out). It's not like she's on a deadline for writing. Though, I must say, I do enjoy reading what she writes.
And Bray. My writing and reading is lie her singing. She is always singing. It sounds good, but sometimes, I just want a little peace and quiet! But I wish I could sing like her. It's not fair!
Okay, so I don't mean it the way it sounds. I'm just frustrated, I guess. Some classes are interesting, but some aren't. Some I should be sleeping through. And people are always telling me to stop reading, or quit writing to come and help them, when it turns out they don't really need my help in the first place. And it's annoying! And I haven't had anyone to yell at in forever. And I've got all this built up anger, because of course, I can't yell at my professors, and they're making me mad because they start to nag like Mum and Da, and I couldn't yell that them either. And, nobody will leave me alone when I need alone time! And I need some alone time every now and then. I've been too afraid to take my nightly walks!
And what if my grades are really bad? Can they hold a seventh year back or not let him or her take his or her N.E.W.T.s if they weren't doing well in class? I mean, most teachers don't even care for me. They could decide I'm not doing well purely because I don't always make it to class (jus because it's boring anyway!). Usually, lately at least, it's because I'm helping someone!
Oh great, I'm having a nervous breakdown in the idle of class….maybe no one will notice that I'm starting to hyperventilate…

Author's Note: Okay, I'm not sure if I want to continue this story or not. I want you to read what I have typed up for this chapter, let me know how you like it. If you think I should go on, I'll try and write some chapters over my next week of break. If you don't, I won't be offended, I promise.
Leave me a review, let me know what you thought. Like it- I'll type up the rest of this chapter (it's written, not yet typed) and post. If not, I'll probably revise this chapter a bit, and put in an ending note. Let me know!
