The rest of the break passed quickly, and before I knew it, we were back into the daily routine of Hogwarts. It was a little weird at first, as some people asked me what happened to me over break, was I really abducted by Death Eaters, was I tortured, things like that. They stopped, though, after I started taking points for it. Being Head Girl can pay off.

Harry and Ginny got together, big surprise. I'm happy for them. Ginny's fancied him for years, and now that they're together, Harry is a lot less gloomy. It does get rather annoying watching them snog in the common room, but if they want to swap their saliva thenthat's their business, not mine.

Ron and Lavender got together as well. I have no idea what she could possibly see in him, but she and Parvati giggle together in the dorm at night, with Lavender recounting everything she could remember Ron saying to her that day and numbering all the times they've kissed. Honestly, those are things I wish she would keep to herself, as they're also part of Ron's private life (but mostly because I don't want to know), but then he was probably doing the same thing in the boys' dorm.

I've gotten cursed a few times in the hallway, always by Slytherins. Usually a group of them is standing together, so I can't pin it on one person, but I have suspicions that it's Malfoy or Pansy Parkinson, or maybe even both. It's rather annoying, especially since I could swear they were trying to kill me a few times, like when I was hit with a Jelly-Legs Jinx while walking down a staircase. Luckily, a couple of fifth year Hufflepuffs caught me before I spilled my brains across the floor. I've been thinking of ways to get them back, but so far, no good plans have come to mind.

I actually feel rather bad for Pansy. I know she's mean and probably brought this upon herself, but she treats Malfoy like a god and he treats her like trash. She's still a bitch to me, and everyone else, really, but it's sad to see something like that.

Really, life has been going pretty well. Attacks by Death Eaters have been becoming more frequent and bloody, the Ministry was going mad (as if it wasn't already), and Dumbledore looks more and more worn and old every day, which worries me, but when I sit by the fire in the common room doing homework things felt completely normal. Well, as normal as things can get in the Wizarding World with the people I associate with.

Oh, yes, there's just that one little issue I've been having. For some reason I think I might possibly, however unlikely it may be, have a tiny crush on Snape. I can't get him out of my head. I don't think he's handsome or anything, I don't want to have any kind of...intimate relationship with him, and I definitely don't believe he doesn't have faults. He has many. In fact, he has much more than I ever thought possible for one human being to have. He's mean and nasty and cruel and a complete and total git who needs to wash his hair and brush his teeth.

But at the same time, I find myself strangely attracted to him. It's nothing huge, I don't stare at him during class or try to get detention with him, but sometimes I'll find myself glancing at him during meals, or thinking about him when I'm supposed to be reading. It's quite odd, really. I suppose it must be one of those weird psychological things where he was the only one treating me no differently than usual during my fit of depression and was somewhat nice, in a way, when he listened to me in the middle of the night, so my brain has decided to like him.

Not really how I had planned to spend my final year at Hogwarts, but what can I do, right? Obliviate myself? That actually doesn't sound like such a bad idea...

Don't worry. I'm not serious. I'd lose too much information I've learned this year if I did that.
