25th October- Last day of Flobbies.

8:32pm

It's our last session of babysitting the Flobberworms. It's almost a tender moment. I think Sylvia, my personal favourite (because she snores quietly), is crying. I myself feel a bit teary-eyed.

8:37pm

Never mind. That's just Dean eating an onion sandwich. Yuck. He better not have anything planned for afterwards.

7:23pm

DT: Hey Ginny. Are you ready to go baby-sit some Flobberworms?

Me: We don't have to do that anymore. Our detention is over.

DT: Oh… Well I guess we'll have to find something else to do…

He better not have had any onion sandwiches recently.

9:52pm

Bloody, bloody, bloody brother. Could he just keep his abnormally large nose out of other people's business? He is very lucky he is not being attacked by a Bat Bogey Hex. I just want to-

Ommm…. Channeling Positive Energy…. Ommm…

9:54pm

Me and Dean were-er… "baby-sitting the flobberworms"- in a empty hall when Ron walked in (with Harry- how embarrassing) and started ranting (in a way that would make Mollywobbles proud).

RW: I don't want to find my own sister snogging people in public! (Closely resembling a red teapot- steam and all)

Me: This was a deserted corridor before you came butting in.

DT: Come one Ginny. Let's go back to the common room. (Dean- always running away from an argument…)

Me: You go. I want a word with my "dear" brother! Right, let's get this straight once and for all. It is none of your business who I go out with or what I do with them, Ron-

RW: Yeah, it is! D'you think I want people saying I want people saying my sister's a-

Me: A what? A what, exactly? (A pineapple? A genius? A brilliant snogger? He better have been thinking the later, because anything else, and he's going to get it!)

HP: He doesn't mean anything- ( Does he ever…?)

GW: Just because he's never snogged anyone in his life, just because the best kiss he's ever had is from our Auntie Muriel-

RW: Shut your mouth! (A very, very red teapot, now)

GW: No I will not! I've seen you with Phlegm, hoping she'll kiss you on the cheek everytime you see her, it's pathetic! If you went out and did a bit of snogging done yourself, you wouldn't mind so much that everyone else does it!

RW: You don't know what you're talking about! Just because I don't actually do it in public-

Me: Been kissing Pigwidgeon then? Or have you got a picture of Auntie Muriel stashed under your pillow?

RW: You-

Ron took out his wand, and tried to hit me with some curse. Harry roughly pushed him up against the wall and shielded me. He probably needn't have bothered. With Ron's skill at hexing, he'd probably have done nothing worse than turn my eyebrows yellow.

HP: Don't be stupid- (I've told him that many times before, but he doesn't really seem to catch on)

Me: Harry's snogged Cho Chang. And Hermione snogged Viktor Krum, it's only you who acts like it's something disgusting, Ron, and that's because you've got about as much experience as a twelve year old!

And then I left.

10:00pm

I hate him. I hate him. I hate him. A lot.

10:05pm

Unh… I feel really bad about yelling at him now. I probably really hurt him. I always feel guilty after I lose my temper. I'll go talk to Hermione.

10:23pm

Hermione applauds my little outburst. She laughed, and then spent 15 minutes complaining about his stupidity.

29th October

3:32pm- In Library

On March Twenty-second, in fifteen hundred and twelve, the Kwarmi Goblins gathered in Mosklum to discuss the 176 Terms and Conditions of the Agreement of….

History of Magic Essay. So very uninteresting.

Madame Pince is getting very peeved at Jas and me for chatting.

I'm very bored. Very, very bored. I'd write a poem, but I can't think of anything that rhymes with Kwarmi Goblins.

3:34pm- Still in Library, doing stupid History of Magic Essay, sigh.

Note from Jas! Yes! Something to distract me.

Ginny,

I'm so upset that they replaced Katie. How could they? It's not like she's dead! She'll come back! She'll get better! Really! I'm so sad… (Long paragraph full of complaining)

-Jas

Jas,

I know! How unfair is that? (Safest thing to do is agree with her- when she's in these moods…) Don't think of it as 'replacing'. Think of it as 'filling in until she's better so that we don't lose to the slimy slytherins'.

Er… Any idea when Blacknose the Brisk shot the other guy?

-Ginny

3:36pm

Dean's just come in. I'll write him a note too.

Note to Dean:

Quidditch practice today! Can't wait! Weather for tomorrow's match looks good.

xox Ginny

Got a reply from Jas

Ginny,

But isn't it stupid? Harry's putting all his friends on the team, when really he should be replacing blood with blood. I deserve to be on that team!

-Jas

PS: He shot him in 1516.

Reply to Jas:

You really should be on the team! How selfish of Harry! Dean isn't that good anyway!

-Ginny

3:42pm

Ginny,

I know! I'm so excited to be on the team! Busy later tonight? I happen to love 'babysitting the flobberworms'…

xoxox Dean

Ginny,

Dean is such a git! Stealing my position! Look at him smirking there! He knows he usurped my place. He doesn't even care about Quidditch! He's just doing it to spite me!

-Jas

PS: No offense, seeing as you are going out with him and all… He must have some redeeming qualities

Reply to Dean:

I'm so happy you're on the team! I know you'll do a really great job!

Xoxoxox Ginny

PS: Sure I'll babysit some flobberworms!

Reply to Jas:

Yes- the look he has on his face is positively evil! How dare he get put on the team, just to be mean. He's quite a good snogger, actually…

-Ginny

3:50pm

From Dean:

What!

From Jas:

What!

Reply to Dean:

What?

Reply to Jas:

What?

3:54pm

Uh oh. I think I sent the wrong note to the wrong person. This could be bad…

From Dean:

I look evil? Evil? What do you mean about being put on the team to be mean? What!

-Dean

PS: I am quite good at snogging, though, aren't I?

From Jas:

I'm not on the team! Remember? You haven't been paying attention to a thing I've been saying! No one ever does! I'm invisible! You're probably laughing at me right now, thinking, "What a pathetic girl- she can't even get on the Quidditch team!"

-Jas

Me: (Stands up and packs up books) There we go! I'm done! See you all later!

This is embarrassing. Will hide under blankets for twenty years… Oh no. I can't. Quidditch practice.

4:17pm

Unh… Better go make things better…

4:45pm

Dean didn't seem too upset anyways. Quite full of himself about the kissing compliment…

Jas, on the other hand, required a truckload of Honeydukes chocolate and a whole lot of 'sincere' pep talks and apologies to cheer her up.

6:46pm

Just came back from Quidditch Practice. It was terrible. Ron has quite obviously not snogged anyone yet, and was venting his frustration on the rest of the team- Demelza ended up crying! If I was Harry, I would take him off the team, right now. He didn't save a single goal, today!

Dean had his first practice after taking Katie's spot. He seemed very pleased, and not put off in the slightest about Ron's crabbiness.

DT: Ginny! Ginny! Did you see that shot I made? Wasn't that amazing? (Proceeds to reenact Amazing Shot for the 14th time)

Me: Yes, yes. You saved lots and lots of goals today. (If only because Ron wasn't saving them. If he continues like this for the match tomorrow, he'll have to start watching his pumpkin juice. I wish he'd just go snog someone already.)

30th October

8:47am

It's breakfast. I'm really worried about the match today. Ron's bickering with Hermione is definitely not improving my mood. Dean doesn't seem put out in the slightest. In fact, he's reenacting his Amazing Shot every time he grabs a piece of toast.

DT: Check it out Ginny! He shoots! He scores! He grabs another piece of toast! Oh yeah!

Me: (Condescendingly) Wow. Amazing. Pass me the jam, please.

DT: He shoots! He scores! He grabs the jam! (Reenacts Amazing Shot for 59th time)

9:15am

Malfoy is sick- what luck! They're replacing him with Harper, who's an absolute idiot. I'll be astonished if he doesn't get on his broom backwards. We're also lucky with the weather- we've got ideal conditions!

Dean just reenacted his Amazing Shot for the 63rd time.

11:59am

We WON! I can't believe we actually won! Ron was amazing! He saved every single goal! Some of them were impossible saves- he'd hang from his broom by his big toe and knock the ball away with his fingertips!

I'm so happy I could dance!

12:03pm

Oh dear! I stepped on Arnold. Now he's flat again…
