Dear Diary,
I'm getting more and more frantic about my O.W.L.s. Vic is helping me, when she can, but she's got a lot of other things on her mind. She's applying to work at the Ministry, and she has N.E.W.T.s, and then of course there's Teddy. Oh, Teddy. My future brother-in-law Teddy, I'll bet. Funny, since he's kind of been Cousin Teddy our whole life. But he and Vic really do love each other, she's told me, and they're already planning to get married, once he can get permission from Mum and Dad. I'm happy for her. And for Teddy. The longest relationship I had lasted four months, and she broke up with me after she decided I was too focused on my studies. Oh, I'm so sorry that my academic success is important to me, I'll make sure to completely rearrange my priorities. But I digress. Louis is trying out the romance department, too; he's got a crush on a girl in his year, Emma. I had to practically coerce him into telling me; he seems to think that because Vic and I are girls we can't really understand him. Anyway, I should probably get back to studying. I look forward to the Christmas holidays and a break from all of this work, and it's always fun and highly chaotic when our whole clan gets together.
Write you later,
Dom XOXO
