Zoya,

That is really funny, I wish I had been there to see that lady's face. The pictures are awesome though! I'm so happy they turned out well. Allie-pooh and Sunshine love the pictures, although they were confused at first because the pictures don't move. Wizard pictures are kind of like gifs, they are so cool.

That one is my favorite, too. Luckily I brought that photo album I had with only, like, two pictures in it. Most of them fit in the album. The other ones that didn't I hung up on my headboard.

Yes, those are the "muggles". It was so hard for me to not laugh about it. I think those people just got their parents to send them their muggle disguises, which I think is just so funny. Allie-pooh and Sunshine had to try and keep me from laughing when anyone dressed like that passed by. They gave me dirty looks. It was so great.

McGonagall said we can definitely do a dance next year and a costume contest. So awesome. I can't wait until next year.

Part of me is like dreading breaks because I'm so used to doing magic and it's so useful and ugghhhhh. Like I never have to get up to get something that's across the room because I can just use a summoning spell and it will come to me. Like hell yes this is a lazy person's dream. I'm going miss it so much. I'll have to get books to read to distract me.

I asked Professor Greengrass if muggles could take potions. She said that they could, for sure. She asked me why I wanted to know, so I told her I was just curious because I knew they couldn't make potions, but wondered if they could take them and if the magic would have an effect on them. I think she was rather pleased by my thirst for knowledge. Man, teachers are so easy to please.

I know it will be hard if I do become a professor, but by then I will be able to apparate (teleport). I can just walk down to Hogsmeade (the wizard town that is just outside the gates of Hogwarts, the Hogwarts Express lets off at Hogsmeade station) and apparate to wherever I want. I can also take someone with me, but I think muggles aren't allowed in Hogwarts, which totally sucks because I'd love for you to be able to see it. I would be able to visit you all the time though, anyway!

I will most likely get my boys some silly stuff, but probably something heartfelt as well. You know me, I can't help but be sappy. Like maybe I'll put together photo albums for them from all the pictures I've taken so far this term. I'm excited. You'll have to come shopping with me for gifts. This is going be awesome. I wonder if they are going get me gifts, too?

I hope your math homework wasn't too hard! Right now I'm writing this while taking a break from cramming for a transfiguration exam. Oh. My. God. I have to go. Albus and Scorpius just fell asleep on the floor on top of their books in front of the fire. I have to HAVE to take pictures of this.
