Tuesday

Does anyone dislike Christmas? I feel like I'm the neighbor in Deck the Halls every time I turn a corridor. Teachers are actually coming up to me, and telling me to get into the spirit. It's November! Six more days and then you can get to putting up Christmas trees. Why, those chocolate calendars haven't even started yet.

On a happier note, the Granger girl is going home for the holidays next Monday, which means Potter and Weasley will be more prone to trouble without someone to talk them out of it. I also believe that Malfoy and Potter are planning something this evening. In the trophy room. That's all I heard. But that's enough.

Later

I was out doing my rounds and I spotted Weasley, Granger, Longbottom, and Potter all running. I looked their way and stepped into another corridor, whistling. I did not want to deal with trouble making students at the moment, I'm just too tired.

Sunday

I hate Dumbledore.

He said that all the staff (and Hagrid) must get into 'the holiday spirit'. Get glasses Dumbledore! Everyone's been in the Christmas spirit since the middle of last month! But he was looking at me when he said it, but I refuse to get into it. Not since that day when I was seven. Not since…. Well, never mind. But still….

The ghosts are going to carol on Christmas Eve. Must find way to stop it.

Or avoid the Great Hall.

But somehow I don't think so.

Later

Slytherin lost another Quiddich match. Second one of the season. Well have to get a better team. Especially since Potter is the Seeker in the next match. And I beat myself up as I say it, but if Potter is as good as his father, we will have to train very hard.

Suddenly in the mood for some wine. Well go to Hogs Head, nobody stares at me there.
