Dear Accursed Diary,
I have finally determined who sent me that vile letter stating that a student was in "love" with me. It was Ginny Weasley. As soon as I discovered that I realized that there is no need for Veritaserum to obtain the answer of who is in "love" with me. Everyone knows that the Weasley girl only has one "good friend"... Hermione Granger. That bloody chit. How dare she insult me in such a manner as this?
I have half a mind to break into the Gryffindor common room right now and demand an answer for this ridiculousness. However, I have a plan. And it will all be put into place tomorrow in seventh years Potions class. Now all I have to do is wait... again. I used to be such an impulsive man, but with the Dark Lord one learns to hold their wand until the time is right. Now it seems like this virtue will pay off again. I will humiliate Granger in front of the entire class, take away a large amount of Gryffindor house points, and, most importantly, show her that I am not someone to be trifled with.
Until then I am going to open a bottle of Firewhisky, to chase away the nightmares.
