In a sky without stars... (original) (raw)

| | Sunday, September 26th, 2004 3:10 pm - Arithmancy homework for 27 September, 1974 _Margaret Scarlet McGregor_Character Number: 4Heart Number : 6Social Number: 7My Inner or Soul's Urge: This is spiritual and emotional expression more than physical. It is my heart-felt desires, my incentive, how I look at life. Here are my areas of personal satisfaction. I desire responsibility, steadfast love, a harmonious home, domesticity, and maintaining long-standing family traditions. The perfect environment for me has ease, comfort, beauty, music, and harmony. I empathize with those who, through no fault of their own, are suffering. I am sympathetic to the needs of humanity. If I knew how, I would correct all injustice as a cosmic parent or guardian would. I have a good sense of loyalty and am a natural counselor. I am artistic, kind, understanding, inclined toward conventionality but broad-minded. When my emotions aren't too involved, I am a fine judge of character. My life can be richer if I cultivate firmness and assertiveness to better balance my emotions and sense of justice, and realize that others have their own valid points of view. This is what happens when I follow the book. We get a load of nonsense to be my inner soul urge. Maybe Professor Vector wont notice.9-27-74She did notice. Dash it all. (1 fading star | Light up the sky) Monday, September 13th, 2004 11:21 pm I met a Slytherin girl today in potions named Emma. I must admit that I was wrong. Not all Slytherins are bad. I mean, she seems perfectly normal and not once did she mention bloodlines. We actually found a mutual respect for eachother based on our skill rather than who is a "pureblood" and who isn't. I hope I get to speak with her again sometime. She'd make a good Potions partner, since she obviously knows her stuff extremely well. My potion didn't turn out as well as I had hoped. It turns out it was supposed to be a deep green...and mine was more blue tinted. I know what I did wrong though. Stir clockwise 7 times...not 9. Oh well. Tomorrow is another day. (Light up the sky) Tuesday, September 7th, 2004 2:08 pm It's good to be back! I sincerely missed the cold stone halls...the fantastic portraits and paintings...the moving staircases....the shriveled look on the teachers' faces when certain individuals act up in class. I missed curling up in the warm chairs by the fireplace in the common room....and the laughter of my friends. I do believe that they are what make coming to Hogwarts worthwhile. It's good to be back.My classes aren't too bad this term. I'm actually more excited about them than anything. I've gotten used to the word mudblood again. Some first-year Slytherin girl had the nerve to fire it at me on the train last week. That’s right. A First-Year. It's not that I'm ashamed of it, or anything...but it really is a foul word, which, more than anything else, just causes tussles and skirmishes. Anyway, I didn't give her the satisfaction of the response she was trying for. Just a sardonic smile. It felt good to see her puff up like she did afterward. Who do they think they are, anyway? We all bleed red. Anyhow, I’ve pasted my doodle from the train on the following page. Just thought I’d say so in case 100 years from now someone decides to dig my journal out of a hole and read it. Huzza.( ”DoodleCollapse ) (4 fading stars | Light up the sky) Wednesday, August 25th, 2004 12:38 pm GOOD it's almost time for school to start! 6th YEAR! Only one to go after that! I've been spending the last few days at my piano, since I wont be practicing very often once I'm back at Hogwarts. I haven't learned anything new, but I've been re-working the Rachmaninoff Prelude in G#, Chopin's Waltz op. 70, and various Debussy pieces to work on my technique.I've got all of my summer homework finished. That's good, I guess. It will be nice to go back to school and see people again. (Light up the sky) Saturday, August 7th, 2004 2:55 am I hate Collin. I hate not being able to use magic out of school. I hate being the youngest. I hate it when people don't get punished for things. I hate summer. I hate being stuck with ignorant muggles. I'm in an EXTREMELY FOUL MOOD and I WANT TO GO BACK TO SCHOOL, DAMMIT!I feel better now. (1 fading star | Light up the sky) Monday, August 2nd, 2004 11:58 pm I joined werw. Finally. I should be getting a t-shirt and a few stickers and buttons by post sometime before I have to return to school. Mum finally she agreed to it, saying that it will be good for me to "see how little this issue really matters in the great scheme of life." Then again, her idea of a werwolf is what she's seen in that old film of her's...what is it called...made back in the 1930's. She doesn't understand that they're just regular people walking around like everyone else. I need to get back in touch with my school friends. My family is really starting to irk me. (Light up the sky) Wednesday, July 28th, 2004 11:11 pm My summer homework is going along fairly well. It feels good to have started on it so early so that it's not a mad scramble at the end to get it finished. I've also been playing around with arithmancy a bit. It's fun to do around here because they're all so fascinated by it....like a short profile is a big, hard, complicated thing. (Light up the sky) Monday, July 26th, 2004 8:17 pm Well, summer sure is moving slowly. It's odd to come back from such a fantastic year practicing magic and being away from your older brothers...and then coming home and being stuck with them for three months with no magic. Thankfully, I took up a subscription to The Daily Prohpet this summer so that I'm not completely out of the loop. None of my school friends have sent me any letters or anything yet, so I'm thinking I might send them something if I can find an owl.
