February 7th Oh, goodness, Valentine's Day is coming up. I don't normally think about such things, but it's been brought to my attention that Valentine's Day is one week from today. Goodness. I hadn't thought about it. So much pink, it normally makes me feel a little ill. That being said, I will, of course, be sending out Valentines. I hope to get one or two in return. |

What did I miss? |

January 18th I'm being released today. Most of the bandages are gone, and all I need to do is put some cream on the burns three times per day. All in all, I feel really lucky. Some of my friends are still in the Infirmary, healing. I'm sure I'll be right back after heading to Ravenclaw. I promised a couple of people I would bring back some sweets. Now I just need to get my hands on some sweets. |

Jan 16th - 7:12pm This morning I awoke after a horrible, horrible nightmare about the fire at Vector Manor fourteen years ago. When I woke, I was covered in second and third degree burns. I was brought to the Infirmary (still not sure who brought me up this morning, but whoever you are, thank you) and have been mostly healed by a sticky paste and quite a few rolls of bandages. I looked like a mummy most of the day. The pain killers had me sleeping for most of the day, but I'm awake now, and think I might be able to eat something for supper.
If anyone in the Infirmary wants to talk, I am here to listen. If anyone outside the Infirmary wants to come and visit me, I would love to have someone to talk to myself. |

I owl-ordered a delivery of fresh flowers to brighten Vector Manor while I am away. Hopefully the House Elves will be able to keep them fresh with charms until I arrive home at the beginning of the summer, as the gardens still need quite a bit of work. I have ordered furniture for two more bedrooms, though I believe that is where I will stop. I have furnished three of the eight bedrooms thus far, as well I have taken the master bedroom for my own. Two of the bathrooms are in working order with new fixtures, and the kitchen appliances have all been replaced and updated. I am in need of a new dining room set, and all of the paintings must be replaced. The curtains over the windows and wall-hangings, as well. Unfortunately, I have lost our Vector Ancestry Tapestry to the fire and subsequent years of neglect.
While I am thrilled that the renovation of Vector Manor is going smoothly (thanks to help from many wonderful friends) I will be glad when it is completed. It is such a daunting task, and I am not able to do the work I wish to do while I am here at school. |

Now that I'm of age, and have my parents' manor in my name, I'm staying there over the Christmas Holiday. The manor needs a lot of work, so I'll be rather busy.
Does anyone know where I can get my hands on a House Elf? |

My darling friend Narcissa,
This dress is the most beautiful dress in the whole world. Thank you dearly. I am very much looking forward to wearing it to the dance! You are truly a wonderful friend, and I am most thankful for you. I do hope that you and I will be able to have some time together at the dance to celebrate.
Yours Sincerely, Septima.
Post-Script: I decided that a note through these journals would be more immediate a response than an owl by breakfast time. |

In the spirit of inter-house unity, comradery with my fellow students, and general holiday merrymaking, I will accept the invitation from the Headmaster to attend this masquerade ball. I have read the commentary by said students about the requirement to have a date, and have come to the conclusion that attending with a person of the opposite gender is not necessarily mandatory, but falls into the realm of "normal" for such occasions.
That being said, I will plan on attending by myself, unless someone would like to go with me.
Oh, and I shall have to find a new dress. |

The anniversary of my birth is in 10 days. I will come into my inheritance on the day I turn seventeen. I will be here at the school, however, and unable to go accept it at The Ministry. Perhaps I will go over Christmas Holiday. |

Please, let the weekend last forever. These days (when the rain seems imminent) make for such lovely cuddling-under-a-blanket-by-a-fire weather. I have a very good book, and a nice, warm blanket. The only thing that might make this scenario better would be someone to cuddle with some chocolate.
OH! Xenophilius! I finished my article! Are we publishing today? |

[Private to Eli] Have you spoken with Lily yet? I think you should. Let me know if you need any more help with your preparations. I am biting the bullet this morning and writing to Sirius. Wish me luck.
I hope he respo- [/Private]
[Private to Sirius] I have decided that for our next date should you want a next date- you should teach me how to play this golf game of yours. And I will charm some of my pants into interesting designs so that I can play it properly.
That is, if you want to-
Let me know when you are free, if you want to- if you would like to go out have another date. [/Private]
[Private to Xenophilius] Have you heard back from the Headmaster about the newspaper yet? I have an idea for our first front page story. Did you see the dinosaur running around with the parrot on his shoulder?
Also, I would be good at writing Numerology Horoscopes. [/Private]
I'm rather looking forward to the Halloween Feast this year. I do so enjoy jack-o-lanterns. I have done some research into the different traditions for All Saints around the world, and it's fascinating what different cultures will do on a similar holiday around a similar time. I feel that our version of Halloween is a blending of a bunch of different cultures' versions of the holiday, and I couldn't be happier with the mish-mash of traditions.
What is your favorite Halloween tradition?

[Private] What a most peculiar turn of events. First Sirius Black, and now Ares Nott? This is so strange- Perhaps it would be best to keep my confusion to myself. Perhaps it would be best to charm this entry private. [/Private]
I am thrilled that Bellatrix is returning to the school. It will be nice to have my friend back again where I can see her. And I am very much looking forward to attending the soiree her sister has planned for her return. Now that my skin is clear once more, and I am free to go back to my dormitory, I am feeling much, much better. |

The boils are gone, and I'm free to go back to my dormitory today. I think it was the chocolate that saved me.
Looking forward to thanking you in person, -Other S |

I couldn't get the boils down by myself, so I'm in the infirmary. |

I'm not sure what to do with myself. I can't seem to concentrate on anything. I believe I re-read the same paragraph in my text a thousand times, and didn't realize it. My mind won't stop spinning around and around. I think I should take a nap, but sleep so far hasn't done much to help clear my head.
Perhaps someone out there could give me something to do? |

I'm finally beginning to feel a bit better, and
What a terrible tragedy. I didn't foresee this happening, which is rather strange considering I keep track of the events at Hogwarts in my arinthmatic calculations. Something so large and so strange and so devastating would surely have come up in the numbers. Why didn't I see it? I shall have to go back and recalculate. Something is seriously amiss with my numbers. |

In the spirit of inter-house Unity, I have accepted Mister Sirius Black's invitation to attend the inter-house Party on September 30th. I am very much looking forward to getting to know some students outside of my house, not to mention that Sirius Black is a rather good-looking fellow and I will always take up an excuse to dance the night away.
I hope that everyone else is looking forward to the party as much as I am, or has decided to fill his or her evening with something he or she enjoys dearly. |

Perhaps this party will be an opportunity for me to get out and meet people. It's funny that I've been at this school for over six years now, and yet I feel as if I only communicate with a small sampling of the student body. I think it's a shame, and would like to remedy the situation, but up until this morning I wasn't sure of how to do so.
Also, the party will give me a chance to wear a set of my mother's old dress robes. They're beautiful, and they fit me perfectly. |
