Orpheus' trial is the day I go back to school. I know mum won't let me go and I'm sure she's going to ship me off to school but how am I supposed to hold this all together? I might just arrive late ~~then I don't have to face them all.~~

Alright, you know what, on top of all this shit, they're holding a fucking Murder Mystery Party! ~~Phoebe how~~ Are they fucking insane? Nobody gets it, nobody understands how this feels.

I don't think I'll be on the train this year. ~~I don't want~~

Arrested at our own party! Then we find out it's for abusing Juliana! I thought it couldn't get more ridiculous and then

But it can't be true. Orpheus would never associate with those sorts of -- But then half the party left once he was carted off. Maybe to save face in the Prophet but -- I can't believe this! Orpheus how could you be that stupid?
Those people, how can they believe Orpheus murde

I can't even write that word. It's vile and filthy and I can't -- I just can't fucking believe any of this! Why would he do that, something so stupid like that, I just don’t

Those innocent people, oh god those poor people. He went to Hogwarts with them, he knew them, and they think he – they think he went in there and kil

Maybe I’m just jumping to conclusions. They’ve got it wrong. He and Juliana had a fight, things went badly, he slapped her, she more than deserved it, she was beastly and – but there's no excuse to hitting your wife! What kind of person

But which is worse? My brother the wife-beater or my brother the mur
Or my brother the murderer.

We haven't heard anything from Orpheus. I think he's in confinement or something. This must be some sort of misunderstanding. Our hearts go out to the McKinnon family and everyone they loved.

Merlin, what's happening? The world is falling apart

My parents are flipping crazy. My mother goes on about babies for Orpheus and the She-Devil and you would think all hell had broken loose. I don't ever want family dinners like this. Maybe someday when they do have children things will be different but for now I'm glad I'm not living in that house with the two of them.

I'm really excited for my grandfather's party Sunday afternoon believe it or not. It's supposed to be a fabulous day, not too warm, not too cool, bright and sunny. It's a good excuse to have a party, turning 100. It's also a good excuse for your granddaughter to have her friends over since half the Ministry will be there and other assorted guests.

~~It's also a really good thing to immerse myself in so I don't think about that letter~~

Alright, who is coming so my mother won't be too upset about being short on napkins?

The party was fun. But I'm feeling a little feverish. I think I might have come down with something ~~called anxiety~~.

Anyone want to come swimming?

I FUCKING HATE INGRID! I try to be nice to people, and I try not to get involved in all this shit that is going on and they go and stab us in the back like that. I can't fucking believe them. People are just so cruel. They deserve what's coming to them.

I've been over Smeth for years! Okay so maybe not years but it's been awhile. We resolved things between us. Or at least I finally broke down that one night and told him how I felt and it was so awfully awkward but at least things between us are a bit better. Oh god, and here Pheebs told me that they fucking sent it to him and I could just die from the embarrassment. Fuck Gryffindor.

See what happens when you are reasonable with people?

In case you couldn't tell, I'm seething. ~~And they said worse things about you lot~~

This is time for revenge, hands down. I'm not taking this sort of crap from them, even this late in the year. This means war.

Suggestions on revenge? And I've already thought of a good old fashioned panty raid but somehow it doesn't seem savage enough. I hate them, I swear I do.

I feel like my head is going to pop! If people aren't chattering away about Quidditch, or bolting down the hallways to get to practice, then I'm up to my ears in essays and studying when they are around. There's just not enough time these days. When will this all be over? I can't wait for a nice relaxing summer where I don't have to study quite as hard.

On the other hand, Ravenclaw is so going to kick some Gryffindor ass in this final. Just saying.

Honestly, I'm just at the point where I almost can't take the pressure. My stupid brother went off and married that She-Devil and that chaos has calmed down. Through it all, I feel like I neglected to study like I should have at the beginning and now I've got all this work in front of me.

On top of that, everybody's been acting really weird and I'm paranoid it's over not over something trivial like the house cup but something life and death - head girl. Rowena, I really, really, really want this. I hope Dumbledore can see that. I've just got to keep working hard. This is going to work out for me, it has to.

So presently it stands that even if my brother is marrying into Bedlam, everyone in the world is getting some action except for me. I don't think this is fair, not at all, and I don't care if I sound like I'm 12. I really just need some sweets to ponder this all over.

Phoebe doesn't really help in all of this - she has Elphias. Of course I'm jealous, I'm not inhuman! Not to sound like a brat, but I think I liked it better when we were both miserable and single, as opposed to just me. Ashlyn doesn't count because she basically hates men anyways. Then again, she's always available for a good man bashing about how entirely insufferable they are. I'm just surrounded by hopelessness!

On second thought, I'm possibly PMSing.

I think I might be the only person able to own a journal less than a day before I've already wreaked a little havoc. Sometimes things are out of our control I guess?

Charms today was pretty fabulous. Even if no one agrees with me, Professor Flitwick's lecture was genius and it made sense of the muddled text (which I normally find at least mildly helpful). I really think that interaction in the classroom is key to students reaching their fullest potential. The onset of those study at home sets touted in the last issue of the Prophet is going to make professors obsolete altogether! In my opinion, without a real classroom experience, there is so much a student is unable to learn; a book can't give you the practical usage a teacher can.

[phoebe]
Alright, so two things. Firstly, does it make me sound like a completely horrible person to say that I really REALLY want to be Head Girl next year? Because I was talking to Flitwick today after class and he said something like maybe I really had a shot, and Phoebe, I have to tell you that I'm freaking out here! Seriously, Head Girl, Phoebe, I mean of course I've been hoping but I think I might just die, not to sound like a completely over-dramatic first year or anything. BUT. I'm just saying Phoebe. I know you're a Prefect and everything but this might be my chance!!

Alright, come up to the room. I'm practically hysterical over here and I need to flip out with someone.

Oh, right, there was a second thing. Was there something at brekkie you wanted to tell me? Or was I imaging things again?
[/phoebe]

[orpheus]
So are you really going through with this? You're really going to marry that, honestly it makes me sound like an awful person to say it, but face it Orpheus she's beastly. You know her family, her brothers are certifiable nutters!
