I'm still mildly depressed I didn't get the apprenticeship. ~~Fucking MacDougal~~ That means I have to go home for the hols. It's not that I don't like my family - it's just....Yule's always been stressful since I started Hogwarts. The social functions are killer and the lying gets more and more complicated the closer I get to finishing school. The "Where are you going to University?" question is bound to be persistent....even more so than it was over the summer.

It's a real pain in the arse.

I'm tempted to just tell my parents I got the apprenticeship and stay at Hogwarts. Probably shouldn't though. I have to get out of this damn castle, anyway. A change of scenery will be nice.

I'm going to stop sulking.

Exams this week.....are going to be murder.

P.S. 8 more days till freedom!!

P.P.S. Who's walking with me to Defense?

Are you kidding? There are also ermine-lined capes involved. I'm not exactly sure what we are suddenly royalty of? But I think it involves "chocolate" and "frogs." Oh! And "acid whizbees."

Perhaps we could be oh so wild and throw in some every flavour beans? I think those would go over well with the admiring throngs...

Private to Justin
I am so sorry about Harry's--being the biggest git in the world. I actually do have a box of chocolate frogs, and I would happily give them to you if you would accept my apology for getting you dragged into this, however tangentally. ...I can make up a real crown to go with it?

	I could do for all of the above, actually. [Ward to Ginny] What? I think I've missed something.... I'm not going to be randomly hexed in the corridor for some really bad joke he took seriously, am I? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

I think I can have this all arranged. I am a person who knows people. The wizarding candy mafia, I'm quite connected.

Same Ward
Okay. This is really big Justin-and-Ginny-Good-Friends-Secret time, right? Harry's not been dong well since the war ended--he has nightmares...just...well, it makes sense that he's struggling. But--he wasn't getting better and he wasn't accepting it...so I went to McGonagall to get her to help him, and now he's so furious at me...well, just look at his journal. Anyway, he made some jab about how I'm a serial flirter and tossed your name on the heap. Which now makes me a whore, according to Morag--but whatever. Anyway. You're so dear to me, and I really don't care what Morag says or what Harry says to me in his anger and fear, but...I just wanted to apologise to you, because you're my Justin, and that's that.

Oi. Forget the sweets. Let's go right for the firewhiskey, yeah?

	We'll see. If not...it's fine. We'll just--continue strolling, waving. Candying. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	If it doesn't blow over...well...we'll just buy out all of the sweet shoppe, right. Okay, I can't--I need to play the roll of cool and steady here--talking about this not blowing over is kind of--you know. Hard to think about. Anyway. Um. How are you...what happened with the apprenticeship? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Ward to Ginny condign 2008-03-19 12:52 am UTC (link)
	I'd rather not talk about the apprenticeship if...that's alright. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Ward to Justin ginnyweasley 2008-03-19 01:00 am UTC (link)
	I'm sorry... We won't talk about that. Or Harry. We'll talk about--hols? Are you off on a lovely trip or staying with your family? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I'm going home for the annual Finch-Fletchley yule social calendar. Then for news years I'm probably going with some friends to Berchtesgaden, Germany ~~to get completely wasted for a whole week.~~ Should be interesting. What about you? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Oi, that sounds ruddy brilliant! Especially Germany...I've never been! My brother Charlie has, to hunt dragons in Bavaria--it's always been on my to do list. Though...honestly, my to do list says, "Drink German beer in Germany." Eh. Why not!

Oh, just the usual Weasley reunion. I think my sister-in-law is preggers, so this might be the most horrific hols ever, fawning over the spawning. If you start to hear a dull thumping from the west? That's me, thumping my head on the table as we go into Week Two of Fleur and the First Grandchild coo-fest.

~~Harry and I were supposed to--will we?~~

Germany's great. I've been a few times. It's doubly amazing when you're not with family. Ha. Perhaps one of these days we can all go and have a pint or seven. Get that ticked off your list a.s.a.p!

But the reunion should be fun.... maybe? Family reunions tend to be a mixture of annoyance and joy all at once. In the end it's just exhausting if you ask me. ~~Fleur's bloody fit though~~ I can only imagine the incessant chatter of the new addition though. Poor you.

I think I will be taking you up on that--us, kicking around Berlin, getting nice and pissed and then finding some leiderhosen, just to keep it real.

Oh, I love my family, you know that, but--yes, it's a lot, plus we have members of the Order come...Lupin and his wife and their new baby...Harry's there ~~I hope~~, Hermione visits...it's like a circus. On top of that, my mum has been desperate for grandchildren since Charlie matriculated Hogwarts, so if Fleur really is with en enfante, she might have an aneurysm of delight.

And Fleur...is a special one. You should see her bathing ritual. Merlin's knickers.

It must be some veela thing. It's so obnoxious--she has to put on this lotion and that creme before getting in the special scented water, and she has to scrub and loofa--whatever that means--and then after she gets out, more lotions and creams perfumes and a special little towel to dry off. And trust me, she had my room during one visit and I knocked, to get a jumper? And there was bloody Fleur with that tiny towel, claming she was "covered up." I was all, Are you kidding me? I'm not one of the bloody males in the house, I am not seduced by you, put on some clothes.

She's very very nice, and she treats Bill wonderfully, but--gah!
