Entry #8.
This journal-keeping assignment may be the biggest waste of space and time since Divinition but it is still my part of my many responsibilities to update it and therefore I do it.

Because I am responsible.

The Herbology essay due in tomorrow may be dull enough to put him to shame but it is still part of my academic responsibilities and thus I will complete it.

Why?

Because I am responsible.

Showering daily may evidently be optional in certain cultures, however, it is part of my personal hygiene routine and so I do it.

Oh, responsible me.

Waking up at 4.45am, earlier than cocks, for Quidditch practice may be unreasonable, uncalled for and inconsiderate, but as an integral member of the team I had to turn up on time, and I did.

Again, why?

I am responsible.

Now.

I do not trod in 37 minutes late without an apology.

I do not arrive 37 minutes late without an explanation.

I do not waddle in 37 minutes late with two muffins in hands and no broomstick.

I do not slink in 37 minutes late with hair still dripping wet and plastered to skull.

I most certainly will not call off the practice upon showing up late.

I simply cannot understand why anyone would do such a thing.

Then again, I am neither irresponsible, a pest, nor constantly late.

On that note, I shall have to sign off and see to my Herbology essay like all respectable, responsible individuals should.

M. B.

I never said that I had to be at practise at 5:30. I called you to practise. After you'd taken the care to point out my tardiness the other day, I felt it only right that you should show me exemplary punctuality. Nice job, Millicent.

As for being irresponsible? Please. Who's the Prefect here?

Me; that's who.

I am perfectly capable of maintaining hygeine and you know it, Millicent.
No-one in the Gryffindor dorms has ever complained about me.
