Yeah...um. Professor Snape's going to take points off if I don't update, and he gets really pissy when he has to do that to us, so I guess here's my entry.

Caught some Hufflepuffs gossiping when I was going to the library to fetch some books for Draco, and they were saying really awful things about Millicent.

Hate nasty gossipy Hufflepuffs. Millicent is really nice and awfully smart and anyway Professor Lupin said that it's inner beauty that counts. I think he means blood, because that's inside you anyway, and Millicent's family goes back centuries! Mother says she's got a better lineage than 'that awful Parkinson girl', but I think it's just because Mother is jealous of Mrs. Parkinson because of that flower arrangement competition that Pansy's mum won. She's always going on about that, and it was years and years ago. It's sorta silly but I don't really think I can tell her that because she'd throw a wobbler and stop sending me food. Hogwarts doesn't feed us enough.

Hexed Hufflepuffs, anyway, and ran away quick before they saw it was me. Besides, everyone mistakes me for Goyle anyway. The teachers who take points for stuff like that don't go into the dungeons, and definately not the boy's dormitories, mostly because they stink. Malfoy's got the best room cause he's a prefect and his father made them give him one, but my bed in the common dorms has mold all over the sheets. It's really icky- I'm going to ask Professor Sprout in Herbology how I can get rid of it, or maybe replace it with something better smelling. Sprout awfully tetchy about killing things though. She's weird like that.

Father sent a letter by owl post. Couldn't figure what he was trying to say in it. Sent it back to him and Mother with big question mark in red on it. I'd ask Draco to help, but he can't figure out what the Hades my dad's scribbles mean
either, and he gets annoyed when I interrupt him.

This spellcheck thing is really awesome. I'll have to see if I can find a spell that does this, it would be really handy with papers and stuff..

I'm afraid you might have misunderstood me, Vincent, when I spoke of 'inner beauty'. I wasn't referring to actual, er, innards. I meant something more figurative, as in one's personality, which is generally found beyond one's outer appearance. I didn't mean it literally.

Though, there is something rather elegant about the sight of fresh scarlet blood on new fallen snow by the light of the moon . ..

. . er, I beg your pardon. It -is- the Morning After, and all. Ahem.

As I was saying, as far as Miss Bulstrode is concerned, she does indeed have quite a bit of inner beauty.

Well, her figure's beautiful too!

Are my womanly curves too much for you?

Why, Professor, you wound me so.

Millicent, your 'womanly curves' are of no consequence to me whatsoever.

No offence meant, of course. You have a great inner beauty. As Vincent has waxed sufficiently on about.

Thank you, Crabbe.

I find your blood very acceptable, too.
