Somewhere Over the Rainbow – E.Y. Harburg

Someday I'll wish upon a star
And wake up where the clouds are far behind me.
Where troubles melt like lemon drops, away above the chimney tops
That's where you'll find me

Dear Diary- June 1st 1976

Where do I even begin with this hellish year? Thank Merlin I’m about to finish my fifth year, because much longer and I fear I won’t survive.

From OWL study, which is severely tedious, to breaking apart fights between my fellow Gryffindors and my friend Severus, to my girlfriends badgering on about boys and fashion, to growing threats from you-know-who.

I only have a month until my exams, and the only thing getting me through this awful period is the thought of summer. No more study, I don’t have to be around toerags, and I can enjoy another carefree break.
