He checked his watch and...EEEP! Peeves had taken up so much time! Sigh. "Alright class, I'm afraid due to our little...visitor, time has run short on us today. The project I had in mind for our practical portion of this lesson will now be your homework, but I'm sure a number of you will still enjoy it," he explained with a smile. They should be happy about that. His original plan for this homework assignment had been an ESSAY.

"Now, before I dismiss you, please write me a small paragraph--actually, a paragraph is stretching it, perhaps just a sentence or two--explaining which deck you'd choose to use on a daily basis and why. For example, my favorite deck is the Celestial deck, because it mixes astrology with tarot card reading to give more unique results, and it's got pretty designs on each of the cards," he added. True story. They were so fun to look at! "You can find a list in your text, and since there's nearly 1000 different decks in there, I'm sure you can all find something, even if you're not a true believer in the tarot cards," he added with a chuckle.

"Homework will be posted later this afternoon on the bulletin boards. So, write your paragraph, hand it in and you're free to leave!" he said with a smile.

YAY! And now to write a paragraph about her favourite tarot deck. EASY!

My favourite tarot card deck is the Merlin Tarot card deck. I just think it's really cool how muggle tarot card reading has wound up relating to to magic in the Merlin deck. The designs are really ethereal and pretty. I think I just liked it because it was muggles making tarot cards into what they thought was a legend when really.. it's all true =] I'd use it on a daily basis because it's so subjectively interpretive and in all honesty, I think that's really what Divination is about.

And with that, she took her bag and left. It was time for some lunch.
