I have a few things I need to say. First: is there a reimbursement program for uniforms ruined in class? Because I’ve ruined no less than eight. EIGHT, people. I’ve replaced the all ones I bought for the term almost twice now. EXCUSE ME? And ya know, it’s not cheap to clothe a 6’4” hulking stud like myself. No sir. It takes a lot of material to cover these manly muscles of mine. I’ll flex for you. See? Yeah, I’m a big manly man.

Second: GOSSIP MUCH? Holy Hippogriffs! I’m NOT dating KAYLA WINTERS! I mean she’s a lovely girl but I’M NOT DATING KAYLA WINTERS. I cannot stress that enough. Because you see, I like oxygen. And I think that if that rumour continues to circulate, it could get back to the person she’s actually dating, a Slytherin I know by reputation only, and then the oxygen deprivation could begin. To say nothing of it ruining my chances of making things “official” with my sort of girlfriend Aggie DeWitt, so THANK YOU, Cedric, for taking things out of context, and jumping to conclusions, but I AM NOT DATING KAYLA WINTERS!!!!

NOT DATING HER!

Merlin there seem to be a lot of rumours flying around the school about Hufflepuff Prefect Kayla Winters, alright none of them are true. She's not dating Tobi nor is she dating Plymouth. She's with one of the greatest Slytherins(in my opinion) to have attended Hogwarts in a long time, Nicholai Toussaint. As her friend, this just seems to frustrate me when there are stupid rumours like this flying around Hogwarts. It's totally unnecessary, and besides there are rumours I could spread about her from my personal knowledge however I'm above that, people are just coming up with random nonsense to make Kayla seem like something she's not. Frankly, I'm a tad disgusted with this, Kayla's an awesome girl and a brilliant Prefect (just my opinion even though I'm a Slytherin) and she just doesn't deserve to hear all this nonsense.

Seriously. Why does that insane man always pick on ME? I didn't do anything to provoke him. It's not like I broke his favorite tea pot or switched burnt pieces of parchment for his favorite tea leaves or took off half of that creepy moustache trying to perform one of his wacked out DADA spells. Like SERIOUSLY! I was on my best behavior - my parents would have been PROUD for not embarrassing the family name, but noooo. Professor Krazi is insane and should be locked up in St. Mungo's. Period.

Now let's talk Quidditch. I am the BEST beater in Hogwarts history and my friend, Robbie Harrison, is a decent Chaser. If it wasn't for me, he'd be knocked out of each game and then Ravenclaw would be screwed 'cause he's a pretty accurate shot. But enough about him. So it's game day and I put on my uniform and it RIPPED at the seams. The sleeves came apart. Now, I really don't mind showing off my muscles to the ladies but they'd get all scratched up if they weren't covered up. I blame it on faulty stitching. And then to add injury to insult, that girl named Willow FORGOT to put my name on the Ravenclaw roster. I was about ready to shove her in a locker when a nervous looking guy with glasses asked me to officiate the game. The guy was pretty cool about it and so I did it. It was a pretty awesome feeling to be calling the shots, but how in Merlin's name do you BREAK A SNITCH! Come on!

Uh, oh. I hear crazy Macaddiemacmac screaming. Tony called her old and Annie is laughing hysterically. Time to run.

AND PLYM-MAN . . . don't forget. Wednesday. Great Hall. Ravenclaw Table.

*flexes and runs*

I hate boys! Hmpf.

Okay so I am only going to say this once and once only. I am not dating Tobi Avalon!! I did not kiss Plymouth Morgan, he kissed me! And I am definitely not in love with Raiden Kururugi!! You people are going to get me into some serious trouble. I can't believe that you lot would actually listen to a first year. Things have been totally taken out of context, we all know that I am currently with Nicholai Toussaint and I am HAPPY, happy I tell you...with him. Like I would need anyone else!

Not that the other boys aren't nice guys and all but I have absolutely no interest in them whatsoever!! I think I need to stop being nice now and go back to being a meanie...I seem to stay out of trouble that way!!

Don't you think that this world needs a few less adults?

I do.

I'm tired of school! I'm sick of boys! And the next time someone asks me for a favor, they are going to get a nice kick in the shin!
Honestly, what type of boy comes up to you at the lake, tells you that he is in love with you and then ditches you when they are needed the most?! What is wrong with these kinds of people? AHH!
Let alone the fact that he was somewhat nice to me the first time we met. But then to ignore me for an entire year after that, practically insult me on one of my trips in Diagon Alley, and then show up out of nowhere with this sad excuse about, 'Oh, well, I guess I acted that way because I like you. Never really understood how that works...'. Yeah? Well neither do I! And to top it all off, he took my wand away from me when I had a panic attack and pretty much collapsed next to the lake in the snow. Lunatic. Complete disrespect too, but I'll be thankful that I actually got my wand back. Oh, and now he's vanished again. Guess I'm not worth the time and effort for them either.

I just wanna go hooooome! And forget everything that I may or may not have experienced and learned this term. I want to start with my projects again and visit some old pals of mine. Not continue to be imprisoned within the castle walls! GAH! How much more can I learn anyway? Not much. Oh, and why doesn't anyone offer me help!? (Not that I would accept it, but it would be a nice gesture.) All I ever do is sacrifice my time and energy to help everyone else. And what do I get in return? A nice kick in the mouth and a bunch of backstabbers. Thanks a lot you guys. *storms off*

Okay, why is there so much drama involved in being a Ravenclaw? I swear, these love triangles are going to kill someone. Plymouth and Copernicus both have too many fangirls to count, and Cela has the guys all over her. As for successful relationships, there's the classic Plymouth and Celandine thing, and they're like in love, right? But then what happened with the whole Celandine and Copernicus thing that sprouted some time ago? Everyone heard the stories. Copernicus couldn't just forget about that, right?! He MUST still like her. So where does HER heart lie? She can't have both! And then those other boys! The ones in the common room! I see the way they look at her. There's the one in particular, but I don't even know his name.

Why do all the boys like Celandine Toussaint? What does she have that I don't!? We're the same age. I'm prettier than her. I'm better at Quidditch AND soccer. And I can play and read music, which I'm sure would go right over her little head. Sure she's a know-it-all, but she isn't necessarily smarter... I'm a Ravenclaw, too! So if I'm so much more superior than her... what do all the boys see in her?

What's wrong with me?

I don't have anything to rant about. Not really. You know why?

Because I have a whole bunch of great friends, even if one of them did go and publish gossip about me in 'The Quill' before I even really got a chance to figure out what was going on myself. Honestly, my friends are fantastic, even if one of them did kiss me on the cheek and tried to buy me off with gifts even though I have a boyfriend now. They all really care about me and put my best interests first, even if some of them try to beat up and bully Plymmy and Cope just because I like their candy. I always have such a good time with them, even if one of them did kiss me and make me fall out of a tree for the first time ever. They are always happy to see me, even if it just because my big brother told them to watch out for me or they are hoping I have a letter for them from him. And I'm meeting so many new ones, even if they are secretly glaring at me when they think I'm not looking and making it seen like there is something wrong with me for being likeable.

So I really have no reason to rant about my friends, right?

No reason to rant about boys either, even though they are suddenly everywhere! Has anyone else noticed that, or is it just me? I mean it is great because they give me candy and I even got to test out my theories on kissing, but it's just so confusing! I really like Plymouth a whole bunch, even though it's all a little scary and that first time he kissed me because I told him he had nicer hair than Cale Newell, it wasn't really as good as it should have been... but yeah I really like him, he's nice. And he smiles big and he gives hugs and nuzzles. Except for while I was all electrocutey because of another boy. That's Cope, he's Plymmy's stepbrother you know? My chest feels all tight and I can't really get my breath much around him and he kissed me and I couldn't feel my fingers. When he smiles, it makes me blush. Why? Why does that happen when I like Plym? Is that allowed? How can you even like more than one person? I mean I knowwwww my brother had a whole bunch of girls around him all the time, and that came in handy when I was asking them about kissing (because they are all the kinds of girls that do that alot) but I feel all split and confused and scared all the time because I'm not even fourteen yet! And what happens when I want to like lots of boys? Will they have changed their minds by then and not want to like me back? What if I want to kiss people and they don't want to kiss me back? And I do, but why do I? Plymmy tastes like peppermint frogs and sometimes like cotton candy. And that time that Cope kissed me he tasted like caramel.

Kissing is almost better than candy, but so much more confusing!

And then there is homework and housepoints. Umm... actually I do kind of have a reason to rant about that. Right now Ravenclaw is in the lead in housepoints and that is so cool! And our team won the quidditch cup! Equally cool! But Hufflepuff are so close behind us, and it keeps changing every few hours and I'm a little bit worried that Ravenclaw aren't going to stay in front. And it isn't because I'm not doing my part. I have more points than anyone else in the entire school, even more points than Nico and Anna and Astrid got last term! But it sorta feels like it will all be for nothing if nobody else chips in and works hard at their finals. Hufflepuff work as a team, their whole house are chipping in, and even earning a single point is better than nothing.

That's how we won the quidditch, the team worked together and you were all sooo amazing! And I supported you! I cheered! Really loudly! But are you supporting me? Are you supporting the rest of our house? Are you working hard and studying until silly hours of the morning and taking any opportunity to earn points? Or are you coasting? Are you congratulating yourself for earning the Quidditch cup, or not getting detention?

Of course, it's really easy for me right? Because everything else is great! My friends... my feelings... you know. Perfect.

I'm not doing this just for me. I'm not doing it for just my family and their expectations of me. I'm working hard for Ravenclaw and everything I've been taught it is to be a Ravenclaw. For education, for hard work, for Professor Vindictus and Professor Lainey, for our old Headmistress Cassandra Rae, for all the professors who have done their best to help me learn new things...

... most of all I'm doing it for you, Ravenclaw. For all the eagles, so we can be proud again and fly high, not just on the quidditch pitch either.


I'm doing it for you, won't you do it for me? For us? For Ravenclaw!

Boys are jerks. Enough said >:|

*grabs a megaphone and stands on the podium*

Slytherin shall take both cups next term, so Ravenclaw best be watching their back.

*steps off the podium and walks away with the megaphone in hand*

*taps the mic* Is this on?

...Well good, because I've got something to say.

UGH! How can people be so rude?! Now, I don't think I ask for too much, but all I wanted was a nice train ride home, because I'm not coming back. So, I get a compartment with my best friend, and my boyfriend, and they go off egging each other on, yelling at each other that yes, they WILL duel.

So immature! They are thirteen/fourteen years old, I think that they're old enough to look past their differences and let me enjoy the last Hogwarts-related thing that I'll ever be able to enjoy! I don't care if they start yelling at each other as soon as I'm gone, but while I'm there, the LEAST they can do is act civilized toward each other!

UGH!

*storms off*

Yo, dizzog. This isn't much of a rant, more like a fear but...whatevs. They're practically the same thing, right? Quidditch tryouts....are scary! Like big time scary. I mean, obviously I don't have to tryout...buuuuut what if I mess up? Or worse---what if I'm dubbed the WORST QUIDDITCH CAPTAIN...ever? Oh boy, Oh boy, Oh boy! I'm nervous.

Well, here goes ABSOLUTELY EVERYTHING!

Ughhhh, so, first thing, I would just like to say... WILL ABBY WRIGHT LEAVE ME ALONE?! I mean, seriously, she askes me questions, takes pictures of me. Watches me... STALKS ME. And now she tries to steal from me.

Now everyone thinks I'm dangerous. Great.

Which reminds me. DUHHHHH! She was blatantly goes to curse me first, and I was just defending myself. Now, because of that stupid incident, I have detention every tuesday night. These match my saturday detentions quite nicely.

ANY OTHER TAKERS?!

Okay, yeah, speaking of detentions: I WILL NOT REST UNTIL BUNBUTT IS OUT OF HOGWARTS FOR GOOD! Who in the WORLD tries to kill a student with Devil's Snare for punishment?

UGH! UGH! UGH!

Now... I need to go and rememember what I was doing yesterday. Laters.

Although I'm a new student at the school, I have somethings to say too. So here I go. *Ahem*

I really wonder when this couple made of Iris Beaumont or Aaron Anderson will leave me alone. The first time I saw Beaumont was at the bookstore in Diagon Alley, when firstly SHE stared at me, and stormed out. Naturally, I wondered what was going on and I followed her, who went up to her boyfriend called Aaron Anderson. I asked what was going on and suddenly *I* was the guilty one, like I've started all these. They immediately started to dislike me; ME, the perfect Scouse; but I didn't care. I mean, will I care them? But of course I was nice to them and blah blah. And now, I'm dating with their best friend Fallon McCarthy (iknow12istooearlyiknow) but this Anderson kid hexes me from the back out of the blue. Like... Anderson, WHAT-do-you-have-with-me?! I was nice to you since the meeting, but how come I get cursed?! I swear, if it wasn't for the points' sake, you would be in detention. For your lifetime. I guess you have some problems in your little tiny brain. Learn some respect boy, or even my pity won't be able to save you next time.

Also, I noticed something odd... why is every girl flirting with any guy they find? What's wrong with hormones? I must say that I'm shocked at the girls' behaviour. Even Muggles aren't this strange, and we know that they are already abnormal.

Yeah, I have much more to say, but I also have some jobs to do, like showing Joshua Carter his place. Farewell.

I don't love Dylan Denver.

Don't.

Ranting? Psh. Pah. I've got nothing to rant about.

Or... do I?

As newly appointed Head Girl, I've got a whole set of expectations for you. Especially for Ravenclaw. Honestly. Studying isn't that difficult. Doing homework isn't the end of the world. Astronomy isn't ROCKET SCIENCE... though it does involve Science. Actually... it's more of a category or a branch of science. Like Geology... and Biology, though I assume that those subjects - er... branches of Science isn't exactly well known in the Wizarding World. But anyway. Do. Your. Work.

I do in fact bite people. More like when my little foster brother when he took my teddy bear when I was seven. But don't worry. If you don't take my teddy bear, these nice shiny rows of teeth will remain in the mouth.

OH. And boys. What is up with boys? They all seem so hormonal these days. Waltzing into bookshops and checking out every person of the opposite gender. Not saying that ALL men are like that. Only this particular one that seems quite DESPICABLE. Where did all the good ones go? If only I could clone Copernicus and Plymouth and keep them with me. Though that would bring up many questions about their origin and they might ask me if I was their mother, so maybe that's not exactly the best plan. But I still miss them. Copernicus.... you... wise guy... you. Plymouth... you.... uh.. youuu..

Why does it seem that Hogwarts is taking in such ignorant people? Today, I met a girl so rude that Lord Voldemort himself would've died upon meeting such a girl. I don't know her name. I don't WANT to know her name. Taking advantage of me and wanting me to pay for her stupid ice cream. Pay for it yourself! Have you no manners? Obviously not. Offending both me AND the nice ice cream lady. Calling me sad... YOU'RE the sad one... you... mean... BULLY. That girl must be a Slytherin. Or a Hufflepuff. Hufflepuff seems more like it. They're always troublemaking ignorant people. Except for Torin. And Garret. ONLY exceptions.

Well... maybe... Treyen Lockhart. No. Not maybe. DEFINITELY. He seems NOTHING like his sister. Though, I can't really say much, considering I don't know Kaika Lockhart well enough. But ohh... if I had a knut for every time I wanted to smash that bludger RIGHT in her FACE... I could BUY Hogwarts. Not saying that it's for sale or anything. DON'T get any ideas.

It's sooooo not for sale. Not on my watch!

So yeah. I really don't have much to rant about. Just... you better watch out. As Head Girl, I am going to be watching each and every move that you lil' ickle... people... make. I'm like a HAWK. Noooo... that's not right. I'm an EAGLE. Be SCARED. *flashes the badge in ya FAAACCE*

GOOOOOO EAAAGGLEEES!

Oh. And. No PDA or killing each other. Mmkay?

GOOOOOO EAAAGGLEEES!

Girls are scary, and they cause asthma attacks. Not really a rant... more an observation.
Has anyone seen my inhaler?

What is with these boys at Hogwarts??? They are such...such boys!!!!!! Apparently they like their girls snobby! Fine you all can go to bauxbaton!

I want to hide in a corner because everyone keeps yelling at the boys and I'm confused and I know nothing about anyone's personal lives...

But why would I even bother to get involved in their personal lives, anyway? Why would they do that with each other?

These people make no sense!! Corner time.

Lord Keith makes me hot under the collar..I'm not even wearing a collar!!!! *swoons*

Dylan Denver is a jerk. and he has a rather large ego.

I do NOT want Dylan Denver.

Do NOT.

Dude I am mighty fine. All these girls want me, and all the boys want to be me. There is only so much of me though. You all can't have me and once.

And I do NOT love Gold Laksh!

And I quizzically blink when I say this: Who the heck is Dylan Denver?


...Can I mess with his head?
