No fun? But that was just NOT fun at all. Sigh. Enya put her head in her hands and well did nothing. how was talking fun!? It was not! And Louisa telling her what to do really wasn't fun anymore. She felt she needed to tell the girl that. Soon! Enya turned towards Louisa to say it, but she didn't. Louisa had spoken first.

"Detention's fun Louisa. And i couldn't care less about house points" She told the girl folding her arms. True. Sticking by rules bored her, and was no fun. While she sat their talking she concluded she was going to go show Carin her dream - even if it was at the end of the lesson.

But talk? Bah. Boring. But what else could she do? There was nothing to do! Lesson's were boring. Sigh. "Fine.." She huffed. "What do you want to talk about?" She asked her best friend.

Lucy looked around to see whom could she pair up to. "Hey, i'm Lucy, i need a partner, can i join you?" she asked.

Cass looked around the room. She didn't have a partner...what was she going to do?

"I would like to share my dream", fee said as she raised her hand.

" I had a picnic with my best friends at home. It was summer and we all were enjoying the food, i ate grapes, as suddenly some creature came out of nowhere and took my friends with it as hostage. I wanted to help them but i couldnt move."
Fee shudderd as she remembered her dream. It was terrible.

She quickly turned Hey! Oh,sure, i want to be your partner. Great! And my name is Jacqueline nice to meet you.''she was so excited and shook girl's hand.

Cass had noticed that Fee just announced her dream to the class, so instead if begging someone to be her partner, she decided to copy her friend's example. she raised her hand and said "I would like to share my dream too." She took the parchment that she had written on earlier and read from it.

"nice to meet you too" she took a seat "so do you wanna start with your dream or mine?"

Patroclus exploded into laughter, Neptune was seriously hilarious!

Wiping a tear from his eye, he stretched out his hand and took back the parchment containing his dream, "Let me see.....wow Neptune you are incredible, you can read me like a book," he smiled, laughter creeping back into his features.

Breathing a sigh of reflection, then bursting into a new set of laughter, Patroclus noted Nep's wink.

"Miss Bott, are you asking me out?" He asked, his face deadpan despite the laugh at screamed with in.

Yes.. So Professor told Rae she could share, and Evelyn was just waking up, and Rae didn't come to a conclusion about what her dream means. Here we go. "Well.... Er.. Evelyn's dream has a lot to do with sheep... That means a peaceful person... It also talks about a box... So uhh.. The dream means that Evelyn is going to receive a gift, from a peaceful person.... Right?" Of course, there was a lot more to her dream. However being the kind of student that Rae has always been, this is what she got from it. It was worth a try right?

Alice raised her hand to share her dream. Perhaps Professor Reynolds could offer some settling perspective.

"Professor Reynolds, would you mind looking at my dream? I'm not really sure I am following what it means." Alice held out the piece of parchment to the Professor, not sure if he would want her to share with the whole class or not.



"I see it has snake which means someone I shouldn't trust, but I'm not sure what the other aspects of the dream symbolize."

Lucy looked at the girl not having a partner "Hi! i'm Lucy, you can join me, if you want?" she said

"Very good interpretation, Mister Lockhart," Nolan said with a grin. Man, this kid was always on fire in his class. He was so good at Divination!

Another rather...interesting dream. but a very good interpretation of it as well. "Excellent job!" Nolan complimented her with a smile.

"Since we're running short on time, I'm going to ask you to refrain, but since I already read your dream I can tell you that I personally enjoyed it and your interpretation," Nolan told Rex with a chuckle.

Elvis was awesome.

Nolan laughed. "Sounds like one of those old Muggle movies...very good work interpreting that," he told the Slytherin.

Oh my. That was...more like a nightmare. "Goodness...I really do hope that doesn't happen in real life," Nolan said.

Well DUH. No one wanted that to happen in real life! He should have mentally prepared himself better than his lesson.

Another nightmare! Nolan blinked a few times and cleared his throat. "That sure sounds quite troubling...thank you for sharing," he told her.

These kids knew what Calming Draught was, right? It sounded like some of them needed it!

Oh, a happy dream! "Yes, good interpretation! Good for Evelyn too, yes?" he said with a chuckle.

"Well, if you can't figure out what the other symbols are, you can break them down. For example, while forest may not be on the list, trees are, so you can use that as one of your symbols. Sometimes dreams may only have one or two symbols in them that you can actually interpret as well," he explained.

Just when Nolan thought all the craziness had died down, he noticed a few girls...a fair few of them, just NOW starting to partner up. Sighing and running a hand over his eyes under his glasses, he cleared his throat. "Ladies? We've moved on from the partner portion of this lesson and we're listening to people share their dreams. Please cease your interpretations and pay attention," he told them.


Ok, this was the final straw.

Nolan hopped off of his desk and crossed his arms. "Miss Mayberry, we've moved on with the lesson. Meaning you should be listening to your classmates and showing them respect rather than chatting. Two points from Ravenclaw," he told her.



OOC: Sorry if I'm making Nolan seem overly harsh, but you guys have GOT to pay attention to what I'm posting. I know for a fact I posted over two pages ago that we were wrapping things up and we'd moved on to sharing our dreams. I apologize if I didn't make things clear enough in my posts, but if it was simply a matter of you not reading my posts and paying attention, PLEASE try and do this in the future lessons. Sometimes you may need to read a few pages to catch up, but it's definitely worth it and takes away a distraction from the other students when people are chatting and RPing something we'd stopped pages ago. Also, it frustrates ME because I feel you guys are just skimming my posts...I don't post just to see myself post, you know :] *hugs*

This is a polite request to EVERYONE. Please READDD. This has happened more than a few times this lesson :[



Now stressed to the point that his back hurt due to their failure to listen to him, he took a deep breath and kindly smiled at them. Just because he was annoyed didn't mean he should be a jerk to the rest of the class.

"I think the time has come to excuse you for the day. Please pack up your things, and there is no need to turn in your interpretation -- keep them for your notes. I was keeping track of who was participating," he told them. "Homework will be posted in a few minutes, which also brings me to my next point of business."

"This semester, you'll have a term long project, and I'm sure many of you have already guessed it--we'll be keeping dream diaries this term," he told them with a grin. FINALLY they'd reached the part of the lesson he was thrilled about! "In case you haven't noticed, there's a bookcase outside with numerous dream diaries completely blank and ready to be written in...and one of the best parts is that, when you take a diary and begin to write in it, it is YOUR diary, and won't open for anyone else, except for me since I need to grade them," he explained. So, no need to worry about privacy being violated!

"More exact details will be given when I post the homework, but the gist of the assignment is this: You'll need to record THREE dreams in your diary over the course of the year. Don't interpret them, just write them down. Later in the year, we'll interpret them as part of the final. You have all year to do it, so don't fret about getting them all done at once!" he explained. "Just don't forget about them!"

"So, let's see...homework...dream diary assignment...I think that's it. See you all next lesson! I'll be in my office if you have any questions about the homework or the dream diary assignment," he added.

Danika smiled when the Professor sent a student to detention. She was starting to like him just by that, no one should be so bold, and the boy needed to learn his lesson.

Sadly, though, it was a Gryffindor she'd recently met.

The Gryffindors weren't making a great impression on her so far. Only a couple of them.

While what was being said in the class she already knew, it was still amusing to hear what people thought their dreams meant. And even more amusing to see the faces of those whose dreams were being told without their consent. Like the Slytherin girl over there.

She continued to listen, nonetheless. Until the class had apparently finished.

DIARIES ?!

WHEEEE. Callie loooved diaries. And the idea of a diary that no one else, 'sept Professor could open sounded awesomeeeee. She was super excited. Meh. She actually didn't care about getting homework if it was fun stuffs like thisss. She smiled as Professor Reynolds said they could go. She packed away her stuff and turned to Trix. "Thanks." she said smiling at the older girl before getting up and heading to the door of the classroom. "Bye professor have a good day!"

" Thanks for reading my dream interpertation" Rex told Professor Reynolfs. " I am glad you liked it" Rex said to the professor.

Enya stared at the Professor. He had taken 2 points for no reason! None at all. Only she and Louisa were talking because they had finished there work. Oh god she hated school even more now, it was just unfair. She piped up.

"Professor! We've done the work. Were only talking to pass the time" She argued. It was just unfair! He shouldn't have taken points! Sigh. She even pushed her work towards the Professor as proof.

But now they were being given homework. Diaries!? But they were just so boring! Gah! How was she to write all her dreams? She didn't want to, it was all private and all! Damn! She already hated all this. Sigh.

Standing up she shoved all her things into her bag and stormed towards the door, taking a diary with her....

occ; To be fair Enya did do all the work, and that they were only passing the time and all. And i've read all your post's

Treyen nodded, still frowning a bit. Yes, there was so much he still needed to learn. Sigh. And so much to research. Then again, he liked that, didn't he? The time, however, didn't seem to be such good friend with him.

Everything was written in his parchment, and the class was over now. But, waaaaait. DIARIES? Oh my Gilderoy! That was like super awesome! His first book! Treyen grinned, and placed everything in his bag (very messy, one must add) with all the excitement about the journal. "Wicked!" he will write his first book. For a moment there he wondered at what age did Gilderoy wrote his first book, because it would be a great coincidence if the man had also been thirteen. "Thanks for the lesson, Professor!" he said, as he stood up to get his journal.

Awesomeness. He took a black one before heading towards the stairs and leaving the tower. The color didn't give much away, black was good. He was NOT taking the pink one.

Arabella-Marie smiled and packed up her things and thought right dream diary that would be easy to keep hopefully on her way out she picked up a pink journal and put it in her bag and said "Thanks Professor for the wonderful lesson" Arabella-Marie headed towards the stairs on her way back to the common room

"Bye!" Nolan called the students who left. He then turned his attention to Enya, who was not happy about losing house points. He didn't blame her, losing points wasn't usually people's goal during the day, but still, he had his reasons.

"I believe that you finished your work," he said with a head nod. "I don't doubt that. I took the points for chatting...I announced some time ago that I was asking people to share their dreams with the class. Even if you were finished and just trying to pass the time, we had moved on with class and you should have been paying attention to the students who wanted the class to hear their dreams and their interpretations," he explained.


OOC: As Nolan said, the point loss was for chatting -- it had nothing to do with finishing the classwork or not. It's only 2 points, and you can easily earn them back by doing the homework :]

Selena packed up her stuff, stuffing everything into her messenger bag then slinging it on one shoulder. "Thanks for the lesson, professor, I'm looking forward to the assignment," Selena said with a smile, "have a nice remainder of the day," she said, waving at the professor and then leaving.

Louisa grabbed Enya from her elbow and smiled up at the Professor, "We apologize Professor, we won't do that again. Have a good day." She said and dragged her friend along with her. Yeah, she wouldn't risk Enya arguing with the teacher which would cause Ravenclaw to lose the cup by -100 points. Heh.

Keefer just shook his head in a bemused fashion. Sometimes he just couldn't believe Neptune. She was the epitome of all things Girly!girl. I hope she wasn't trying to imply that Professor Nolan smelled bad... he thought. Or maybe she, like himself, just thought that Nolan had just been through a trying end of a class period and could use some R&R.

With a final scribble in his homework planner, he packed up and headed towards the door. "Thanks for the lesson, Professor Nolan. I'm really excited for this dream diary project! See you around!" And with that, he walked back down the staircase and headed for the common room.

"Goodbye professor" Amy said as she gathered her things and headed for the door "I can't wait to start the dream journal"
