Bloody hell that game was fantastic! I didn't think seeing a game with the higher ups would be that excited but then I suppose now I was wrong. I hate to think it's schmoozing...it's not really. Well a little but you have to do what you need to, and I need that promotion. Rent's gotten damn expensive don't you know and the rest isn't cheap either. I'm lucky to have my own damn bloody off now but I can't just sit back and hope that takes me farther, I've got to reach out for it, grab it fast and not let go.

This could be the energy drink talking but damn I feel good about my upcoming evaluations.

Kris, I'm sorry I haven't been in contact as of late but I've been trying to find myself a new flat. I refuse to live another year with such rude, ungrateful, tooth brush stealing..I don't know but mates is not the word!

I've moved in currently with my brother Carrington, but don't worry I'll find my own place soon. I'm not going to go live with my cold girlfriend, her father who "could kill", and her touchy sister. Nor am I going to the arms of my mum like some people always do.

I've had enough! Nine years is too bloody long and we aren't children anymore.

And sod off Wayne Hopkins I don't need you telling me I sound like a bird.

( Private )

Yuki.Wayne.Beer.Now.

Ok now this may sound spastic almost Yuki like and no I am not basking in myself or bragging but, bloody hell I'm nervous. Ok.....here goes....uhm..right..

I'M GOING TO BE ON THE WWN

I mean I'm going to be on talking for my department but..me..my voice on the radio!! What if it breaks, or I squeak or I do a burp talk thing??!!?! This is all nerves talking I know it and I'll do better when I go on. Not to mention Wayne is telling me horror stories...well maybe I'll take a calming potion before I get up there.

Wish me luck yeah?

Enough time has passed so I'll say this, o not ever, ever, ever be stupid enough to think you can use crazy, wild, untamed natural magic for yourself! DO YOU REALISE HOW MUCH TROUBLE IT CAUSES!!Of course you don't becasue you aren't the one running around finding tiny laces and chocolate covered bugs for dignitaries!!! Life here in my corner of the ministry is hell! Hell! And who ever in the main Muggle department branch thinks its funny to make thee paper planes fly wonky well it is NOT appreciated!It's like I'm barely an intern more like machine who's supposed to run and get things. This craziness has to have an end date.

Sorry for not being around much guys, I'll try and make it up.

And Anthony since you've gotten me into some of this trouble do you mind trying to find some Pheasant Terrine Herbette on a baguette for the International Relations Department on Friday? Or a Raspberry Lager?


I need a stiff drink and some sleeping draft.

I know everyone keeps talking about moving out. We'll as Yuki's said I've done it! Wayne, Yuki and I rented a house share. It's in a decent area of London, well at least I've been told so. The house really isn't that large, but thank god I didn't get the purple bedroom....then again I am closer to the red bathroom. Barn bloody red! Everywhere in the room! Let me tell you. If you're told it's fully furnished, check it out first or you'll get flowered bedspreads. That's the best advice I can give anyone. If anyone needs help getting down to London let me know and I'll find a away to help you out...we are giving Yuki driving lessons soon..Merlin I hate cars they are so scary.

Sorry to anyone I was supposed to meet at breakfast and lunch. I had to seem vain, because I'm really not I just don't think anyone would want to eat staring at the inside of my cheek muscle. Pomfrey says that they aren't horrible and I'm awfully lucky and I agree with her. Some of the things that have happened to other people her and not to mention what could have happened to all those outside the school, irrecoverable hexings, parallelization, I'm awfully grateful that what ever is doing this didn't take it too far.

( Private )

So does anyone have some clean sheets I can use before the house elves come to clean things?

I'll tell you moving all that dirt that got in my room was not fun, aha funny prank you guys. I had to go dump it out in the forest. Long trek so early in the morning and all.

Kris, sorry. I didn't mean to leave I just had to get something done.

So rugby has been going great yeah? I thought you've all been doing a fantastic job. It's a same we lost a few players due to...unforeseen personality changes, but we've coped. I'd even say a match between the novice players and beginners is in order. No funny stuff. Don't think I didn't see that foul, and you know who you are. No need to go calling out names I am assured you all know who I mean too. I'd like to thank Michael for his support with proper cloth count towels, it was much appreciated. It seems we only have a session or two left, I'd love to still supervise this, it's just who knows? Maybe they'll think of something else for me to do. After all there is no Hogsmeade.

By the way Kris I saw you talking to Jocelin in another journal. Do you want to go outside, I mean you could tell me if you wanted to?

Monkeys. Excuse me. Gibbons are evil.

Do not go deep in the forest with bananas.

That is all.

Alright everyone listen up. Yuki and I spent good long hours on that boat house, learn to keep it straight. That's not an order just a please since it's terrible hot outside and I'd prefer to work there as little as possible.

In better news rugby is Sunday and I need names and experience. Don't be a grouch if you get put in a lower level trusty me you'd rather be there then in a group that you can't handle.

By the way Yuki? Wayne? I have nothing to do soon, want to do some fishing?

Isn't this great. We are moving! I hope I don't get Smith or Malfoy those emotional seventh years. unbearable flat-mates. If we even share flats, the tower looks quite large. If my dorm-mates have yelling fits I'll honestly kill them. Well then I should get started. I don't have much especially with that damn thief goign around but what I do have, got to make sure its done up neat. Yuki don't forget to take your cat first and close closet, same goes for you too Susan. Wayne don't hide their things either.

Oh Kris! Do you want help moving?

As distracting as that thief is and as I don't have N.E.W.T.s to complain about, my thoughts were on the food. Breakfast, lunch and dinner.....all tropical. At first, it was appealing. Something differnet,new, fun. Now it's just too much. I myself have an extensive pallet, but too much of something is horrible. That could be said for anything in life really. Back to the point. Never have I eaten so much fruit. And was was that in the stew last night? The dessert was good. It reminds me something my friend's nanny made, She was from ....somewhere not China, not that uncommon in a large Chinese city though. That make me wonder how he is doing, he still has that nanny, I wish I could at least send owls then this wouldn't be so stressing to figure out what type of cuisine we are eating.

Since it's my flat mates birthday I'm leaving it alone to him. So if you need him he's alone, Parkinson. I suppose if anyone needs me I'll be with Wayne and Yuki.

Alright. Let's understand this people. I am not pointing fingers at anyone. Not one single person. I do though believe it was stolen and as much as I hate dislike Malfoy I doubt it was him or Parkinson. I brought that banner here in hopes to leaves it in the Hufflepuff common room on the wall, seeing as we won last year with this banner. I made it in sixth year people! It's very special. It's charmed with moving badgers and glittering words.



Just come forward. I won't hurt you, hex you nothing. Just please give it back. DON'T BURN IT EITHER! I'm asking politely. If you have any information I will reward you when we get out.

I have decided that life is quite good at the moment. Even if Wayne is going on and on and on and on about his crazy ideals. Everyone should just ignore it. He has his problems let him deal with it. I was sitting in Domestic Arts, and yes paying attention, but my mind drifted elsewhere. I noticed some people whose parents I know are comically complete opposites.

1. Promiscuous mother-virgin saint girl
2. Fat father-anorexic daughter
3. A father incredibly intelligent in Potions- offspring who are not

But some people do not disappoint. Max is very much like her parents and thats enjoyable. And Yukari is very much like her mother. Which for what ever male has to deal with her, I'm sorry. But hen who says we need to be a thing like our parents. Though it seems even when we try not to be we are. I'm not afraid to say I share some of my father's characteristics. I was curious to see if anyone else noticed these things about themselves.

Alright let me say this people;

1. I may know where that giant bunny came from but it wasn't me. And no I'm not telling you who did it. What I will say is that a very immature dou of possible alumni wanting to one up each other is the cause.

2. Yes that is Flitwick you see riding the rabbit and no I don't know where he got it from

3. Stop getting pregnant people, I could give less if you shag seeing as I'm no longer a prefect, but no more babies than the one please.

4. I can defend anyone I want it doesn't matter if I'm dating them

5. Has anyone else noticed the weird pairing of couples?

That should be about it...I think. We'll I'll say good luck to both teams for the next game let's see something entertaining.

Merlin. I hate to gossip but has anyone seen Yuki. No seriously I can't find Yuki. Not that he shrink anymore, it's just Wayne and I can't find him. We bugged some little third year to check the Ravenclaw House and he wasn't there. We even went to our old rooms and he wasn' t there. Showers? No Yuki. Justin though. With his second shower today. Yuki mate I'll give you some biscuits! Speaking off. Parkinson were you in my flat the other night? If you were I left some stale ones for you to throw up later. On the same topic, biscuits, Yuki your cat misses you. If you don't come back I'm giving it to your sister.

ATTENTION ALL PUFFS AND PUFF LOVERS!!!
The game against Slytherin is coming up. You know what that means? It is banner and paint time. I expect to she any boy or girl able to bring themselves to the old Potions room. This is the last HufflePuff game people. DO YOUR DUTY. Nigel, Max, Heidi, Malcolm, Anthony, Herbert and Tasmin are counting on us!! Any Gryffindors or Ravenclaws willing, know you are WELCOME!

Warded from Artwork

Seems as if we've all caught the creative bug. Yuki with his arts and crafts. Colin and Max with your delightful drawings. Hannah, Michael I wish I could say the same for yours'. Oh yes and we had that photography day! I heard a few people around the school knit. Yukari, and Omar right? Then some sew. Yukari again and you too right Kris? Any how, away from the artwork more to the sports. It's been getting awfully warm lately. I realise the castle is small but really, the outside is still pretty large. We had a hockey game. Why not rugby? Football? Horse shoes? I thought I saw someone suggest kick the can.
