Apparently Hogsmeade is to welcome a new business establishment tonight.. Wonderful.. Another outlet for drunken revelry and immorality has come to town.

One must admit though... karaoke night would be a laugh to see.. I hope we can get Harry Potter to sing "I need a hero"...

I have to condemn the vandalism, of course, due to the illegality of the action; it amounts to petty crime as opposed to political activism, but this Anti-Red has every right to claim that their governing body is not fairly and justly representing them.

Everyone has a voice, even if we don't like it, or want to listen.

Hogwarts reopens tomorrow... For the first time in 7 years I won't be hopping a train at King's Cross station. I'm not quite sure how to feel about that.

I can hardly believe the change these last three days have brought with them.. A job and a flat. Still a werewolf, of course. That's the one fact I can't change, but I've my own home now and an income. Can only hope I will not lose this job promptly after the full. Public opinion of werewolves is not high and I must imagine my employer won't be thrilled to know he's hired one. Nor his customers. Must remember to research lycanthrope labor laws... Mayhaps there's something to protect those in my position. Although anything there may was likely repealed by Umbridge's doctrine adopted in 1996 and earlier...

Of course with current ministry administration and they've been reversing, not just her statutes, but anything referring to inequality... There could be a case there for repeal.

Rather empty in here though... The walls are starkers. Seems lonely. Like they are closing in...Much my life

I've managed to lease a charming little flat in Hogsmeade. Unfortunately it comes along with it clinically white, bare walls. I'm taking donations of junk, basically, carefully used please.. I do not want your trash. Anything you've got that you want rid of just owl it to me at Belladonna Burrows.

I've already set about charming these walls into various colors, but all this emptiness... I can't handle it. It's far to symbolic.

This is why I don't write in these.
