The Leaving Feast was a bit more sad than it usually is, only because so many more people were leaving for good, and I will miss everyone from Durmstrang. We shared a whole year together in the Common Room, and I learned all sorts of songs and games, even though I don't know what I'm actually saying half the time. I'll bet Ravenclaw feels similarly about the people from Beauxbatons leaving, too. Well, almost all of them! Congratulations again, Justin. It really is nice to know you'll be staying. Best of luck testing next week. I know you'll do marvellously.

I'm very much looking forward to this weekend, for several reasons. Mum, Prospero, and Ewan will be meeting me at the platform, and I finally get to see Ewan for the very first time. I can't wait to thoroughly spoil him and tell him stories. He'll be about six months old now, which is hard to believe. We'll be staying in London for a week before heading back to Gloss House. It's funny, but I do miss it there, even though it can get a little lonely at times. I can't wait to ride Onions.

But for now, it's packing and more packing. I don't ever realise how much stuff I have until it's time to stuff it all back into the trunk.
